Directed by Bert I. Gordon

A car spins off a rain-slicked road, and a carload of drifting teenagers rolls into sleepy Hainesville, where a boy known as Genius has just cooked up a substance that makes living things grow to staggering size. The visitors steal the formula, dare one another to swallow it, and wake up thirty feet tall. From up there they set the town's rules, take the sheriff's daughter hostage, and throw themselves a dance. Bert I. Gordon turns his favorite giant-sized effects loose on the go-go generation.
