	Movie Reviews: Asteroid; MST3K: The Amazing Colossal Man
		Colonel Glen Manning accidentally gets more than the minimum daily requirement of plutonium during a U.S. Army bomb test, causing him to outgrow his skivvies, his hospital room and a circus tent.
		He's bigger than a barn's broadside, but even though he takes a monster-large in Underoos, there's still plenty of room for 'bot bon mots.
		While Tom Servo taunts, "How do your chromosomes work when they're as big as stepladders?" Crow advises, "Hey, don't laugh Glen, we're on a fault line." and Joel solemnly intones, "No man is a Three Mile Island." Riff quick and carry a big schtik.

	The Biology of B-Movie Monsters
		Tiny man vs. spider is a mismatch, but one that favors the man.
		These facts were known to our ancestors, who used this aspect of scaling to gruesome effect--a common strategy during medieval sieges was to take a carcass of a horse, let it ripen for a few days in the sun, and then catapult it over the walls of the besieged town.
		The protagonist in Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman (1958) is only half the size of the Amazing Colossal Man, but she also pushes the skeletal safety factor beyond reasonable limits.

	The Amazing Colossal Man
		In true 50’s style, the army has sent Manning’s regiment (or whatever unit a lieutenant colonel commanded in 1957) to stand in trenches out in the desert while they set off an A-bomb not far away.
		You can see it coming a mile away-- before Manning can reach the downed aircraft, the bomb goes off, catching him not only out of the trench, but without his dark glasses on either.
		You just don’t recover from them, and when Manning’s fiancee, Carol (Cathy Downs, from The She-Creature and Missile to the Moon), comes to the hospital, the doctors essentially tell her as much.

	MST3K Episode 309 - The Amazing Colossal Man
		Along their journey they encounter the personification of Evil, Robin Hood, King Agememmnon (played by Sean Connery), and are chased down by a giant (the part The Amazing Colossal man claims to have played).
		It seems funny to us that a man who has based his career on magic tricks and parlor games is questioning the validity of hypnosis.
		He always played the villain in any film he was in, and his own films were always overextravagent and overlong, his longest film running 9 hours.

	Monster Laffs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		Topps/American International Pictures Inc. married the monsters and trading cards craze of the mid-sixties with this celebration of the lighter side of being a beast; creature of the night, alien or just plain ol' eternally damned.
		The fl and white cards featured scenes from movies like Konga, The Amazing Colossal Man, Invasion of the Saucer Men, Konga and The Amazing Shrinking Man with a ludicrous Laugh-In type one-liner on the bottom and a joke on the back.
		The cards were sold in 10-cent clear cello packages - 12 cards to a pack.

	The Amazing Colossal Man Detailed Movie Reviews
		Glenn Manning (Langan) runs out from his shelter to save whoever's in the plane and gets caught in the bomb blast.
		He shields his eyes, but he's badly burned over the rest of his body and loses most of his vital fluids.
		When both have been replenished, Manning starts to grow -- at the rate of 8 to 10 feet a day!
