    The Amazing Collosal Man....

    This movie is hard to watch, if it were not for Joel and the Bots I doubt that I could get through this one. The Amazing Collosal Man is an example of the '50s hysteria through and through. Lt. Col. Glenn Manning is exposed to nuclear radiation at an atomic bomb test, and starts to grow and grow and grow. Full of horribly explained science and medical gibberish, Glenn has grown from the plutonium radiation and will keep growing until his heart explodes. Racing (well, not really racing) to find a cure, will the army be able to stop him? Joel and the bots fill out the episode with funny host segments and unusual invention exchanges.moreless
