“See a female colossus… her mountainous torso, skyscraper limbs, giant desires!”
The year was 1958, and the big schlocko summer B-movie was “Attack of the 50-Foot Woman,” about this wife who grows to enormous size and goes after her cheating husband. It was not a true story.
Fast-forward exactly half a century to 2008, and what I gather must be a remake of that movie, judging from the photo below. But unlike all those other stupid movie remakes I complain about, the time could be right for this one.
For women movie-goers it offers a tale of empowerment, social justice and vengeance against a pig husband. For guys, it offers, well, a hot Amazonian chick in a bikini and stiletto heels. Where are the drive-in movies when we really need them?

Ooooh my. I’m suddenly inspired to sing an uplifting song!
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.
Josh Groban

- Posted by BandageI saw the picture the other day and I didn´t like the woman. Although I am pretty tall as well (just kidding)
- Posted by armstrongflUh…she is a model of what?
Not much to look at IMHO.
- Posted by cthings6′5″? where does she sleep? Just curious…
- Posted by Diana NgilaUmm… I don’t think so. The scale is all wrong for someone only 6′5″, there is no step for the blonde woman to be climbing, and there’s something funky about the background.
