That's how you ended up watching Biodome. I mean, the poster of Attack of the 50 ft. Woman is one the most coolest things I've framed on the wall, but it's still an awful movie. And the fact that it was made 50 years ago isn't exactly an excuse for bad effects. For example North by Northwest by Hitchcock was made in 1959 and the scenes over Mt. Rushmore still make my palms sweat. If they would've made the flick according to the famous poster (The woman in the picture is about 220-225 ft. tall and she's causing havoc in a city - unlike in the actual movie where she rampages in a small town.) it would've been an instant classic in my books. Look out! It's Godzilla! No, recall! It's a giant woman wearing Ursula Andress bikini!

Pretty standard fare '50s B-Movie. The movie is a cult classic for its campy feel and it does live up to that. Of course like many of the special effects low budge movies, most of the action doesn't happen until the last few minutes of the film.

Probably more people know the poster than have seen the movie - and that is probably a good thing.

Despite what the loyal cult following would have you believe, this film is truly AWFUL! - and not in a funny, campy way either (as the die-hard trash cinema cultists would have you believe). The script explains nothing, the action and the scares are non-existent, and I have seen more impressive special-effects work done in episodes of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.
And yes, I know it's just a B Movie - believe me I have seen more of that type of film than most everyone out there. That still doesn't excuse this film from being as terrible as it is. I have seen plenty of B pictures that had smaller budgets and less scheduled shooting days and those pictures, no matter how cheap they looked, still had a lot more to offer than this lame movie.
The film's one saving grace - it's running time is only an hour!

Yes, two stars ... but it's an awesome two stars. Truly a movie so hysterically bad that it MUST be seen. Alison Hayes rules!

A silly B-grade classic that is more about the evils of marriage in the 1950s and what happens if you misbehave by playing up on your wife. Well, she turns into a 50 foot giant! You gotta laugh.

This movie really rubbed me the wrong way, for some reason. Probably it was the characters, who are all supremely unlikable, and neither the wafer thin plot nor the "effects" (and I use the term lightly here) manage to make up for that. It's not good...

It's not so bad it's good. It's just BAD.

really unintentially funny.. and only because the special effects were awfull.. im sure it was scary in 1958

Horrible to the point of laughing. This B movie is far worse than Attack of the Giant Leeches in every aspect.

This B movie is far worse than Attack of the Giant Leeches in every aspect. The effects are absolute trash (Even in consideration for the time) and the characters are yucky. There is a little charm in the performances and set design...still no dice.

This movie is cheesy, but with a title like that what do you expect? I want to see Tarantino and Rodriguez do a remake of this.

There's some kind of vaguely boorish joke about PMS and Slayer's Raining Blood gestating in my brain, but I'm not going to bother. And how the fuck does a 50 foot tall woman fit into a bedroom?
