Kino Lorber have dated and detailed their upcoming Blu-ray release of Bert I. Gordon's film
Village of the Giants (1965), starring Tommy Kirk, Johnny Crawford, Beau Bridges, Joy Harmon, and Robert Random. The release will be available for purchase on February 22.
Description: A small town runs into big problems when teenagers hit a growth spurt and turn into gallivanting Goliaths leading an anti-elder rebellion and terrifying anyone under seven feet tall. Featuring Hollywood teen stars Tommy Kirk, Johnny Crawford, Ronny Howard and Beau Bridges, this "fantastic and amusing tale" (Boxoffice) with "stand-out special effects" (Variety) delivers gargantuan, sexy entertainment loaded with rock 'n' roll.
Eleven year-old Genius (Howard) mixes up some super-goo with his chemistry set, turning cats and ducks into giants. When a group of wild teenagers see the results, they gobble it up too and turn into towering tyrants, challenging adults and making mayhem while the world desperately searches for an anti-teen antidote.
