In the 1965 sci-fi comedy *Village of the Giants*, a quiet California town is turned upside down when a group of big-city teenagers stumbles upon a mysterious growth formula. The chemical, accidentally created by a local boy with a knack for science, causes animals—and soon humans—to grow to enormous sizes. As the teens revel in their newfound power, the town struggles to maintain order in the face of their towering antics.
