Question
Are there any movies out there that contain a scene where a giant woman (or a normal woman with a shrunken man) eats somebody alive?

I know of "Dude, wheres my car".

Also in both versions of "attack of the 50ft woman" no one gets eaten.

Answer
Hi Ian,

One of the following films (I'm not sure which) may contain the scene you're talking about:

1) Village of the Giants (1965) - The plot is as follows:

A young kid named Genius accidentally invents a substance that causes all animal life to grow. Genius' sister Nancy and her boyfriend Mike see the money making potential in the substance dubbed goo and plan to sell it to help solve the world's food problem. Unfortunately, a greedy young opportunist named Fred and the group of delinquents he hangs around with decide to steal the goo and use it for their own purposes. They soon change their minds and decide to eat the goo themselves and grow to gigantic proportions and decide to take over the town. They then kidnap the sheriff's daughter and later Nancy as insurance to make sure that they get what they want. It is now up to Genius and Mike to either come up with more goo to enable Mike and his friends to grow and take on Fred and his gang or to find an antidote to shrink Fred and his gang back down to size.

2) Malèna (2001), there is a scene where the young protagonist, Renato Amoroso, fantasizes about being a few inches tall and having Monica Bellucci (Malena), pick him up and take him to her bosom. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0213847/)

3) Talk to Her (2002) features a sequence in the style of early silent cinema called 'The Shrinking Lover,' where an accidentally shrunken scientist is rescued from his mother's clutches by his lover, who carries him home in her handbag. The shrunken scientist then roams his lover's body whilst she lies in bed. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0287467/)

4) The music video "Miserable" by rock group Lit features the band members performing on Anderson's body and are eventually devoured by her at the end. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJ0zlYLtwHs)
