Question
I had someone ask me about an old Vincent Price Movie where he shrinks some teenagers.  Is there a movie like that?

Answer
Vicki...

I'm a Vincent Price fan, and I don't know of any movie where he shrunk teenagers... BUT... there was a TV show on Saturday mornings in the 70's called the "Krofft Supershow." On that show, there was a segment called "Dr. Shrinker." And this mad scientist shrunk some teenagers whose boat crashed on his "mysterious island." The guy who played Dr Shrinker was Jay Robinson, who sounds remarkably like Vincent Price, and did seem to model his performance on those old Vincent Price mad scientist movies... maybe that's what that person was thinking of... try that and see... let me  know, and I'll keep looking...

Hope this helps,

I am a devout fan of horror films, from the Universal classics to the schlock of the 50`s, on through the 70`s to the splatter era, and straight up to "28 Days Later." Tom Savini films are an extra treat. Ask me about "Knightriders" if you don`t believe me. Anyone else own a copy of that classic?
