Jack Arnold is an institution. The last few years have made Creature, Incredible Shrinking Man and Tarantula all available and I appreciate these movies even more than I did as a kid. Not only the suit is incredible, but the story as well. This is one of the movies that made Saturday Matinee monster films possible. Contrary to a lot of opinions, fifties drive-in horror had a lot going on intellectually and ethically. In fact, Jack Arnold's movies said things that mainstream cinema wouldn't dare.
