Hi. My name's Diane.

I see you've been enjoying some of

the crumbs from the coffee cake I made.

Okay. Okay. Giant spider leg

on my shoulder!

It's okay. It's okay.

He likes you.

Just keep talking.

What can we talk about?

What can we talk about?

Let's see, uh...

You have any kids?

Silly me.

You probably have hundreds.

Ho! Oh. Whole lot better.

Thank you.

Oh, we've had such a lousy day.

You've had a pretty bad one

yourself, haven't you?

But for you...

you're used to being small.

For us, it's a completely

new experience.

For me, very scary...

although, you know, parts of it

were actually kind of nice.

- All done.

- Really.

Yeah. Last strand.

Do you think he heard what

I said about squashing him?

Oh, look.

He's going up the cabinet.

Wait. That's it. Diane,

that's our ride. Come back!

- Come back!

- Daddy, come back! We need you!

Are you sure?

That's weird.

Okay. Bye.

- They say our moms never made it.

- You're kidding.

- No.

- Okay, well, then let's just call our dads.

But they didn't leave a number.

Okay, well, just calm down.

Don't panic.

But if our moms aren't at

that place, then where are they?

So, tell me how

you do that again.

Okay, so then I just toss in some garbanzo

beans and crumble in some tortilla chips...

and I call it a Mexican salad.

That is great. I'm gonna

have to try that sometime.

The other thing, you can call

something a Chinese salad...

if you throw in some of

those mandarin oranges...

and some of those little Chinese

Chung Ku squiggly little noodles.

You are so good at those things.

Wow!

Wild child, baby

down to the bone

Come on.

This is where we split up. You're gonna

climb into the mid-range.

I'm gonna rewire the stereo

so the speaker becomes a microphone...

and when the music cuts out, you yell

into that speaker as loud as you can.

All right, I'm going in.

Good luck.

Well, I feel a little better

when I bang it out

Feel a little better

when I bang it out

Oh, no

Yeah, yeah

Not much, not long

but I need my space

- Bang, bang, Bang it out

- Ohh! Ohh.

- Bang, Bang, Bang it out, girl

- Ooh! Ohh! Ohh! Doh!

Bang, bang, bang it out

- Well, I been inside and I wanna get out

- Okay, follow this circuit.

Ohh! Thank God. A slow song.

All for the thrill of it

- I will play with you

- Come on, Jen.

Maybe there's someone else

in your heart

You don't look so good.

- You feelin' okay?

- Yeah. I'm okay.

Now, we have to get

Mitch's pills.

Remember, I left them

right by the cereal.

- Hey, there's something I want to tell you.

- What?

- There's honey on your lips

- I can't say it here. Let's go into the kitchen.

- How can I exist

- Hey! Hurry up, Wayne.

I want so much

to yell at these kids.

So, here we are.

- This is the kitchen.

- Hey, look!

Good, 'cause, you know, I really

wanted to be alone with you.

Ooh, look. Dirty fingernails.

Really?

Yeah, 'cause the truth is,

Jenny, I think you're awesome.

"Awesome"? Don't fall for it, Jenny.

He's just giving you a line.

- You do?

- Yeah.

- You think I'm awesome?

- Oh, yeah.

You're cooler

than all the other girls.

Um, so what is it

you wanted to tell me?

Nothing. Mostly I just

wanted to do this.

Wh-Wh-What is she doing?

She's too young!

She doesn't even know that boy!

- What are you doing?

- Kissing you.

Well, uh, you didn't ever ask.

- Ask what?

- Ask if I wanted to kiss you.

What are you talking about?

You just assume that

I wanted you to kiss me.

I mean, I don't even know you.

And even if I did know you and we talked

and you got to know me...

and you asked me if I wanted to kiss,

I might've been into it.

But the way you did it

was just wrong.

Well, lots of girls like that.

Well, I'm not one of them.

I don't happen to think that way.

And as far as you and I are concerned,

the party is over.

You tell him, Jenny! Ha!

Access denied!

That is one good kid you have.

And you know what?

She can take care of herself.

Okay, mike in and line out.

Maybe my pills are in here.

If I don't find my medicine soon,

something bad's gonna happen.

- Well, I'll look over here.

- I'll look over here.

Mitch looks terrible.

We've gotta find those pills.

There they are!

- Mitch! Mitch!

- Mitch! Mitch!

- Mitch, honey! M-Mitch!

- Mitch!

- Mitch, look at us! We're right here! Mitch!

- Mitch, your pills are over here!

- Mom?

- Yeah.

Oh, no! He's fainted!

Mitch!

The paralysis

could last 24 hours.

We have got to get those pills

where the kids can see them. Come on.

- Mitch! Mitch! W-What's wrong?

- What's going on?

Come on, Mitch, come on. I don't

know. Mitch just fainted.

I can't find his medicine.

What are we gonna do?

- Okay, now what are we gonna do?

- We're gonna get on the other side...

- and try to roll it that way.

- Over that way. Okay.

- Here we go. Can you get it?

- Yeah, I got it. I got it. Push!

Mitch has got a potassium

deficiency, so...

you look in the refrigerator and

find something with potassium.

Check all the labels.

- Okay, push again.

- Come on. Up.

- I haven't pushed this hard since I gave birth to Adam.

- Ohh!

Milk has vitamin "D"

and calcium.

- No potassium.

- Keep looking.

Come on, Mitch. Mitch. Come on.

- It's not gonna work.

- Oh, it's no use.

- It's gotta be up to the kids.

- What?

- Come on.

- Oh, God.

Potassium. Potassium.

Potassium. Potassium.

Bananas! Bananas have potassium!

Lots of it!

Here. Come on.

Get... Get some pieces.

Let's see if we can get him... Come on,

Mitch. Let's see if we can get him to chew.

Come on. Come on, wake up.

Here, get... get a piece.

- Come on, Mitch. - Ohh! - Oh,

no. - Give me another piece. Hurry.

- Come on, Mitch. Come on.

- Oh, please let this work.

Get another piece ready.

Get another piece. Chew.

Chew, Mitch, chew. Chew it up good.

Give me another piece. One more.

Come on, Mitch, you can do it. Oh,

Mitch, Mitch. Oh, please let this work.

- Come on, Mitch.

- Okay. Okay.

Come on, Mitch. Come on. You can

do it. Come on, Mitch, chew.

- Okay. Okay.

- Come on, Mitch.

- Mm-hmm.

- Yes! Yes! Yes!

- I-It's workin'.

- You're right.

- How'd you know bananas have potassium?

- Can't always ignore my dad's science talk.

- Hi, guys.

- Hey, Mitch. How you feeling?

A little dizzy,

but okay, I guess.

I saw Mom on the counter.

- Yeah, right.

- I... I did.

And... And she was...

she was really, really small.

Okay.

What was that?

My dad's bookshelf!

Oh, damn it!

Wayne, what's taking so long?

Ricky King!

What do you think you're doing?

Calling all kids!

Calling all kids!

Excuse me,

but I liked that song.

Now, this should hold the

current, so if I... Whoa!

I told you, the party's over.

Everybody out.

Yeah, well, maybe we're not

ready to leave.

Did you not hear her?

She said the party's over.

So why don't you leave before

you cause any more damage.

What, your dad's

stupid inventions?

His inventions are not stupid. His

shrink ray's going to the Smithsonian.

Stuart Gordon (born August 11, 1947) is an American filmmaker, theatre director, screenwriter, and playwright.

Lovecraft and has adapted several of the author's stories for the screen, including Re-Animator, From Beyond, and Dagon, as well as the Masters of Horror episode Dreams in the Witch-House. He has turned to the work of Edgar Allan Poe on two occasions, directing The Pit and the Pendulum in 1991 and The Black Cat for Masters of Horror Showtime series in 2007. His science fiction films: Robot Jox (1990), and Fortress (1992) have both become cult classics. With Brian Yuzna and writer Ed Naha he co-created Honey, I Shrunk the Kids for Disney Studios and executive produced the sequel Honey, I Blew Up the Kid. He also co-wrote Body Snatchers for Warner Brothers in 1993 and The Dentist for Trimark in 1998. He produced, co-wrote and directed the science fiction comedy Space Truckers starring Dennis Hopper in 1996.

In 2003 he turned to film noir and produced and directed King of the Ants based on the novel by Charlie Higson. This was followed by a film adaptation of David Mamet's dark play Edmond starring William H. Macy in 2006. And in 2007 he produced, co-wrote and directed Stuck starring Stephen Rea and Mena Suvari. more…
