Horror Vault's take

In this late-1950s creature-feature gem, a lonely dollmaker turns to forbidden science to ensure he is never without company — shrinking unsuspecting victims down to the size of playthings. His tiny prisoners must find a way to reclaim their lives from a captor who sees nothing wrong with his chilling hobby. Equal parts mad-scientist thriller and intimate survival story, the film uses its outlandish premise to explore deeply unsettling ideas about power and possession. Fans of classic B-movie horror will find plenty to savour in its imaginative miniature set-pieces.
