Plot Synopsis:

Master of the macabre Tod Browning (Freaks) created this spine-tingler about madness, murder and revenge. It stars Oscar-winning screen legend Lionel Barrymore as an escaped convict who uses a mad scientist's shrinking serum to create tiny people. He then disguises himself as a kindly old lady running a toy store, so he can secretly send his tiny assassins out to exact a terrifying revenge on the men who framed him. Special-effects genius Leonard Smith created the trick photography that Michael Weldon (The Psychotronic Encyclopedia) called "better than (that of) any other shrunken-people movie". Maureen O'Sullivan co-stars as Barrymore's innocent daughter and Frank Lawton as her devoted suitor. Rafaela Ottiano adds a note of horror as the maniacal widow of the twisted scientist. Full of menacing moments and hair-raising scenes "certain to return in nightmares" (Pauline Kael), this is truly an unforgettable horror movie classic, now stunningly remastered!
