Creature from the Black Lagoon) and penned by Richard Matheson (
I Am Legend,
Stir of Echoes),
The Incredible Shrinking Man chronicles the fate of Scott Carey (Grant Williams) after he encounters a radioactive mist while on a boating trip. Carey starts shrinking slowly over a period of months.
At one point, he finds himself trapped in the basement because heâs so small that his wife Louise (Randy Stuart) canât see him or hear his faint pleas for help. And in that basement, his greatest foe is a common household spider that tries to win the crumbs of a piece of stale cake.
