Attack of the 50 Foot Woman

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman (1958) is an American sci-fi horror you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Nathan Juran and released through Allied Artists, the 66-minute film stars Allison Hayes as a wealthy heiress whose openly unfaithful husband pushes her to the edge — and whose alien encounter transforms her in ways that make the word "breakdown" feel insufficient.

She starts to grow. The metaphor is blunt, and the film commits to it without flinching. The revenge she delivers is scaled to match the damage done to her.

For 1958 B-movie territory, the premise carried a pointed edge: the monster here is made by domestic cruelty, not a laboratory. It has been cited as a cult feminist science-fiction text ever since. Stream Attack of the 50 Foot Woman online on iFILM.
