and polished it up for the Smithsonian.

- I'm gonna fire it up.

- Great. What?

Oh, no. No. No! You're not

gonna s-start it up again?

You can't start it up again.

You were banned from using this by a

joint committee of the FD A and your wife.

Is the FD A here?

Is my wife here?

I've made up my mind. I'm gonna shrink that

Tiki Man so I can carry it with me always.

Besides, it's a point of honor.

Do you think a weekend

can take care of seven years...

of waxy emotional buildup?

You poor thing. Well, you're

on the road to recovery now.

Oh! And for the trip, I brought

along a special friend...

to aid in the healing process.

Dr. Brother Love himself,

Mr. Neil Diamond!

Get out of here! You brought

the Hot August Nights cassette?

I did! Yeah!

Oh, no!

I forgot to leave Mitch his medicine.

We've gotta go back.

- Gordon, I can see your left leg.

- Huh?

Come on over here and help me.

Let me know when we hit critical mass.

Okay, bro.

- You're at ten percent now.

- This is why I wanted the kids out of the house.

I don't want to take

any chances.

Sixty percent.

Eighty percent.

- Ninety percent.

- Come on, shrink machine. One more time.

We have critical mass.

- It worked!

- It must have.

Come on. Let's go find it.

- Magnifying glass.

- Magnifying glass.

- You see it?

- No. Start at the sides and I'll meet you in the middle.

Sounds like the machine

is revving up again.

Yeah, don't worry. There's nobody

in the house to hit the button.

Can you see it? Huh?

- What's that?

- What?

- Here it is!

- That's just a speck.

- Wait, Wayne. Is that it?

- No.

- What's that? -

Huh? - That's it!

- There it is!

- Huh?

Wow! A tiny Tiki!

Wayne, you're a genius.

You know, I always appreciated

the scientific use of that machine...

but never its

marital implications.

- Huh?

- Aw, it didn't work.

It grew back.

- What do you think went wrong?

- I don't know.

Sometimes

the induction sequence...

- Hello.

- Hello?

- Anybody here?

- Hey.

- Doesn't look like it.

- Wayne got rid of the Tiki Man. I don't believe it!

See? You say he doesn't

listen to you.

Things are getting better

already.

Okay, I'll leave it. I'll just put it right

here, and then they'll be sure to see them.

- Good.

- Okay.

Oh, listen.

The boys must be

working upstairs.

Let's go see what they do

as soon as we leave.

You shrunk us? You idiot!

- I'm sorry.

- I'll kill you!

- That hurts, Gordon! -

Ooh, does it hurt? - Yeah!

- Does that hurt you?

- That hurts!

Not as much as this!

- I can explain!

- You can explain nothing!

- Guys! Hello.

- Wives.

- Hey, where are they?

- Guys?

- We're in big trouble.

- Why? They can't find us to yell at us!

Stuart Gordon

Stuart Gordon (born August 11, 1947) is an American filmmaker, theatre director, screenwriter, and playwright. Initially recognized for his provocative and frequently controversial work in experimental theatre, Gordon is perhaps more widely known for work in film. Most of Gordon's cinematic work is in the horror genre, though he has also ventured into science fiction and film noir. Like his friend and fellow filmmaker Brian Yuzna, Gordon is a fan of H. P. 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. He also produced and directed The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit written by Ray Bradbury in 1998. 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…
