Attack Of The 50 Foot Woman (1993)

A wealthy and beautiful heiress (Daryl Hannah) would seem to have it all. But her mean spirited father (William Windom) wants control of her money and her cheating husband (Daniel Baldwin) doesn't love her, just her wealth. She lacks the confidence to stand up on her own until she encounters an alien spaceship. A remake of the 1958 sci-fi classic and directed by Christopher Guest (BEST IN SHOW). The screenplay by Joseph Dougherty updates Mark Hanna's original screenplay with a feminist slant and the humor is intentional (which wasn't always the case with the 1958 movie) which makes the story less "campy". The feminist slant while obvious isn't heavy handed but humorously injected into the story. Well acted except for Daniel Baldwin (the least talented of the Baldwin brothers). Fans of the 1958 cult film should enjoy this one too. With Frances Fisher, Cristi Conaway and Xander Berkeley.
