Yep, good cheesy fun. It also had Disney's Tommy Kirk.

It was directed by the great Bert I Gordon who gave us such "classics" as The Beginning Of The End, Attack Of The Puppet People, Food Of The Gods, Empire Of Ants, The Amazing Colossal Man ....Gordon seemed to have a fascination with animals or people growing and shrinking.

Beau Bridges! I forgot he was in this!

The 'Mystery Science Theatre 3000' version of this movie was pretty funny.
