Seen today, THE 30 FOOT BRIDE OF CANDY ROCK is certainly an oddball kind of comedy, featuring Lou Costello in a rare role without his comedy sidekick Bud Abbott. He plays a garbage collector and eccentric inventor whose latest ruse is to turn his nagging bride into a giant-sized version; the army are called in to take care of her. This film is virtually unknown compared to the previous year's ATTACK OF THE 50 FT. WOMAN, which is the better picture in any case; the jokes here are somewhat stale and repetitive, despite Costello giving a typically enthusiastic performance.
