Science was reckless in the 80s. And we loved it.

In this episode of The VHS Club, we’re shrinking ourselves down and revisiting Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, the Disney classic that made our backyards feel terrifying, cereal bowls feel deadly, and parents feel… wildly unqualified. Joining us for this adventure is Zac Brown, and together we dig into:

- Rick Moranis as the most chaotic wholesome dad in cinema
- Why this movie absolutely felt like an 80s video game level
- Practical effects that still slap
- Childhood trauma courtesy of ants, sprinklers, and giant blades of grass
- The pure wonder of late-80s Disney sci-fi optimism

Is it a family classic that holds up? Or just a perfectly preserved slice of VHS-era imagination? Either way, we’re pressing play and shrinking our expectations accordingly.

Zac Brown, host of The Zac Brown Show - introduces you to old friends one story at a time.
