Did you know the backyard in Honey, I Shrunk the Kids wasn’t CGI… it was REAL?! 🌱
In this clip from our latest episode of The VHS Club, we talk with Zac Brown about the insane practical sets in Honey, I Shrunk the Kids — 40-foot blades of grass, giant LEGO bricks, a massive cream-filled cookie (with real cream 🤢), and even a full-size animatronic ant.
We also compare it to that iconic moment in The Goonies when the cast first saw the pirate ship for real — and why practical effects make performances feel so much more authentic.
No green screen. No mo-cap suit. Just pure 90s movie magic.
