Innerspace

Director
Joe Dante
Certificate
PG
Running Time
119 mins

Test pilot Tuck Pendleton (Dennis Quaid) drunkenly volunteers for a top secret miniaturisation project that will see him trundle through the bloodstream of a bunny rabbit. But before this can happen, the lab is raided by bad guys and Tuck finds himself injected into the bottom of Jack Putter (Martin Short) to keep him safe.  Now our hero tries to teach this hypochondriac supermarket clerk how to be a man from the inside. Innerspace isn’t vintage Joe Dante, like Gremlins or the fabulous Matinee, but in taking its cue from Fantastic Voyage it does have much fun inside the human body – like having a villain disposed of by ulcerous stomach acid.

Go here for more on this free outdoor screening, which is part of At-Bristol’s Festival of What If.
