War of the Colossal Beast (aka Revenge of the Colossal Man and The Colossal Beast) is a 1958 black-and-white science fiction film directed by Bert I. Gordon, produced by Carmel Productions, and distributed by American International Pictures. The film was released theatrically in 1958 on a double bill with Attack of the Puppet People.
It continued the storyline of the 1957 movie The Amazing Colossal Man, although it was not marketed as a direct sequel and featured a different cast. Both The Amazing Colossal Man and War of the Colossal Beast were later mocked on the television series Mystery Science Theater 3000.
