Bert Ira Gordon (born September 24, 1922) is an American film director most famous for such science fiction and horror B-movies as The Amazing Colossal Man and Village of the Giants.
Most of Gordon's work is in the idiom of giant monster films, for which he used rear-projection to create the special effects.
His nickname "Mister B.I.G." is a reference both to his initials and to his preference for directing movies featuring super-sized creatures.
