A 'meteor' crashes near a mountain resort town carrying an apopalyptic payload that threatens not just the town, but the world.

A superior remake of the original starring Shawnee Smith and a baby-faced Keven Dillon. It's got a nice Eighties pessimistic edge to it. The movie replaces the 'just how stupid do you have to be to get eaten by this thing' blob with an horrific predator th... read more
View all The Blob reviews
In a tiny California town, high school students Brian (Kevin Dillon), Meg (Shawnee Smith) and Paul (Donovan Leitch) discover a strange, gelatinous substance that melts the flesh of any living creatures in its path. The deadly substance gets into the town's sewer system, where it begins growing uncontrollably, occasionally emerging to feast on unsuspecting townspeople. A military clean-up crew is sent to eliminate the menace, but it may end up doing more harm than good.

Terror Blurbs! Part II (An Ever-Expanding List) (100 movies items)

"Plot: Small town America is beset by an amorphous menace with some sinister origins. A remake of the classic 50's flick of the same name updates the material without ever betraying its B-movie roots. Armed with a bigger budget than flicks of its kind usually get, the audience is treated to a breezy, thrill-ride packed with a panoply of physical effects that dazzle to this very day. Though it reflects the growing distrust of governing bodies at the time, it remains a light, sometimes humorous, "

" Date: 10/20/2021 Viewed: Blu-Ray (Scream Factory) Re-Watch Note: Seeing that I watched the original Blob movie earlier this month, I decided to rewatch the 1988 remake. The remake of The Blob is still a great movie in my opinion. The film does an excellent job of sticking true to the original Blob while still adding its own touch. The Blob in this version is darker and more violent than the original. You have plenty of graphic violence, similar to the 1980s remake of The Fly and The Thing, "
