THE BLOB

1958
Science-Fiction

A seemingly minor meteor lands in a small American town. Somebody pokes at it – and THE BLOB is out!!

Steve Andrews (Steve McQueen) is out with his girlfriend when it arrives – and soon becomes the unlikely hero as the jellied attacker consumes people all over in its’ bid for world domination – or at least American…

Fun and classic 1950s sci-fi film that is the anti-thesis of some of the George Pal epics, but notable for being an early appearance by legend McQueen, beginning thirty two years of success. Remade in 1988 by Chuck Russell (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3, ERASER) with even more rewarding results with Kevin Dillon in the McQueen role.
