The Blob (1988)

Scream now while there’s still room to breathe! A gelatinous goop is on the loose and hungry for human flesh in this energetic effects extravaganza. The writer / director team behind A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, Chuck Russell and Frank Darabont, reunite to bring the ickiest, stickiest, gooiest substance in the universe back to the big screen in this slime-filled update of the ‘50s favorite.

“More violent than the original, more spectacular, more cynical, more patently commercial and more attentive to detail” – Janet Maslin, The New York Times

“Improves on the original cult classic with inventive, gracefully repulsive special effects and an agreeable post-Watergate anti-authoritarian message” – Chuck Bowen, Slant Magazine
