The Blob Reviews
Really awful movie that would have been relegated to the dust bin of time if it didn't star future screen icon Steve McQueen. Brilliant in it's awfulness and horribly acted. This is the perfect drive-in movie. A chore to sit through YET giddily hokey dialog left me laughing and nostalgic at the same time. I recommend you see it...at least once.
Great to see an old movie on a big screen but this one was watchable only because of great Steve McQueen. Otherwise pales in comparison to other 50s scifi/horror classics like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Day the Earth Stood Still, etc.
loved seeing it on the big screen
I like the whole movie, we have it at home on DVD but never got to see it on the big screen
The chance to see this classic on the big screen was wonderful!
Though the film was first released in 1958 without all of the technical help of today, the story was still entertaining and had relatable characters. Its easy to see why Steve McQueen became a great star after this debut appearance on the big screen.
