1988. A full 30 years after the release of the original film, the world was due for it’s favorite gooey creature to get a makeover. This remake of “The Blob” does not fall short in the visual effects department or the overall quality of the film in general.

It is played straight and serious and the creature gives us some of the most memorable kill scenes in film history. The sink scene in this is worth the price of admission alone. But we get much more than that and as with John Carpenters remake of “The Thing”, this film is mostly remembered for the visuals rather than the acting or directing. Which is a shame as everything in this film is done top notch.

Join us as we wind back the years and give this gem a second look.
