The Blob (Movie Review)

"I bet there is a house somewhere.
"It doesn't sound like a house. It sounds like a dog."

Well, without too many adjectives, this movie is a classic and it always will be. Made in 1958 when horror films where being produced like no other. Watching this movie now is definitely a mind trip, seeing how all the people acted in the town, the clothes, the cars, even the town itself. Even the creature "The Blob" was done really well especially when you think about the time this movie was made. Sure, this movie isn't that scary anymore but its still fun to see Steve McQueen go around trying to tell everyone that a monster is on the lose and no one will believe him. In fact, I've heard people tell me that this movie is considered to be the first Teenager in distress horror film, a film that is the basic to a good majority of horror films today. The movie is fairly short, but with the budget this film was on I am amazed how much the film makers accomplished. If you've got the time to watch this, watch it, its more of a funny movie now, but that's what makes this film so great that its still a good movie, a classic.
