Each summer, Phoenixville, PA (the filming location of the Colonial Theatre) has a 3-day event called, "Blobfest" which consists of multiple screenings of The Blob and other films, a film competition, a scream contest, a street fair, and live entertainment. There's also a live reenactment of the screaming movie patrons running through the front door of the theatre.

Steve McQueen received $3,000 for this role. He was offered a lower amount if he would accept 10% of the profits. McQueen needed money for food and rent, and he thought the film would make no money. Against its $110,000 budget, the film made $4 million dollars. It looks like he could have made $400,000!🤯

The Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) is also a classic '50s creature feature. If I remember correctly, The first sequel, Revenge of the Creature (1955), has Clint Eastwood do a comedy bit in one of first scenes. Some probably disagree, but I think The Black Scorpion (1957) is a solid mid tier creature feature, as well.

There are limits of course, and despite his boyish charm McQueen was definitely pushing them.

I went to see The Blob with my father and brother in 1958 at the Colonial Theater in Richmond, VA. We all recognized Steve Mcqueen from a weekly TV western series called Wanted Dead or Alive. This was his first movie. We didn't lock our doors or even think about it because we didn't have any crime, and nobody ever came in our house. We all liked the movie and our father found the record and bought it. I have never gotten tired of the song or watching the movie. Appreciate your reviewing The Blob.

Jack H. Harris was a film producer who often ended his movies with a question mark after "The End". Two movies he bought and distributed were Equinox (1970) made by young filmmakers who would go on to do bigger stuff like Star Wars. It's Evil Dead, before Evil Dead. Another film is Dark Star (1974) created and directed by John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon (Alien). It's a funny dark comedy that shows early ideas that would later become the movie Alien. Both would make good reactions of big filmmakers in their early college years. You can even throw in THX 1138 for George Lucas.

I was born in 1958 . The actor who was the old man with the blob on his hand was Olin Howland , who was born in 1886 . This was Steve MQueen’s first starring role . Incidentally , if Robert Ford , the man who shot Jesse James , wasn’t himself murdered in 1892 , and if he could have lived to see this film , then he would have been 97 years old when this film was released .

Between the 1958 original and the 1988 remake there was the 1971 sequel, "Beware: The Blob!" which is on YT. It's different because it's comedy-horror, and the heroes are hippies so there is some good hippy humor. In all 3 the heroes are young guys and it's interesting to see how young guys changed every 15 years.

The 1988 movie is one of the rare cases of a remake done right. Movies like "The Thing", Invaders From Mars", "The Fly", "Invasion of the Body Snatchers", and "The Mummy" also fit this category. It added much needed gore effects and shock that made it a near perfect horror movie. The YT channel GoodBadFlicks did a great review of the 1988 movie and comparison to the original.

Lucy & Ricky were the first couple to sleep in the same bed *nationally* in 1955. However the very first tv sitcom that wasn't really seen much outside of NY called Mary Kay and Johnny had the first couple to share a bed *and* show the wife pregnant in 1947. This sitcom racked up a lot of firsts. Easy to do when you are literally the first sitcom in the history of television. Mary Kay and Johnny Stearns were married in real life. That perhaps allowed folks to not get too worked up about them sharing a bed. Or working Mary Kay's pregnancy into the show. (Sorry, I Love Lucy was not the first to do that.) Steve McQueen was 27 when they filmed this. McQueen had a tv show called Wanted: Dead or Alive (1958-1961). Movies: Bullitt Magnificent Seven Great Escape The Towering Inferno The Great St. Louis Bank Robbery The Getaway Lots more as well.

The sequel has been titled both “Son of Blob,” and “Beware The Blob.” The theme song is right up there with the original “Gamera” theme. “In all my 30 years I’ve never brought anyone up here.” The Blob movies always remind me of the Bill Cosby bit, “The Chicken Heart That Ate New York.”

Healthily Air Conditioned, back in the day when theaters had ash trays built into the seats, cigarette butts all over the floor, and a dense fog of smoke if the air wasn't circulated properly.

Imagine a remake of "The Blob" today, with the cops being old Boomers complaining about these young Millennials and Zoomers making up silly stories about blobs and climate change, while the youngsters manage to use a... freeze ray phone app? Okay, I haven't figured out all the details yet. (Naturally, there would have to be a cutaway to a bunch of Gen-Xers enjoying watching the chaos unfold.)

Another good set of movies would be “Gone in 60 Seconds” . Original made in 1974 , unfortunately you probably have already seen the remake with Nicolas Cage.

As many times as I have seen this movie and killer klowns from Outer space I’m just now realizing that killer klowns from outer space is based on the blob.

The Blob scared the crap out of me as a child. It was on TV circa 1969 and it absolutely traumatized me. For years I had nightmares and was terrified of seeing this movie again. Then…in 1972 they released a sequel directed by Larry Hagman and that started it all over again. The idea came about because they were trying to come up with something that was mineral based and not a regular organic monster. It was originally titled, “The Meteor Monster” or something close to that. It made a decent amount of money on a very meager budget. You guys are the ONLY reactors I’ve seen do this film. Congrats! I’d recommend “The Car” 1977 with James Brolin.

If memory serves this film was inspired by H.P. Lovecraft Color Out of Space or something along those lines as the nameless faceless creature is right up there for Lovecraftian horror.

THANK YOU for reacting to this movie!, I remember in the 1970's we had a film projector and we got a copy of this movie and played it on the wall in my house. (16MM film I think). I love this old movie.

I love 50s creature features, grew up with MonsterVision and dozens of these movies like Them(1954) and The Giant Claw(1957)! I remember reading a story from before this movie was made about explorers on Venus or Mercury fighting mountain sized blobs that roamed the planet. The Blob remake is one of the most underrated horror movies of all time, it is brutal.

People who get taken out by the classic blob monster... are darwin award winners. I give them as much respect as those killed by chucky... ( Very little ) Now the remake.... That is awesome and after I watched it, none of my players in Dungeons & Dragons wanted to let me run slimes, molds and puddings anymore. 💀💀💀
