"Terror has no shape"
Director Chuck Russell and Screenwriter Frank Darabont (Of THE MIST fame) craft the perfect remake of the silly 1960’s drive-in classic by treating the giant mass of pink stuff as one mean mothe-fracking threat. The Blob doesn’t just roll over you like a goofy piece of jello. It will attack like lightning and will peel your skin off as you scream for death. The finely crafted big budget B-movie stars Kevin Dillon and Shawnee Smith (Of Saw fame) star as the trouble teens trying to outrace the damn thing and everyone else (even kids!) play the role of cannon fodder to be digested into red pulpy bits. The disgusting special effects still stand up to this day (except a few off kilter green screen effects) and it’ll be a while before you get the image of the pulsating fleshy monster out of your head(Could the Blob be any more disgusting? Nope). All I have to say to Rob Zombie’s supposed remake is this: Fuck You.
