good blobby remake
I like all the blob movies. The first one from the 50's is fun, the second from the seventies is also fun and this one is filled with great special effects and is fun.The blob" is a remake with a satellite returning with a blob that eats anything and grows huge. I didn't like the fact that u.s. military was behind the blob and the lead villian was a scientist instead of the blob. It's not needed but the overall story is a good one in spite of this. The dvd picture is pretty good too. This one should hit blu ray hopefully someday as it was a A movie with alot of money behind it. And the effects are actually better than if they used cgi overkill , which they do on too many movies these days. Kevin Dillon is a good lead in this one and the rest of the cast does a fine job too. The blob does what you'd expect here it eats people in very vivid ways and I would say effects wise; that this is one of the most successful in that regard ever. Get superglooped with this one! Non horror movie fans shouldn't bother because you don't dig the genre anyways.
