I just watched the original The Blob, starring Steve McQueen. A great movie if there ever was one. See the trailer.
Now I want to go to Phoenixville, PA, one of the sites for the film. This year’s Blobfest will be on July 8-10.
The last four lines are even more relevant during climate crisis:
Dave: They’re flying it to the Arctic.
Steve: It’s not dead, is it?
Dave: No, it’s not. Just frozen. I don’t think can be killed. But at least we’ve got it stopped.
Steve: Yeah, as long as the Arctic stays cold.
Oh no!!!

Wow!! A young Steve McQueen too! It was very clever to merely freeze the blob. Cryogenics empower remakes. The production of the blob scenes reminds me of a teenage gang of kids messing with buckets of chocolate pudding.
