80's Movie Weekend



Was this movie even scary? I don't know because I've never seen it nor have I ever seen the original one from the 1950's... I don't really plan on seeing either version either, but for those of you that have and want a quick flash back... in keeping with our scary movie weekends for the month of October, here is the 1988 version of "The Blob"

the trailer...



and let's watch the Blob kill this poor woman in the payphone booth...
