Yeah I KNOW he doesn't have a name but it is easier then saying monster because people know what you are talking about. Frankenstein's Monster sounds better than saying Frankenstein but It is a habit I haven't been able to rid myself of.

The Blob (1958)!

A classic gem! It's every bit as fun as a movie can get.

Cheese. It's own theme song. Steve McQueen, listed on the cast as Steven McQueen. I loved every second of it, and I highly reccomend it to anyone that posts in this thread (Roderick, Return, Crimson, etc.) though I'm sure you've all already seen it.

The blob was one of the first horror films I saw and it left quite an impression on my terrified little brain. I was sure it was going to sneak through the cracks in my bedroom door and devour me from underneath my bed. Made me the man I am today:)

The first one I had seen was the 1988 version,So when I was younger I figured I didn't want to watch it(because hey I liked the remake) and I wasn't too into the classics as much as I am now. I will say that I do love this movie for good reason. I think I will watch it soon. I haven't seen it in a short while.

Curse of the Cat People

A mediocre (at best) sequel to a spectacular horror movie.

"The Blob" is actually really well-written, technically well-executed, and unusually classy for a low-budget horror flick. I think it holds up tremendously well, and it's one of those strange little films that makes me really care about its characters and their struggle. I love that movie.

Not horror, but Turner Classic played THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL last night.:D

The Leopard Man (1943)

Jacques Tourneur is one of my favorite directors. He's brilliant, and his geniousness shines in this film. Like Cat People, and most other films Val Lewton produced, this flick has got atmosphere that makes anything modern feel boring. Excellent movie, I can't say enough about it.

If you don't have the Val Lewton boxset, get it.
