The Blob (1958)

I have seen this film many times and still love it. I think it is one of those films that manages to transcend its obviously low budget and simple plot to create something greater than it had any right to be. It's a fast-paced film that feels like it is full of energy. And it is so 50's rock and roll that it could be Happy Days with monsters.

I first saw this film when I was a young child - before video so I had to wake up in the very early hours of the morning to catch it. I loved it then, and it continues to be a special movie for me.

9.5/10 because nothing is perfect.
