I didn't really enjoy this movie. I found the story boring. I didn't feel any real chemistry between the actresses. And how come that in movies made by lesbians there only seem to be lesbians and hardly any straight characters? Every woman Lola encounters in San Francisco is gay.
The girlfriend of Lola is really hot though.

The Blob, a review by Jimmy

Title: The Blob (1988)

Genre: Horror
Director: Chuck Russell
Rating: 18+
Length: 1h35
Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 1.85:1
Audio: English, French, Spanish and Portuguese
Subtitles: Chinese, English, French, Korean, Thai, Portuguese and Spanish

Stars:
Shawnee Smith
Donovan Leitch
Ricky Paull Goldin
Kevin Dillon
Billy Beck

Plot:
The Blob has returned in this horrific tale about a vile, malignant life-form that crashes to earth in a cozy, rural American town called Arborville. Untroubled by conscience or intellect, the Blob does only one thing - and it does it well. It eats anything and everything that moves: men, women, children. And tonight it wants to swallow Arborville whole. The original version of 'The Blob' thrilled and terrified audiences back in the 1950s. Now the oozing, gooey killer is back with a whole new high-tech look. What was once only suggested now comes to life in this visually gut-wrenching thriller in the tradition of such classic remakes as The Thing and The Fly.

Perfect of a remake well done who wasn't a big hit for some unknown reasons when it was released. The effects are perfect and a proof again that CGI isn't necessary at all when you have talents to combine miniature, matte painting and practical FX. Just watch the theatre and the sewer scenes and try to say that I'm wrong... They even have the guts to do something most movie will rarely do. Most people had seen that film so no point to write a lot about it.

The end was open for a sequel that didn't happen because of the box office faillure, but maybe it's better. Just imagine that we could have got a remake of Beware! The Blob

As I am a fan of superhero shows, I just had to buys this when I heard about it. The first episode was okay, though I am not sure yet, if this is a series I will enjoy.
