Movie Review
well after I see the movie remake from 1980's one and review it figure I take a look at this one to see if it was good so thought it was a great movie for a old movie was not high scary but the blob was to scare you and though the whole movie and make you think not to eat jello for a whole after you see it. The Effects of movie was great they did a great job making the blob look scary and also ugly as well this movie was enough not too bored me a lot it was well played plot was played ending was ok like how it ends saying the end or is it with a big ? this could of set up to to  beware! The Blob movie which came out in 1972 possible but unsure but otherwise the blob 1958 is a fantastic movie and is the movie I would watch over and over again.

Acting
Steve McQueen best role in my view he was great in this one as he is in movies for acting I see lots of his movies and enjoy many of his movies. Acting in this was great in my view no problems at all with this one.

Classic or not
in my view it is sort of a classic Blob movie which I like it call it after this we got some more blob movies but they were not as good as this classic movie.

Final Thoughts
A very good blob movie with Steve Mcqueen that I see a great movie to watch on a Friday or Saturday night check it out if you have not yet it a lot better then other Blob movies that I see due note you may not eat Jello from a week after this one well that it have a good rest of black friday and don't go too nuts out there.
