On this episode of Remainders we watch the 1988 creature feature The Blob. Part Three of our 80s Horror Remakes Marathon, we close with the updated version of the 50s classic. Increased gore, practical effects, and big government paranoia, The Blob is a quintessential remake that maintains it’s B-movie style.
Other topics include how the original 50s version holds up, other horror movies we’re watching in October, When We Were Young festival, John Carpenter in concert, and reappraisal for late-stage John Carpenter movies Vampires and Ghosts of Mars.
