Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
What would the average sensible American do if he encountered a pulsing ball of protoplasm from outer space? That's right: he'd poke it with a stick. Thus begins the endearingly earnest and silly tale of The Blob. Young Steve McQueen takes on his first leading role as, um, Steve, a spunky teenager with plenty of heart. Steve sees the blob kill the local doc, but darn it, none of the town's adults will believe him! Yup, it's up to the teens to save the day! Steve and his trusty girlfriend Jane break their curfews(!) and head off into the night to find the Blob and warn the town. The Blob is a completely enjoyable watch from start to finish, offering the triple pleasures of 1950s morals, gee-whiz acting, and a whole lotta extras running around and screaming. The special effects, though primitive, certainly get the job done, and it is still a treat to watch the Blob ooze its way to its next meal. You may notice that the theme song is surprisingly bouncy for a horror flick ("Beware of the Blob! It creeps, and leaps, and glides and slides across the floor"). It was written by Hal David and a fresh young composer by the name of Burt Bacharach. --Ali Davis

Can anyone explain why this movie is $29.99 for a new copy? I mean this is an old movie. All the other old classics are around $15.00 or less new. It's an excellent movie but way overpriced for an old movie. I would like to purchase it but it's to expensive. I would give the movie 4 to 5 stars but 1/4 of a star on the price.

One star? Not even that! I would love to review the product, however, I have yet to receive my order that was scheduled to arrive in November. When I inquired about delivery, I was dismayed to learn that Amazon refuses any responsibility for orders, however, they would send my complaint forward to the vendor. I received notice and an apology from the vendor, Andrew Shadgett, that my order was shipped and that I would have it "very soon." That was December 13, 2008. In my estimation, "very soon" ...

There are a few movies that I would consider very priceless and classic to the creature flick genre, the first and foremost being The Creature From The Black Lagoon and possibly Attack of the Giant Leeches. But The Blob is special in it's own way, not just because it is a classic. What this gave birth to was the sub genre of creature flicks that featured a pathetically stupid antagonist, in this case a gigantic gelatinous pile of goo. This is, in some ways, a science fiction flick too, because The Blob ... Read More

"The Blob" is an excellent sci-fi horror movie. Admittedly, its special effects aren't in the league of today's horror movies. But it doesn't matter. This movie has a great story. It's not so much about the monster as it is about a group of teenagers, led by Steve McQueen, trying to convince their hometown that a monster has invaded it. Its deliberate pacing, by today's standards, nevertheless builds to nerve-tingling suspense. Steve McQueen turns in an outstanding performance ... Read More
Rating: -
This a classic horror/sci-fi film of the 1950's that stars Steve McQueen as the hero who tries to save the town from a blobby monster. One of my favorite scenes is when the blob starts to attack the movie theater. I just love the look of this film, because it took place in the 50's. If you love classic monster films, then you'll love THE BLOB!!!

85,000-ton cruise ship, which is scheduled to enter service in 2008, will be
named Queen Victoria. Based in Southampton, England, the Cunard Queen Victoria will be
the second largest Cunard Queen ever built. Together with the current flagship,
Queen Elizabeth 2, and Queen Mary 2, the biggest passenger liner ever, the
Cunard fleet will include three Queens for the first time – truly the most
famous ocean liners in the world.

Queen Victoria will enter service in the company’s 165th anniversary and will
operate cruises to and from Southampton to the Mediterranean, the Canaries,
Northern Europe, the Caribbean, and South America. The 1,968-passenger vessel
will feature a covered wraparound promenade deck, a forward-facing observation
lounge, a large Lido pool with a retractable magrodome, and 10 of the12
passenger decks will be served by exterior glass-walled lifts. Like QE2 and QM2,
the liner will have a Queens Grill, offering single-seating gourmet dining.
There will also be a unique Colonial Restaurant on Deck 11 with spectacular
panoramic views.

accommodations, large standard outside cabins (170 square feet) and a high

The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British
tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red
ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and
she will have a British Captain and Officers.
In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design
teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.
Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near
Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically
advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000
vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally
ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company
Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid
and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery in 2006.
Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria. The
lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.
No cruise schedules have yet been
announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to
her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008. |
