The orginal Blob did well but for some reason it would be years for there to be a sequel. Unfortunately it was extremely bad. I mean really, really bad. I mean it would have to have been directed by an actor who for some reason was given a director's gig... oh it was. Nevermind.
Oddly though, as bad as it is, the kid in me still remembers it scaring the pants off of him. There are a couple of small scenes of pure nightmare fuel if you are young enough. Let's see, first off they have the blob eat a kitten. A kitty! And the kitty being no actor really sells that it is being eaten by a blob. Then there's the scene at the barber shop where barber pushes a head into a sink full of blob.
shudder.
That gave me nightmares for years.
So thank you Larry Hagman. You made a bad film and scared a small boy. Happy?
