Subscribe FreeBased on an idea by Irvine H. Millgate, The Blob became an instant hit and remains so today. It stars Steve McQueen in the only film where he was ever billed as Steven. When a couple of necking teens (McQueen And Courseaut) witness a strange meteor that strikes the Earth, they soon learn that it is a ravenous glob of a red Jell-O-like subtance from outer space. While The Blob is out wolfing down unsuspecting citizens, the teens are scorned by the authorities for their imaginative story. Beware of The Blob
