the only notable thing about this film be that it be steve mcqueen first big starring role . mcqueen talent be undeveloped and raw but refreshingly honest in this campy little sci fi horror piece . steve show himself a the anti establishment and hot rod car love actor who would become a polished icon of the film industry just five year hence . later on and mcqueen would say he hat this film and that he be the blob . but everyone have to start somewhere and the blob be cute and fresh and innocent . would that we all have stay that way . the plot be fast paced and although predictable and still an entertaining hour or so . and it really fun to see steve mcqueen before he become the king of kool ( and anita corsaut before she become andy taylor girlfriend ) . a close friend send me the dvd a while back and it a treasured addition to my steve mcqueen film collection .
