By the way, when The Blob was actually being filmed in January of `88 Heather was still alive (just), thats why i like watching this movie because its like i`m bringing Heather back to life when i do. For the first 3 weeks of principal photography from January 12th up to February 1st Heather was still alive, whenever Chuck Russell shouted "action" during those first 3 weeks of filming Heather was still alive, as i said, thats what makes this movie magical for me more than anything else. Oh Heather...Heather...come back to me Heather, come back to me.jervaise brooke hamsternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-19214085536855139742011-05-16T20:30:06.735-07:002011-05-16T20:30:06.735-07:00"really cute" ! ? ! ?, at the time of fi..."really cute" ! ? ! ?, at the time of filming at the age of 17 that bird was one of the most stunningly gorgeous birds of all-time ! ! !.jervaise brooke hamsternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-7404070878003992432011-05-16T13:11:44.093-07:002011-05-16T13:11:44.093-07:00Yeah, Shawnee Smith was really cute on this film, ...Yeah, Shawnee Smith was really cute on this film, she still looks great today I think. <br /><br />Thanks for the comments J.D.Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-88399479284134823642011-05-16T12:40:36.890-07:002011-05-16T12:40:36.890-07:00Love this film!

Normally, I can't stand remakes of classics but they got this one right. And good call on the practical effects of this film. Nowadays, it would be mostly CGI and probably done badly, too. I'm glad Rob Zombie backed off on doing a remake. I'm sure he would've done a fine job but it really doesn't need to be remade.<br /><br />Another fine review. I really enjoyed what you had to say!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164105442273577128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-47718894486510181162011-05-13T13:56:06.362-07:002011-05-13T13:56:06.362-07:00I want to see the sequel to the original The Blob,...I want to see the sequel to the original The Blob, I wonder if its any good.Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8293273378239831747.post-71251762882103669942011-05-13T12:59:17.635-07:002011-05-13T12:59:17.635-07:00I love this movie; I also love the song Brave new ...I love this movie; I also love the song Brave new love by the band ALIEN thats plays at the end credits. I actually prefer this version than the original, but then again Steve Mcqueen playing a teenager when he was clearly 40 years old was pretty damn fun.Manuel Marrerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05341967701127338133noreply@blogger.com
