I've done some searching on imdb.
The name was "Beware! The Blob"
Apparently, the 70's one was more of a comedy spin-off than anything, but a spin-off that worked like a sequel, even picked up right where the first one apparently left off (I never saw it), in terms of location...etc.
None of the same cast or crew as the original.
I only ever saw the 80's version myself. I was about 7 when it came out, 9 when I first saw it on video...I liked it. Completely unbelievable story, but yknow, still fun - and kinda creeped me out as a kid. Good effects. I remember a scene where it came up from a drainpipe and attatched itself to someones face?
Either way, it was a decent film.
I'd like to see the original and perhaps the comedy "sequel" too.
I wonder what would win between the blob and the thing in the river from creepshow...? :p
