William Girdler: Blobfest 2002

"It's impossible to describe how heartwarming it was to see an entire town rally around the success of a B-movie. Granted, The Blob is no ordinary B-movie. The film is a b-movie benchmark that has entertained three generations of moviegoers. Like a Wagnerian epic, the tale will never grow old. It doesn't matter if it costs 80 cents or eight dollars, The Blob will always be worth the price of admission"
