Answer
In 1988, Frank Darabont directed a remake of the 1958 science fiction horror classic, "The Blob." Starring Kevin Dillon and Shawnee Smith, the film follows the small town of Arborville, California, as it is besieged by a gelatinous, carnivorous extraterrestrial entity that grows and multiplies, consuming anything in its path. Darabont's reimagining of the original brought updated special effects and an intense sense of horror to the monster movie genre.
