Podcasts about Blob

Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future. This week we have the incredible opportunity to sit down with THE JOE KELLY who many listeners will know from his awesome run writing X-Men and Deadpool in the 90s. We go in-depth about those runs, his deep love of Maggot, the story of how he quit Marvel and a preview of what's to come in his current era writing Spider-Man. Also in this episode: Joe has a weird birth certificate and a get out of hell free card The reveal of his favorite Spider-Man villain How Cecilia Reyes will be a hero no matter where she is Rogue loves talking about stealing Carol Danver's life Blob and Unus the Untouchable join the X-Men?! X-Villain Lucifer's secret power is matchmaking Storm is constantly using her powers to make her hair look fantastic All this plus the Untold Story of how Professor X lost the use of his legs! What does any of this mean for Joe's future? And how does it map to his own struggle with imposter syndrome? Tune in to find out! Joe Kelly is a critically acclaimed comic book writer known for his emotionally resonant storytelling and genre-defying creativity. Rising to prominence in the late 1990s with his influential run on Deadpool, Joe has since left his mark on major titles such as Daredevil, X-Men, and Spider-Man. As a founding member of the Man of Action collective, he co-created the globally popular Ben 10 and Generator Rex animated series. His work often blends humor, heart, and high stakes, with creator-owned projects like I Kill Giants—adapted into a feature film—cementing his reputation as a writer unafraid to tackle profound emotional themes through fantastical narratives.

The outer boundaries of Hammerland are in sight, but no daring escape would be complete without a blown tire at the worst possible moment; that blown tire is the 1956 Quatermass knock-off X The Unknown! Co-directors Leslie Norman and Joseph Losey bring us a tale of slow-moving space slime that terrorizes a Scottish military base. Only an American scientist and his Atomic Energy Agency liaison stand in the way of face-melting global dominance.While not a homerun like some of the other films discussed in this series, there's a good deal to like in X The Unknown--a fact that Ian gradually learns in real time, thanks to a handful of post-viewing insights and trivia provided by the ever-patient AC! Join us for a look at "The Blob before The Blob"!Note: As mentioned in the video, this review was recorded in late May--almost exactly a month ago.

The Blob (1958) & The Blob (1988) Continuing our theme of taking a deep dive into an original film and its remake, this time we're looking at a pair with exactly 30 years between them: The Blob, from 1958, and its 1988 remake. A lot had changed in those three decades, especially on the technical side, with advancements in special makeup effects definitely upping the ante on what we see on screen. But the remake also retains much of the same small-town feel and trappings of the original. With these two entries, it's interesting to see the similarities just as much as how the remake plays out as its own creature; sometimes winking at the original, but ultimately leaving its own gelatinous footprint. For those out there that love to hate on remakes, here's yet another pair that break the mold and had given us two entertaining entries. Sit back and enjoy!

It's 1964 and the Mods and Rockers are ready to tear each other apart on the sun-bleached boardwalks of Westwood-by-the-Sea. But something far more sinister is about to descend on this sleepy coastal town. What begins as a turf war explodes into an all-out survival nightmare as rival youth gangs must set aside their switchblades and scooters to fight off an invasion of flesh-mimicking Pod People. It's Quadrophenia meets The Blob meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers in this wild, genre-smashing thrill ride of rock 'n' roll rebellion, and full-blown alien terror. Part one sets the scene. But trust us… the true eldritch horror is yet to come.Starring - Torquil Neilson, Kristian Schmid, Tristan Black, Bretany Amber, Erin Dengate-Taylor, Aaron Harvie & Special Guest Star Jeff Martin as Baron Sordor.

The term “The Blob” has been used over these past five or so years to describe the endemic foreign policy mind of government of the US. Whether you are right leaning or left leaning, there is a certain conclusion that you likely share—and if you enjoy this commonly shared conclusion, it puts you in The Blob. The Blob seems to be a counterfeit to the Body. The Blob seeks to bring the earth into one mind, one spirit, one purpose—but it does this through military aggression, political subtly, and governmental overthrow. The Body seeks something eerily similar, but goes about doing it in a completely opposite way. In this episode, Eric and Nathan discuss The Blob and how God's desire is to actually use the Body.------------» Take these studies deeper and be discipled in person by Eric, Leslie, Nathan, and the team at Ellerslie in one of our upcoming discipleship programs – learn more at: https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/» Receive our free “Five Keys to Walking Through Difficulty” PDF by going to: https://ellerslie.com/subscribe/» For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/daily» If you have been blessed by Ellerslie, consider partnering with the ministry by donating at: https://ellerslie.com/donate/» Discover more resources, books, and sermons from Eric Ludy by going to: https://ellerslie.com/about-eric-ludy/

Goooooooo! In this 1958 remake, some kind of pink craziness comes from space and is hungry. We don't really know why it's doing this or what this thing is, but it is growing, and it is everywhere! Meg (Shawnee Smith) is just trying to live her life without her boyfriend dissolving. GOO! Badboy, Brian (Kevin Dillon) isn't having any luck jumping the gulch with his motorcycle. Mental GOO! Sheriff Herb Geller (Jeffrey DeMunn) has an 11:00 at night date with Fran (Candy Clark)! Can he get there? Mystery GOO! Oh, and Dr. Meddows (Joe Seneca) is going to put you in a van! You're a van person now! Van GOO! RTS does not go around poking things with sticks/ does not mess around with cosmic stuff. Keep nature in nature! Jeremy and Hazel see everyone get dissolved and immediately leave town. Good luck town, you're on your own! Anyone got a collapsible bazooka? As you watch, remember that “there's always room for JELL-O.” It might have room for you, too!

We all know the GOOD horror movie remakes; The Thing, The Fly, The Blob, etc, but what about the remakes that are a little more underappreciated? Everyone now is foolishly remaking good movies into meh/garbage films, but what about taking a solidly meh movie to begin with and giving it a loving touchup? Wes Craven's 1977 ‘The Hills Have Eyes” is a bland version of the Sawney Bean legend, but what if that was jazzed up a bit into, say, a 2006 retelling focusing on the dangers of nuclear testing in the American Southwest? Well say what if no longer, because that's what we're covering today.

Beware the Blob! – The Blob (1988) ReviewThis week on Slashers Podcast, Mikey, Ade, and Lance slide into one of the gooiest, gnarliest creature features of the '80s — Chuck Russell's The Blob (1988)! This cult classic remake of the 1958 Steve McQueen original takes everything you love about practical effects horror and cranks it to 11. From exploding bodies and melting faces to small-town paranoia and government conspiracies, we break down why The Blob deserves more recognition as one of the best horror remakes ever made.We dig into the killer special effects by Tony Gardner, discuss the strong performances from Shawnee Smith and Kevin Dillon, and dive deep into the film's anti-authoritarian themes. So grab your hazmat suit and stay out of the sewer—this episode is about to get messy.
