The Blob

The Blob is a 1958 American science fiction horror film directed by Irvin S. Yeaworth Jr. from a screenplay by Theodore Simonson and Kate Phillips, based on an idea by Irving H. Millgate. It stars Steve McQueen (in his first leading role) and Aneta Corsaut and co-stars Earl Rowe and Olin Howland.
The film concerns a carnivorous ameboid alien that crashes to Earth from outer space inside a meteorite, landing near the small communities of Phoenixville and Downingtown, PA. It envelops living beings, growing larger, becoming redder in color, and more aggressive, eventually becoming larger than a building.
