In today's generation, many horror movies and villains scare children and teens. It could be Michael Myers and the Halloween film series, Dracula, maybe even Pennywise from IT. However, back in the '50s, it was The Blob.
No, this "gooey" thing wasn't a human, but it ate humans like appetizers, and that's pretty scary on its own.
The film starred Steve McQueen (credited as Steven McQueen) and Aneta Corsaut (known for her role as Helen Crump on The Andy Griffith Show. The budget was only $110,000, and the film made $4 million!
