"Beware of the blob, it creeps
And leaps and glides and slides
Across the floor
Right through the door
And all around the wall
A splotch, a blotch

Actually, you know what's REALLY weird? We never got a resolution to the dog subplot. A movie like this and the dog doesn't get eaten, doesn't play a role in defeating the monster, and just... Vanishes? That's bizarre. #Monsterdon
