Beware! The Disembodied Butt!
3 January 2003
First the background: A fragment of the blob is mysteriously kept in the freezer compartment of Godfrey Cambridge's refrigerator in his trailer home. His wife leaves it on the counter allowing it to thaw. The Blob consumes a fly, then a kitten, then Godfrey Cambridge's wife.

So here's the scene: The Blob, which now looks like about two servings of red jello, is spread out on Godfrey Cambridge's easy chair. The camera does a tight focus on the easy chair. Slowly, from the side of screen, Godfrey's butt starts to come into view -clad in garish trousers. Apparently Godfrey intends to sit down and doesn't see the red jello! More and more of his butt comes into view, eclipsing the scene, as eerie background music builds the suspense. His disembodied butt hovers inches above the red jello! And then - it suddenly settles down! And the camera cuts away to an unrelated scene, mercifully sparing the audience the carnage that must be occurring.

For fans of Godfrey Cambridge's butt who are still young at heart, Beware! The Blob is a must see movie. For all others this movie is a 1 out of 10.
