The Stuff Film Review

There are certain Movies out there that I find interesting and begin to obsess over. I believe this is a common condition in the information age due to increased access to media.  I watched this real gem called "The Stuff"

It starts out with this crazy old man in a snowy mining facility.  He sees this weird bubbling white goo leaking out of the ground and tastes it. MMMM Tasty.

A few months later the goo is being Advertised and Sold all across America with a genius ad campaign that was one of my favorite parts of the film.  The Stuff is putting Ice Cream companies out of business and several owners meet on a boat to discuss hiring a ex FBI corporate spy named David "Moe" Rutherford played by Michael Moriarty who constantly reminds people "they call me Moe, they call me that because every time I get something I always want Mo." This Rutherford guy is silky smooth always saying the right things at the right time and handing out knuckle sandwiches left and right. Rutherford begins investigating The Stuff to find out what exactly it is. 

Meanwhile this boy opens the fridge late at night and sees The Stuff moving around it freaks him out. It is revealed that The Stuff is actually a living parasitic organism that is quite addictive and eventually when you eat enough of it it will eat you from the inside out and leave you looking all mutilated. The boys family is driven to madness by The Stuff and they try to force him to eat it. He flees his home just as Moe happens to be driving down the street and they join forces against The Stuff.  

I'm telling you this movie is hilarious.  The special effects are very poor but they work well enough to get the point across. The film includes all these great scenes such as:

- Hot Babes feeding the stuff to each other

-A Stuff addicted dog turning on his owner

-The little boy freaking out and destroying The Stuffs display at the supermarket

-An appearance by Paul Sorvino (from Goodfellas) who plays a military general who warns the public about the stuff.  

-This awesome dude known as Chocolate Chip Charlie who punches holes in suckas

-And Every seen with Moe is hilarious

Its cold as hell outside right now. Go buy some vanilla ice cream and some whipped cream... hell go by some shaving cream and eat it while you watch the stuff on netflix or in ten minute installments on youtube.

But be careful because with the stuff "Enough is Never Enough" 

Despite being a terrible low grade B horror film I give the stuff a 10 out of 10 on my Entertainment Rating Scale.  

Have Some laughs and watch Moe kick some ass.  Just remember that people call him Moe because every time he kicks ass, he always wants to kick Mo.
