Intro Song[edit]

• Beware of the Blob! It creeps, and leaps, and glides and slides across the floor.

Steve Andrews[edit]

• How do you get people to protect themselves from something they don't believe in?
• Dad, it isn't vandalism! Doctor Hallen is dead, and he was killed by some sort of a monster! Now, I know because I saw it, Dad.
• [About the blob's weakness] CO2... It's cold! That's why it didn't come in the ice box after us, it can't stand cold!

Dr. T. Hallen[edit]

• [On the phone] Kate? It's Dr. Hallen, I'm still at the office... something's come up. I need you back here right away. No, you've got to come back, Kate. There's a man here with some sort of a parasite on his arm, assimilating his flesh at a frightening speed. I may have to get ahead of it and amputate. No... I don't know what it is or where it came from.
  • The long quote by Dr. Hallen about the parasite 'assimilating flesh' is sampled in Lazlo Hollyfield's song 'Bones' on The Pacer Ep album

Jane Martin[edit]

• [Hysterical after they just escaped the Blob] Oh, Steve, our parents! They think we're home in bed asleep, sound and safe.
• My name is Jane. It's just Jane.

Lieutenant Dave[edit]

• Just because some kid smacks into your wife on the turnpike doesn't make it a crime to be 17 years old.
• [On the radio to Washington] I think you should send us the biggest transport plane you have, and take this thing to the Artic or somewhere and drop it where it will never thaw.

Dialogues[edit]

Steve Andrews: Dave! Doc Hallen's been killed!

Lieutenant Dave: Doc Hallen? What happened?

Steve Andrews: It's over at his place! You've gotta come now!

Lieutenant Dave: Now wait a minute, Steve. Tell us what happened.

Steve Andrews: I'm trying to tell you – that this thing has killed the Doc!

Sgt. Jim Bert: What was it?! Out with it, kid!

Steve Andrews: Well it's kind of a... It's kind of a mass. It keeps getting bigger and bigger.

Lieutenant Dave: Come on, Steve, make sense.

Steve Andrews: I know, I know! Look, Dave, you gotta see this thing to believe what I'm telling you.

Sgt. Jim Bert: Maybe this thing you saw was a... monster?

Steve Andrews: Yeah, maybe it was. I don't know.

Lieutenant Dave: Hold on, Jim. Now what is this, Steve? A little while ago it was driving backwards, now it's monsters.

Jane Martin: He's not making it up, Dave, honest!

Steve Andrews: Dave, I'm not kidding you, I swear, come out to the Doc's. You can see it for yourself.

Sgt. Jim Bert: You're crazy if you go. Can't you see it's a gag?

Lieutenant Dave: He says Doc Hallen's dead, Jim. We've got to check it out. Let's go.

Steve Andrews: [Trying to get everybody's attention] Listen, now listen to me, everybody, this town is in danger. Now, several people have been killed already! Now we – we had to make this noise so you would listen to us, so we could warn you!

Man: If we're in trouble, where's the police?

Sgt. Jim Bert: [Sees Steve] You, boy, this time you really hung yourself.

Steve Andrews: Now, look, Sarge. Just give me a chance to talk to them, that's all.

Sgt. Jim Bert: I don't know what kind of stunt it is you're pulling here, but whatever it is, it's going to stop right now!

Officer Ritchie: Here comes Dave!

Lieutenant Dave: What's going on here, Jim? Steve!

Steve Andrews: Dave, make them listen to me. There IS a monster! We saw it again at dad's store, and it's bigger now!

Sgt. Jim Bert: Your story's gotten bigger now, kid.

Steve Andrews: Dave, look at me! Do I look like somebody's playing a practical joke? Am I laughing, or am I scared stiff?

Lieutenant Dave: He's telling the truth.
