The Stuff (1985)

When you think of great horror villains, an ice-cream/yoghurt substitute probably isn’t among the first to spring to mind. And yet in Larry Cohen’s, er, deliciously fun blend of horror and sci-fi, America has come under the hypnotic allure of a new snack food called simply “The Stuff”.

Initially just a tasty treat, it quickly becomes all-consuming and The Stuff becomes a hilariously gooey take-down of mass-consumerism. It’s smarter than your average horror comedy.

Directed by Larry Cohen
Starring Michael Moriarty, Andrea Marcovicci, Danny Aiello and Paul Sorvino
