You can stream The Blob (1958) on Max with a subscription.

A drive-in favorite, this sci-fi classic follows teenagers Steve and his best girl, Jane, as they try to protect their hometown from a gelatinous alien life form that engulfs everything it touches. The first to discover the substance and live to tell about it, Steve and Jane witness the blob destroying an elderly man, then it growing to a terrifying size. But no one else has seen the goo, and policeman Dave refuses to believe the kids without proof.

A quiet small town becomes a nightmare when a translucent, ravenous mass begins consuming everything in its path. This mid-century terror trade-off swaps complex dialogue for pure, unadulterated dread as the gelatinous predator swallows its victims whole.
