Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

phanthinga The Stuff is a horror comedy movie in the same vain with The Blob but much more funny and cheesy.THE STUFF came out of nowhere became the world most favorite dessert everybody love it although where or how it made such a mystery so a food company hire a industrial spies known as David 'Mo' Rutherford played our main character.David is a very likable guy and the ways he take advantage of others is so awesome.I really can watch this movie with him alone and probably never get bored when THE STUFF not around.In the end it open for a sequel but sadly never been made.I will make sure check out other Larry Cohen movie Q from 1982 that also starring Michael Moriarty soon

Anonymous Andy (Minus_The_Beer) Construction workers find a throbbing puddle of white goo on the ground and decide to take a taste (as one does). Turns out, this stuff is good -- really good! The sweet mystery treat is soon taking the country by storm. It's low in calories and it tastes great, so shut up and buy! A spy (Michael Moriarty) is hired by the competing ice cream company to try and crack The Stuff's secret formula. What he gets is a little more than he bargained for, as he battles giant waves of fanatical Fluff, inexplicably beds a beautiful woman (Andrea Marcovicci) and somehow attracts a tag-along child (Scott Bloom).If the above synopsis makes your stomach churn, "The Stuff" may not be the right stuff for you. If, however, you read it and are intrigued, you probably won't be able to get enough of "The Stuff." It's a silly b-movie to be sure. Throwing logic out the window at just about every turn, director Larry Cohen's schlockfest delivers silly, easily digestible entertainment, delivering chuckles (some intended, some otherwise) by the bucket load. Michael Moriarty is game as the hapless lead. With his lazy, drunken demeanor, you forgive the fact that he basically stumbles over his own lines and find yourself cheering the guy on as he encounters racists and racist stereotypes alike and goes toe to toe with the titular goo.The special effects are remarkably pretty effective for the era and the budget. In most shots, you'll believe that a dessert really could come to live and swallow you whole, like an albino blob. Cohen plays the whole thing fast and loose and while it isn't exactly an airtight movie, there's still lots of fun to be had with "The Stuff." When people speak of "midnight movies," this is the stuff they are talking about.

Paul Day II There may be a good movie lurking in here somewhere, but I didn't see it. The main problem comes in a total lack of focus. It can't decide what it wants to be. If it's a comedy, it's not funny. If it's sci-fi, there's no actual description of what The Stuff is. It's one great big WTF from the beginning. The Stuff, with no warning or catalyst, bubbles up out of the ground and some dumbass decides to eat it. That's the basis of your movie? Perhaps if you can suspend your disbelief that there are people who'll eat off the ground in the middle of a mine, you can enjoy this. I can't. "B-but it controls your thoughts so..." Fine. Why hadn't it done so already? What's the catalyst? Where's the back story? Or where's the explicit acknowledgment that this whole thing is one big goof?From here on out, you're at the mercy of some of the dumbest plotting I've seen. Mo just walks into the middle of commercial shoot and shuts it down and no one really complains. Nicole, plausibly, wants to do a background check on Mo but, even though there's plenty of time, never gets the result. Instead, she implicitly bangs Mo within five minutes of meeting him. Jason's family are sociopaths and the worst parents ever. Apparently, it's the only way the scriptwriters could show the mind control aspect of The Stuff. Mo casually tells Nicole that he's an industrial spy and she just accepts that with no sense of betrayal, disappointment or any emotion at all. Don't get me started on continuity. What turns this into a tragedy is that the actors all seem to be enjoying themselves. Moriarty does the hick bit perfectly. Marcovicci, stunningly beautiful, lifts her write-off character above the one-dimensional script. Sorvino rocks it as always. Sadly, the script, direction and editing conspire against their good intentions to turn this into something that MST3K would pass on.

Jamie Spraggon THE STUFF is a 1985 comedy/horror film, which tells the story of a mysterious goo that oozes from the centre of the earth. When a man finds it, he tastes it and thinks that it tastes delicious. After this THE STUFF is marketed and sold as the new delicious desert. However THE STUFF isn't the desert you may think it is. It rots your insides and turns you into zombie like creatures.In my opinion The Stuff was a boring film I didn't know it was a comedy and wouldn't have guessed either because it simply was not funny what so ever. I don't recommend this film at all as I hardly enjoyed it, you did get some entertaining scenes but they were very few. If you want to watch it go ahead, however I have warned you about this film.**/***** Poor.
