I love how The Stuff can apparently be stored in a fridge, a freezer, and at room temperature. So… are there different kinds of The Stuff? Or does no one know how to preserve it?
Probably the latter, since it’s a living entity that came from the earth and is edible from that state. Although the different kinds of Stuff also would make sense. Like maybe the marshmallow fluff is for some people, the frozen yogurt Stuff for others… I’m starting to think about the state of matter too much in regards to the Stuff.
Yogurt cups....a new fad in the late 70s. Room temp, chilled, frozen yogurts....all were fine. A real danger to the Big Ice Cream Syndicate. They even lampooned it in The Good Place. Humans create a less tasty substitute for a great tasting but fattening food... so you can eat more of it. Also parodied on Seinfeld and by Ron Swanson on Parks and Rec
There was something called The Ice Cream Wars in Glasgow Scotland. Criminals owned ice cream trucks and used to sell drugs out of them. There was a gang warfare over the turf 😂
This is one of those movies that while BAD has a special place in my heart because the image of stuff bursting out of Garrit Morris's face scared the ever loving shit out of me as a child.
Love looking at movie bedrooms for kids in the 80's. They go so hard on toys I would have loved to have as props. Shoutout to Jason's Return of the Jedi pillowcase.
Those weren't movie bedrooms, they were based on the real thing. Even well into the 90s we had bedrooms like that. Posters all over the walls, assorted figurines and toys on our shelves. Sometimes a crt tv with a console (most often a 30cm in my experience, and yes we played up to 4 player split screen without issue crammed around it 😆)
Omg. The older brother is played by Brian Bloom. Who went on to play Dusty on As the World Turns. And a very special episode of HBO's OZ.😎 The main kid is his real life younger brother Scott Bloom.
"The sheer volume of junk food we consume every day. We continue to eat these foods despite the fact some of them are killing us." Glad we've gotten better since 1985. Now i just consume it every other day.
@@swiftyslim6921 … your birthday makes you sad? Do you have some bad memories associated with it? Or is it just being around Christmas, it gets over looked?
I'm glad you did a review of this movie. I remember watching it when i was a kid back in the 1980s and feeling scared to eat ice cream for a while after that even though i knew at the time it was a silly ridiculous movie.
@dos3622 actor Chris Noth had the same problems on Law & Order. He was kicked out over complaints-problems but later, around 10yr after got back into another L&O series.
Yeah, the fact that they just seemed to conveniently forget that people were being controlled by the Stuff was a weird choice. I think if they did like a “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” thing and found out it was too late it would have been interesting. More realistic to the inevitable reality that thirty year later we’re still consumed by consumption
My only problem with this film is I feel Chocolate Chip Charlie needed more screen time. I want to see his side of this story. He's my favorite character.
No way!!! THE STUFF IS AWESOME!! The cinematography is hilarious and great. I love the colour scheme and the use of the colour pink... I think it's a pretty relevant film.
you know... at that moment where the father noticed that the kid was not eating the stuff. i think if you add the "You cant piss on hospitality, I WONT ALOW IT!" audio from troll 2 would fit so freaking well on that exact moment after tasting the cream.
Bro, im so glad you addressed the head to big for the body. I noticed it but i didnt at the same time. I was really like "i didnt realize how skinny bro is".
I kinda like the weird creepiness of Jason's family being obsessed and trying to force Jason into eating the stuff. Reminds me of that Next Gen episode with the addictive video game.
Omg i remember watching this with the family when i was a kid back in the mid 80s. I had been meaning to see this film again as an adult to see what my opinion is of it now. I think Mark told me enough to know i can move on to a different movie.
I wonder what they used for "The Stuff" because it looks thicker than whipped cream but runny like melted ice cream. Also, eating shaving cream is wild 😅. I know that most are moldy toxic, but still.
I vaguely remember seeing a behind the scenes for it and they used a few different things depending on what they needed in the scene. Shaving cream was used when it needed hold shape, something else I don't remember was used for flowing scenes, and something edible (whipped cream I think, or maybe yogurt?) was in the scenes when the actors ate it.
I always thought Moe was a really interesting protagonist, given the genre and era. He's savvy, well-dressed, and (unusually for a white guy with a southern accent in a horror movie) intelligent and ethical. He's basically the guy you WANT out there fighting The Stuff. I wish more horror movies gave us such nuanced leads, I get tired of rooting for idiots
So good to see you back ! Thank you so much for this very special gift right before New Years Eve. Hope you're good and that you had a good time with family and friends. Greatings from Germany 🙋🏼♀️
The cutaways cracked me up in this one! 😂 They're always great, but the little kid effect was next level. Thanks for another great year in weird movies.
Yessss excellent choice Markus. You and goodbad flicks are my favorite movie review channels. I love when you insert yourself into the scene. I got to find that martial arts Hocus pocus movie where you're acting like your rooming with them and the one man puts powder in his hair
How am I laughing out loud multiple times when I'm dead tired at 7:30 in the morning on New Year's Day...?? Oh, that's right, Mark put out a new video!
As someone that grew up in the middle of nowhere with tons of snow, I agree. Don't eat snow. That stuff is deadly. Imagine all the pollution we put into the air and water. Now look at snow. It has both.
It seriously caught me off guard when Mark appeared in the kitchen scene, I was like 'WTF? Why does he look weird, is it my eyes or my TV that's making Mark's head look...Off' Then he mentions it himself and I realised that he'd done it on purpose for the show lol I really thought my eyes were playing tricks on me 😂
Still a few minutes to premiere, but I already know it's going to be a banger. Really love your content Mark. It has become my number one background/comfort watch. Have a happy New Year and I look forward to another year of FanboyFlicks.
The year was mixed bag for me. There were good and bad days in 2023 but watching your videos always made the day a little brighter. Happy holidays Mark. See you in 2024.
this is one of my fav movies. not only for the special effects but this one line when they land in the plane and run out "WHAT CHU THINK DIS IS? WORLD WAR TREE?!" i die every time i hear that ADR line. also the main kids eyes and his bros eyes are fugging gorgeous. just insanely blue and sharp.
That spanking bit did make me think _"...aw don't do that Mr. Actor Man, its 2023 and we're conditioned to get weirded out by that sort of thing."_ Its like show me on this Famous Amos doll where the bad movie touched you.
I remember watching this movie growing up. After watching reruns on cable of The Blob and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, I saw the inspiration for this movie right away, but making the monster mimic an ice cream product was that got me intrigued to rent this at the video store at the time.
7:26 it took eight nurses (male and female) to hold my 50 lb rail thin 8 year old daughter one time to give her a flu shot. Don't underestimate kid strength - its like trying to hold down a cat in water.
I have to watch it again. I couldn't handle the old man eating eating it right off the bat. Like in the movie "Food of the gods" where the farmer recalls "When we found out it wasn't oil, we fed it to the chickens".
If they released a "The Stuff" ice cream right now in the original package, I bet it would have a nice little resurgence.
Pair with Tenefly Viper from Street Trash.
In the USA? Ohh no doubt. Probably a delicacy in the South.
That's how advertising works. We think we're smarter than that, but if you start showing advertisements... eventually we cave and buy some stuff.
I love how The Stuff can apparently be stored in a fridge, a freezer, and at room temperature.
So… are there different kinds of The Stuff? Or does no one know how to preserve it?
Probably the latter, since it’s a living entity that came from the earth and is edible from that state.
Although the different kinds of Stuff also would make sense. Like maybe the marshmallow fluff is for some people, the frozen yogurt Stuff for others… I’m starting to think about the state of matter too much in regards to the Stuff.
It depends on how you like your stuff. Chilled, room temp. Any way is fine.
Yogurt cups....a new fad in the late 70s. Room temp, chilled, frozen yogurts....all were fine. A real danger to the Big Ice Cream Syndicate.
They even lampooned it in The Good Place. Humans create a less tasty substitute for a great tasting but fattening food... so you can eat more of it.
Also parodied on Seinfeld and by Ron Swanson on Parks and Rec
There are no holes in The Stuff. It's perfect
Inside a warm body is ideal.
There was something called The Ice Cream Wars in Glasgow Scotland. Criminals owned ice cream trucks and used to sell drugs out of them. There was a gang warfare over the turf 😂
A rad podcast called The Dollop have covered it.
I have to check this out.
There’s a 1984 film called Comfort and Joy based on those ice cream wars too.
Sounds like basically every Democrat city and state here in America. (See Also: Dystopia/Hellscape)

Garrit Morris. H
Is he a relative of the original SNL cast member Garret Morris? 🤓😎✌🏼
That enlarged head was a great effect. Your skits area always spot on. I love it most when you are a cultist to be honest.
Effect?
@@GrantBitman-vu3ev🤣😂😆
Oops, affect. Man, I need to sleep more before I write things.
@@benneilson10Effect. You were right the first time lol
I wasn't correcting grammar. I just thought it would be funny to insinuate that Mark normally has an unusually large head. Sorry for the confusion.
I unironically love this movie. Mo and Chocolate Chip Charlie should have their own buddy-cop series 😶🌫️
I'd watch that!
Love looking at movie bedrooms for kids in the 80's. They go so hard on toys I would have loved to have as props. Shoutout to Jason's Return of the Jedi pillowcase.
The time capsule element is one of the biggest reasons I love 80s movies. Hair, clothes, room designs, toys, cereal, etc. :D
Those weren't movie bedrooms, they were based on the real thing. Even well into the 90s we had bedrooms like that. Posters all over the walls, assorted figurines and toys on our shelves. Sometimes a crt tv with a console (most often a 30cm in my experience, and yes we played up to 4 player split screen without issue crammed around it 😆)
I sense you had to word that very carefully.
@@requinremembers Same. I barely remember the 80s (born in '84). I love seeing how people lived back then.
Oh god this movie
I liked to call it
“When Yogurt has had enough”
For a silly B movie, this sure had a lot of well-known accomplished actors in it 🧐
Because it was a message film.
Good effects too
Also because it’s Larry Cohen. Peace.
Mark coughing in the background was so funny to me. “Yeah, it’s because I have West Nile or something.” Mark, being the GOAT, as always. 😂
Omg. The older brother is played by Brian Bloom. Who went on to play Dusty on As the World Turns. And a very special episode of HBO's OZ.😎
The main kid is his real life younger brother Scott Bloom.
That hotel scene scared the mess out of me as a kid one of the main reasons why I never ate yogurt as a kid
"The sheer volume of junk food we consume every day. We continue to eat these foods despite the fact some of them are killing us."
Glad we've gotten better since 1985.
Now i just consume it every other day.
6:55 retail guy here, id be losing my mind if a pyramid of super alien yogurt was toppled by a kid too
5:46 “Raw dog the whole thing”.
I’m dying. Funny stuff as usual.
It's been a bad Christmas and New Year for me, but a video from Mark really cheers me up.
I hope things get better for you. Hang in there.
Sorry you had a bad holiday season. Maybe 2024 will be a great year for you. Things can always get better
I hope as well things go better. My bday is at the end of the year and it's always 😢. So hope your 2024 goes better.
Really hope things get better for you in '24.

It's been a fantastic year for your show. So glad I joined your Patreon and started supporting your awesome content!
Right? This was the year I started giving back to the creators I've enjoyed for years, and of course Mark wound up on my list.
Comedy gold!
That's very cool of you. I'm going to start supporting my favorite creators as soon as I'm able to. They deserve it.
I have depression eaten Marshmallow Fluff (a new england favorite) out of the tub with a spoon. "The Stuff" ... now more than ever.
I always say "Welcome back TO the show!" in sync with you because it's catchy as hell. Thanks for the episode and Happy New Year!
Yeah I watch the videos on 0.5x speed to accentuate the "TO..." part. 😀❤
I'm glad you did a review of this movie. I remember watching it when i was a kid back in the 1980s and feeling scared to eat ice cream for a while after that even though i knew at the time it was a silly ridiculous movie.
I do love the message about junk food. Its killing us.
Is anti-semitic to hit the gym and avoid eating goyslop. At least that's what the news sites said.
Hard to believe Michael Moriarty was in this. He was in some really top notch movies, like Bang The Drum Slowly, The Last Detail, and Pale Rider.
He was canceled over some bad L&O set behavior. Yelled at crew, made crude passes at women. This was mid 1990s.
Yeah, he was an alcoholic.@@DavidLLambertmobile
@dos3622 actor Chris Noth had the same problems on Law & Order. He was kicked out over complaints-problems but later, around 10yr after got back into another L&O series.

My only problem with this film is I feel Chocolate Chip Charlie needed more screen time. I want to see his side of this story. He's my favorite character.
If it's not clear. the character is based on a black cookie entrepreneur from that time who called himself and his company Famous Amos.

I'm inexplicably craving icecream now. Also how did they all decide it needed to be refrigerated in the first place?
You always want MO

The stuff will never let you move on. Give in to temptation, it's delicious.
Loved this movie as a kid lol
Lol love your sarcastic humor,
also surprised you never covered this stuff before.
"This clown world..." Brilliant commentary had me rolling.
Wow! Brian Bloom and the most 80s kitchen ever! Great video as always!
Hope you had a great holiday! Glad you’re feeling better Mark!Thanks for another awesome year and here's to another one! Happy New Year!🥳🎉🥂

First time on the bike in months, thanks Mark!

Thank God you're back. I've been missing something lately and this was it lol
I cannot wait for your stand up special one day. You would be really good at it. Love these vids.

You're my favourite person on the internet, by far.. Love your sense of humour.
I still can't believe the first thing the dude did when he saw the bubbling white viscous liquid found in the snow was to taste it,...
I remember renting this in the 80's "Chocolate Chip Charlie" what a blast, Thanks for the nostalgia.
Chocolate Chip Charlie was supposed to be Famous Amos.

Especially when one of the guys holding the kid back is the bad guy from Under Siege 2, he’s not gonna hold his own.
So you and your cronies wanted to inject The Stuff into your own daughter.
Insidious.
Just can't get enough...of "The Stuff".
R.I.P. Chocolate Chip Charlie, too much of The Stuff.
Glad you are back Mark🎉
I swear i seen this video about 6 months ago.
Another great video.
In a perfect world, youd have a new episode daily. 😊
This would be a classic if Tom Atkins was the protagonist. Or if Joe Dante directed it, but I think that almost every time I watch a movie.
I remember seeing this when I was like 10 years old and found this movie to be absurd
An old aunt used to say that the babies with the big heads were a result of too much cousin luvin'.
My god, I was waiting for Larry Cohen's work to make it on this show, figures it would be the movie about killer marshmallow fluff
I can’t believe you covered this. One of my favourite awful movies. Keep up the great work mark!!!! Happy new year!!
I love that the logo for The Stuff shows that the tub is only 0.473ml.. That is only a small drop. Guessing they meant 473ml 😂😂
I have waited forever for you to finally get to this movie........... Thank you so much
The remake should be called "The Shizzle".
Fo rizzle
Great episode as always. I would be really interested to see a behind the scenes on that giant head insert. Very well done.
I saw this for the first time on TV late one Saturday night in the late 90s. I loved it, and still consider it a classic.
I remember watching this movie late at night on some random channel, along with Arena... Mark really has to review Arena next!
Oh dude, a new Fanboy video to finish this year, thanks a lot!
Garrett Morris always pops up in the weirdest movies.
I have to watch it again. I couldn't handle the old man eating eating it right off the bat. Like in the movie "Food of the gods" where the farmer recalls "When we found out it wasn't oil, we fed it to the chickens".
