The complex relationship between Welsh poet Dylan Thomas, his wife Caitlin, childhood friend Vera Phillips and her eventual husband William Killick.
The enormous success of The Blob (1958) led producer Jack H. Harris to try and do a sequel. The project had been shelved for many years. The next door neighbor at his beach house, Larry Hagman, admitted that he had never seen "The Blob". Harris projected his personal 16mm print of the film for him. Hagman showed such interest and asked about doing a sequel to the film that Harris resurrected the project. Larry Hagman wound up directing this sequel and doing a small role in it as well.
The film Godfrey Cambridge is watching on his TV when attacked by the Blob is The Blob (1958). The audio-only tracks are from the film within the film, "Daughter of Horror", a re-title of Dementia, from which stock footage is used in the theater sequences in The Blob.

Hippie, schmippie!
Revealing mistakes: When Lisa supposedly drives at top speed in a panic through the town in her truck, you can see cars traveling on an overpass behind her truck at twice the speed she is, indicating the filmmakers simply filmed her driving normally and then sped the film up.
Continuity: During the scene with "the naked Turk" in the bathroom, the Blob has supposedly eaten his dog off screen. When the Turk throws the telephone through the window so he can escape, you can see the dog is gone BUT the Blob is still the same size as it was before it ate the dog.
