Where do I begin?

I accidentally found it on youtube. I was surprised because it has some partial nudity and some simulated sex.

This movie gets nuttier and more complicated as it goes along.

First the blob enters the body of a human and somehow it was caught by authorities. But while in a holding cell it manages to slither under the door and take over the body of a guard, and almost immediately moves to occupy the body of a female worker so it can make an escape. Her name is Connie, played by a very sexy Alex Meneses.

The "heroine", Amanda, played by Nicole takes pity on the now alien occupied Connie who she sees at a coffee shop because she knows the feds are hunting her. Takes her home and helps her be more human like so she can make it to the rendezvous point. But in the process, Amanda learns her no good boy friend is an unfaithful creep so she agrees to let the alien transfer itself into her ex-boyfriend. WOW, talk about hell has no fury like a woman scorned.

But there is a major twist. The alien is having trouble dealing with the feelings of being a woman. She gets the hots for the ex-boyfriend when he stops by to pick up some CD's he left behind.

And so we see the first sex scene after which the alien leaves Connie and enters Charlie. The movie never explains why the body totally disappears after the blob enters a new one. But HEY, it's Hollyweird.

But there is more. After a bit of frivolous behavior, Charlie, the ex-boyfriend now possessed by the alien, makes a move on Amanda who suddenly has the hots for the old ex-boyfriend, who used to be Connie, who used to be a soldier who was taken over by the alien blob.

So now we have the second sex scene with the newly alien occupied Charlie and Amanda. There is a humorous chase scene after the feds learn Amanda gave the blob, I mean Connie a ride. They eventually figure out Amanda is helping the blob, I mean, Connie who is now Charlie and chase them down. There are some humorous scenes that try to salvage this odd ball thing but it doesn't quite make up for all the goofiness. Before this mad cap thing is over the alien blob will have to leave its current body and occupy at least two others so by the end Amanda should have been totally confused but instead she says she is in love with the blob, I mean, Stacy Keach, who used to be Michael Dorn, who used to be Charlie, who used to be Connie who used to be................ AW forget it.

But we have a happy ending. Thanks to Amanda, the blob has come to realize humans are intelligent creatures and should not be eaten. So Amanda has single handedly saved the human race.
