in its container. Jason mentions he saw it move and Dad is angry with him sends him upstairs. Dad eats the carton of Stuff.
Commercial, a celebrity talks about how great the Stuff is.
Various executives from a major ice cream company are meeting. They have no idea what the ingredients for the Stuff are. They plan on hiring former FBI agent, turned industrial

A photo shoot for the Stuff, Moe poses as an executive for an oil company wanting to buy the ad company Nicole Kendal works at and place her in charge. She developed the
initial campaign for the Stuff and even named it. Moe is pouring on the corny charm. Nicole wants an employee to run a background check out Moe.
Grocery store, everyone is buying the Stuff. Jason is walking the aisles, takes a carton of Stuff from a kid eating it. Jason runs through the market randomly destroying displays
of the Stuff. A Destruction montage ensues. Picture the part of Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, where Veruca Salt, the rich girl, trashes the one room in the
factory, like that without the singing. Store employees eventually catch Jason who’s screaming how it will kill them.
Moe posing as a reporter interviews Mr. Vickers, FDA official. Moe asks about the Stuff. Vickers tells him everything about it, even feeds it to his dog. Vickers goes to get some
of the non-confidential paperwork on the Stuff. Moe takes it and leaves.
That night, Moe drives by a Stuff stand, loaded at 2:30 in the morning. Later, Vickers is trying to call the police when his dog rips out the phone line. Dog hacks up white goo
forcing it into Vickers mouth,
Garfield the Cat makes me sick!!!
Moe heads to the small town where the Stuff was originally tested. Most the people have left. Moe leaves the gas station to check out another car. The gas station attendant
runs into the woods for some reason. Suddenly, Kung Fu master Chocolate Chip Charlie attacks Moe. They stop when they realize their on the same side. Charlie lost his company
when it was sold behind his back to the Stuff manufacturers, tracked the forwarding address to Stadler.
At the post office, they learn the mail is routed to Middlin, Georgia. Postmaster wants to be left alone, sounds sick. White goo oozes out of his mouth. Moe and Charlie find the
Postmaster. They follow the white goo.
Several people possessed by the Stuff (going to call them Stuffers from now on) chase Moe and Charlie. Fight ensues. One punch will cave in a Stuffer’s head. Moe and Charlie
get in a boat and escape. The postmaster wakes up afterwards.
Charlie and Moe are in a greasy spoon, that doesn’t carry the Stuff. Moe wants Charlie to go to Washington D.C. to contact an FBI agent. Moe leaves. We see the waitress has
a huge stockpile of Stuff.
In the big city, Moe is watched by Stuff street venders like ice cream carts. A Stuff van almost runs over Moe. He meets with the head distributor of the Stuff. The distributor
threatens Moe and then offers to buy Moe off as head of security for the Stuff.
Moe meets with Nicole and reveals he’s an industrial saboteur. He takes her to the lab. Moe will go with Nicole to the Stuff factory to get proof. No one will believe him
otherwise. He spots a newspaper story about a boy destroying the Stuff in a supermarket.
Another Stuff commercial is on television. Jason is in his room, heads to the kitchen and sees a lot of empty Stuff containers. The rest of the family is chowing down on the
Stuff. That’s what’s for dinner. Dad offers him some Stuff. Brother grabs Jason when he tries escaping the house. Parents give him a carton of Stuff and send him to his room until
he finishes it.
Going upstairs, Jason empties the Stuff into the toilet and flushes it. The family is basking in awe of the fridge full of the Stuff. Jason fills the empty carton with shaving cream
and goes downstairs. Parents see him eating it. Gagging, Jason runs outside Dad realizes it wasn’t the Stuff. They chase him into the night. Moe drives by rescuing the sick to his
stomach Jason.
They arrive at the airport, head for Georgia. Jason goes, too. There are a lot of mines around Middlin. Nicole and Moe head to the Stuff factory. Jason is left on the plane. Stuff
kills the pilot and Jason escapes.
At the Stuff factory, Nicole and Moe take the tour, while Jason is running through the woods. Nicole and Moe aren’t allowed into the mixing room. Jason finds an abandoned
mine and a tanker truck arrives. He hides on top of it before hiding in the tank which is closed.
Moe tells Nicole how the Stuff controls your mind if you eat too much of it. They think Jason is in Savannah where Moe ordered the pilot to take him. In the motel, in bed, another
commercial for the Stuff is played. Stuff oozes out of the pillow trying to kill Moe. Nicole sets the Stuff on fire. When a redneck rushes in to attack them, the bed is full of Stuff engulfs
the redneck. The room is set on fire. Moe and Nicole escape, hotwiring a truck to go back to the factory.
The tanker truck pulls out; Jason is still trapped in the tanker. Moe and Nicole follow the trucks. The Stuff workers get out the hoses to pump the Stuff from the ground into the
tankers. Moe and Nicole spy on them as they do this.
Moe plans on stealing a truck of the Stuff, puts on a Stuff worker’s coveralls. Truck Jason is in is about to be loaded. Nicole will meet Moe later. He starts planting explosives
around the quarry.
Moe has snuck among the workers; one is suspicious until Moe knocks him out. A quantity of the Stuff is pumped into Jason’s tanker who tries to keep it from getting him. Moe
hears Jason in the tank and steals that truck. He activates his explosives. Workers try to stop Moe from escaping.
Nicole has to fight off a Stuffer; Moe runs the truck over the Stuffer’s legs. Moe gets Jason out of the tank just in time. They all head off in the truck. A cop pulls them over, sees
the hose dragging the road.
Cop has them all get out of the truck. Moe mentions that the Stuff is leaking out of the truck. Jason and Nicole head to the pile of it, acting like they’re eating it. They lure the cop
to the back of the truck when Moe knocks him out. The plan is to head for a large city, harder for the Stuff to control so many people.
Moe has a better idea, head towards a castle. They are surrounded by an elite force of military men. Moe is here to see Colonel Spears, who he has tapes of from when he worked
in the FBI. Moe tells Spears about a dangerous conspiracy that will leave America open to commies. They discuss it in detail. Spears’s forces will attack the plant.
The truck Moe stole pulls up to the factory. Stuff worker shoots the trucker who brought the truck back. Spear’s forces storm the plant. The Stuffers are retreating. Spears and
his men enter the plant which is deserted. They find the Stuffers dead. The white goo has left the bodies. Nicole and Jason are going outside, chased by a massive blob of white
goo. Nicole and Jason escape the building before the white goo bursts forth. Spears decides to warn the public, now.
As they are flying to one of Spears’s radio stations, Spears wants Nicole to help him improve his image. They arrive at the airport, taking taxis to the radio station. Spears wants
to broadcast the message on as many stations as possible.
Nicole starts writing the warning. Charlie storms past the troops. Moe reads what Nicole has written. Charlie wants to help. Spears initially refuses to allow Charlie to speak on
his station but allows him to provided he doesn’t say anything liberal or in code. Nicole talks with Charlie who tells her what a body looks like after the Stuff is through with it. Charlie
begins convulsing and his jaw distends letting the Stuff leave him, as Jason enters the room.
Moe breaks the glass to the broadcast booth they’re inside. He manages to electrocute the Stuff, getting Nicole and Jason out of the flaming room.
The warning is broadcast as Spears begins telling of the dangers of the Stuff.
Stuff billboards are being burnt. Nicole tells of what happens in the following weeks. The nation rids itself of the Stuff. People have public Stuff burnings. They firebomb Stuff
stands and the plant.
Moe watches a broadcast of Nicole’s message. He meets with the Stuff distributor and, the head of the ice cream company that hired Moe is present. They plan to distribute a
new version of the Stuff called the Taste, containing only 12% Stuff. Moe has Jason enter carrying a large box. Jason opens it and starts placing Stuff cartons in front of the
distributor and ice cream man. Moe forces them to eat the entire case
Moe and Jason leave.
A truck pulls to a stop, black-market Stuff dealing has begun.
