I was going to claim my βeat the richβ bingo spot but it appears to be mostly going for the staff. Hereβs hoping. #monsterdon #alligator #alligator1980
This is our second "Fucked off into the sewers" ending, yes?
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980
There's always a bigger reptile
Thar's a great flick. #monsterdon #alligator1980
Another #Monsterdon is in the can!
Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!
Tonight's feature, #Alligator, from 1980, was not originally titled "Land Jaws". Instead, we had:
flushed baby alligator!evil scientist that experiments on doggos!sewer walkabout!alligator eats a bunch of cops! alligator eats a reporter!sewer SWAT!trash gator surprise! alligator eats mr. hunter man!grenade filled boat goes boom!alligator eats a wedding!giant sewer explosion!"THE END????"
Well, it wasn't a rocket launcher, but I hope that was still overkill enough for all of ya'!
@Axiom the gas mask and bomb store.
#monsterdon
Cop blows up half the city in order to kill a hero gator. Sad.
YES! BLOW UP THE CRAZY OLD LADY, TOO!
Ramon did nothing wrong!
Smile you sonofaβ¦
We had to flip one more car #Monsterdon
Why did that random car also blow up... #monsterdon
more palm trees in the background....
His truck is a sundowner? Does it get anxious around sunset? Wtf is a truck doing with that name? #monsterdon
goddammit why didn't they launch him into space
they coulda launched him into space and they didn't
bastards
i wonder if the bazooka is enjoying retirement
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980 woohoo blow it all up
So anyway, to continue our previous conversation, I don't think my mother ever really loved me and... #Monsterdon
Lol I'm losing track, now. 12-0 Ramon, I think. #Monsterdon
Fake bomb somehow becomes a real bomb just in time for the climax
Isn't this how CHUD ended? truck parked on manhole cover and all.
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980
@kshernandez our Lord and savior Ramon
Didn't we do this same scene in CHUD? #Monsterdon #Alligator
IT'S JUST A RADIO
#monsterdon #alligator
LOL She said "The Alligator's coming" like "Jesus is coming." #Monsterdon
Does he think heβs going to fool an alligator with the clock radio βbombβ from earlier?
I genuinely forgot about the MacGuffin bomb
#Monsterdon #Aligator1980
And another #monsterdon is in the can. This was surprisingly watchable!
Big thanks to @Taweret for running our event, @cherizilla for the bingo cards, @JoeWynne for the trivia and all of you for keeping this such a lovely film.
See ya later Alligator π - another film next week!
Ladies and gentlemen, we got 'em
My bingo card is pretty full, with 2 bingos!
#monsterdon βWhen did I ever doubt you! Ohhh my heart!" there's Mr. Coronary!
EAT THE RICH! #monsterdon #alligator
Ramone, that thing has an off switch. You need to find it so you can continue your work! #Monsterdon
not with the forehead again :facepalm:
They loop the living hell out of every scream in this movie. #monsterdon
that's a good lookin gator #monsterdon
As expected, the tool of the state oppressed the proletariat vanguard.
I fail to see how the ex-copβs current plan of (checks notes) going into the sewer and shooting at the gator is anything different from what weβve been trying all movie
@ohiofi As he/she should be.
#Monsterdon
okay, somebody really thought they knew how to shoot a movie here. i guess they can have a couple of points.
As usual it's the help who suffer first. #monsterdon
@RobynGoodfellow They launched him from quite a distance.
#monsterdon
Will Chekov's methane explosion and Chekov's bazooka come together for the climax?
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980
Tertiary explosion right underneath THAT parked car, somehow!
Alligator wedding incoming!! #Monsterdon
Also, didn't the truck on the manhole cover thing show up in CHUD?
i do appreciate that they didn't waste time with lingering looks. both of them seem to know how to Get Things Done.
There's a remarkable number of secondary injuries not related to the alligator but to people fleeing π
#Monsterdon #Aligator1980
it might be possible for that to be a more LA and less Chicago shot, but honestly, I'm not sure how
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980 they keep saying chicago but this is all fucken los angeles isn't it?
YES!!! Dramatic string quartet music for the win!!!
Want that cartruck #monsterdon
Hilarious that the Alligator seems to know who the real bad guy is in all of this
NGL, the big alligator looked good.
Nice car destruction. Lotta mileage out of the thicc tail.
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980
We need to watch more movies where the billionaires are the main course. This is great. #Monsterdon #Alligator
Alligator just wanted some hickory smoked geezer.
#monsterdon This must be what inspired the T-Rex scene in Jurassic Park!
Stop eating the catering crew! Eat the rich fucks
#Monsterdon #Aligator1980
He hates cars! #monsterdon
we need a remake with alligator going after Bezos, Musk, Zuckerberg et al. #monsterdon
Again, Ramon's targets have been entirely justifiable in my eyes. He eats cops, jerks, and the rich. Tho even HE couldn't stomach the mayor, I don't blame him. #Monsterdon
Folks, just a brisk walk that doesn't intersect with the path of anyone else near the edge of a pool and you'll be fine. #monsterdon
I guess there's #vore happening in tonight's #monsterdon?
I guess Marisa and her mom talking about school night might make for a Bechdel test pass #monsterdon
Ramon. Hero of Monsterdon.
This film just got great!
#monsterdon
Is this the Christmas Adventurers Club?
You can tell he's the hero because he's chasing a thirty foot monster with a small caliber revolver and yet somehow he's gonna end up winning -_- #Monsterdon
@ottaross aren't these supposed to be under #Monsterdon? Tweeting under #Mastodon might be what's attracting the bots.
alligator knows how to party #monsterdon
~13 minutes left
#Monsterdon
The alligator must've looked up the Pharma dude in the phone book, cuz it looks like he's headed towards them.
I swear you can see the same exact dresses on the old rich symphony supporters today
Y'know I wouldn't mind seeing Mrs. Kendall have a chat with the alligator
over dinner
yeessss you knew he was going to fuck up the wedding this movie is perfect no notes
#monsterdon
YES
EAT ALL THE RICH BASTARDS NEXT
Scuba diving with alligators is a safe occupation. #monsterdon #alligator1980
I'm pretty sure having both your legs cut off above the ankles leads to bleeding out in less time than it takes to haul you back onto the boat. You aren't gripping anyone's hands (if I saw that correctly, maybe I didn't?).
#monsterdon All the member of the band seemed to be operating from different books of music.
Like, they had different titles and everything.
"Mongo HATES cadillacs" #Monsterdon
#monsterdon FAFO! My buddy! YAY! TEAM RAMON!
C'mon, this is too easy. This is like lining up all the old people in Death Race 2000.
Go on baby EAT THE RICH! #Monsterdon #Alligator
Ohhh nooooo... It's going for the rich people.... #monsterdon
Clearly this alligator has a thing for legs.
Debating which eye is evil, that's an interesting thing
"YOU HAVE A PARTY AND DID NOT INVITE ME?!"
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980 them duke boys are sure in trouble this time
How did they runned over the alligator?
#monsterdon
#alligator1980
#Monsterdonπ π π π© π©Έ π±
those men are very bad shots
#monsterdon YAY! EAT THE RICH PEOPLE! EAT THEM ALL!
The animatronic alligator is actually pretty well done.
#monsterdon
This woman scientist deserved a better film.
I love how this party of rich bastards is tempting fate....
