This woman scientist deserved a better film.

I see the special effects budget is thinning. #Monsterdon

"Wanna see my rock collection", the original "Netflix and chill" #monsterdon #alligator1980

"I find this all fairly confusing…"

Apparently she's the audience POV character.

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

Her mother is the only hope she has for connecting the dots between her childhood pet and the monster gator. Once they know Ramone's true name, they can.... do something with that info? #Monsterdon

"You name it I apologize for it"

Uh, dude. That's almost as bad as "I'm sorry my actions offended you"

#Monsterdon

finally, both legs

#monsterdon

Don't let this guy go

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

OH my got, he is trying to screw her with her mother downstairs? And she is going for it? Oh c'mon lady
#monsterdon
#alligator1980

#monsterdon The police jumped the shark and at the same time, pulled off the grenade gag from Carpenter's The Thing, **respect**

I’ve seen this one… it’s The Angry Red Planet (1959)

#alligator1980 #monsterdon

I was expecting a "large marge" kinda situation there.

#monsterdon

okay, i know Mom here means well, but she might be the most obnoxious person we've met so far tonight.

#monsterdon

EAT HIM

EAT HIM

EAT HIM

EAT HIM

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe in fairness, that's kinda how Jaws ended.

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

“Don’t understand me so quick”

Dude, YOU started the trauma dump and kept it going all the way to the diner

#Monsterdon

"...and you have beautiful tits."

"I find this all fairly confusing."

Yeah, me too, lady.

#monsterdon

You can't lampshade your shitty movie by putting a shitty movie inside it #Monsterdon

"We have Nurse Ratched at home."

Nurse Ratched at home: her mom

#monsterdon

I was going to say he got a pretty nice rifle out of it but apparently it only shoots once and then jams or something. Or the guy was so drunk he only loaded a single round into it I guess.

#monsterdon

Not even watching yet cheering for the alligator. #Monsterdon

Yum! Misogynist.

#monsterdon

Don't play with my hair, it's a running gag. #monsterdon

#monsterdon Looks like mom is a tweaker.

Ok, why did the murderous shit push the other one in the water? #monsterdon #alligator #alligator1980

He talked about himself all the way from bed to getting dressed and through dinner? That is one boring dude! #Monsterdon

The movie portrays this guy as a huge idiot, but then his strategy of saying a bunch of racist shit while hiring three random teens he found to find the alligator seems to have worked. #monsterdon

Clearly the alligators are a trope for male pattern baldness.

#monsterdon

I mean, charging an alligator who is ACTIVELY EATING SOMEONE takes a lot of courage!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon🐊 🐊 🐊 💩 🩸 😱

why would the gator be wandering around trash infested alleys though?

PUSH HIM IN! PUSH HIM IN!

#monsterdon #alligator1980

Sigh.

Worst. Big. Game. Hunter. Ever.

🙄

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

Well, I guess I shouldn't expect much from a guy who guzzles liquor while he's hunting something he knows for a fact is huge

#monsterdon

"Talkin' about illicit desires--"

Deapite the unnecessary romantic subplot, that was actually a decent line.

#Monsterdon

ooff, you blew that one dude. And you only just fucked too.

#Monsterdon

This is the most 80s movie I've seen in a while, and I'm slightly ashamed to admit that I am unironically enjoying it…

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

That's just a Killer Klown doing a shadow puppet. #Monsterdon #Alligator

It learned the trash ambush method in the sewers

#Monsterdon #Aligator1980

Alligators love cat!

#monsterdon #alligator

"Who is we?"

Most cognizant moment in this movie.

#monsterdon

Adidas cop has been telling gatorlady about his life for two and a half days

#Monsterdon

Love Silva as the great white racist hunter. Or rather, I love his fate. #monsterdon

I always knew I'd get it in Booger Alley. #Monsterdon #Alligator

Come to Booger Alley in next 5 minutes if you want an ass woopin’

#alligator1980 #monsterdon

These two just came straight from the sewers, how are they not getting into the shower immediately?
#monsterdon #alligator1980

I mean for ten dollars, whatcha expect?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon he's offering those kids the modern equivalent to about $40 a day in today's money.

Let me tell you, $10 a day was not a good wage even by 1980s standards

Let's hope this racist die soon
#monsterdon
#alligator1980

"Ten dollars. A day." That's about 3.5 hours of minimum wage labor. Fuck this guy.

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

Sure, from eaten kid right to boobs. #monsterdon #80s

Now he'll have to fall back on his _thirdmost_-preferred career-path: Herpetologist's Love-Slave.

#monsterdon #Alligator

#Monsterdon🐊 🐊 🐊 💩 🩸 😱

I need to see our gator, and I need him to walk around and do cool stuff, and I need it right now

If they don't catch the gator, Illifornia and Florissouri will have to evacuate

#monsterdon

Okay so the romance is rushed but Robert Forster is awesome so I'll allow it #monsterdon

That is a depressing subject for an after sex chit-chat
#monsterdon
#alligator1980

"If you won't fuck me, I'll shit" is a hell of a line

#Monsterdon

We go straight from the death of a young child to the protags romancing each other? Really?? #Monsterdon

#monsterdon He's transparently trying to figure out how much to spend on dinner.

lol, don't rise to the White Dude's bait, there's trouble down there. Leave him to it.

#Monsterdon

I enjoyed the death of Donald in an inappropriate way #monsterdon #thereisaidit #putmeonalist

well, most herpetologists do live with their mothers #Monsterdon

Wow, they were bold enough to have a kid get et? No more Hays Code!

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

Not now, mom, we're chumming the pool.

#monsterdon

If they kill a kid in this movie, I swear to gods, I will cuss.
#Monsterdon

lol, the baldness thing once again

#Monsterdon

So much padding in this script #monsterdon

Her alligator was named Ramon.

He has a Ramon Santiago poster.

True love.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Alligator

That doesn't sound anything like the call of a baby gator 🤨

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon “Can I expect you to come home with me after dinner? // Perhaps, after a delousing and getting your clap card updated, Officer.”

did she just... kiss UNDERNEATH his mouth?!

#monsterdon

It strikes me that you are woefully underprepared to be splitting up in the sewers with this particular alligator... #Monsterdon #Aligator1980

Unbelievable. A river of slime.

#monsterdon

Splitting up, plus Star Trek VGER is on bass in the sound track. They are DOOMED #Monsterdon

that birthday party incident was the fastest death scene ever!

#monsterdon

@gblues I'm not even gonna look but I bet those eyebrows are listed as a "trademark" for him on IMDB #monsterdon

Stop bothering him, he has a lot of puppies to torture. #monsterdon

@plaidtron3000 @SRLevine #monsterdon

I have no idea if you're correct or not, but that sounds hella interesting.

Huh!
#monsterdon

Let's split up - nameless guy - you go toward those alligatory sounds.

#Monsterdon

@binford2k When you need creepy, you cast Henry Silva :D #monsterdon

@apLundell There is a Port Chicago in California....

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

Maybe they should try to take Ramone alive. He might want to be sedated.

#Monsterdon

Oh I remember this scene now.....lol....*rubs hands

#Monsterdon

Did they trans this alligator's gender???

#Monsterdon

Is he taking explosives from the evidence locker?

#Monsterdon

ah, good to know the weird bomb scene wasn't 100 % random, just kinda mostly.

#monsterdon

Do Alligators stash food like that?

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe

There's ALWAYS time for sewer love!

#Monsterdon

"As a scientist, I consider it my duty to make alligators as hormonally charged as possible."

🐊🩸 TRIVIAGATOR 🩸🐊

A scene with a movie SWAT team running out in a surprising way frightened nearby LA citizens who called the police.

#Alligator1980

This Brock guy is creepy af. #Monsterdon #Alligator #alligator1980

Look, we only have like 15 minutes left. I can't develop this plot point any more than this. Now hand over that badge! #Monsterdon

I'm just gonna assume animal noises guy is wrong on at least one count

He just seems like the type

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

MAKING EXTRA LARGE ANIMALS ISN'T GOING TO SOLVE FOOD SHORTAGES FOR FUCK SAKE WE'VE COVERED THIS IN MULTIPLE MOVIES STOP USING THIS TROPE

#monsterdon #alligator

Henry Silva making alligator noises to flirt with the cute reporter is peak 70s cinema!

#Monsterdon #Alligator

AH YES, A HELICOPTER
PERFECT FOR LOCATING A SUBMERGED ANIMAL

#monsterdon #alligator1980

@ohiofi I'm pretty sure that the winters are way too harsh, even down in the Ozarks.

#monsterdon #alligator1980

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

Do alligators NOT have bird-like poops the way iguanas do? Now I'm curious.

#monsterdon
