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
Henry Silva making alligator noises to flirt with the cute reporter is peak 70s cinema!
AH YES, A HELICOPTER
PERFECT FOR LOCATING A SUBMERGED ANIMAL
@ohiofi I'm pretty sure that the winters are way too harsh, even down in the Ozarks.
We were going to market it, but Mark McGuire wanted an exclusive contract... #Monsterdon
Do alligators NOT have bird-like poops the way iguanas do? Now I'm curious.
@hollie Roger that, refilling wine.
@cherizilla That guyβs pretty creepy.
New Story suggestion:
The alligator is a female and only eats misogynists.
#Monsterdon
What if Quint didn't have anything to back up his bravado, and wasn't just gruff, but actively lecherous and was sabotaging the whole operation?
βAlligator (1980)
@pngwen Oh right, the Gator Guys of the 80's
@Bluedepth "May I be rapturously covered in gravy."
It's a wild animal not a submarine!
#monsterdon #alligator1980
OH
The Big White Hunter is Henry Silva! I knew I'd seen him somewhere before, he's the creep from Escape from the Bronx :D #Monsterdon
Ramone is under going hormone treatments? Good for them.
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980
For a film set in Chicago it really needs more native Chicago energy.
"Lookit the size of it! Hey buddy you been eatin good? Ya look healthy!"
"Ever heard of liquid salad? Al does that"
"We should take him out to eat"
Guy he busted with the baby alligator in the park was in Beetlejuice and Pee Wee's Big Adventure. He's the one who explained Large Marge. #Monsterdon #Alligator
This came out the same year as Humanoids from the Deep, so... let's just say the treatment of women could be better but it could be worse #monsterdon
In America we're so good at blowing things up we don't even need to have things
@hollie Yeah, there were shady guys on corners with alligators and free drugs all over the place in the 80s. #Monsterdon
Not enough movies are brave enough to use garage can lids as a cheap substitute for cymbals
#Monsterdonπ π π π© π©Έ π±
this guy is gross and also a little bit crosseyed
Ewww ewww ewww, stop!!! Get this guy to shut up and stop talking to the reporter #Monsterdon
Are they just... lobbing grenades into a river running through the middle of the city..? I feel like we've seen dynamite fishing in the not too distant past too...

Alligator romance. Well I didn't think this was gonna be a love story.
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980
EAT THIS GUY SLOWLY FROM THE FEET UP #monsterdon #alligator1980

Alligator "love calls" are subsonic
#monsterdon

Wow. Someone called a cop a communist. #monsterdon
Let us introduce yet another misogynist male character
This guy has a point, it _would_ be fun to see hin eaten.
I SAID LATER
alligator
Shit, I know that guy ("it's a wild animal not a submarine"), played some awful bad guy in ... a Steven Segal flick I think? CIA Guy.
Why is cigarette voice cop so damn drunk
@floatybirb The boss detective plus he has a mustache.
OMG it's Henry Silva. π²
Do alligators actually hiss? For bingo purposes
βGuys, if we strap dynamite to the dogs we have left and send them into the sewersβ¦β #monsterdon
hell yeah hillbilly fishing
RE: https://twit.social/@jammerb/115562761900310903
Jesus Christ, why.
Why did I EVER watch Rollergator.
Yeah, I don't think an M-16 is going to do much to a car-sized gator.
ACAS - all cops are snack
#monsterdon #alligator1980
NO, A REFRIGERATOR
Those are pretty good practical effects! #monsterdon #alligator
We're gonna try to get the gator out of the water by killing EVERYTHING IN THE LAKE.
Okay, THAT sounds more like the cops. #monsterdon
lol, "Being a creep"....that should be illegal.
Well, they _did_ promise Frankie Pentangelo a spot in the Witness Protection Program[sic], but 'police-chief in a Midwestern city' seems a little too public no matter how they change his nameβ¦.
I bet you could put a gator in your backpack and teach it to roller skate
The lake over wear?
"Dat lake over dere!"
Okay thanks chief.
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980
Funny how they are bombing the lake and people just walking on the other side as if nothing is happening
#monsterdon
#alligator1980
That alligator bust through the sidewalk like the kool-aid man! #Monsterdon
Freddy Krueger: the teenage years #monsterdon #alligator
Lmao completely gratuitous car explosion, AND he ate a cop's leg? Hell yeah
The miniatures don't look great. but the lighting is doing some heavy lifting to make them look okay on film.
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980
WTAF. Alright. Sure. #monsterdon
either clear your throat or stop talking forever
Bringing a knife to a gator fight, kid? #Monsterdon
This is the best part of the movie.
#Monsterdon
Thatβs not a bread knife, a bread knife is serrated #Monsterdon
When I was a kid in the 90s, people were always telling me to run zig-zag from an alligator. It would catch you if you ran in a straight line. People kept telling me this, even though I grew up in the Northeast. I wonder if this movie is why. #monsterdon
#Monsterdonπ π π π© π©Έ π±
actually, he's only gonna eat cops maybe that's fine!
(edit: only cop *parts*, better still)
The commercial on YouTube is asking me if stress is keeping me up and that I can save myself with some substance that works on the cellular level and I want it.
At least the cop will be in easy to carry sections.
Cars were so explodable back then.
Unless they have a right-hand drive, homey is driving with his eyes closed this entire scene.
#monsterdon
I don't think Police are very good with 'Safety'....just an observation....
you could've used the other car window, dude
Did the gator just break through asphalt/concrete?
(someone else needs to come up with the "do you even lift bro" joke this needs, something with the locker room and the rookie that got eaten maybe?)
Pretty good self-own there, ossifer #monsterdon
Kaiju-gator
YESSSSSS!
#Monsterdon
I didn't know Tesla was making cars back in 1980... #monsterdon
Ramon's here to gentrify the neighborhood, run! #Monsterdon
#monsterdon
My hero emerges!!
I sort of miss the days when stuff like this was theatrical fare. #monsterdon
Robert F Kennedy Jr: βDrinking raw sewage is actually healthier for you than milkβπ₯
#monsterdon HERE WE GO!
The real monster is bad parenting
These are some Johnny Cash level boots we got here
@roque Confused rat himself Frankie Pentangelli! #Monsterdon
#monsterdon
This movie really makes you want to eat popcorn and some chocolate bars.
#monsterdon Oops, Blues Brothers are on the set, Cops suddenly cannot operate machinery or vehicles, or... waddle away fast enough to not be an amuse bouche.
They should just shoot anyway
@apLundell Thatβs it! #Monsterdon
@allanb oo, well spotted
Those waders are not nearly long enough. Imagine water seeping into them. Yuck. #monsterdon #alligator
Nobody thought to shine spotlights down the tunnel?
i mean normally you only get this much army for a UFO
or a russian sub I guess
Ha! The cops are waiting for the flushed out alligator behind sandbags, just in case they take any fire from the alligator.
@Lazarou Ramon can do anything he wants in this movie
