Ok y’all I’m not watching the movie but do want to share something. When I was little (like 5, soon after this movie came out), I took forever in the bathroom. One time I fell asleep with my head on the toilet paper roll (it was at my mean grandma’s who decorated everything with crocheted or quilted crap so the toilet paper had a fancy roll cover on it, so it was comfy. I don’t know what I was doing, I was five so I don’t really remember, but I was so slow in the bathroom.

until

my mom told me about something clearly inspired by the movie you are watching.

"Sewer Sharks: they'll bite your butt"

and i thought for years that a shark might jump out of the toilet.

My household is Team Gator so far

#Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie Poor Barry Allen! Good thing he’s faster than Flash-eating bacteria

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I want to kill every member of the cast, in the worst and most painful way possible. Yes, science, but also, I'm going to cut your larynx to ... keep you quiet. And I want, need, the old man to be eaten by the alligator.

#monsterdon y'all need a movie that end badly for the 'good' side, I can already guess the cops will win against our friend here

Oh my god could this scientist-type get any more hateful

#monsterdon

LEG END

#Monsterdon

If this movie were made today, the nosy detective would immediately be marked for death by the evil corporation's assassins. #monsterdon

can we cut off this dude's larynx?

#monsterdon

Eat this guy next Alligator. #Monsterdon #Alligator

"We cut the larynx when they first come in. Helps keep the noise level down."

Should institute that at the White House

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Wait, do alligators have extra eyelids?

I don't trust animals with too many eyelids.

Lol what?? You think people cut their toenails and fingernails the same way???

#Monsterdon

Robert Forster wants to kick the shit out of this guy for what he's done to these dogs you can tell.

#Monsterdon

Wait... did dude get eaten by an alligator while wearing alligator shoes? He got what he deserved. #Monsterdon

"You're a hormone guy"
"Trans rights are human rights, yes"
#monsterdon #alligator

Evil scientist is evil.

#monsterdon #alligator1980

"He was wearing Alligator wingtips"

I see what you did there #Monsterdon har har

Terrible synth version of Jaws theme

#Monsterdon

@cocaine_owlbear @Taweret Consider: an oversized animal wearing a hockey mask.

#monsterdon #alligator1980

Hangin’ out at the sewage treatment plant with the boys

#monsterdon #alligator1980

Alligator cam! #Monsterdon

I think the lesson of this movie is going to be that you can't solve your problems by flushing them into the sewer
#Monsterdon #Aligator1980

Nice Legally Distinct Jaws music #monsterdon

wow okay we're not even pretending we're not cocaine alligator jaws

#monsterdon #alligator1980

Gators 1, Pet Thieves 0

#Monsterdon

yeessss, feed my gator friend, feed...

#Monsterdon

It didn’t take long to discover that this is not a movie in which I’ll be rooting for most of the humans. #monsterdon

c'mon 'gator, get this evil scumbag

#monsterdon

NICTATING MEMBRANE
#monsterdon #alligator1980

They desperately wanted to borrow the Jaws music, but didn't want to risk the lawsuit.

#monsterdon

@kshernandez but, doctor ... *I* am shady lab person

#Monsterdon

Love that piano music that means, “shit’s about to get real.”

#Monsterdon

gosh I hope we don't run into any giant alligators. that's the last thing we want

#monsterdon

“The drug works.” That’s not ominous at all #Monsterdon

The late 70s. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

#monsterdon #alligator

puppies

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

@ricci Dog-napping. Shady dealings with lab people. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980 ah so the gator's been eating these discarded puppy carcasses that've been pumped full of experimental drugs?

let's get crackin', movie

Missed another five minutes because that toilet scene made me have to take care of something. Just came back ... Edward Norton's in this movie? #monsterdon

OMINOUS PIANO

#Monsterdon

@Newpa_Hasai Well, that was national news in 1969. Either way it's not LA 😂

#monsterdon

Hopefully this guy becomes an Alligator Happy Meal.

#Monsterdon

Edward Norton is in this movie? Have the alligators been exposed to gamma radiation?

#AlligatorHulk #Monsterdon

@ricci You missed a detached human hand being stuffed into a plastic bag.

#monsterdon

Edward Norton??? #monsterdon #alligator1980

Are you a friend of Edward Norton's?

#Monsterdon

So far I've seen one human that I don't want eaten by alligators, which is par for a Monsterdon movie, but I'm still disappointed.

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980 ah yes the puppy-industrial complex

Me at work next year: "The old man's breathing down my neck for results. Get cracking." (then experiments on puppies).

#monsterdon

NEUMAN. That's who this guy reminds me of.

#monsterdon #alligator1980

Oh, he's a dirty pet thief, and he sells puppies to mad scientists, nah fuck this guy.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🐊 🐊 🐊 💩 🩸 😱

oh no no no no

This guy makes the dinosaur smuggler guy in Jurassic Park look like Mother Teresa. #monsterdon

"Must've been a pretty small casket" lmao I feel like that's a Leslie Nielsen line #monsterdon #alligator1980

Okay, the schlubby pet store owner is no longer sympathetic

#monsterdon #alligator1980

What was that, like 4 minutes in and we already saw an alligator attack, our hero (Ramon) and somebody we want eaten (Bill)? Gotta be some kind of record.

#monsterdon

Does the dog die? Spoiler alert: yes

#monsterdon #alligator1980

Oh no... this is gonna be one where they abuse pets... #monsterdon

You need a toe? I can get you a toe #Monsterdon

Love love love Robert Forster send toot #monsterdon

Is this gonna be another movie where we don't like any of the characters? Creepy pet store guy. Skuzzy cop. I guess the dog is fine.
#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

Way to man-handle the evidence
#monsterdon

I too talk about Lhasa Apsos while sticking a human hand in a plastic bag.

#monsterdon

This guy's part. #Monsterdon

I'm 5 minutes late to #monsterdon , what did I miss ??!???

Here we have the turd fishing department... #monsterdon

I'd legit like to know if this was filmed at an actual water treatment plant.

#monsterdon #alligator1980

#monsterdon last time I post about this: let's no-one get too attached to the pooch, it seems like the movie at least telegraphed it for us.

Thing's not looking too good these days

#monsterdon #alligator1980

Coming in late to #Monsterdon and this is my seed post, all the rest will sprout from this one!

If anyone else wants to join in, please do!

Bet it's cheap to film at the sewage treatment plant.

Kids ordered amazing things from the back of comic books in the 1960s, including baby alligators. And kids ordered them, without adult supervision.

Some parents supposedly flushed the pets down the toilet, leading to popular urban legends regarding what happened to these scaley victims.

Producer Brandon Chase announced in 1976, probably a few days after he saw Jaws, that he was making a movie based on this idea.

#Alligator1980

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980 this pet store owner gives me "i eat the animals" vibes

We could've been introduced to the idea of sewer gators without the shitty family

#Monsterdon

@Lazarou or modern society for not providing public transportation to alligator school #monsterdon

I suppose it's too much to hope Ramon grows up to eat the people who flushed him

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

Smol Gator :blobaww:

Also the humans are so effin' miserable so I am definitely Team Alligator eat em all gator EAT EM ALL! #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Baby alligators? This can't be something people actually did... Outside of Louisiana and Florida at least. Def not Chicago #monsterdon

Father of the year material right there…

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980

(toilet flushes) DRAMATIC MUSIC 👀
#Monsterdon

A Wayne’s World moment.

#Monsterdon

...Wait

So

A beloved reptile pet is abandoned and it grows into a giant mutant

This is *literally* the plot of Gamera (1965). #Monsterdon

I'm sure this healthy family votes Republican. Poor baby Gator #monsterdon #alligator1980

@pngwen He's going to a better place, trust me. #Monsterdon

Hope he gets salmonella.

#Monsterdon

Infrastructure!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Alligator1980 is this like Finding Nemo? The baby alligator's gonna try to find his way back to the girl?

#monsterdon

I am on team gator.

This is an early version of Flushed Away #monsterdon

Of course, after more than a month of missing #monsterdon I come back and it's a swamp movie.

NOOO RAMON Bill you fuckface

#monsterdon

Ramone! No! #Monsterdon

lol, 'boomer Parents'

#Monsterdon

Sadly this was long enough ago that alligators were bussed to separate schools. #monsterdon

Remember, folks, alligators are living creatures, not an Easter gift!
#monsterdon #alligator1980

All the deaths to come are this child's fault.....
