if the crab is liquid, does that mean we have to poor the crab into a differently shaped vessel? #monsterdon

solid liquid crab #monsterdon

Honestly I expected more crabs and less mysterious disembodied voices. #Monsterdon

“There’s no cohesion between the atoms!” “I don’t understand.” “Neither do I!” Relatable dialogue TBH #monsterdon

"I can tell you this is a male land crab because of the dick" #monsterdon #attackofthecrabmonsters

This is like my Meema at Red Lobster. "Just give me the claws," she says. "I only want the claws." #monsterdon

Molecular structure of this crab is entirely disrupted #monsterdon

They're zombie crabs too it would appear

BRAIIIIIINS

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #AttackOfTheCrabMonsters Predictably, we walk into the Psurlon trap and are ambushed by a giant crab, that looks kind of like a bloated pancake with a face. Anyway, it has resistance versus explosive damage but is weak to melee weapons, judging by how easily that pickaxe detached a leg from it.

#Monsterdon #AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

Great, so now it's three survivors against Pepe le Pew the Crab. #Monsterdon

The crab would return to life #monsterdon

Tubi got commercials! Agh.

#monsterdon
#AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

#Monsterdon The ensign apparently drew aces and eights.

@peter_mcmahan When on Crab Island, be sure to stay at Motel-6!

#monsterdon

I don't believe in ghosts. Just creatures that appear when a man dies and we hear and see them. BUT NOT GHOSTS!

#Monsterdon #CoffeeReport And there we have it, coffee is served!

"...live from WKRAB!"

#Monsterdon #AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

I HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS THE REMAINING ~25 MINUTES OF THIS MOVIE SEEM UNLIKELY TO ANSWER. #Monsterdon

crabs deep-faking voices #monsterdon

#Monsterdon

I also note that the "ghost" ie crab is *watching* them. It could tell when the guy picked up that thing from the table. I feel like that deserves mentioning by any of the characters, or would if any of this made any sense

#Monsterdon

"I've been here dreaming of all the things I could do, with only a left hand."

Haha [sweating] #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

"Is this supposed to be a ghost story?"

No, it's supposed to be a giant crab story.

We're all buying into disembodied ghost voices pretty easily here.

#Monsterdon

"It sounded like Jules."

Because you know how a specific person sounds when they scream in horror/agony?

#Monsterdon

I take it back, his actual death was hilarious

#Monsterdon

#MONSTERDON

a LOT more crab ventriloquism in this movie than i was expecting #monsterdon

Best practice is to ignore disembodied voices. #Monsterdon

how did the crabs learn english, that's what i'd like to know. #monsterdon

Why are they going back packing in a cave again on constantly terraforming island?
#Monsterdon #AttackoftheCrabMonsters

I'm sorry, it sounds like WHAT????? #monsterdon

Playing cards and smoking - over an open box of dynamite sticks. I'm sure that's fine.

#monsterdon

The worst part of ads during #Monsterdon is realizing that the #AARP ad is targeted to me. 🧓

these two ensigns seem to show up just after every crab attack. are they...? 🦀🦀 #monsterdon

"Come, give us a hand!"

Me:

#Monsterdon

Rocks cleanly slicing off a guy's hand is also a little sus, just saying

#Monsterdon

Oh hey, handy! #Monsterdon

She was the only one who notices there's a MISSING MOUNTAIN?

#Monsterdon

Docket #191728 crab charged with willfull and deliberate destruction of a radio, sir, how do you plead? #monsterdon

there aren't enough coconuts in the world professor

#monsterdon #AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

Crabs Eat Radios, apparently.

#Monsterdon

“I am a simple adventure botanist!” I’m putting that on my resumé. #monsterdon #crabrave

are we not men no we are laaaand craaaaabs

and now we have no ra-di-o!

#monsterdon #AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

#monsterdon It would be quite difficult to neatly slice a vacuum tube in half. How did a crab do that?

You'll never convince me that any of these guys ever rang the bell in gym class #monsterdon #attackofthecrabmonsters

waiting to find out if this is Chekhov’s kerosene lamp #monsterdon

No, there are many things that I do not understand!

#monsterdon
#AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

If these voices aren't coming from giant crabs using dead scientists as puppets I'm going to be very disappointed.
#monsterdon

"ll take "what is a predictable kerosene lamp fire?" for $500 alex
#monsterdon

Jeez, okay, up the rope. Frickin' rope nazi. #Monsterdon

Uh, do crabs make noises?

#Monsterdon

McClane's Journal: Day 45, I can feel myself getting aroused by the crabs...

#monsterdon
#AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

Between the SeaBees & the French accents, I'm betting big South Pacific vibes from this

#Monsterdon

hypercarcinization is very real

#monsterdon #AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

I love that their Field Headquarters is decorated in Contemporary Modern style. How much d'you think they paid the decorator to come out here to the middle of the Pacific? #Monsterdon

@Taweret
With such anti-crab behaviour, I'm immediately on the side of the monsters again. #monsterdon

why are you throwing rocks at random wildlife? wtf dude

#monsterdon

I really was hoping there would be another 5 minutes of pit-cave legal wrangling. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon #CoffeeReport ... WE FINALLY HAVE COFFEE SIGN!

#Monsterdon Ventriloquist crabs, the worst kind.

There's a danger of cave-ins, so we won't rappel straight down into the pit, we'll go the long way through the cave network. #monsterdon

is jim scared of a broken leg? #monsterdon

Ooops, sorry about that Jim. I felt very eepy and had to take a nap.

#Monsterdon

Aaaand the award for Easiest Dame to Knock Unconscious goes toooo... #Monsterdon

WAIT, are the crabs pretending to be the dead crewmember to lure more victims?! Is this Annihilation

#Monsterdon

Earthquake fainting is real y’all. #Monsterdon

Earth, Water, A few Land Crabs

my favorite band #monsterdon

you know what they say about good directing: tell, don't show. wait... #Monsterdon

@SnoopJ +1

I set a low-pass filter on my equalizer

#Monsterdon

I'm sorry but this scientist dude is absolutely wearing a chest hairpiece. Either that or he lost a wrestling match with a giant slug on the floor of a barbershop #monsterdon

oh no there's crab ghosts

#monsterdon

The tree in that newly formed pit must have been mutated by radiation. #Monsterdon

uh, the crabs found a megaphone??? #monsterdon

You know. Land crabs. #monsterdon

17 mins in and WE HAVE CRAB SIGHTING #monsterdon #attackofthecrabmonsters

ONE CRAB SPOTTED #monsterdon #crabrave

I want those two ensigns to die first

#monsterdon

Why she keep putting seaweed in her undies #monsterdon #attackofthecrabmonsters

OUR FIRST CRAB

normal-sized, though.

#Monsterdon

Quiet! Listen!

It's an iPhone with the 'keyboard noise' sound effect turned on!

#monsterdon

@gnomon Lots of single tank (compressed air, etc) are out there. Especially since they might not be going very deep. #monsterdon

Sex pest went in for a kiss while they’re both underwater and wearing diving masks? Wtf. #monsterdon #crabrave

*A dude's head was cut off.*
"Let's go scuba diving."

#monsterdon
#AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

TRIVIA ATTACK

Watch for a scene where Russel Johnson is in the water at Rocky Cove. He broke his toe making this scene and the movie medical budget allowed for a stage tech to tape the toe with gaffer's tape. Then back to filming!

#AttackOfTheCrabMonsters #Monsterdon

What amazingly clear water! And so many, many fish. One could almost assume they were filming in a big aquarium (they were).

#Monsterdon

A guy got instantly decapitated in these same waters. Let's Go Scuba! #Monsterdon #AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

#Monsterdon “Why did the writer stop in the middle of a sentence?” Well, at least he didn’t type “Aaaargh….”

Clearly the crab monsters are in the cave of eeeeeeaaaaauuuugggggghhhhhh #monsterdon #attackofthecrabmonsters

Oh dear Lord! "Why did the writer stop in the middle of a sentence?" Don't you know any writers? We'll stop in the middle of anything.

#monsterdon
#AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

I realize this movie predates Monty Python by like a decade and change, but are they really suggesting this guy Castle Aaargh'd his own journal? #monsterdon

score is nice and subtle. SFX not so much
CLACKCLACKCLACK

#monsterdon

ah, just the wind

What's the big deal, it's just the prop guy eating potato chips. #Monsterdon

That sound is beatnik crabs applauding. #Monsterdon

"...why did the writer stop in the middle of a sentence?"
"no idea, it doesn't make ... aaaahhhhhhhh!"

#Monsterdon #AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

Quoth @k8eb: "that is _quite_ the butt-chin" #monsterdon

This was filmed at somebody's holiday home, wasn't it?

#monsterdon

I think the ground shaking is neither atomic testing nor an earthquake. It's a giant crab rave! 🦀 🦀 🦀 🦀
