Arranged marriages are hard! #Monsterdon
Dad is actually talking about a Chess Game.
This is the worst couples therapy ever

"But I don't want to start smelling of ammonia and having my body dissociate as my babies eat their way out!"
Uhhh... guys... what happened to the homicidal Atlanteans who stabbed the Frog Man?

YES VIAN PLEASE COMMIT THEM ONE, AND ALL, TO THE SEA
yes please, commit them all to the sea. #monsterdon
The patriarch mandates mating #monsterdon
Wait. The peals are merman ejaculate and this is how they reproduce.
#Monsterdon π π‘ π π¦ π¬ π¦ π π³ π±
I want the seahorse statue!
Oh you thought we were done swimming?! WEβRE NOT #monsterdon
WHY are the mer people doing this? Bait the trap, kill them and move on.
"All the pearls can't look the same, we need some variety!" [throws in exactly three non-identical set pearls] "Okay, job done."
Nereus and Sirene are the only non-incestuously-born fish people, of course.
Sirene, Sirene, Sirene, Sireeeene
How often can you fool them with your clams
Incest isn't how you get beneficial adaptations, but thanks for bringing it up, I guess #monsterdon
'Murigao: Where "The Male Gaze" meets "The Innsmouth Look".'
Obviously, lady. If you knew more, you'd get out of this movie. #Monsterdon
The acting here was Shatner-esque. Truly inspired.
THE SECRET OF THE FISHFUCKERS
I checked the Sexism box when I heard the pearl dreams of those dudes. So one thinks he can buy a few broads, huh. The other one wants to get "his" off the streets. Bastards.
HAHAHA he asked what we were all thinking! Why don't they all have special eyes? #Monsterdon
Purchase list:
One fighting rooster
Several broads
Dang, all the men in this movie are trash #Monsterdon
"...how do you account for their eyes?"
"Must be from inbreeding."
"Huh, so they're royalty."
Could you make your connection more ... conCRETE? wakka wakka wakka #monsterdon
Aaaaaaaugh, they're minoans
Even if you do got it, I probably don't want it, Eddie. #monsterdon #beyondatlantis
@amyfou Surely you're not just realizing this now π

honestly this movie is not at all a good movie
@SnoopJ Only When Convenient Camera #monsterdon
@ottaross Thatβs βcause it was back when academics made a living wage, even before getting tenure #Monsterdon
Pretty into cocks for a straight guy. #Monsterdon #BeyondAtlantis
See this chief dude is far too diplomatic I would already be like "mind your own business you nosy little fuckers" #Monsterdon
I bet 90% of the out takes for this thing are the actors cracking up over those stupid eye prosthetics. #Monsterdon #BeyondAtlantis
she probably should have taken a picture of that statue, first. unclear if the camera is just not part of the movie now or what
that's right folks, don't get off the ride track. #monsterdon
"That convinced her, right? Sure. I'm so good at this."
Baby goat? Is this a Severance thing? #Monsterdon
What the heck??? First the roosters, now the goat???
Boo, movie #Monsterdon
The fish people must be pretty understaffed if the *king* has to pull guard duty
ZZtop "Pearl necklace" starts up #BadMovie #Monsterdon
Oh, right, plot. (that mask from the museum)
in 70s movies everyone is just damp and untrustworthy
PUT THE MASK ON NOW. #Monsterdon #BeyondAtlantis
First actual good outfit sighting.
#Monsterdon π π‘ π π¦ π¬ π¦ π π³ π±
but why did he have a bb goat?
Where is Octoman when we need him?
Oh right! That was the thing aside from the stupid fish eyes that struck me about this movie. Anthropology lady's black and white outfit is a great fit. I need to steal the clothes for some character design.
#Monsterdon #BeyondAtlantis
Wait, did he just throw a goat into a piranha pond?
wtf did that goat do to you #monsterdon #BeyondAtlantis
Practice, baby
I was a little curious, so I looked up the director. Freddie Romero is credited as the director of some 66 films from 1947 to 2008 #monsterdon
Well, I suppose that's one way to indicate the conversation is over. Just chuck a goat into a piranha pond.
the FUCK?
goat: yeeted
oi! goat-kun! #monsterdon
WELP #Monsterdon
GO ON, TELL THAT COLONIZER fam!!! #monsterdon
Silly frogman. You can't out swim fish people. #Monsterdon
"No you can NOT pet my goat"
*turns away*
FEAR MY GOOGLE EYES
The goat's the best character so far. #Monsterdon
You know what this film needs right now?
"No, I WON'T show you my pet monkey!" #monsterdon
HEY HOW COME WE NEVER GET LINGERING ASS SHOTS OF THE DIVERS #monsterdon
Those oysters may be great for pearls but they appear to be meat-less so won't do well at the oyster bar. (Plus they seem to be clams)
Shot on screen: Slowly picking pearls out of clams
The soundtrack: OONTZ OONTZ OONTZ MATRIX MATRIX MATRIX #Monsterdon
I grabbed the highres version I also have and it's different music that actually fits the rest of the music.
So this is probably copyright strike avoidance rather than rights loss
Out of all the mistakes the director of the film has made, maybe the biggest one was placing so much faith in his soundtrack. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon π π‘ π π¦ π¬ π¦ π π³ π±
why haven't they murdered these men with their spears already tho
The underwater score vs. the above-water score but both keep changing
the 70s must've been horrible. like the 2020s are horrible but imagine it with indoor smoking and no video games
It was Very Important for the people who made this #Monsterdon to establish that Fish People have superior posteriors
Someday the divers will find that synth player...
The ever-shifting soundtrack.
Sirene, Sirene, Sirene, Sireeeene
I'm begging of you, please don't raid my clams
#monsterdon blondeβs wavy sideburns are distracting
#monsterdon If she's not careful, she's going to pluck the Pearl of Venus, which of course will be a keystone macguffin that will GIVE US A PLOT TO FOLLOW.
@Zerofactorial @jeffron
We could do a documentary as a change of pace one week.
Or there is a fake Loch Ness documentary with Werner Herzog out there...
#Monsterdon #BeyondAtlantis
#monsterdon I had no idea pearl diving was so easy.
#monsterdon 42:00 Legally distinct Claire de Lune
#Monsterdon soundtrack: Vince Guaraldi Mode Engaged
the 70s geochache scene was actually kinda cool ngl
I like how Sirene's fake fur bikini looks like absolute shit underwater #monsterdon
If you've ever wondered why they never seem to have underwater fight scenes this #Monsterdon demonstrates why
#monsterdon Underwater savage fight. Nows the time to pick out continuity errors, like spotting a Indiana license plate. Yes, underwater, yes, off the coast of the Phillipines. That's normal, yeah?
#Monsterdon so how come the one lady has regular eyes
...they skipped to the funeral? Wat?
I wonder what West Eddie is up to
MURMAIDER MURMAIDER MURMAIDER MURMAIDER #monsterdon
#monsterdon Subtitles are kinda on point. Moody music. Music intensifies. I mean, we can call it music, but honestly it's spelled Muzak, right?
ugh, an underwater fight scene now.....
#monsterdon The budget's underwater on this film..
