@moira Yeah that is sadly not true of alot of our movies. But these people are trying to act and film a decent monster movie. They get one small gold star for that.

WHAT DID I TELL YOU get eaten butt-first, twerp #Monsterdon
"You heard the man, get crackin'!"
Like you in the storage room, sir? #Monsterdon
y'know _most_ of the people in this movie seem to have actually been trying
_failing_
but trying
#Monsterdon I think the fact I prefer modern sirens to this says a LOT
What horrific levels of ecocide are we about to witness in the name of a 70s monster movie?
He could have saved May, but he had to reel his fishing rod in first. I'm sure that May would understand... :blobthinkingcool:
If she's "overanxious" is the rest of the cast "underanxious"?
@bunnyhero #monsterdon
pitchforks, torches, and fish nets
My dad just woke up, squinted at the TV and asked "is that Sunny Bono?" #Monsterdon
A 70s guy who takes no for an answer (wrt to sex). That's an improvement
Not exactly a seed, not exactly an egg
But didnโt she say it wasnโt vegetable? #monsterdon #bog1979
Hand cranked siren on that firetruck? #Monsterdon And where exactly are they from? They sound almost "Canadian"...
#monsterdon Okay, okay we will make a Blood Scent Generator. Geez, this won't be difficult at all..
David Lee Roth was a walking joke, but as the front man for VH, he knocked it outta the park
@floatybirb honestly probably
if you're doing a felony check, wasn't that a thing in the 70s?
"Well goodbye, dummies."
Bastard stole my closing line for the film :/ #Monsterdon
bai gaehd. yeah, this was filmed in minnesota. #monsterdon
Wow. Van Halen started in 1973. That's a lot earlier than I thought. I was never a fan, but they did have some bangers. And everybody in that band was really talented. Just not my kinda music.
Is the bogmonster a giant crayfish??
Pitch Black had more monster in it.
What's that word for what some aquatic animals have, like their reproductive organs can kind of detach and go swimming around independently? I swear this is real

So 9 people dead from a monster killer, and the sheriff thinks a witness who saw it is crazy -- okie
80 year olds and scuba gear, what could you go wrong?
drinking on duty is GO
#Monsterdon I think I heard about angel dust on hit CW show Riverdale
Diver man to the rescue! Diver man AWAY! #Monsterdon
Okay, one of the characters had a fun monologue about what strange terrors could lurk in the vastness of a glacial lake, which are thoughts I have when I want cthulu to just show up and do something spooky.
Then some boomer teens on bikes are scared by a monster that I don't think we see. Then we get some other dudes we haven't seen before to don scuba gear and start searching the bog seaweed for the cancer bog monster.
bog monster poop
Bog eggs?
They're obligated to show the monster at some point. I bet it's brief and horrible. #monsterdon
He doesn't think about the glacial history of the bog.
#monsterdon Looks like someone's grandma had been illegally dumping old Christmas ornaments.
ah nothing like a languid monster movie
#monsterdon Cancer Tungsten Dracula is sure taking his time killing these guys,,
@jonny They're like the Quint from Jaws, the expert(s) brought in to destroy the monster, except they're divers instead of a big (not bigger) captain. They, too, are going to need a bigger boat. #Monsterdon #Bog
Bang sticks.
@moira #monsterdon They weren't even riding side-saddle!
oh right, they're the divers.
I wanna see the goddamn monster
"Glacial Lakes" -- don't think so
GLACIER MONSTER
I do kinda like the PoV from the backseat of the cars.
"It really turns me on when you say random sciencey words."
@strangefour "He's everything you want him to be!" #Monsterdon
Human-sized mosquito with lobster claws. Got it.
"Molybdeeum"
Close enough #Monsterdon
Is this science important to the movie? What's the bog monster up? Or the bog witch? What's she up to
#monsterdon
dang, the scriptwriter was actually trying with the cardboard science
#monsterdon Cells at Work! will take care of this threat.. that and a bone marrow replacement..
No Brad, peek into the MICROSCOPE
are these supposed to be the main characters? is that why there was a kissing scene?
"What do we tell the gentry?"
Gentry? The landed gentry are here? What is this England in the 1850s?
#Monsterdon #Bog
man if there is one known resident at a haunted lake and it is an 'old hag' adriana you should probably start your investigation by going and asking what the old witch knows #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Gentry? is this fucking REGENCY?
So they bomb the lake and then immediately leave? Good police work
Are you sure there's no Draculas in this movie? It's sounds like there are Draculas in this movie.
#Monsterdon
they're gonna have to get the national guard to roll in the maser tanks
Nice zoom on cop's nose
The cops use like 6 sticks of dynamite to blow the bog up, and I guess they think that worked. But it didn't work and just made the bog monster mad and now its eating people off camera, making Mr. Garibaldi mad.
#Monsterdon ๐ฎ ๐จโโ๏ธ ๐โโ๏ธ ๐ ๐ฑ
Corky and McWeeny?????
@SnoopJ I heard that as IBX, which I wasn't sure existed when this movie was made, so thanks for figure out what they said.
(also it's not explosive in the same way, so I was sort of confused why they would be using it for this)
What if the bog monster is a revolutionary and that's why the sherriff is trying to kill it
Mucous Producing Crystals is the name of my Steven Universe cover band.
are they dead? are they are they huh huh huh? #monsterdon
#Monsterdon ๐ฎ ๐จโโ๏ธ ๐โโ๏ธ ๐ ๐ฑ

The witch lady will subject you to her spoken word poetry if you threaten the Bog....
Oh, well then, by all means Mario Mario, go jump into the lake with a five pound bomb on your chest. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon The editor was asleep during that sex scene..
Is this a kissing movie!?
#monsterdon

So an ancient bog bug Dracula, chilling in its slime, aroused by dynamite. Neat. #monsterdon
Was the actor drunk and they just kept his flubbed line?! #Monsterdon
Ah, yes, a hypodemic nerdle.

#monsterdon
#Monsterdon and that's a wrap on Zero Sugar Torgo.
This one guy looks like Billy Crystal's half brother, fathered by Louis CK. #monsterdon
Wait. Why does the Torgo kinda look like Stephen King?
#Monsterdon #Bog

"...where does it sleep?"
"In the .... bogroom."
