how fucking big are the rats in New York that the cops need a flamethrower squad
#monsterdon
A Douche wearing an Izod shirt?
Peak #80s
if they removed every time someone repeated the other person's words or asked "what?" this movie would be only half as long. #monsterdon
"They're coming out of the walls!"
"Where's the sarge?! Where's the sarge!"
*alien screams
Boy howdy g-man you gotta be a Royal First Class Bastard to out-bastard a New York cop #Monsterdon
@ricci The dude was a total bro.
I think the suburbs are scarier than the urban center, frankly.
we only get to see the reflection on his helmet #monsterdon
Who brings a camera to a flamethrower fight?
#monsterdon
#C.H.U.D.
#monsterdon Okay I kinda like Bosch too lol.
the nypd flamethrower squad
How I expect them to show up when I call an exterminator. #monsterdon
@akamran I lived through it! It was definitely a quarter in the 80s, at least in Chicago, and at least by 1981.
Cops with flamethrowers'd be a lot more believable after 9/11. #Monsterdon
I can't wait until the monitor shows there's something down there
#monsterdon
@nantucketebooks hahaha that's fantastic
"My man has a flamer thrower" is quite the flex. #Monsterdon #CHUD
@Cherizilla Have you considered going into the lucrative field of being a spooky semi-governmental tail?
@ramsey well to be fair someone said quarterpounder but he was too hungry to listen to the whole word! #Monsterdon
Man it's a freaking CHUD Smörgåsbord. Soup's on fellas! #Monsterdon #CHUD
#Monsterdon 📸 🧟 🧟♂️ 🧟♀️ 🗽 💩 😱
Terrible monitors by Sony(tm)
ewww he ate a quarter #monsterdon
Cooper the photographer is no longer part of the movie. He's getting ready to move to the suburbs #Monsterdon
they're gonna go too fast in the sewers and hit an unexpected fatburg
I have a schedule conflict that prevents me from participating in #monsterdon
But I absolutely love watching all these folks relive my youth. :flan_hearts: I have such fond memories of CHUD!
why are the literal ski boots with "Scott" still on them main characters in this movie #monsterdon
#monsterdon he did it MYYYYYYYYYYYYT WAYYYYYYYYYYY! *Frank Sinatra
@gortbrown For a couple hours every Sunday these are basically the same thing 😂
Protective ski boots! #monsterdon #monsterdon
"Dressed in the Rags of a Bowery Bum" is a lesser-known Belle and Sebastian song.
Bowery bums should not be confused with Chelsea bums.
#Monsterdon
Maybe the Flukeman from X-files can join with the C.H.U.D #monsterdon
Hanging chud, maybe don't eat tinsel!? #Monsterdon
@SRLevine that's basically what my entire Mastodon account is. #Monsterdon
I appreciate that the NRC guy looks like he hasn't gotten a full nights sleep in 20 years
#monsterdon
"Chud?"
I don’t mean to kink shame, but eating change from a pay phone while someone watches is a new one.
uh, is this a pickup? why did they stare at each other like that? didn't know phone booths were cruising spots in the 80s... #monsterdon
Oh hey, it's the Leechman from The X-Files. #Monsterdon
Are they going to kiss at the phone booth.
We need these face masks for covid era
I feel like we could have so much fascinating political discussion around this whole eco-horror/progressive-horror genre #monsterdon #chud1984
Oh it's dead? So we're all good now? Movie ends? Gas company saved the day. #monsterdon
Phone BASTARDS #monsterdon
Alligator polo! It's definitely the 80's
did he just swallow a quarter‽
Narrator: "Hey! That's the name of the show!"
@wohali ...I think so?
C'mon we've seen lots of things that would bite a man's leg, they're not all tunnel monsters #monsterdon
"...you know eating coins is bad for your digestion."
I love how everyone's like so non-reactive after learninga bout CHUDs. #monsterdon
#monsterdon okay, they kept denying some things I suppose!
NO WAY IT'S THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE!!!
#monsterdon
Fashion photog wants to do something "relevant"? There's a famine happening in Ethiopia, buddy. Do some real photojournalism.
@faoluin
Except on those suburb farms with the educated pigs...
#monsterdon #C.H.U.D.
It's CHUD time!!
So busted. #Monsterdon #CHUD
"No, can't be "it's not important," that's not C, H, U, _or_ D.
Imagine thinking that counts as long hair.
"have a nice day"
lololol
#monsterdon
"A.J.", sure Marv
C.H.U.D.
#monsterdon
Whoah! That's one of the future bad guys in Sneakers!
TITLE DROP
You're blind buddy #Monsterdon
“This can go no further than this room …” #Monsterdon
"What are you trying to hide!?" My gag reflex, right now. #Monsterdon
Taking his ski boot and going home.
#monsterdon #chud

Chekov's ski boot #monsterdon
"We're gonna do things MY way: becoming C.H.U.D. food!" #monsterdon
"EAT IT!" #monsterdon
Eat it! (eat it!)
Eat it! (eat it!)
Talk about the CHUDS or beat it!
obsessed with how marv is running this meeting now this rules #monsterdon
I'm supposed to be washing dishes and making syrup but I am GLUED to the screen
Marv is so dead. #CHUD #monsterdon
#Monsterdon wow, guess it didn't take that much to make these powerful dudes quit denying everything...
@CactuarJoe I hope so #monsterdon
where is this "ok word list" they talk about? #monsterdon
"Trying to have a nice day in the Park with my girlfriend and this guy follows me around with a notebook...."
he wanted to do something _relevant_, I see we have some tasty 60s leftovers in this cript
@yatsu yabbut a little at a ... time ... --dad #Monsterdon
@moira @kshernandez the guy on the left was in Sneakers! 👍
#monsterdon man these smash cuts.
Not wanting to raise a baby in 80s NYC? The NYC of this movie? I wouldn't want to walk a dog in this NYC. Exhibit A: this movie.
#Monsterdon #CHUD
All freelance reporters are named Murphy. #monsterdon
@starkraving666 you bet she is, and that is why everyone was already in love with her before the movie even started #monsterdon
Where is spiderman?
Hooray, monster sighting at last (after ad delays 😢)
