#Monsterdon I believe I watched an alternate version of C.H.U.D. in 1985 (or 86). I saw two differences: first, when Lauren cries for help at the apartment window, somebody screams back "call the Ghostbusters!". The other one is a scene showing some surviving CHUDs walking down a street, and the movies credit starts rolling. Is my memory playing tricks on me?

Anyway, great Monsterdon pick!

I love these characterizations. They're goofy, but quite believeable in this movie's fiction.

Anyway, A.J. is walking around in a basement. I'm sure he'll be fine, though.

So are the C.H.U.D.s alpha-emitters? The NYPD crowd-control flamethrower gear isn't rad-hard, surely, so we can rule out gamma for sure.

Maybe it could also be some gas that emits betas, too, but seems the focus is on alphas with this gear.

Wet Bandit saves the day and foiled the evil G man's plans!

The G Man was the real monster all along!

THE END

The CHUD Zombies are safe and a young couple can now start a family of Zombie-resistent offspring!

Vehicle crash go BOOM I think it was a prerequisite for movies and TV in the 1970s and 1980s to normalise the Ford Pinto or something I dunno #Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe@retro.pizza Because transporting it to Canada costs money, and he couldn't get permits to even move the stuff through NYC. It was presumably generated in the city. The guy promised he could remove it for cheap, couldn't, and instead of confessing he just did whatever made him the biggest profit.
