With the cost of living in New York, can you blame them for having a side hustle?
I wonder what mental health is up to
Oooh, writers, the most terrifying person in a room. #Monsterdon
It really doesn't feel like there's enough time left in this film to resolve this. #Monsterdon #Communion π½πΈ
Look Whitley I didnβt want to get my colonoscopy either but you are being a big baby about it #Monsterdon #GetTested
Family Tradition!
@Lazarou OMG π LOL
@emma still better
Good of the aliens not to do a deep mind wipe, just Good Enough wipe
#monsterdon
Did he just put underwear on his face?
Went straight past the Cosmic Baby to the Irritating Infants
I wonder what logic is up to
i am one square away from bingo with "smooth chrome" but the aliens decided to make their spaceship look like a church in a goddamn abandoned mine instead of having a little class #monsterdon
Ummmmmmm
Thereβs not enough cocaine to explain this #Monsterdon
Then Strieber wakes up on a starship near Tau Ceti but he's Ryan Gosling and still has a probe up his butt.
What
are
the
aliens
doing
to
walken?

@Taweret only time they can get off from their regular jobs

why are those children dressed like that
Why is there behind the stage scene with their faces taken off?
#Monsterdon #MonsterMiku #Communion1989
so, he and his wife explored pegging, he didn't like it, but it injured his 1990's Toxic Masculinity so much that he decided it was an alien abduction instead?
Of course the moment it got interesting I had to do some actual work here at work. π
Are you kidding me right now?
That's... not where your mind is. #Monsterdon #Communion1989
I'll take "climactic anal probe scene interspersed with dolly zoom" I guess
Heated Alienry #monsterdon #communion1989
He's probing my.....mind #Monsterdon
Butt stuff enraged him. #Monsterdon
The #visitors have no bones, and they spend most of their time air typing. They have trouble keeping their feet on the ground too. #Monsterdon
"It looks like you're gonna sing White Christmas"
Err⦠what?
#Monsterdon #Communion1998
See, he put on more guy-liner for the alien abduction #Monsterdon
"It was like a Doctor Who episode. Only I'm a weird pervert kissing aliens."
I'm gonna use this line to get out of my responsibilities. #Monsterdon #Communion π½πΈ
That's not what they're probing. #Monsterdon #Communion
i mean, we're watching this movie like it was real.
if it wasn't for all the homophobic terror at the peak of the gray alien anal probing era then it would have been obvious that the reason for the rectal probes is to get a very rich biological sample of earth by collecting gut and fecal bacteria #monsterdon
Yep, smells like kobold
did he kiss the alien doing the Electroboom eyebrow thing
Naked greased up Christopher Walken dancing for tips #Monsterdon

the weird dancings are weird
Lotta flailing in this abduction
~~o.o~~
Dances With Aliens
Like that flying mechanical toy is oddly specific.
#Monsterdon #MonsterMiku #Communion1989
Dancing Walken and the disco greys~ AHAHAHAHA!
#Monsterdon #Communion
Now I'm thinking that Uncle Raccoon Hat just gave them all a really bad acid trip.
Heβs vibing #monsterdon #communion1989
#monsterdon good lord Walken has a strange body
Creepy bubble baths and slam poetry. Not on my bingo card. #monsterdon
WUT #Monsterdon
watch Walken summon the spirit of RFK Jr
This soundtrack is something else. I just watched Days of Thunder earlier this week, and it's like the scenes where Tom Cruise Is Feeling Sad.
How many different types of aliens are there? #monsterdon #communion1989
alien orgy scene
They should have hired the Jim Henson Company for this tbh
#Monsterdon #Communion1989
We will not let you go! #Monsterdon #Communion1989
I think Iβve had this conversation. There may have been psychotropic substances involved. #Monsterdon
There's that low-fi synth again. Careful what you wish for, I guess. #Monsterdon #Communion1989
Where the fuck did this jack in the box thing come from
let's go baby more marching blue guys you still got 30 minutes to redeem yourself by making the movie exclusively marching blue guys #monsterdon
Why do I feel like having mashed potatoes?
That jittery floating doll is the only legit scary thing in this movie.
#Monsterdon #Communion
@nev is "no" an option
I must have seen TV ads for this when it was new. How would you even do TV ads for this film??
@nev Alien dongs. All shapes and sizes.
Walken literally acting his ass off.
Wifey too, drop the kid from the plot, obv.
Skinimax this shit.
Everyone's homes in cramped rat central New York are WAY too damn nice. Shrink has vast tracts of floorspace.
Anne, Lindsay Crouse, is an *exceptionally* awful actress at this regression scene. It's like the Andy McDowell torture scene in Hudson Hawk, but that was funny. This is just⦠awkward.
Fog machines! "I am the dreamer, you are the dream!" Weird toys flying around. Yeah, man, David Lynch loves this.
A Walken clone! Speaking in poetry. With is Jawa backup dancers.
#Monsterdon #Communion
Whitley Strieber's Twin Peaks #Monsterdon
What they aren't telling you is that Whitley's neighbor in the montains is Clark W. Griswold.
someone needs to teach the aliens about hide-n-seek. You have to hide behind someone that can... hide you. #Monsterdon #Communion π½πΈ
He has not once said "alien" this whole time. Just noticed...
"I am the dreamer. You are the dream. Goo goo goo joob"
Strieber has a gun, the aliens have a NDA (And the best lawyers in the sector.)
relax, deep sleep, let the camera pan.
"I have a gun" reminds me of Die Hard, a far better movie.
Challenge: given this material (stereotypical alien abduction, details only revealed later under hypnosis, guy and family go on to live normal-ass life IRL), how would you make a compelling movie out of it? You may keep Christopher Walken.
I never saw this as a kid because I was a dumb child and the trailers for this seemed scary. I don't go see spooky movies in theaters. But omg as an adult this is so silly and boring.
#Monsterdon #Communion
does the acting in this movie qualify as "tragic misunderstanding" for bingo purposes? asking for a friend.
To all the suckers who voted for this movie in the poll: The producers gambled you'd see Walken and buy in. That's what he was paid for.
@JoeWynne or maybe an alien just forgot his wristwatch on Walken rectal part
#monsterdon
#communion1989
is the remaining runtime here just back-to-back hypnosis sessions?
I canβt believe Iβm saying this but there arenβt ENOUGH alien probes in this movie #Monsterdon
@jivens i always want nice PJs.
Little Doctors? Is this going to be an Ender's Game crossover? Because the aliens blowing up the planet would be a satisfying end...
#Monsterdon #Communion1989

these people need to lay off the waterfowl
#Monsterdon Why do they keep having adult conversations with the kid in the room?
"there was somebody else"
smash cut to New York.
i mean... was New York in the cabin with them? did New York try to kill her child?
He's too young to be hypnotized, that's a grown up treat; #Monsterdon
#monsterdon #EinaPlobe #Communion_1989
Walken has nice pjs that I covet.
We don't like it either. #Monsterdon #Communion1989
If you read that sentence wrong, it sounds like it's about bad vajazzling
Thereβs a lot of hypnosis in this movie #monsterdon #communion1989
AcTiNg! #monsterdon
That was a very shouty hypnosis session
"It's like something is happening to him" except nothing has ever happened in this movie #Monsterdon
