so far the scariest thing in this movie is how much everyone (including us) has to listen to a child screaming

#monsterdon

for the purposes of #monsterdonBingo the judges are ruling a mind controlled christopher walken "an alien" for the purposes of scoring squares where the aliens do things #monsterdon

#WalkenMumble #Monsterdon

Why are you shaking your kid to comfort him? Rocking =/= shaking.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Is this gonna be a maybe the dingo ate your baby situation?

#monsterdon

Not great direction so far

#monsterdon

@f800gecko I wouldn't worry about it too much. It makes about as much sense even if you have seen the start...#monsterdon

Facepalm of sound protection. #Monsterdon

@cherizilla 😂 ikr

#Monsterdon #Communion #EinaPlobe

“Honey, our new alien neighbors are partying too hard late at night! Will you go tell them to tone it down?”

#Monsterdon

turn off your high beams please

#monsterdon

Oh come on the clock is supposed to start ticking backwards when shit gets weird.
Aliens have magic wands? Oh no they're Potter fans.
#Monsterdon #Communion

great scream, kid.

#monsterdon #Communion1989

Whoa, he fingered him right in the face. That WAS God. #Monsterdon

spoopy #monsterdon

PROBED

Waiting for someone from Stargate to show up and tell the Asgardians to stop messing with the Normies.

#Monsterdon

Is that God #Monsterdon

FBI OPEN U

#monsterdon #EinaPlobe

I gotta say, we got to the alien a whole lot faster than I expected! #Monsterdon #communion1989

It woke the neighbors, who have some sort of part to play apparently. #monsterdon

What a threatening beam of sunlight. #Monsterdon

Walken looking totally bored at the intense lights streaming through every window simultaneously.

"What else ya got?!?"

#Monsterdon #Communion #Communion1989

There's a little guy

#monsterdon

alien plays peekaboo

#Monsterdon #Communion #EinaPlobe

Okay, but no lie, Walkin's face is kind of creepy, and so is the alien 👽 #Monsterdon #MonsterMiku #Communion1989

Yeah, I don't think this film is at all my thing. Oh well, I'll stick around for a bit.

Omnious music is ominous again. #Monsterdon

Dramatic music intensifies....

#Monsterdon

@Lazarou i believe the character is an asshole who's talking to furniture yes

#monsterdon

squatters

#monsterdon

#Visitors! #Monsterdon

ALIENS ALREADY #monsterdon #communion

ALIEN #monsterdon #communion1989

There seems to be an abstract painting of Statler and Waldorf in the cabin’s great room.

#Monsterdon

What a menacing closet. #Monsterdon

Oh they borrowed the "oooooooooooh" chorus from 2001

#monsterdon #EinaPlobe

#Monsterdon 🌌👽 🛸🫣 ⁉️ 👨‍⚕️ 😱

it's also a very nice Navajo blanket on the wall

"Out of all the aliens in all the world, I had to get the practiced house-breaker burgling me."

#Monsterdon #Communion #Communion1989

#Monsterdon $200 for letting your pie burn?

That's a bad policy. People will disconnect their smoke detectors.

horror movie where Christopher Walken is telling you to say erection #monsterdon

That clock is still not as cursed as the "time in alphabetical order" clock. #Monsterdon #Communion1989

Is this what happened to Zorin after he survived splashdown in San Fancisco?

#Monsterdon #Communion

"We got us a goddamned mansion!" —Tucker & Dale.

Walken is literally on drugs at all times. Normal people do not behave like him.

Andreas asks the important question: "Ghosts of the wolves that used to be here?" Yes.

Aliens like to push alarm code buttons, it seems.

I kinda dig the art deco arrows clock. More weird art, please.

#monsterdon #communion

Why the total freakout over a perfectly normal house spider? It's not going to hurt anything bigger than a fruit fly. Sigh.

#monsterdon #Communion1989

👽 🛸

#monsterdon #EinaPlobe #communion

That poor kid, traumatized at an early age by Calder.

#Monsterdon

Uh oh. The trouble light is on. #Monsterdon

"Deeyad? DAYad? DAAAAD!!!"

oh boy I hate this kid lol #monsterdon

So, when they pulled up to the cabin, was the alarm going off? How long had it been going off?

#Monsterdon

The best part of this #Monsterdon so far is that Christopher is being Very Walken

This dialog feels like theyre all just ad ribbing.

#Monsterdon

The alarm's going to play the Close Encounters theme in beeps, isn't it?

#Monsterdon #Communion #Communion1989

Okay, I promise I'll start making jokes as soon as something interesting happens. #Monsterdon

Oh, so that is Andreas Katsulis! I recognised his growl.

#Monsterdon #Communion1989

now we stittin und watchen das blinkenlichten

#Monsterdon

needs more theramin

#Monsterdon #Communion1989

Our dog just barked at that clock. 🤣

#Monsterdon #communion1989

#Monsterdon 🌌👽 🛸🫣 ⁉️ 👨‍⚕️ 😱

why is there a calder mobile in this cabin?

Ghost wolves don't seem very scary. #Monsterdon #Communion1989

we didn't even get to any creepy stuff yet and I already feel stressed by the fire alarm scene and the idea of this guy being part of my family #monsterdon

i don't want to watch heterosexual people's vanilla kinks for ten minutes

#monsterdon

stop wasting time characterizing the sacrificial couple, they only serve to provide the hysterical widow looking for her husband after he gets mutilated by the aliens #monsterdon

That is THE WORST clock.
#Monsterdon #Communion

“Old ball and chain”

Well, aren’t you the charmer

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Playing at 1.5x to catch up, it's making Walken seem extra-extra coked

damn, what a clock!

#monsterdon #Communion1989

Is this a camping double date #Monsterdon

So you wanna fool around? #WalkenRizz #Monsterdon

WTF is that clock #monsterdon #communion

The character that Walken is playing is a shitty dad. Just saying.
#Monsterdon

Trying to have a normal family scene of Walken being a normal human being just doesn't work. At best he's the weird uncle you invite to a party. At worst he's the uninvited neighbor who ends up being the killer at a cabin in the woods.
#Monsterdon #Communion

This guy believes in two things: wolves & ghosts. & he's all out of wolves. #Monsterdon

oh there's another inconsequential man there, i guess we know who's getting eaten first #monsterdon

s*cks
#monsterdon

Socks 😂

#monsterdon

so, does something eventually happen in this movie, or is it just Christopher Walken attempting to be funny?

#monsterdon #Communion1989

That spider might've been an alien, you never can tell these days.

#Monsterdon

Am just gonna pretend Walken is his The Prophecy character Gabriel, trying to live as a human. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon That fireman is really hamming it up huh

I'm getting strong Detective Conan vibes from this kid, like he's a 22 year old trapped in an eight year old's body.

#monsterdon

I thought the kid was screaming because there was a guy in with a camera in his room! #monsterdon

#monsterdon #EinaPlobe #Communion_1989

Can you say Erection? I'll never say it.

To the spider, the little boy is the alien!

#Monsterdon #Communion #Communion_1989 #Communion1989

You know, the dad is a real shit.

#Monsterdon #Communion1989

That kid sucks at acting.

#Monsterdon

That's racist against spiders. Also I heard "daddy longlegs" isn't technically a spider (I know someone will confirm/deny this) #monsterdon #communion

The spider is a (harmless) gravid female Pholcus of some kind. Common name, cellar spider.

#Monsterdon

Walken can never deliver a line in a normal way

normal line delivery is for cowards

#monsterdon

This spider play scene is not what I expected from Catholics. Even early Catholics. #Monsterdon

WE GOT.... SPIDER

#monsterdon

When does the Vivaldi start playing and the guy say he’s getting divorced? #Monsterdon

A cabin in the woods huh? What could possibly go wrong? #Monsterdon

Communion (1989) #Watching #Monsterdon https://letterboxd.com/imdb/tt0097100

Movie, you shouldn't tell the audience your passwords. #Monsterdon #Communion1989

A wood cabin on a forest. Nothing good happens in that kind of place in movie
#monsterdon

wow, a believable child actor delivered line

like, seriously, i'm super impressed

#Monsterdon

We're making failure to disarm codes a running gag this early on?
Chekoves keypad?

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiku #Communion1989

I can't remember if I've seen tonight's #Monsterdon before, Communion.

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/28774-communion

These first scenes certainly aren't ringing any bells. If I've seen any of this one, last time was likely when it was on non-premium cable back in the nineties.

So their plan was duck dinner with the neighbors then off to the mountains?
