"You have become not only a nurse but a servant! I shall miss you when you return to London" <--- ugh ugh ugh
Meanwhile, back at the sanitarium... #Monsterdon
@ryan Aha, of course. Thanks!
Jonathan is taking this killing of an acquaintance surprisingly well
#monsterdon I wish I could sleep so soundly.
Lucy is now Morticia Addams
#Monsterdon
if anything he seems aroused more than hesitant
#Monsterdon I bet when Dracula tasted Lucy after the tranfusion he felt kinda gay afterwards.
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970 Remember what I told youy. We jump out and yell, "Surprise!"
#Monsterdon I just got an ad on Tubi for a Fingerhut card. What the actual fuck, Capitalism?
So Lucy went to a Sisters of Mercy concert #monsterdon
#monsterdon That whistle is back, witout the trainβ¦
"The new hot drug on the street is called Lucy Wednesday. It's fentanyl mixed with charred nostril hair."
Great goth makeover #monsterdon
Was the zoom lens just invented before this movie was made?
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970
#monsterdon This movie must be Alex Jones' favorite one
Oh, good. Can we return the coffin for a refund?
These guys are all way too happy, just opening up coffins all willy nilly.
Dramatic! :ablobglarezoombutfast:
( I hope you have animated gifs turned on)
It's fine. She just went out for a smoke. #Monsterdon
@tuckerm we need to talk about draculas (stitch incoming) #monsterdon
@diazona They skipped the whole "Dracula's sea voyage to England" part from the book, which did save us all a lot of time, and saved a whole ship full of sailors, too. #Monsterdon #CountDracula
Lucy always had it in her. Why do you think she had no family? #monsterdon
I think I would time my vampire hunting so it happened during the daytime.
Getting late in the day? "Let's postpone until tomorrow."
#Monsterdon The Tubi ads are all $$$ specialty drugs. Still astounds me medical advertisements are allowed.
#Monsterdon βNot just a nurse but a servant.β Could you BE any more condescending, Dr. van Seward?
Oh she won't miss serving as your servant nurse trust me :ablobrollingeyes:
@steggy Everyone of them is dramatic hamster. #monsterdon
@RobynGoodfellow@mastodon.murkworks.net I know, isn't it awesome?
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970
βItβs just as a feared. A child found dead.β
Van Helsing? Just as you feared? If you feared this, and did nothing to stop it from happening, then you are culpable. You are a servant of Dracula! #Monsterdon
If you did a super cut of all the close in shots in this it would last like ten minutes. #Monsterdon #Dracula1970
Double close-up!!
Victorian funeral or goth party? #monsterdon
I just joined, but i forwarded to catch up. Those extreme ZOOMS are something else!
RFK Jr is one of them....
is there a go fund me so this movie can afford some different camera tricks. #ZOOOOOOOM #monsterdon
@wohali at least not nostrils this time!
honestly this movie would be better if they just cut everything except the shots where christopher lee is barreling the camera
Everyone was so chipper and happy getting their morning tea and then they saw the newspaper and remembered Dracula killed their friend. #monsterdon
the person i trust the least is that blue eyed mutton chop guy, just look at him, he's up to no good #monsterdon
#Monsterdon So many closeups of Lucy's nostrils. I'm not sure what that's supposed to convey.
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970 #CoffeeWatch We have a potention sighting. Repeat...potential sighting.

Day or night -- YOU be the judge!
#monsterdon
ENOUGH WITH THE ZOOMS JESUS H. CHRIST #Monsterdon
STAY AWAY FROM CHURCHES! #monsterdon
#monsterdon *Looks at Lucy*
Melania this you
Wow, that was a lot of sugar going into that tea.
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970
@adhdeanasl Van Helsing looking grim at Lucy's funeral like "You British don't know her death was NOT the worst thing to happen to Lucy ... or people around her, for that matter. #Monsterdon #CountDracula
"couple of white guys, breaking into a cemetery, what could go wrong?"
#Monsterdon π§ β°οΈ π¦ π± π
"What good are laws against someone who can set himself above the law?" <-- a question many USians are asking right now also
#Monsterdon Fun fact: goth gals bite.
more unnecessary zooms!!!! eyeballs.
Weβve reached the point in #monsterdon where my poor tiny fedi instance is choking and confused.
WE STILL HAVE 30 MORE MINUTES OF THIS.
#Monsterdon
Impressed into serviceβ¦
Wtf he called her a servant!
#monsterdon
Whoops, never mind, we're ending that scene mid-musical score. #Monsterdon
"Secrets of the black arts" this is sooo racist...
#monsterdon
Lucy just stealing children, as you do.
This whole film feels dubbed over. Am I missing osmething, was this an Italian production?
Apparently getting bit by the vampire turns you into Morticia Addams. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon love that they don't even try to do a bat transformation sequence
they just cut from man to reaction shot to window pane with shadow of bat on the other side :D
the camerawork is legitimately more interesting than the narrative in this movie
but enough of that tense scene. #monsterdon
I can't tell if the children are playing in the graveyard at mid-day or midnight. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon This movie is really about the dangers of greed. If Dracula had just been satisfied with Lucy, he'd have probably gotten away with it. π€
(Editted cuz I got the ladies names mixed up)
@SeanAloysiusOBrien It sounds like those old Holiday Inn ads where people would claim staying at a Holiday Inn gave them specialized experience. "No, I've never met the Count, but I did spend last night in a Holiday Inn last night!" #monsterdon
Why do I feel that a "Don't play in graveyards" instructional PSA is about to start? Did Coronet shoot this?
wednesday, what're you up to?
yea sure throw in some shaky-cam of a statue why not at this point
Frog spit water. Lol.
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970
#monsterdon Guys guys stop trolling Van Helsing. Hypertext and Obsidian were NOT a thing before okay??
"Maybe you work for Dracula"
"I've never met the Count. But I feel as if I know him better than my own soul."
Sure sounds like something someone who's been enthralled by Dracula would say!
Did they visit the Prague Cemetary or something? #Monsterdon
"what good are laws against someone who can set himself above the law" i have to assume that's from the book. also now i'm thinking fondly of the sequence at the end of Blackula where cops get beaned by a barrel and electrocuted and stuff #monsterdon
Incidentally I've been to Highgate Cemetery a few times and it is VERY Gothic, especially this time of the year...a must for Vampire Romance fans visiting the city
That little brat threw the ball directly into the fountain! #Monsterdon
Is that the full reaction to seeing a weirdo bat man biting your friend? #monsterdon
#Monsterdon βI know him better than my own soul.β Awww, theyβre soulmates!
- Sheβs dead!
- But youβre still alive!
Shocking. Absolutely shocking.
#monsterdon
You think I have trouble with vampires, you should see what clumsy French police inspectors do to me. #monsterdon
"I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle" (1990)
"And NOWWWW ... it's DEATH TIME!"
#Monsterdon Dracula opening the doors of that porch with taxidermied animals behind it deserves being a meme template.
Kinda pissed there was no Demeter sequence.
Hoping the movie based on that part of the book is good.
#Monsterdon
Van "Zoom" Helsing, they called him.
@ramsey also, it is far too late for anyone to start "acting" in this movie. #Monsterdon
see now saying you know dracula better than your own soul is not a great way to convince someone you're not draculas servant #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Seward channels the absent van Helsing via a book. At least weβre spared Helsingβs horrific accent.
"I have never met the count, and yet I feel I know him better than my own soul"
is not a particularly persuasive rebuttal to someone accusing that you are a servant of dracula
Have they considered calming down with these zooms?
"Why can we arrest this man?"
Cops are not the answer man. Especially not here.
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970
@jeffron isn't it? π
#monsterdon
"...I have never met The Count, yet..."
<zooom>
<zoooooooooom>
<zooooooooooooooooooom>
The prof is so short he has to reach UP to the fireplace mantle
@CactuarJoe I don't know how it is, but I'm liking it. It's working fine for me. #Monsterdon #CountDracula

Ah yes, the three types of beast: dog, bat, other #Monsterdon
...So wait, you had a book *intimately describing Dracula AND NAMING THE FUCKER* and yet you didn't believe Johnny when he told you what happened?
Prof, I think you may just be fucking stupid. #Monsterdon
