Did they teach in 1970 film school that you must zoom in every time the word Dracula comes up on screen? #monsterdon
#monsterdon DID YOU GUYS SAW THE DOCTOR DOING THE DRAMATIC CHIPMUNK MEME DID YOU SAW HIM. Gosh I'm terminally online
@CactuarJoe Catching up on #Monsterdon: I missed the first ~fifteen minutes of #CountDracula but touched down a couple of times. Looks like they included some of the "Dracula's Guest" short story but ... used shaggy German Shepherds instead of wolves. Did they think we couldn't tell? Also, when the Count turned into a "bat" they used a hawk instead? ... right around 29:30, he could have ended the movie RIGHT THERE but he didn't know about staking, just went into a panic and ran out the window?
@SRLevine but every time i look up, they are zooming in on something #Monsterdon
So they shipped his damaged body from Budapest to the newly bought Clinic outside of London
Look, when we said macaroni pictures, we didn't mean use a can of Chef Boy-ar-dee!
And the Chief Inspector makes his appearance. #Monsterdon
There, there, a little morphine will clear up those delusions youβve been having. #Monsterdon
Dracula, you say? ZOOM IN #monsterdon
"Have you made inquiries?"
Yes, the restaurant does deliver. They do not, however, do Margarita Mondays. I'm sorry, doctor. #Monsterdon
Iβve never seen anyone inject a hypodermic needle quite like that. #Monsterdon
That Herbert Lom serves up some FACE, yβall. What a badass look in those eyes. You know this dude is Dracβs doom.
#Monsterdon
note to self go back and do this after the movie @SnoopJ

#Monsterdon Cut back to London. Fastest way to travel. Also, βGiant bats! Why donβt you believe me!β
We are now at Dr. Van Helsing's clinic...
honestly it's probably unfortunate that this is my introduction to the main sequence of the dracula plot #monsterdon
Is this the first #monsterdon with Klaus Kinski?
#Monsterdon π§ β°οΈ π¦ π± π
It woulda been great if the Doc had introduced himself as 'Dr. Akula'
Poor kid. He's got a bad case of "bat crazies." #monsterdon
hey! it's inspector dreyfus again! hi~ #monsterdon
I think #Monsterdon #CountDracula1970 just crashed the SDF instance.
How are you supposed to know if it's day or night in this movie? Cues in dialogue are obviously useless.
LEPUS! Giant ---- oh. Wrong movie.
(Renfield screaming)
"Why don't you believe me!?"
Dude I didn't say anything one way or the other, chill. #Monsterdon
yes yes, bats are real. let's get you back in bed, grandma
Giant bats!!!! The bats were real!!!! #monsterdon
Dr My Uncle Bought Alaska?
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970
"This land belongs to me"
I think you mean "This land belongs to you and me" Mr Guthrie.
Sorry people, my brain seems to not be able to focus at all tonight. I mean I'm usually not at my best for this activity, but this is pretty bad even for me.
Captain America tone: "So, you have been sent to vampire detention..."
@CactuarJoe to be fair, you would too, if it was filmed from the inside. #monsterdon
@Taweret why the hell wouldnβt you? #Monsterdon
Oh no the count that doesnβt have a mirror reflection and left two bites on his neck might be a vampire! #monsterdon
OMG THE HORROR!
Dracula sleeps with his eyes open. Also he's some kinda goth.
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970
Man, dude's got a *cavern* of a nose #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon Well, he blew the lid off of this case. (And put it right backβ¦)
Meanwhile, Dracula's dentist:
"DAMMIT DRACULA! How many times do I have to tell you? Brush. After. Bite.
Do you want me to have to put a filling in that fang?"
there's nothing fundamentally wrong with sleeping in a giant stone box and it doesn't even really tell you much about someone if you figure out they do that #monsterdon
ZERO nose hair!
Yeah, no way youβre lifting that stone lid up, my dude. #monsterdon
"...and you were there, and you were there, and..."
"come little children..."
#WrongMovie #monsterdon
I wanna see an edit of that reveal where the music fades out and becomes muffled as he closes the coffin
Drac, y'got a little... A little, uh. Napkin? #Monsterdon
Oh haha, they didn't have to decorate the castle set cuz it's all packed up for the move π
*pipe organ keysmash* #Monsterdon
jeez, rude, let the man sleep. #monsterdon
Harptopus time?
#Monsterdon #CountDracula1970
the lopsided candles on that canedelabra are driving me insane
Just don't ask how those candles are made...
@socketwench Definitely. It's giving me a headache.
#Monsterdon #CountDracula
Referring to Dracula's from now on as #TransylvaniaMasquitoes
yes, the harpsichord is being played by an octopus off camera. yes, it is
How long d'you think it took a prop guy to get those candles properly dribbly? #Monsterdon
I might have to take out my hearing aids. This soundtrack is wreaking havoc on them. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon Sorry Harker, youβre not the wall-crawler of this movie.
Dude needs to find that f-ing Guqin musician so he can get some sleep.
Oh yeah you got to watch out for them transylvania mosquitoes don't you know
OMINOUS CANDLES #monsterdon
The spacing on those bites is all wrong. Much too far apart for a human mouth.
You can all back away from me slowly now, I'll understand. Though if anyone wants to have a discussion about how vampire fangs have to have a blood groove I'd be up for that!
#monsterdon I want my baby back... riiiibs... barbecue sauce!
Day for night, drink. #Monsterdon
Legit you can create a chart based on how close the wives get to Smash Jonathan on every movie
βThe candles in this candelabra represent Christopher Leeβs majestic lower teeth!β
#Monsterdon
@allanb It's 'cause they used spiderweb as diffusers
#Monsterdon Really big spiders and trapped in your room. Looking ... not good.
i am just engaging with the real estate foundation of this dracula movie, this is all text in the movie as long as the protagonist is a real estate agent #monsterdon
@Crazypedia he hasn't even been added to the listserv!
#Monsterdon Man, the mosquitos around here are NASTY. π¦
It appears to be one chain now, I swear when it was buttoned up it looked like two discrete chains. Maybe it's one really long chain and he looped it over the bottom button so his undercarriage wouldn't scrape against the floor as he walked. #monsterdon
And will you dig these fantastic hickies? #Monsterdon #Dracula1970
#Monsterdon π§ β°οΈ π¦ π± π
I'm just gonna note that Jonathon has had all kinds of warning that this was a bad idea and he's asked basically zero questions so I'm fine with the fact that he's vampired.
Get back he's not been integrated into the polycule yet
My brain is incapable of watching this movie without hearing Pantera's "Avoid the Light" playing constantly in the background.
BOY YOU GOT NIBBLED IN THE NIGHT #Monsterdon
The children of the night are some doggies. #monsterdon
They zoomed in on the spider. That must be who's responsible for all the cobwebs!
@Taweret they add atmosphere #monsterdon
i want my baby back
Gimme my Baby Back Baby Back Baby Back ribs!
Oh we have ghosts now
the audio department really just kinda doing whatever with this one
"Bat!" poof flash
where did these ladies come from. like i know from vampire lore but also WHERE DID THESE LADIES COME FROM #monsterdon
#Monsterdon as every vampire knows, babies are the most delicious
#Monsterdon Itβs not the cough that carries you off, itβs the coffin they carry you off in. β°οΈ
I thought that annoying high pitched ringing would never end. It made my tinnitus seem like childβs play. #Monsterdon
seriously, drac, it would take you like ten minutes with a duster to deal with those giant cobwebs on everything
@neia "Would monsieur like an apertif? It's wafer thin..."
These vendors are known as Spirit Halloween now #monsterdon
The whole Dollar Tree Han Solo thing makes me laugh #monsterdon
As someone who also dislikes spiders and bugs immensely, I understand deciding to sleep on the floor. #monsterdon
Where the coffins are hers and hers and hers... three's company too.. #Monsterdon #Dracula1970
Okay, that was a pretty good sequence. π― to the movie.
1/3rd of a baby, that's like a vampire crash diet #monsterdon
