"I have arrived." #monsterdon
oooooooKAY
Even with just the overt crocodile danger, WHY would you jump into the lagoon alone with no witnesses!
They must be in the dry and temperate part of the Amazon based on her hair / makeup.
#Monsterdon π π¦πΈππ§ββοΈ π±
I think that David was β inexplicably dry!
This whole movie looks like some stock footage and everything else done on a soundstage
#Monsterdon
"produced some important findings" is code for "overloaded the ship's septic tank." #monsterdon
Oh Kay!!
Thatβs a gorgeous swim suit. 10/10, would purchase similar #Monsterdon
#monsterdon And here we see in their natural habitat, the single-tanker and the double-tanker. AND THE MONSTER.
That's right, don't tell ANYONE you're going into the water
"What's it like down there?"
"Like another world."
"I'd like to see it."
"Silly girl, women can't swim! They're water soluble!"
ah yes, a woman is on screen, cue the violins. (-_-)
#Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon no lifeguard on duty
damn i thought she was about to break out into a disney song for a second there π₯΄
#monsterdon
Ut oh, right, go for a swim! Creature alert!
How does she keep all that makeup on
#monsterdon
I'd be mad if someone came down and started plucking stuff out of my carefully tended riverbed garden too
#Monsterdon #TheCreatureFromTheBlackLagoon
"hey your ambition is showing" #monsterdon
First view of the creatureβs face! (Right after they stole his flower). #Monsterdon
Imagining this from the Creature's point of view
"Who are those guys?! Why are they blowing so many bubbles?! That's not normal!"
Creature paw.
What's For Dinner (tm)
I thought he wanted to play doctor, not house.
@sean Is that what the kids are calling it these days? That's what I'm gonna start calling it.
"About Mark..." What do you think about threesomes? #Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon
oh some slimy sea weed...thanks
*mumbles* stupid slimy
#Monsterdon
#monsterdon The black lagoon, voted most vulnerable to sharts.
try to understand
mark's an asshole but his family provides allllll the money
#Monsterdon Thanks.... it's very... pretty? Girl you can do better
"When are they gonna get to the fireworks factory" vibes rising. #monsterdon
Weβre almost a third of the way through this movie, and so far, itβs a movie about underwater paleontology.
"How was it down there?"
"Wet."
That is some of the stiffest seaweed I've ever seen
"...I brought you back some swamp asparagus"
#monsterdon
You kids get off my lawn (in a manner of speaking)...
i like the monsterdons where the monster plays a bigger role β:neocat_laugh:β #Monsterdon #TheCreatureFromTheBlackLagoon
Remember, when surfacing from a depth of 10 feet, come up slowly to adjust to the pressure. #Monsterdon
@amyfou me too! especially in 3-D! #monsterdon
I make those same bubbles in the tub.
This is equivalent to a Roger Corman walking scene, except it was in 3D in theaters with those cheap glasses
Every since this film, a giant Bowie knife has been required equipment for scuba diving. #monsterdon
Hell yeah
Is the gillman the first movie monster with big kissable lips?
#Monsterdon #CreatureFromtheBlackLagoon
That's a weird looking rock he just picked up. I'm starting to think this joker has no idea what he's doing.
This scene could be a lot shorter...
Dramatic knife pull...to collect a water plant.
@cs Looking for rocks? I guess? #monsterdon
No one will be seated during the river garbage harvesting scene. #monsterdon
"...hi, I'm Mr. McGill, please put my rocks back."
face shot!! we gotta face shot!!!
That Amazon water is awfully clear. You know, for a black lagoon. Just sayin'. #Monsterdon #BlackLagoon1954
The boat _only_ has a womanβs shower and laundry facilities.
oh had it bookmarked
https://void.rehab/notes/9kung42nr3lkrodj
#monsterdon
#monsterdon I'm gonna say this, the aquatic plant life and bluegill in glorious 3d are well worth the motion sickness and inability to see anything else in the room-
okay, and as if on queue we get a 3d aquagrinch, I take back the snark.
#CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon1954
#monsterdon this like like his back garden. they're tresspassing.
#Monsterdon MY PLANT!!!
Tension stings with nothing happening are tight!
this black lagoon has rather clear waters. who the hell named it?
#Monsterdon
Monster!
#Monsterdon
If they can't find the rest of the sample, it's obvious the only answer must be that the fossilized arm was gillman's own arm, which he grew back, but never got over loosing in the first place, and left there was a reminder of the time he was too stupid, got drunk and had a unpleasant date with a giant sloth.
"... so we can match them with the sample in the lab. Don't you know ANY archaeology, mister riverboat captain!"
#monsterdon
We have a full frontal merman sighting!
CHeck out the gills on that guy.
#Monsterdon #CreatureFromtheBlackLagoon
I'm gonna make those danger horns a ring tone that plays anytime the caller is "Unknown caller" or "Spam Risk" #Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon
#Monsterdon I thought he was gonna pants that guyβ¦
Just as I was getting bored with the underwater monotony, ....... MANBUTT!!!
I lost track of what the heck theyβre doing swimming around down there. #Monsterdon
This is fascinating and a rabbit hole I will be going down later: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium%E2%80%93lead_dating
So far, they mostly seem to be finding danger flutes beneath the surface of the lagoon. And an occasional danger trumpet.
Now, waitaminute....THIS ISN"T THE SHAPE OF WATER!
@north biblically accurate lagoon creature.
Everyone else is pretty grimy but Kay is pristine for being out in the jungle for a week #monsterdon
He looks aghast. "I can't believe you humans just grabbed that plant out of my front yard!"
I promise you have to be smarter than that to successfully maintain a large boat and accompanying charter business
ope, got my Fish square

@SordidAmok deep question
#monsterdon
Creature sighted!
exposition for those who weren't getting it
#monsterdon
#monsterdon The visibility is pretty good.
I like the way blondie's head is the same shape as a Dragon Quest slime underwater. #Monsterdon
Monster!!!!
#monsterdon
MONSTER!!! #Monsterdon
As usual, this west coast kid is missing #monsterdon, because even the silliest horror movies assort badly with dinner (minestrone from all-CSA veg, with pesto, ditto.) And I have choir practice (soprano 1) because the High Holidays are imminent. Creature from the Black Lagoon!!! Bummer.
Look at these fish
@nev lots of shots-for-3D
βAll you do is aim it and squeeze.β
Uhhhhhβ¦why are you looking at her when you say that?
Creepy from the Lagoon.
Oh right. My movie time snacks. Apple pie I made late last night after picking apples in the dark from a tree with a cat in the branches.
#monsterdon #creaturefromtheblacklagoon
where's that rating the rocks thread when you need it
#monsterdon
The "canceled remakes" section of this movie's wikipedia page is so long lol. Too bad Alex Kurtzman's didn't pan out, could've kept him off Star Trek. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon bro he is a fisherman just answer the question normally
I'm seeing A LOT of small fishes and hear dramatic music.
BUT THERE IS NO CLAW.
#Monsterdon
Was this the first 3D underwater shoot? #monsterdon
omg i went to get ice cream whatd i miss
#monsterdon don't have to be condescending to him.
@Newpa_Hasai It wouldn't be #Monsterdon if they thought about stuff like that
There he is! The fish-man of the hour!
Very nice lagoon, would dive again for science reasons
