Looks like she's serving Wonderbread #monsterdon

Ladies and Gentleman, Drew Barrymore there! *round of applause for the child

#monsterdon

🎙️Stop! And by "stop" I mean execute a 3 point turn in a giant 50s car and drive back the way you came, keeping a low profile and NOT, at any time, looking like a radioactive ambulatory corpse

#Monsterdon

@ottaross something is definitely going to happen to Penny #Monsterdon

"How come you never got married, Uncle Dave?"

Munchkin we can't talk about that in the 1950s. #Monsterdon

lol, get the child to open the door to strangers...don't blame her, she's drunk, what does she know?! #monsterdon

#monsterdon #CreatureWithTheAtomBrain Okay, so I don't think the conclusions that the movie has decided are correct are really logical in this situation. Like, I think if the fingerprints matched a dead person I might just assume that they got the prints wrong, or they did the match wrong or someone was using a dead man's hand to throw them off with fake prints.

Also I probably wouldn't jump from "this crime scene is radioactive!" to "OMG the killers are radioactive zombies!"

lol, where has that fucking child been? The local bar?!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I want to read the funnies. "The paper didn't come today honey. Also Nancy died of whooping cough"

its best our daughter learn about the killer zombies from her friends at school

#monsterdon

@allanb they paid extra for the face #monsterdon

Remember, plastic sheeting will provide plenty of protection from radioactive materials. #Monsterdon

These days if it were 'mob killings' and 'radioactive emissions' I'd be thinking the Russian Mob.
The one Giuliani lives in fear of

#monsterdon

I thought the frog leg thing was by Luigi Galvani, not Faraday #medicine #monsterdon

Waving his pipe around like a knowledge-dick.... #monsterdon

Eight bodies have disappeared from the morgue.
If you happen to see any, please call 888-zombies.
#Monsterdon #creaturewiththeatombrain

#monsterdon I can't stop looking at all the hats on the rack

#monsterdon The fellow with the black hair conspiring with the accented scientist is wearing a suit jacket with a very strange cut to it. What's with those sleeves? They look like pant legs.

That is one ill-fitting suit on our head villain. Costume budget was very small.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Dude has his tie tucked into his belt?

DICK CUTTING?!

#monsterdon
#CreatureWithTheAtomBrain

#monsterdon Not confused. The detective is the one wearing the hat

Every body stands so close to the radioactive source, smart hat wearing guys

#monsterdon

@Zerofactorial

Clearly a communist

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Wos those cops look really dumb

McGraw kinda slow on the draw which is pretty ironic. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon #CreatureWithTheAtomBrain we get a surprise Makeout Sequence in Wedlock between Jed or Jeff or whatever his name is and the First Girl We Have Seen. We needed to meet the movie's quota of horny.

#monsterdon #CreatureWithTheAtomBrain That the good guy scientist doesn't even have a lab coat, but rather a business shirt without a jacket. This is to show the audience that he is part noir cop and can just put on a hat and jacket to transform from scientist to detective.

Although like... scientists kind of are detectives though; just detectives of reality and not specifically detectives of crimes.

"Let him find out what he's missing!" Movie just got more interesting

#Monsterdon

Is he strong? Listen bud, he’s got radioactive blood.

#Monsterdon #TheCreatureWithTheAtomBrain

how come we aren't naming guys chet anymore, have we fallen so far

#monsterdon

oh no, children! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Chet is dangerously douchey. What a horses ass. I love it. LOL.

#monsterdon

Reporters: bark bark bark bark bark

"Why is it luminous?" Wrong question. Why are you standing so close to it? #monsterdon #CreatureWithTheAtomBrain

#monsterdon #CreatureWithTheAtomBrain science and suit guy don hazmat suits to inspect some other zombie guys who are hooked up to IVs, and we get a science explanation that these guys can't be kept alive for too long and "the brain always dies first!" Anyway, if I'm a university, I'm not approving their request for a research grant.

THAT IS NOT HOW TAX BRACKETS WORK

#monsterdon

oh great this atom brain guy has got a natural language interface, tech bros ruin everything #monsterdon

Ohhh, he's like a drone- zombie
I do hope there aren't any Tech Bros watching tonight for the Torment Nexus #monsterdon

"I promised to see you die and I will"
#Monsterdon #CreatureWithTheAtomBrain

launching my #monsterdon thread for #CreatureWithTheAtomBrain !

My commentary might be more sparse today, but I'm still excited for the robot zombie brains directed by Nazi mafia kingpens or whatever this movie is about.

[guy busts through window while guy is on the phone talking about financials]

Ahhh, this is what conservatives assume the tax system is like.

#monsterdon

I think a lot of the 20th century's oil went into their hair #monsterdon

nobody will ever look behind the picture for that safe, nobody #monsterdon

up and atom! #monsterdon

I'm assuming in 1955 the "atom brain" doesn't have the connotation that has now, like a really tiny brain, but rather maybe 'atomic' brain - like A-Bomb related? I dunno.

#monsterdon

@jammerb

Something with a single atom brain? Quick! get it on the ballot for president immediately!
#monsterdon

I meant to watch #monsterdon. Then I saw a post. Then I noticed the time.

"Wait. It's after 6:30 already???"

Missed it by that much. 🤷‍♂️

On to next Sunday.

@ottaross Starch, is there any situation you can't handle? #monsterdon

One of the zombies looked like Robert Durst LOL #monsterdon #creaturewiththeatombrain

This just looks like an AA meeting tbh #monsterdon #creaturewiththeatombrain

@ottaross Pretty much my takeaway. #Monsterdon

@plaidtron3000 I woulda sworn there was some Twilight Zone or similar shit that had a guy with an eye in the back of his head (_back specifically_ not forehead) with an hilariously bad wig effect but I can't find it. And it's not Twilight Zone.

#monsterdon
#CreatureWithTheAtomBrain

@jchaven @ottaross What the movie didn't show was the network of electronics inside Henrietta 2's cranium guaranteed to delight Penny #monsterdon

Anyway yeah good job team and thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting

#monsterdon
#CreatureWithTheAtomBrain

I mean, that parking job was a pretty accurate part of the impersonation #monsterdon #creaturewiththeatombrain

"He can only see what is in front of him."

Is that unusual? I have the same problem, I thought it was kinda... everybody?

#monsterdon

nobody could tell because the movie was in black and white, but this is actually how the town looked after the climax

#monsterdon

@jonny It's not a surprise rocket launcher, but "oh yeah, the army guys have SMGs and grenades" is something.

#monsterdon

@jchaven @ottaross "Take a slice for the road? <hic>" #monsterdon

@socketwench It always comes when you least expect it

#Monsterdon

@moira Said the mohel :P #Monsterdon

So did Michael Crichton steal Terminal Man from this movie? #monsterdon

@ottaross It had a surprising amount of rum in it #monsterdon

"Muscle contraction extremely strong" while laying in bed with eyes closed lol #monsterdon #creaturewiththeatombrain

I still can't get over Dick Cutting xD

#monsterdon
#CreatureWithTheAtomBrain

Dick Cutting was the Dr. Kiss of this movie #monsterdon

Oh, figures. I go to clean up the dishes and the movie ends.

#monsterdon

The moral is don't hire "ex-Nazi" scientists to do your bidding unless you keep the person on a tight leash or you'll never achieve total conquest #monsterdon

@amyfou denoument has no place in #Monsterdon 😛

It was the dead zombies, our friends became, along the way.
#Monsterdon #creaturewiththeatombrain

I'm not 100% certain that this is a lesson for our times, but it was a fairly enjoyable #monsterdon installment. I take back what I said about 1950s cinema

@SarraceniaWilds this is the most important question in the whole movie #monsterdon #PaperConveyerBeltFanClub

That movie was utterly delightful, and definitely about AI

#Monsterdon

"New Tax Bill May Be Needed"! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon summary: if you're inventing a Neuralink, don't take VC funding, especially from someone with a hit list

wait what was that weird paper conveyor thing
#Monsterdon

See now _that's_ some quality 50's atomic monster movie!

#monsterdon
#CreatureWithTheAtomBrain

i'm gonna have to go back and watch that zombie fight scene like 20 times #monsterdon

Huh, I was not expecting the zombies to need that level of active control.

#monsterdon

YEAH! PUNCH MR. ROGERS AGAIN!

#monsterdon
#CreatureWithTheAtomBrain

@GeoffWozniak ACAB includes Uncle Dave

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon man, how would you like to be face-lifted and slammed to the ground like that?

#monsterdon this is like one of those big WWE brawls but half of them are the undertaker

These lads are all on a come down and don't need this police shit

#monsterdon

The classic zombie fighting style. Hold out arms and spin around!

#Monsterdon #TheCreatureWithTheAtomBrain

Everybody's kung fu fighting #monsterdon

@ottaross i was hoping they were going to do a line dance #monsterdon

#monsterdon 3 soldiers and 3 cops in two personnel carriers

"All right lads, the party's over"

*they slowly shuffle out, back to their wives #monsterdon

"We've got the whole band back together"

#monsterdon

No fat on this flick. Lean and tight the way I likes them. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Well, there goes the finest mind in the business, finished by a wrench

"Come vis me! My life's work, I will destroy it first!"

Please feel free to hit me, since I asked you to come over and stand next to me while I hit your things with a hammer! #Monsterdon

Violet is cranky that I woke up from her #Monsterdon nap 'cause my legs were losing circulation.
#Cat #CatsOfMonsterdon

@allanb where did you find Eric Adams' policy manual #monsterdon

#monsterdon #CreatureWithTheAtomBrain it seems like it would be extremely hard to make a mind control skullcap and also include special camera cells in the victims' eyes to get a video report back to your zoom screen... especially with 1950s technology. Like each of those things would be a big research project.

Gonna guess that many monkeys died to bring us these radioactive zombies.

Ooo, fucked that suspension up real good D: #Monsterdon

@ottaross That's some advanced tech right there #monsterdon

This movie is like if Radar Secret Service actually had things happen. #Monsterdon
