The important message from tonight's movie is "Learn how to make a Molotov Cocktail, it could save the planet"

I'm sad I've missed #Monsterdon but today isn't a total waste because I did get to meet and snuggle Bear.

Bear is just eight weeks old and his fur is wooly puppy fur and he has puppy breath and needle sharp puppy teeth and a pink warm puppy tummy and no I did not steal him but yes I REALLY wanted to do that

This is Chewy. She has a sensitive stomach. #monsterdon

That was a blast! I got happily distracted and probably missed a bingo square or two. 😁#monsterdon

Thanks, everyone!

The bounty hunters #monsterdon

The crits have stolen the ship #monsterdon

WELCOME TO EARTH BABY!

Any teenage boy who doesn't know why his date wants to go into an old barn is a moron.

#monsterdon

NEELIX sighted!! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon the only thing that matters is that the cats okay. We don’t care about anything else. As is right and appropriate. :)

How I feel every time the other characters refer to Brad.

#Monsterdon #Critters

@forestine that’s the trouble with tribbles…

#monsterdon

Critter's like: I just need a lil nap...😴 #monsterdon

Did all white american boys in the 80s climb in and out of their houses via trees?

#Monsterdon

Critters Prequel which goes into why they were in Space Prison and is a tale of political intrigue, Galactic Empires and general cat-like sociopathy

Timothee Chalamet plays the god-king of Crite Prime

Dad's eyebrows can detach like drones and fly for help

#monsterdon "Have another drink, Harv. I'm just going to leave the bottle here. Don't bother me."

this bartender would never get his Smart Serve renewed, he is terrible

Nobody suspects raccoons could have done this and the racoons want to keep it that way...

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Tires squealing on gravel..? Sure OK why not

Aw, Steve gets chompulated out of nowhere! Poor Billy Zane. Also poor traumatized April, who is going to have to pay for that ruined pitchfork out of her allowance.

#monsterdon Chemex coffee maker spotted! Hand-blown version with the two-piece wooden collar and leather lanyard with the wood bead, not the version with the handle. Same as the one that appeared in Interstellar!

C.R.I.T.T.E.R.S. stands for…

Capitalism Requires Infinite Theft, Trampling Everything, and Ruining Society

@ramsey @Taweret @Cherizilla The star of Frog (1987) and Frogs! (1991) #WrongFrogs #monsterdon

Charlie was just that ginger child's future, by 2025 he's the one in the bar rambling to himself about Aliens when all anybody else saw was just another Bowling Alley/Church shooting by 'two people from LA'

Somebody option this!

#Monsterdon

It's the Power of the Night! #monsterdon

Megacritter foiled by poor cable management. Relateable. #monsterdon

Molotov Cocktail time!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I really appreciate that the Critters are basically just tumbleweeds that can curse

Toilet Critter, we hardly knew ya

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon These bounty hunters aren't actually accomplishing anything at all, are they? Like, not just that they are incompetent, but, like: narratively. Do they serve a purpose other than letting all the actors take turns wearing those bounty hunter costumes?

Maybe I'm just being impatient, and they will actually turn out to have a point. But we're 2/3 of the way through the movie already...

If ANYONE in this movie is going to deliver a Devil Girl-esque line, it’s these two #monsterdon

Sodom is the REAL power of the night

#monsterdon

I can't believe our pet tribbles ate my face like that, Timmy. #monsterdon

@nhgeek

Chekov’s Garbage Disposal

#monsterdon

Hand in the garbage disposal is probably the scariest scene in a #monsterdon movie so far. 😱✋🚮

#monsterdon DoesTheCowDie.com (spoiler: yes)

One of my favourite answers to Fermi's Paradox is Earth just isn't that impressive to wider Galactic society right now.
So we have the situation such as tonight's film where the Federation builds a high security prison in the next and so what if Critters escape here?
We're the Andaman Islands to the wider Galaxy.

#Monsterdon

This is almost as bad as when George Lucas adds song and dance numbers to Star Wars

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Neelix!

That fence going up the hill looks kinda like the one from Invaders From Mars.

#Monsterdon #Critters

Troll (1986) and Troll 2 (1990)

WHEN?!

#monsterdon

@strangefour @moira @Taweret

Yeti. Always the Corpse Bride, never the Corpse.

#monsterdon

@yatsu good solid 80s sci-fi fun, I wish Critters were real and tormenting my enemies!

#Monsterdon

@moira @Taweret Yeti. Always a bridesmaid. Never a bride of Frankenstein.
#Monsterdon #Critters

#monsterdon you're sitting in your living room, maybe reading the newspaper or enjoying a nice cup of tea. Suddenly: WHUMP. BONK

I'm outside! Throwing small toothy balls of fur at your window!

Look at my critters
Look at my critters
Look at my critters
Look at my critters

@_L1vY_ I think it holds up well 40 years later

yes, 40 years later

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I think I preferred C.H.U.D.! @k8eb says she preferred Critters, though. (We'll see what she thinks once we watch the next three Critters films.)

#Monsterdon the last plate “Brought to you by New Line Cinema” as if an excuse. They did it. They forced us to release this on the public!

FUCK. YO. FARMHOUSE. #monsterdon

The outside of the spacecraft is dangerously radioactive and the humans are already dead

#Monsterdon

Is the Uber Crit horny for Earth girls?

#Monsterdon

lol, I like the Bounty Hunters aversion to doors....

#Monsterdon

@Taweret or learn how to play a sport #Monsterdon

#monsterdon _montage sequence of Critters knocking everything off tables and tearing up bedding_ oh so they're just cats

...

...

...just like Godzilla!!

now do a montage where the critters try on different outfits

#monsterdon

Hold onto your butts. It's a cuteness montage!!! #monsterdon

So is a Critter a larval Kaiju? 🤔 #monsterdon

I’ve flushed worse. #Monsterdon

Running out of the bowling alley like the movie theater crowd in The Blob…

#Monsterdon #Critters

Ooh! ✅ Baseball Bat. That was a wild ass guess, too. #monsterdon #bingo

The Mom screams too much and is panickily

#Monsterdon

Don't blame me, I voted for The Bat People

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Did Brad's homemade firework just kill the Critter that ate it? I can't tell if that was supposed to be a humorous "that's a spicy meatball!" moment or an actual Critter murder

I always giggle in church when the preacher says “Gamora”

#monsterdon

"That screaming is coming from the sex barn!"

#Monsterdon

Grovers Bend - reference to Grovers Mill, the site of the invasion in The War Of The Worlds

#monsterdon

#monsterdon If I was piloting a stolen spacecraft through atmospheric reentry I would simply neither fire retrorockets nor allow increasing friction during the descent to generate incredible heat, it would be easy for me

Arlo! This kid was Arlo from Wrong Frogs!🐸 #wrongfrogs #monsterdon

We're not going to have to listen to "Power of the Night" by the nobody's the whole film are we?

#monsterdon

He coulda’ been a contender if it weren’t for those dang fillings #monsterdon

#monsterdon That cast iron skillet from which breakfast was being served came PERILOUSLY close to that kid's face.

Inject this nonsense into my veins. 🤩 #monsterdon

Excited to finally see the prequel to Critters 2.

#Monsterdon #Critters

I can't really say I'm sorry I got called away from Critters, to be perfectly honest.

#monsterdon

@moira @CactuarJoe @strangefour we've had genuinely good movies before on Monsterdon and it was fun, Tremors is an A class B Movie.

#Monsterdon

There we go - the image on the right from the "holographic" sequence the bounty hunter is watching is the one I was wondering where it came from. Any ideas?

#Monsterdon #Critters1986

@allanb That’s the trouble with tribbles… #monsterdon

@OliviaVespera it did feel very quick, didn't drag like some movies have #Monsterdon

okay, that was a solid movie. things made no sense, there was a synth soundtrack, and little furballs ate things. my headcannon is, The Ginger Childe grows up to be a wizard class intergalactic bounty hunter. A+ #monsterdon

I liked that movie, no one's learning the true meaning of anything, just monsters attacking your house and you barely survive, the dream

#Monsterdon

My dog’s name is *also* Chewy. Coincidence?! #monsterdon

This movie lands dead center in the #Monsterdon Magic Quadrant chart.

None of the humans died, and I'm okay with it. I'm happy they triumphed over the Crites, and the bounty hunters turned out to be pretty cool dudes, too.

I liked this movie. My favorite Monsterdon movie of 2025, so far.

Thanks, @Taweret, for hosting, @Cherizilla, for the #MonsterdonBingo, and everyone else, for the fun!

#Monsterdon

that was fun in the way they actually meant it to be fun, how surprising!

#monsterdon #critters

#Monsterdon This was a reliable five movie run. People loved the cute little bitey assholes. It was *very* 80’s.

Nesting partner: " there were FIVE of these shitty movies??!!!!!???!!" #Monsterdon #Critters1-5

So the body count is TWO!?
Not counting all the dead Crites.
And a cow. Alot of chickens. ET puppet.
#Monsterdon #Critters

Do we know what the Critters original crimes were? Did they have decent legal representation? Was the jury biased?

#Monsterdon

Critter eggs!

Classic

there are about 4 sequels to this, so....

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Welp the Critters bombed the Brown house while flying away, apparently out of sheer malice.

(Oh there's Chewie! DoesTheCatDie.com: NO)

That's pretty clever for an 80s movie special effect

#Monsterdon

That cat made it!

#monsterdon

"Call me." WHOA HEY NOT COOL #monsterdon

#Monsterdon whoa. homeowners insurance not gonna like that

critter laughing after blowing up the house

fantastic

#monsterdon

and this is how ANTIFA was born

#monsterdon

Nobody gets CIA signals on their teeth anymore, now that dentists switched to resin fillings. They had to switch to vaccines in the early 2000s, they're more efficient but where's the ROMANCE :/ #Monsterdon

The bike will now rise into the sky

#monsterdon

I told you this was the same plot as Lilo and Stitch

#monsterdon
