#monsterdon When is this kid going to bust out his fireworks?

So shotguns can only use two bullets at a time? Is that the deal?

#Monsterdon

And now a Critter that's two feet tall. A big boss of the gang or mother of monsters?
Oh right they can all grow by eating a coup full of pre-McNuggies.
#Monsterdon #Critters

@wohali Blowing up toilets is always a good time.

#monsterdon #critters1986

come on' drop the critters with your handgun, uh huh #monsterdon

If you say Helen's name four times, she's compelled to listen to you. #monsterdon

Toilet clog is clear...
#Monsterdon

ah yes, cop sees something, cop shoots something. doesn't even bother to identify it. #monsterdon

Perfect reaction time from these bounty hunters!

#Monsterdon #Critters1986

Dad: Ride like the wind!
Jay: <agrees>
...
Jay: <walks very very slowly>
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon don't use your gun on them, he'll kill you

I thought there were only 9 of them

#monsterdon

...Dude the plunger was right there. #Monsterdon

Who you gonna call? Critehunters!

#Monsterdon #Critters1986

If nothing else they must have had a lot of fun blowing things up on this set

#monsterdon

STOP ALTERNATING LONG AND SHORT VOWELS DAMMIT!!!

#Monsterdon

Johnny Steele, '80s hairdo hottie.

#Monsterdon

FTR: firing a shotgun indoors would leave EVERYONE without PPE clutching their hands over their ears in agony.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon sigh.

Goddamn cat…

She only seems to miss the crites when she can see them. #monsterdon

@rebeld That's what I thought but I'm positive we've seen more than 8 by now

#Monsterdon

@Taweret and I've been keeping my mouth shut because you staked that territory out already!

#monsterdon #critters

Yes, go back for the cat, good. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Some Giant Spider Invasion fans here:

Oh, are these bounty hunters retired Storm Troopers? Their aim certainly would suggest it.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon oh no the cat, we gotta save the cat!

These Crites are alien land piranhas #monsterdon

that's IT? that's all the ammo you have??? isn't this 1980s America??? #monsterdon

oh the lady has fired weaponry.

THE LADY WANTS MORE GUN.

#monsterdon

LASERBLAST #Monsterdon

I did not expect alien quills to be so accurate. #Monsterdon

Oh, this is the rescue, huh. It really doesn't feel like this movie's been going on a whole hour, does it? #monsterdon

@ohiofi There it is! There it is! Perfect!

#Monsterdon

Aw, yeah. Bounty hunters show up. Shit's about to go down!

#Monsterdon

Do we have a current Crites/Critters count? They started with 8 right?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

They'll claim it was all a boating accident.

How would you explain on this damage to the Insurer?

#Monsterdon

@strangefour It's more likely than you think. #Monsterdon

Ha there was an ET toy.

#Monsterdon #critters

goo 🥴
#monsterdon

Oh this one is SO puppet 😂 Not even an effort to hide it.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon okay, so it's not just the kid that's a pyromaniac…

"We want the crites" then may I suggest trying to work with the kid who is trying to lead you to the crites

#Monsterdon

Well, her firearms skills picked up quick. Necessity and a mother, all right. #monsterdon

go, critters, go! get them all!

#monsterdon

Why didn't everyone take a shotgun down from over the fireplace??

#monsterdon

They're also part cat. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon oh my god, that shot just obliterated one

Handsy, ain't they. #Monsterdon

Wow. This family is so resourceful! He grabbed a can of hairspray and lit the aerosol on fire!

#Monsterdon

uhh 80s music. This is getting better
#monsterdon

@Taweret 🎶 Crites just wanna have fu-un 🎶

#Monsterdon

Critters are like if Fizzgig from Dark Crystal was a gremlin that you fed after midnight.

#Monsterdon

I swear they're saying "I want the Christ." #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon kid just takes it in stride that uncle charlie and johnny steele from mtv are there until charlie doesn't know where the house is lol

"We're from Los Angeles" #monsterdon

omg! That's the cat's job! #monsterdon

Suddenly it's just a Critters slumber party.

#monsterdon #critters1986

Actually, running into the bounty hunters who are after the Crites was probably the best thing that could have happened to Brad.

#Monsterdon

Aliens from LA?
#Monsterdon #Critters

CRITE PHONE E.T.

#Monsterdon

I feel like that critter saying "Who are you" to ET is about to go "You know the rules and so do I".

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Sis seems pretty ok considering her dead boyfriend and all.

monsters *and* a music montage! THE MOVIE HAS FINALLY GOTTEN TRACKS. #monsterdon

This ain't your momma's ET! (yes your momma saw ET like 4 years ago) #monsterdon

#Monsterdon pillow fight!

Aww, they're having a little party! They're having fun!

#monsterdon #critters1986

"How you feeling honey?"

"Heh, ET was so much nicer..."

#Monsterdon

People in these movies always overrate the efficacy of guns and learn about fire too late #monsterdon

Critters musical eating montage.

#monsterdon

Shoutout to the prop guys having a ball wrecking the room with hand puppets :D #Monsterdon

[puppetry intensifies]

#Monsterdon

Yup definitely space cats

#Monsterdon

The mom from ET is also the mom here (Dee Williams)
#monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow great minds

#monsterdon

Oh my god it's eating ET, I love it

#Monsterdon

Captain! They've adapted! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon poor fishesh

ayyyy E.T.!

"This is the part where the puppeteers get to make up for the lousy pay on this job" #monsterdon

#Monsterdon I'm always up for a good barricaded-in-a-house story.

E.T. cameo. 😄

#Monsterdon #Critters1986

OK, who HASN'T at some point used a deodorant can as a flamethrower?

#Monsterdon

There's an E.T. doll!!!

#Monsterdon

Damn! an actual well-played, human, moment.

#monsterdon

@bstacey you mean the stores? #Monsterdon

Swinging weapon's no good, girl, you've got like three feet of space. Get a stabber. #Monsterdon

i could really go with a good "make the house defensible" montage right about now. have these people even seen lost boys #monsterdon

#monsterdon at first I'm like "oh right, they know what a bike is…"

Then I remember they're a space faring alien race who can operate FTL vehicles.

"make my monster grow!" #monsterdon

lil guy just hanging out by the bike like some school yard bully lol #monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Moms like "E.T. was much nicer."

I feel like an ice cold cola for some reason....
#Monsterdon

Dee Wallace playing the mom seems to think she has a chance for a major award for this role #monsterdon

#Monsterdon this film has been teaching kids how to make flamethrowers outta spray cans

#Monsterdon aquanet torch. It’s the 80’s for sure. Rad.

Critter toppling a bicycle in a very cat-like manner

I guess the critters are just space cats with poisoned quills

#Monsterdon

I believe the technical term for what the family's doing here is "blood sacrifice." #monsterdon

I'm suprised that Coca Cola bothered with this product placement.

#Monsterdon

"Oh my gosh! They're turning into easier targets!"

#Monsterdon

They're never gonna fit back in that tiny space ship now. #Monsterdon #Critters
