This is bordering on the absurd, and I’m so here for it.

#Monsterdon

He Loves Everybody! ??????

#monsterdon

"limb" transplants

I don't think I've ever heard scare quotes enunciated so clearly

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

And I'm already blown away by how much the "future fashion" looks exactly like 70s fashion.

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

#monsterdon Who needs dental work? He needs dental work! And then we've got Sherbet-Ascot man. LOL

This is exactly how I remember the 2000s. #Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

Junior Bruce I don't think you can even pull that off in the 70s.
#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

DOES HE SERIOUSLY JUST HAVE STICKERS ON HIS CLOTHES? #monsterdon

It's cool they put the stadium right next to the painting #monsterdon

you're not my buddy-buddy, guy-guy

#Monsterdon

David Carradine? What's he doing?

Oh, just hanging around.

#monsterdon #DeathRace2000

It's called trans-continental road race because back then trans was not considered woke
#monsterdon #deathrace2000

#monsterdon is that Sarek?

#monsterdon so much vroom vroom. is this a Mazda commercial?

I thought this looked like America

#Monsterdon

Poorly played national anthem seems emblematic

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

Oh hey, I didn’t know the Donald Trump High School Marching Band was performing today… #monsterdon #DeathRace2000

RE: https://mastodon.murkworks.net/@RobynGoodfellow/115840355343809558

I was not expecting this to be competitive, I was expecting BEAR

but otoh, nazi blowed up so

I can see it

#monsterdon #bear #DeathRace2000

"woah, turn off that light, man! it's just too much!!!"

#monsterdon #BakedPotato #WrongRace

...they are discoursing on the Nature of Reality....

#monsterdon #BakedPotato #WrongRace

@kcarr2015 @yatsu OMG! It has Jason Statham in it!

#Monsterdon

I bet that frog is like... saying stuff about Plato's Cave or something....

#monsterdon #BakedPotato #WrongRace

One last one: I love when we do #monsterdon movies that have Man or Astroman samples in them. #deathrace2000

https://youtu.be/H7COLLDahpg?si=7hUBuDF6Bg7OO2y7

@LingLass @Taweret @Cherizilla @JoeWynne The whole broadcast-announcer bit made me think an awful lot of the Hunger Games.

#Monsterdon

he's FREED them, man! He's Freed them... and he's leading them out of the TUNNEL

#monsterdon #BakedPotato #WrongRace

wait, John Landis had a cameo?

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

woah... it's like HE MAN.....

#monsterdon #BakedPotato #WrongRace

@yatsu
It's got sequels!

#Monsterdon #DeathRace

Despite the blood, that was a refreshingly optimistic and exceedingly 70s take on America. Timely, but dopey. Commercially competitive, but earnest. Glad to have finally seen it. Thanks, @Taweret, @Cherizilla and @JoeWynne and co. #Monsterdon.

woah... I hope no cartoon horses were hurt in the making of this movie....

#monsterdon #BakedPotato #WrongRace

(also, for anyone else still wondering, Frankenstein's doctor, way back at the beginning? he was one of the camp councilors in Piranha. he also directed Death Race 2000.)

#monsterdon

For those of you scrolling through your timeline, you're about to hit a big mass of Monsterdon postings about Death Race 2000 (1975) and the second, Wrong Frogs feature.

Should you not wish to read through them, here's how to filter them out, at least on the web browser:
1) right click on the gears & open in a new tab
2) choose "Filters" then "Add New Filter"
3) give the filter a title, check all boxes under contexts, choose hide completely and put "#Monsterdon" in the keyword box.
4) Click on "Save New Filter"

... and you're done.

@apLundell Not this maverick #monsterdon

Bingo!

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000 #MonsterdonBingo

dude... dude.... the Elf.... is gonna put that sword... on a SHELF!!!

#monsterdon #BakedPotato #WrongRace

Big thanks to @Taweret for hosting tonight's Monsterdon!

(Ib Melchior wrote & directed Angry Red Planet, if the name sounded familiar)

Smoking, no coffee, and gratuitous use of facial yogurt. Goofy and violent. Two thumbs up.

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

@geonz @apLundell @Taweret your loss #monsterdon

I enjoyed that on roughly the same level as Crank. Extremely stupid but it committed 100% #monsterdon

Interesting that no one commented on the US being run from palaces in Moscow and Beijing.

But granted, that was very early in the movie and a lot was happening at the time . . .

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

Hah! We made #DeathRace2000 trend on Mastodon over the course of #Monsterdon!

So I think I figured out why helmet man got rid of the death race once he became president Frankenstein.

He remembered how he got that position in the first place.

Hint: he wasn’t elected.

#Monsterdon #deathrace2000

Behold my #letterboxd review of this weird, weird feature. Two exploding stars https://letterboxd.com/anderson_petaq/film/death-race-2000/
#monsterdon

OMG, Frankenstein just killed the President, he's in league with the French!

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

Double bingo! Thanks, @cherizilla for the card and @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonBingo

I'M SORRY IAN MCSHANE WAS IN IT???

🦖#MONSTERDON Goodbye!

❤️ Thank you @Taweret for hosting this racy rally!

🅱️ and thanks @cherizilla for the Bingo card! My favorite: Harsh Insult!

🎞️ and more thanks to @paco for data analysis and @combatwombat for the replays.

🦖And to all the members of the Real Time Film Analysis Squad: You made it to the finish line and all your victims are strewn along the road. They died laughing.

Paul Frees! Don Messick! And other old voice actors.

@apLundell @Taweret he didn't force it upon us! #monsterdon is a democracy

(okay, i was about to sign off, but like, wait, was there a remake/reboot of this movie in 2008??? what the actual--

Also, my Bingo card at the end:

#monsterdon #DeathRace2000

The Hobbit: Dopesmoker edition on miru.
'From designer Gary J Kings: "I replaced all audio from the animated movie with Dopesmoker by Sleep. Sped up the movie by 10% to match song length (63 minutes). The result is not a movie, but it sure is a errr 'big mood'."'

It's also 4 AM here, so good night :D
#monsterdon

oh and also

#monsterdon #deathrace2000

#monsterdon only twice in my life have I watched a movie, and— actively during the movie— thought "if the lead actor had been someone actually handsome and charming, the way the movie thinks they are, it would have improved a lot"

Death Race 2000
Dangerous Liasons

I anticipate Death Race 2000 being on my personal short list for worst #Monsterdon movie of the year

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

@moira i really love how it just crashes through a whole scifi universe just barely explaining anything but giving enough that you can fill in the picture in all the time spent just sorta vrooming around #monsterdon

And that's another #Monsterdon in the can. Thanks as always to @Taweret for putting all this together.

Have a great night all! :)

#monsterdon and to think, this is the first Monsterdon of 2026

i can only imagine what we've got coming up next

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

This movie fucked off into the road, where it started in the first place. Thanks to the usual suspects who were all unfortunately killed by the French Air Force. @Taweret , @Cherizilla , @JoeWynne , @paco ,
and all of #monsterdon.

I think that movie ran over itself

Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting! See you next week!

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000

Well, thank you @Taweret for hosting yet another great #Monsterdon

This was the cerebral film I needed to kickstart my semester. See you all next week!

I’m actually really digging the model and effects work in this.

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000 #withAdsVersion

And that's it for me. Some good bodies on display, a startlingly good movie for a Monsterdon, and I got my nails done in the mean time. Now time to go finish that Werewolf Romance novel I was reading. #Monsterdon

Thanks to @Taweret for hosting as always! #monsterdon #DeathRace2000

I think I needed to be in the correct headspace to get the satire.

A couple of laugh out loud moments, but mostly just baffled by musical choices, and not particularly engaged otherwise.

Still better to watch it with you all.

Till next time, thank you for your toots, and thanks @Taweret for hosting.
