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.

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

Karen Conlin

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 . . .

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.

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

@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

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!

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

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

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.

#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000 well, it sort of had a plot! things happened more or less in sequence! there was uncomfortable amounts of nudity and leather fetishwear! everything you could want from the 1970s

good night everyone :D

LOL, Tubi wants to show me “Hell Comes to Frogtown” next. The French are at it again! #Monsterdon

Ben Ramsey

ramsey@don.monster

Something about that ending reminds me of the “Love Conquers All” cut of Brazil—completely terrible and nothing like what the director intended.

Ayyyydrew@gensokyo.social

The moral of the story is that if you were looking to 2026 to be an improvement on 2025 #monsterdon you may need to recalibrate your expectations

This movie is amazing, and I am sorry I missed so much of it.

It’s absolutely ridiculous.

And with that, the last score of the race, we bid a fond adieu to #DeathRace2000 and the first #monsterdon of 2026. Thanks for tuning in, even though I’m bad at this, heh. I’ll get better eventually.

Love a movie that makes me ask at the end "What the fuck did I just watch?"

And honestly, I'd watch it again. The very highest of camp!
