it could indeed resemble him. but it doesn't.

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

"It was a long time ago. I was younger"

Yeah that's how time works lady #Monsterdon

what kind of evil bastard makes those things though...

#Monsterdon

@paco

"Vee haf vayz of making you talk"

... is the motto of the German Guild of Ventriloquists

#Monsterdon

Um, line?

#Monsterdon

Because I'm being extra, a snow rim on my random box wine 🍷 ☃️ #Monsterdon #DevilDoll

was Hugo the professional dancer from the first scene?

#Monsterdon

Voreli's backstory is that he used to be a doctor then he studied... drumbeat... "The Mysteries of the East!" and learned how to separate souls from bodies from a lama or something. Anyway he used to have an assistant named Hugo whose soul is stuck in the doll now I guess.

#monsterdon

@athena_rising if we lick it we might get lucky and get out of this film quickly. Goooo lucky arsenic.
#Monsterdon

Excellent German/Polish/French accent. #monsterdon

It was a long time ago, I was (pause) younger.

Yeah, that’s how it works.

#monsterdon

“Kicked out of the medical society“ Uh oh. #Monsterdon

holy shit we have 20 minutes left and we're doing a full "visit the old country and discover the origin of the dummy" instead of getting 15 minutes of dummy carnage #monsterdon

@apLundell

Better than un-typed blood transfusions...

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

'twas a long time ago... this movie started...

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

BUM BUM BUUUUMMMMMM!
#monsterdon

Another doll being subjugated by this man. At someone point we have to consider that the problem is him. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll 🪆🕵🏾‍♀️🎥🍿

@steggy I don't think my brain could take the shock of that drastic a change

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Hugo's a common name, tho. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Has anyone tried snapping their fingers at the patient?

Just waiting for someone to say "Frau Blücher" and then the horses whinny. #monsterdon

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

I'm waiting for the line:

"That's no dummy. That's my wife!"

"are you a cop?"
"no."
"oh alright then, no worries."
🤦

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Oh Pan-Am, when they had real silverwear on airplanes...
#monsterdon
#devildoll1964

This guy isn't looking at the road
#monsterdon

"If you're a cop, you have to tell me."

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Creeper stare tilt from camera one. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Gonna start drinking to "and all that jazz" #monsterdon

@gblues It was giving Dracula vibes, now Bride of Frankenstein. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll

THIS *IS* A CHUCKY PREQUEL!

YAAAAY!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👩 😏 👻 🎎 👹 😱

I don't think the tibetans would have helped him with that tho

Exposition drop!
#Monsterdon

The “mysteries of the East”

Aaaand there’s the racism. Just in case you were wondering #Monsterdon

Re-incarnation!

#Monsterdon

With the llamas in Tibet

(I know what he meant but I reject that)

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

"He also spent a year working in a bowling alley in Cleveland, but we don't think that's relevant."

#monsterdon #devildoll1964

I just had a funny vision of the new assistant being Lucy Ricardo trying to break into showbiz, and the movie taking a hard turn into comedy.

#Monsterdon

Egypt is part of "The East"?

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Not the llamas in Tibet!

#monsterdon

This camera motion is what we call "the male gaze" #Monsterdon

#monsterdon OMG THAT ACCENT

#Monsterdon

Exposition!

This entire film is a sedative.

#Monsterdon

So, Vorelli, not happy on having one ugly doll is going to have a female ugly doll?
What a weirdo...
#monsterdon
#devildoll1964

Are you sure you’re ready Grace? Let’s go over it again. You hand me the ham and walk off. Got it?

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

#monsterdon

slept all day

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

We've got that traveling music to propel the plot while we watch the plane land and get in another cab.

so, things do eventually Happen in this movie, do they?

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

You'd think Mr. Corelli would get *better* with each new doll he built. Sadly that is not the case #Monsterdon

America on the move!

Stock pan am footage.

#monsterdon

Voreli now has a new blonde dame to be his hypnotized assistant and is disguising his dummy (I think) but putting a wig on it.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Did Pan American have a lot of flights from England to Germany?

Boeing 707?

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Pan Am, finally something good. #Monsterdon

PAN AMERICAN, LOOMS IN THE FOG

#monsterdon

huh, the pan-am curse really does have its tendrils everywhere, doesn't it?

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

She's got a wig on her wig, classic defense against a wig snatch. #monsterdon

Now nurse, go dip this syringe in the tetanus bath, so we can reuse it later. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

They should have done the marker lines on a map as the plane flew.

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll

#Monsterdon 👩 😏 👻 🎎 👹 😱

Pan-Am!

"Well, when do we start"

EXACTLY WHAT I AM ASKING ABOUT ACT 3, MOVIE. 😐

#monsterdon

Oh, the shots of the Pan Am plane are sheer joy

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll

#monsterdon What a fun, hedonistic character. Wonder if the movie will bother returning to him.

“Poor Magda. I shall miss her in many ways, but not in any of the ways that matter.”

#Monsterdon

Thanks to #monsterdon, I have a much higher likelihood of being hungover on a Monday than either Friday or Saturday.

Hilton? C'mon mark, you aremore like an Ibis guy...
#monsterdon
#devildoll1964

Gratuitous toe-to-head scan that adds nothing to the movie #Monsterdon

Oh no— another doll! #Monsterdon

"It's coming now."

Well good for it. I guess that's a kink.

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

@xerozohar I just sang this out loud. Hysterical.
#monsterdon

"Look at this die-cast model! It has real Estes rocket motor engines!"

#monsterdon

Thanks for that pandering, DoP. #Monsterdon

@vigour_mortis oooh love that show

and yeah I see it

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

is this some kind of doll transference

#monsterdon

This guy sucks at making dummies.

#Monsterdon

"get me a room at the Hilton."

Oh, HE'S meeting Vorelli now.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

AUGHHHHHHHHHH :blobcat_noir: :blobcat_noir: :blobcat_noir: :blobcat_noir: :blobcat_noir:

I sweat from every pore and look like swamp thing.
She sweats profusely and her everything is still in place.
#Monsterdon

If I was them I think I would get a second opinion before letting this creepy Dr. Nick inject her with a "new American drug" #Monsterdon

that wallpaper, oy gevalt

#Monsterdon

Hee. He's calling @Louisa #Monsterdon #DevilDoll

#monsterdon I wonder if 1964 audiences would have known what drug they meant when they said "The new drug from America"?

Here, this medical medicine should help

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

#monsterdon

Doctor doctor, gimme the booze

I've got a bad case of crappy movie

@klu9 well at least it's not a World War I field munition

AGAIN

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

so, this guy wears a suit coat around his own house, just, of an afternoon?

... yeah, checks out.

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

@amyfou lol well it's close at least

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

@Binder theres an evil ventriloquist who keeps a dummy in a cage and used the dummy to murder someone and also the ventriloquist put a reporter's girlfriend into a not-coma by telepathically seducing her.

also there was a dude with big eyebrows.

#monsterdon

“She’s still delirious.” That’s a whole genre right there. #Monsterdon

and now, the completely silent part of the film

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Star of David wallpaper is a CHOICE.

i gotta admit i'm pretty lost and only sticking around to see the dummy get free #monsterdon

I'll bet this is better while wine drunk 🍷
#Monsterdon #DevilDoll

was there any detail on what they're injecting Marianne with?

#monsterdon

@bstacey #monsterdon

We are all in a semi-comatose state...

@bstacey That assumes there is something going on

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Hop on Lexis Nexis and search for "Vorelli". And try not to muss her hair this time around. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

I think you should come up and see Mrs. Horn. Nothing has changed in her condition.

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

#monsterdon "The new drug from America has calmed her down."

mom and dad have zero idea about all the Verelli drama

#Monsterdon
