Hey, she's not an audience plant!
Booo not polite clap you weirdos.
#Monsterdon
Yeah the young lady in the 7th row looks hot
#monsterdon
Isnβt fake Abraham Lincoln a ventriloquist? Why is he hypnotizing people? Whereβs the dummy?
Step right up and be traumatized #monsterdon
Did he name himself βThe Great Vorelliβ because he loves vore?
Also, that's strangely on-beat clapping out of the audience!
Performative cruelty everyone!
Have I mentioned the pain of the bullet smashing into your head?
Who would volunteer after that?! #Monsterdon
The cinematographer is quite fond of closeups.
"steve stop banging those drums. i know they're fun but the viewers need to hear the dialog"
Anyone? Bueller?
People volunteered for weird things in the 60's
can't imagine why he'd be whimpering and cringing through that humiliating ordeal, must be magic
#monsterdon So what, the dummy shoots him later?
Nice, go to enjoy a nice night out and get tortured.
@LuluHelle They didn't have cable yet.
"all just a dream"
#monsterdon βDo you smell somethingβ¦?β
Although this movie was probably shot at 24fps, it has lots of scenes where literally nothing moves. If you factored that in, I wonder how many frames per second it is really.
#monsterdon
okay so what part of that was interesting to the audience?
Moments? Whew, then I can avoid that meeting in the morning.
Damn dude, you gonna do aftercare on stage, too? #Monsterdon
Hypnotists are always pricks in these flicks. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll
Hey, I think Iron Maiden has a song kinda like this, right?
Now, that you're on your knees , take this brush and Mr. Clean .... #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964
This frankly is not the kind of magic show Iβd be interested in watching, puppet or no puppet #Monsterdon
@Taweret Thatβs really the scariest part of this movie.
Jeeeez dude!
This passes for entertainment? Ppl paid to see this bearded creep?
#Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964 this is some very intense hypno roleplay
#monsterdon What a light-hearted performance! Executions make for such sparkling entertainment!
Dang. So much for making someone cluck like a chicken...
"I am going to make this man believe he could die at any moment"
So he's going to show him WebMD? #Monsterdon
Uhh⦠fuck this guy.
VORELLI: DONβT TALK BACK by D.A. Pennebaker
#Monsterdon Let's applaud terrorizing someone!
Mr. Harrison, you are surrounded by a servers all alike, they are about to crash, you haven't slept in 3 days...
...Was Vorelli in Da Nang or what? #Monsterdon
OK, this seems like a crime against humanity. The scene AND the movie. #monsterdon
Nice sound design for this mesmerism.
jesus dude just make him quack like a duck
βMr. Harrison, look into my eyes and see me as a film negative.β
Well, that escalated quickly. #Monsterdon
π³
oh no! not the reversed film!
@Taweret So weird... makes me want a moon pie even though I know it'll be gross. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll πͺπ΅πΎββοΈπ₯πΏ
NEGATIVO-A-VISION
this is what passed for first date material in 1960, that's the real devil doll
Everyone at this show looks so bored
SLEEEEEEEEEEP
2 cigarettes in 5 minutes?
#Monsterdon π© π π» π πΉ π±
for some reason they're using Pinter pauses in this movie
She would, but she's got this three hour tour she's going on. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll
Alright, dummy. Go night night. Cover on. No, no chirping. Go to sleep. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964
Isnβt that the dude from 2001?
oh yeah, half a phone conversation, always good
I don't think I can suspend my disbelief enough to accept the reporter assigned to interview a ventriloquist has his own secretary. #monsterdon
Ride, captain, ride.. on your mystery cab..
This (American?) newspaper guyβs assistant keeps going in and out of her British accent.
Okay no one look into his eyes
Very leisurely opening, this film knows you have plans later and it doesn't care. #Monsterdon
"I'm going to suggest to this man that his life is in danger, that he could die at any moment"
ah, so he's gonna give him anxiety disorder then #monsterdon
Ah, a rotary dial phone. How quaint.
What was he staring at? The corner?
Heywood Floyd before that whole Discovery/Hal debacle. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll
Wasn't he in Gorgo too?
NO, but Ginger's here, you can speak to her
2001 an Odd Dummy See
#monsterdon what is this doofus bowing for, they were applauding Holst and the Royal Symphonic Phil-Harmony of East London
#monsterdon Get someone with no mind to be afraid of violating.
have they considered leaving the obviously cursed entity in the cage #monsterdon
What is looking at?
the thea-tuh #monsterdon
@moira Alas, where's a Nintendo DS when you need one? #Monsterdon
He's great all all, but *Verelli*!? I doubt it.
Itβs funny how many puppets from mid-20th century just LOOKED like that, with that weird half-smirk permanently carved on
Like, my dad had a dummy puppet heβd bring out and play with with us every once in a long while, and it had the same smirk if not the same eyebrows #Monsterdon
Just made it! I was frantically transferring the "taste of summer" to the freezer from the ice cream machine.
(Lemon ice cream with raspberries, shout out to @AnaWTheBlueHairAndPronouns for promoting the raspberry agenda)

A big Mesmerizing Welcome to new Monsterdon participants and lurkers! Special welcome to those new on the Fediverse!
Guys can we slow down that dip to white? No slower. SLOWER.
I always leer at my doll and say "You'll always lose!" It is totally normal. And then leer at my wife and say "And you sympathize!"
Shoulda put Gabbo in a Pokeball.
Having ghost pepper cheese for a Lil' excitement tonight, 'cause this movie ain't.
#monsterdon Keeps a dummy in a crate, and suddenly a bunch of gay pups all make little whining sounds :)
[snarky retort with clever pun]
I feel this journalist's frustrations #monsterdon
Feels like we just walked in on someone's kink scene >_>; #Monsterdon
@CactuarJoe βͺ It's time to kill with puppets on the Hugo show tonight! β« #Monsterdon #DevilDoll
Now those are some ears a Ferengi would envy. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964
