No joking, this guy comes off a lot more sinister and threatening without the beard. I think it was just covering up his emoting. #monsterdon

Mark has flew to Berlin or somewhere to talk to the guy he told to research so he can get an exposition dump in a bus.

Wait, there was a 1945 horror anthology called Dead of Night with a segment about a ventriloquist’s dummy named Hugo?

Mark then reads the paper article about the Voreli murder, where Voreli has an alibi and was gone when the dummy did a murder, so it was like a ventrilomurder.

In the next morning the headlines say "Voreli Murder" so I guess Voreli's presumed plan to use a dummy to do his murder to keep his crimes secret may have have backfired.

While the Blonde Dame Assistant takes a towel-clad nap in the goth bedroom, Voreli tells the Dummy that "she thinks ur ugly bro" and fondles a knife in front of him.

Then the dummy gets out of his cage and then stabs her with a knife.

We now have a love triangle, or more accurately a love chevron, where the blonde person likes Voreli and is mad that he is telepathically seducing Marianne. She threatens to call the cops on him so he tells her she's beautiful and I guess uses hypnotism to um... re-enslave her I guess, and then they kiss while the caged dummy watches.

This conversation is interrupted by a phone call from Marianne's house, where some Eyebrows who are also a Doctor report that Marianne is sick, and we learn she is stuck in a semi-coma, saying "Make him Stop Mark" and "He's calling me Mark" in between subdued moaning and gasping.

Then Doctor Eyebrows advises that she needs a nap now.

While telepathic sex crimes are afoot, the dummy decides to send Mark its own telepathic suggestion saying "Find Me. In Berlin 1948." The next day this causes Mark to start smoking, realizing that the Dummy was talking to him, which he explains to the office lady we saw at the beginning.

So, the newspaper man needs to build a time machine, now?

This movie is all over the place.

Because he's a snoop, Mark goes into Voreli's empty room after the performance to inspect the Dummy, finding it locked in a cage, which is very normal. Not actually yet aware of the demon witchcraft, Mark opens up and starts fondling the dummy's face, then opens up the cage. Uh oh.

I don't know how to ask this so:

When does #monsterdon happen? How do people watch together synced up? Seems like a blast

Mark goes to talk to his boss to have a debate. Mark thinks Voreli is using demon witchcraft to move his dummy while his boss thinks the dummy is simply a robot.

After Voreli telepathically whispers at Marianne while she's riding in a car with Mark, they decide to make out so this movie can have the very specific 1960s Makeout Music play in the background.
