"Mark, I've found a man with even worse facial hair than Vorelli's. You've gotta come see this shit." #Monsterdon

so, the reporter molested the dummy in that cage, and now he's dreaming of the dummy coming to his room begging for help. is every single person in this movie an unmitigated PERVERT?

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

So the thing is possessed by a trapped soul, not a Ferengi or a child or a very short person.

#Monsterdon

Wait, the American guy is named “Mr. English”?

#monsterdon

@Lazarou #monsterdon

"Sexy Dummy Dreams" sounds like a great opening act for "Insane Clown Posse"

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964 yikes

Hugo are those Ramones lyrics

#Monsterdon

Oh wait is the reporter gonna make our with Hugo now? Is the whole movie just telepathic kissing requests?

#monsterdon #devildoll1964

@steggy They try to make me go to the creepy mesmerist's room,. but I say "no, no, no." #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

@fluffy

Yes.

#Monsterdon
#DevilDoll1964

why are there outer space noises?

#monsterdon

It's 10 o'clock, do you know where your devil doll is?

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll

#monsterdon Is it just me or would no one sane go to bed with eyelashes like that?

Dead dummy walking

#monsterdon

I....remember...nothing...

[loses all language comprehension and motor conrol]

#monsterdon #devildoll1964

NO, VORELLI, STOP

well now I'm _definitely_ looking forward to the doll killing him

#monsterdon

"EEEWWWWWW" I say as they kiss

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964 "You speak German? Well no wonder you don't like fun."

@roque 😂 yeah I see it

Gonzo is too weird and not creepy enough to play *this* version of Vorelli, but as a re-imagined version of the character, he'd be perfect

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

He's mesmer-splaining her. #Monsterdon

Very vampiric #Monsterdon

@roque Yes, Gomez. Now, be a good boy and invade Poland again for me, won't you?

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Wait did dude just say "Klaatu barada nikto"?
#Monsterdon

@diazona All I know is Gonzo would be Vorelli #monsterdon

Now if the dummy bit off one of his fingers that would be cool
#monsterdon

Hmmm, I was wrong, this suit Hugo is wearing will never fit me. I guess I have my answer.

#monsterdon #devildoll1964

"Wherever you are, you will come"

*Someone* has a high opinion of himself >_>

#Monsterdon

No! Not that kind of come! Goddamnit...

#monsterdon #devildoll1964

#monsterdon “I have no agency.”

his first question isn't 'why is the dummy in a cage?'

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

"When I call, you will come."

"Not on the first date, buster."

#monsterdon What kind of bizarre power exchange is this? The dummy doesn't have any power to give up, dude!

Who would be played by the human in Muppet Devil Doll?

(a less gross and creepy version)

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

So far this is basically just a less interesting She-Creature

and *that is saying something*

#Monsterdon

come on, Hugo

bite him

you know you want to

#monsterdon

Wait is this devil doll or AliveDoll?

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll #Monsterdon #DevilDoll

On the doll's side here, the reporter is sleaze....

#Monsterdon

I have a theory that everyone is considering the sexual possibilities of that dummy. #monsterdon

Careful, he's bitey!

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Don't know if I'd use the word marvelous to describe a murderous puppet...
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

This thing does have moments of true creepiness. I'll give it that..

Hugo is a weird and less entertaining version of Ted
#monsterdon
#devildoll1964

This guy's obsession with the dummy is the real creepiness in this. #Monsterdon #DevilDoll

#monsterdon Is this just a ploy to get as much food smuggled out of this party as possible?

This is like if they decided to take Annibelle on a stage show tour.

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

wow what an awesome show, the guy who hypnotizes people into thinking they're about to be shot came over and made it seem like the dummy he fucking hates was about to stab him, we really need to keep inviting this guy around everywhere #monsterdon

“And me?”

“Go fuck yourself…master.”

#Monsterdon

well hey

"I am sorry"

doing better than many politicians amirite

#monsterdon

@xerozohar Hey now, this isn't as bad as last week!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Somebody call Brad Dourif

Feed me, Seymour! #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Hugo, you don't look sorry. Your expression hasn't changed one bit.

#monsterdon #devildoll1964

Half the people in the room just shat themselves
#monsterdon

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Hugo, definitely don't put the knife down. Unless you put it in Vorelli.

Anybody else just expecting this puppet to kill the guy right here?
#Monsterdon

Why has the dummy got a coffin suit on?
That jacket is split down the back
#Monsterdon

Hugo looks more than a little like Alfred E. Neuman

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

"a common puppet"

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Oopsie, someone tripped the sexbot vacant stare trap.

ventriloquist dolls are usually weird, but this one is extra weirdo
#monsterdon
#devildoll1964

#Monsterdon

"Hey maybe we should hire an actual ventriloquist for the movie. Or a proper doll mak-"

"Shut up, Steve."

Now it's a party.

#monsterdon

By the way, the major donors for symphony orchestras look EXACTLY like that shot of older women watching this charity show. Jewelry and all

If you wonder why orchestras struggle to have programming or anything that reflects the 21st century, that’s why #Monsterdon

if you were gonna make a movie about a dummy you would think you would bother to get one that didn't look so cheap and shitty

#monsterdon

@ryan It's always at 9 PM ET/6 PM PT (US) on Sunday. We use the #MonsterdonAlert hashtag to coordinate deciding on a movie the week prior, then everyone chooses their own way to watch and we all just start it at the designated time. (Roughly... not everyone is in sync)

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

lol, surly dummy...

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Everyone gets to drink but the dummy. This is just cruel.

Very similar vibes to The She-Creature

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

#Monsterdon 👩 😏 👻 🎎 👹 😱

SO. MUCH. back-combing in these women's hairdos it'll take a combined 1,000 years to comb it all out again

Hoping a tiny wooden hand punches the Yank Reporter

#monsterdon

@Lazarou #monsterdon

ikr I keep expecting her to sing about the Rock Lobster

I wonder what the dummy is up to

#monsterdon

I like Aunt Eva already she reminds me of my own Aunt Eva she could drink me under the table at every Ukrainian wedding #Monsterdon

Oh god don't even get me started on Lady Hampton

#Monsterdon

Cutting to people at a party grabbing drinks is somewhat funny

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Leave Aunt Eva alone! Let her drink as much as she wants.

#Monsterdon

In the next scene, Voreli and Marianne are meeting up in Voreli's Goth House... Marianne inviting him to her aunts charity ball, probably because of telepathic suggestions. Voreli offers her wine called "Blood of the Virgin" which is normal and then seduces her with a wine glass telling her it is "deep and warm". Anyway he agrees to perform at the charity ball or whatever.

#monsterdon

"Did you invite Vorelli to the ball?"

"I tried to, but he kept describing his wine at me."

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Mechanical tricks. That's a rather funny way to call the dummy a whore…

Ugh an aggressive Tubi commercial, and had to skip ahead so I missed some

#monsterdon

we're not a vampire movie, but we wanted to borrow some vibes, okay?

#monsterdon

I would not accept a drink from any man in this #Monsterdon Ms. Horn

[stirs teacup with spoon] #monsterdon

Don’t drink!

#monsterdon

"i don't know how to thank you"

oh i'm sure he'll think of something.

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Zis exposition could haff been a mesmeric suggestion, ja? #Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Yes, we, know, that title has multiple cognates

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

I'm not gonna lie, Vorelli, this smells like turpentine.

#monsterdon #devildoll1964

Here, drink some Blood of the Virgin, that's not ominous at all

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

Completely black walls are definitely an interior decorating choice.

#monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

@ohiofi maybe not very much… they park their car and the camera slowly pans away #monsterdon #devildoll1964

https://mastodon.social/@ohiofi/116038280251772441

Jesus. It's like Michael Jackson's bedroom in here. #Monsterdon

Why do I feel the walls of his "office" are blood red ... nice props, too

#Monsterdon #DevilDoll1964

@GeoffWozniak #monsterdon

did you miss their performance of The Twist?!?!?

@jonny this was before the advent of reddit, his need to smugly one-up a stranger had to be channeled into something

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Still waiting for basically anything to happen.

@steggy
And she had never danced it previously! The Amazing Unexplained Mystery!

#Monsterdon

...Yes, of course it was a succession of theatrical tricks, it was a *stage show* which you *bought a ticket for*

Are you people slow or what?

#Monsterdon

who is this guy some kind of magic scientist #monsterdon

Everyone wants to take advantages on Marianne on this movie
