#monsterdon Father Dracula, have you noticed anything evil going on?

That’s right. Blame the opera-loving nun. She just wanted to hear Suor Angelica

#Monsterdon

The set designer put 6 random people at a table with one mug each. Not one of them is moving, nor drinking.

#monsterdon

@Lazarou

How could it detect anything else!

#Monsterdon

Tricorder readings are off the scale, Captain

#monsterdon

"Do you ever hear strange noises here in the convent?.."
"Occasionally animal noises."

'Sister, fetch the unicorn."

#Monsterdon #TheEndOfTheWorld1977

sure is nice the nuns get coffee every day at a table

#monsterdon

Christopher Lee is smiling like he can't believe how good it feels to not have fangs jammed in his teeth.

#monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Nunneries are creepy af.

#Monsterdon

please give christopher a microphone

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe Good gawd (pun intended)

#monsterdon

I'm Christopher Lee, you might remember me from the first scene.
#monsterdon

my wife and i saw your convent from across the bar, and... #monsterdon

It's the End of the World as we know it

and where's chris lee dammit

oh there he is

#monsterdon

“He always welcomes strangers.”

Doesn’t sound creepy at all.

#Monsterdon

Shittiest parking job ever.

#monsterdon

Father Pagoda?
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977

@klu9 I think his contract might have stipulated billing by the minute on this one.

#monsterdon

What's with all the wholesome marital sex? Don't they know it's 1977? #Monsterdon

creepy nun just standing there....

#Monsterdon

Andrew turn the light back on, if I can't see you I feel like I'm making love to a Furby

#Monsterdon

@culturednyc This came out in August 1977, Close Encounters in December 1977. So John Williams probably stole it very quickly ಠ_ಠ #monsterdon

@MatthewTitus88 the opening scene was promising. i want that movie back #monsterdon

This amount of nudity and sexuality is really low for a late 70s movie.
#monsterdon

Gratuitous towel action!

Neither can we, Andy. Neither can we.

Presumably Salyut 5 or 6 for the soviet stations?

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Grandfatherly cardigan.

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Circular graphs!

#Monsterdon
#EndOfTheWorld1977

Ah 1977, when you could just wander into a secret military outpost and get a guided tour

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

is this where they run the numbers stations from

#monsterdon

Never trust a man wearing a string tie

#Monsterdon

Joeseph Beckerman?? Of the southampton Beckermans??
#monsterdon

(Sweet and Spicy Cones are activated!)

#Monsterdon

Thank you for speaking up for the audience, ma'am. #Monsterdon

I keep on expecting his name to be "Buran", not "Boran"

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Big smiles all around. "Oh you're still not going to leave here alive."

#monsterdon

Any relation to Schlermy Beckerman?

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld

"What's the matter?"

"We talk to each other once a month on the telephone."

In 2026, that would indeed be unusual!

#monsterdon

They pinned us against the wall with a shotgun! It's a gag! #Monsterdon

glasses guy might as well be Christopher Lee for all that this movie wants me to see what's going on

#Monsterdon

oh no L Ron Hubbard #Monsterdon

❌ Aliens
✅ Muggers

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

It's a zoo for commandos!

#monsterdon

haunted saloon piano running amok offscreen #monsterdon

#monsterdon They don't, though.

They don't do that.

@xerozohar So did any song that wasn't on the first four R.E.M. records.

#monsterdon

@401matthall @overholt Technically it's not too late... (https://miru.miyaku.media is a good option if you actually would like to join in partway through)

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Batman villain henchmen are not to be messed with.
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977

OK, yes, I know you just had a traumatic encounter but hold up, I wanna follow this will o wisp. #Monsterdon

Well, shit, something almost happened. That was a close one.

#EndOfTheWorld1977 #Monsterdon

Also, if my bingo board has alcohol in a square, is that alcohol in the movie or my hand? Asking for a friend #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

#monsterdon No exit strategy, no situational awareness, and a high pitched thrumming noise. Good, go berzerk. Berzerk beeotches don't fetch no coffee! WENCH!

I’ve lost the plot, I need to know what model 82 is from April 1977 or older. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Interesting that a mock-up shuttle shows up in a bad movie 4 years before STS-1 #monsterdon

Andrew?
I remembered something is supposed to happen eventually?
#Monsterdon

I think the world ended, that's why nothing is happening

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Andrew? Andrew? Will you turn off the Moog now, Andrew?

#monsterdon

She just walked in a circle for 2 minutes of film time. That was an amazing use of media. #Monsterdon

my threshold for "things happening" in real life: animals or inanimate objects are performing some action that i find interesting or relates to me.

my threshold for "things happening" in movies: explosions, sinister space dames, horrible monsters fucking everything up

#monsterdon

Maybe the world deserves to end if this is the best team we have
#monsterdon

Attempting to watch this installment of Monsterdon outside on a sunny day was clearly a mistake in hindsight #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

"We could get in trouble."
"If it's the end of the world nobody will care."
"Maybe. What makes you say that?"
#monsterdon

wait for it .... wait for it ... aaannnnd .... never mind. Nothing jumped out from the shadows.

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld

Despite all my rage, I am still just a wife in a cage.
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977

@CactuarJoe can't see shit, capn!

#monsterdon

Can someone restart the movie, please? I think it froze.

#monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

#monsterdon

"We'll get in trouble"

"Yeah, we might."

Time-stamping the possible famous last words

#Monsterdon 🙏⛪️👰‍♀️🌍️🚀 👽️🌋 😱

can sneaking through a hole in the fence count as a 'secret passage' for bingo purposes?

A zoo for ANTS?!?!

#monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

"Andrew, we might get in trouble!"
"That's what makes it sexy, baby."
[More terrible synth music]
#MONSTERDON

#Monsterdon 🙏⛪️👰‍♀️🌍️🚀 👽️🌋 😱

it's already nighttime?

@neia As noted in Mario Puzo's novel The Godfather, of all places

#Monsterdon

Thank god they lit this so we wouldn't be disturbed by "scenery" or "objects"
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977

@CactuarJoe Ba-dum-tis!

#monsterdon

I can just imagine St. Catherine getting sick of listening to everyone's prayers and tending this one random church garden to decompress

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

#Monsterdon US vs imperial standard minutes

#monsterdon Thrill as our hero strolls around a convent!

It's the End of the World as we know it

and here's some nuns

#monsterdon

So... The nuns' praying is accidentally communing with aliens and sending them code to geologically attack Kinshasa?

... those missionaries will stop at nothing.

#Monsterdon #TheEndOfTheWorld1977

There were two nuns gardening and one nun said to the other

#monsterdon

Hot nun-sploitation action!
Hot & heavy flower gardening!
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld

the Nun is guilty of the sin of Pride

#Monsterdon

THEIR MINUTES ARE MEASURED ON A DIFFERENT SCALE THAN OURS????

Maybe you have a severe head injury or a dangerously high fever or are taking hallucinogens to say something so stupid.
#monsterdon

#monsterdon You can drive to the origin of a signal from space?

What did I misunderstant?

That's a lot of off screen devastation happening.

#monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

@Taweret Right? If we don't get a connection to first scene, that also means the filmmakers gratuitously blinded a man for no reason.

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

The theremin is essential when trying to contact God

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

I wonder what Christopher Lee is up to. I hope this movie has more Christopher Lee than Death Line did.

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

@Bluedepth look, those big light bulbs are expensive

#monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

And now, on As The World Turns...

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld

#monsterdon So why did that guy set up that work light?

Just to make the scene dramatic?

if you've never worked on the stage before, that is known as a "ghost light" and is turned on and left out all the time the stage lights aren't on - so you don't trip over set pieces or fall into a trap door hole!

#monsterdon

Ghost light! Spooky! 👻

#monsterdon #endoftheworld1977

Careful movie, you don't want to give your audience ideas on how to leave when things get boring

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

As common as Ma Bell. We all know how that turned out.

#Monsterdon

MF 23 minutes into a less-than-stellar 70s movie on #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Surprise interlude where Lord Buckethead appears and does unclear antics.

We get more star trek noises in the computer room as Andrew goes back to listen to the space computers and gets more messages that I can't read but I guess said "10 standard minutes".
