#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Oh, that went from 0 to 100 real fast
#Monsterdon

Sure, right out the window.

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

The agony of coffee was so unbearable the only way he could mitigate it was by smashing his face through neon. A timeless story. #Monsterdon

you might have to wait a while for that coffee 😬

#monsterdon

That's some coffee maker accident right there. :O

#monsterdon

I shot the phone booth! But I did not shoot the coffee machine

@ohiofi

From Soho down to Brighton he must have played 'em all!

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld

extremely promising maniac guy being visited by a priest in opening shot, this is the kind of tone i want set in a movie. #monsterdon

Is Christoper Lee going to sit down with a guy wearing a fez and establish that all of humanity is "made of meat"?

#Monsterdon #TheEndOfTheWorld1977

#monsterdon #endoftheworld (as we know it)

The priest is angered by the sin of Pinball.

wow, not even 30 full seconds in and here's our man! this movie is great!

#monsterdon #EndoftheWorld1977

All movies should start with pinball

#monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

#monsterdon

#monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

#Monsterdon
#EndOfTheWorld1977

Vintage pinball, hm

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

I think Jissōji loved Hiroko Sakurai as much as I do. She appears in several of his movies (including sex scenes!). #Monsterdon

MULTIBALLLLLLL

#Monsterdon

the cold open was a bold choice...

#MOnsterdon

End of the World, or: We Should Be So Lucky

#Monsterdon

Dr Coincidentally Disappearing Sculptor #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"Strange... does he keep it on top of the toilet tank or by the sink? Oh, you said laboratory" #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"It may be possible they can do for you what I cannot do" which is to grow a credible mustache #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

Doctor Weiss had to quickly leave for his farm where he'll be happy and have lots of room to operate around #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

Ludwig: "Well THIS comes out of nowhere wtf dude??" #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

If this were a modern movie, Ludwig would be the smrt lady nobody listened to #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

And top it up with a little more smoke

#Monsterdon2 #monsterdon

Meanwhile Janine is busy at her job with the Ghostbusters #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

He couldn't get acess to anymore cadarrverse, but if he'd just asked for a cadaver... #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

Oh, just kiss already. #monsterdon

Revitalized organs have had their pipes thoroughly cleaned #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"I was touching up a section of the... plinth" yeah I bet you were #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

Inspector Gimli is on the case #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

Patricia Laffan is taking her sweet time to show up, I want to see Ludwig run into an invisible wall #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"Are you prepared to leave the protection of your morels in my hands?" no and none of my other mushrooms either #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

It's a treat to see Christopher Lee in a Hammer film playing this sort of character. #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath

"I came here for one simple reason" a quick paycheck #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

And this is the end of a #monsterdon thread for the 1977 movie "The End of the World" aka "Oops all Nunsense".

"Is it necessary to go alone?" take this #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"Professor Ludwig is very capable" he's ableWeiss #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

YES! WE BLEW UP THE FUCKING EARTH! MISSION FUCKING ACCOMPLISHED! #monsterdon

"It had to happen!" No, not really. #monsterdon

Movie in the foreground, episode of Friends in the background #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"When you talk of this wisdom" and these teeth #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"a Brave New World" now who could possibly object to that?? #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

I feel like the stakes should have been made clear earlier in the movie but that would require some sort of competency not possessed by anyone involved in producing this movie. #monsterdon

"One is force to look bacon survey, the past" #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"Half of what makes this reputation belongs to you" awwww it's so sweet when married couples still get along after all that time #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

George: "It means everything to me. You have such beautiful... glands" #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

15 minutes left to destroy the Earth #monsterdon

"It's easy to say" not with your accent George #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

Oh no. The #monsterdon streams are out of sync.

Now everyone delayed will learn that this guy and ludwig drive off the edge of the grand canyon in a convertible while running from the FBI.

(spoilers for 20 minutes in the future, btw)

"I have been taking this fluid every six hours!!" me complaining about having to stay hydrated #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

yeah pal I've been "taking this fluid" every 6 hours too

#monsterdon #WrongEnd

dude had a stroke, don't be blaming him for not coming earlier

#Monsterdon

I like that the globe is rotating, but not on the axis. #monsterdon

@strangefour playa gonna play

#Monsterdon

If you're bisexual, just say so already. #Monsterdon

This guy really likes Beethoven #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

"It doesn't make you happy" no but those do #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

Not sure Hazel Court's character is elevated particularly by wearing a cushion on her head #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

whoa, all the security guys just exploded! what is even happening. #monsterdon

Lady, he's probably got a real bad habit.

#monsterdon #WrongEnd

"I saw the statue last night" is that what the kids are calling it these days? #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

No instrument implies life-or-death tension quite like the glockenspiel #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

#Monsterdon

And the Earth blows up in the explosive conclusion.

Earth go BOOM!
#Monsterdon

And now time for more popcorn.

He looks like me after I finished watching that last movie.

#monsterdon #WrongEnd

one last thing: shoutout to the STS Enterprise (I think?) for the cameo in "End of the World."

Well done, ye old girl. well done. 🖖

#monsterdon

Just carries a bottle of chloroform with him, "for reasons" I guess? #monsterdon

The subtitles on this are horny for the sounds of drawers and locks.
#Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath

"I Need A New Watch" the rejected initial title of I Want A New Drug #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

#Monsterdon

Nicely hypocritical parting words from smug alien jerk.

#Monsterdon

I can't say I approve of these aliens' agenda.

#monsterdon still alternating between having The End of the World (Skeeter Davis) and It's the End of the World as We Know It (REM) stuck in my head

Sculptural nipples. *wink*
#Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath

This is before Dr Bonner established his soap empire #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

So... is the world going to end or what? I don't have all day. #monsterdon

I don't like the mustache. But it's not bad. His haircut feels more off. It's too stern and slick. But that fit is killer. Really shows off his figure.
#Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath

Christopher! That mustache! How gauche!
#Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath

@RobynGoodfellow @holly My Dinner with Andre

#monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

#Monsterdon well that was definitely a film.

it *did* have some explosions and christopher lee's head turned briefly into an alien head, so i guess that was cool :D

Oh is this gonna be the sculpture of Dorian Grey?
#Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath

@holly Mary Poppins. The Devil Wears Prada. Paddington. Oh! Babe: Pig in the City. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld

@RobynGoodfellow @Taweret it's a habit

#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977

Rue Noire aka Rue McLanahan's after dark alias #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

I came back to credit text. Well the lighting is already a great improvement. Is this a period piece?
#Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath

@Louisa@mastodon.xyz yeah it takes a team to make movies sound good and no this movie did not have one, and yes most #monsterdon movies are bad but this one was exceptionally noisy

"bright flute music"?

#Monsterdon
#TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959

#monsterdon See Hammer Horror figured out this whole shooting at night thing ages ago. Just get 10 minutes of blurred lights in a pitch black soundstage and you can re-foley and re-use them in every fim you make going forward

#Monsterdon no 7 minutes *plus* however much time is left in the credits

#Monsterdon tubi *claims* it's 87 minutes

just got to the credits now at 94 minutes into watching, which i assume means 7 minutes of commercials?

And they fucked off into the sea.

*shit, you don’t know. coulda happened

#Monsterdon
