Meanwhile, in stock footage of a dam bursting...

#endoftheworld1977
OK, so we'll use some of the actual footage from other movies.
Insert flying nun joke here.
UATU?! #Monsterdon
so is there any conflict? they are just leaving? #monsterdon
"That's a fine offer, but I'm space-protestant."
The transporter at least would make a great album cover.
God is not in this movie.
It's interesting how effectively Wim Wenders used these same effects in his Until the End of the World.
(that might be a joke for no one)
#monsterdon
@moira You need Ming for that, this alien is more like Bing #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
OOps, i had the teleporter set to disintegrate, my bad
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
THis is either going to be an Adam & Eve thing, or a "use the crystal to reverse time" thing.
Wait, how did she start going wub wub before she was under the crystal. & wasn't that the fourth nun? #Monsterdon
Restarting AppleTV. Haven't seen that happen to me before
#monsterdon βIt's only a modelβ¦β
Is the World ending in news clips of disasters?
You mean the aliens win? Jesus, Grampa, what did you read me this for?
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
In the right light from a certain angle, Scientist-dude looks like a young Roddy McDowall.
Yay!! I can check off the "portal open" box on my #MonsterdonBingo card!!

I thought God promised no flood next time!
"Well that escalated quickly."
Three, three nuns! Ah ah ah! #Monsterdon
Apoca-lee-pse
Donβt tell me, Windows is doing an update π€ͺ
@TerryHancock I mean if you consider that last week's movie lowered the bar through the floor...
Back when I made that joke about the catholic church being the monster the whole time, I didn't know it would end like this. #monsterdon
donβt leave us Count Dooku this diseased planet needs your gravitas #Monsterdon
Where's the Doctor when you need them?
Nooo my model village! #Monsterdon
"Emergency Speed!" Launching nuns through space at ludicrous speed!
"A nun teleporter, that's your fiendish plan?" #Monsterdon
and to think that normally I would be THRILLED to write "Alien Space Father Christopher Lee". What a waste of potential this movie is
Where's the hot hail? I was promised hot hail!
I'm confused: are the nuns actually typhoons? #monsterdon
#monsterdon This footage of slightly stormy seas surely heralds the END OF THE WORLD!
Wow. The end of the world WILL be televised. #Monsterdon
So, maybe giving them the crystal was a bad idea?
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
Is this Dr.Who
diseases emanating from earth
Spoilers for John Carpenter's "They Live".
We got 15 more minutes. Is that paint dry yet? #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld

is 200 million km/hour really 3x the speed of light?
Emergency speed is variable I guess?
smh at the villains explaining their evil plan
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
One! One nun! Ah ah ah. Two, two nuns! Ah ah ah! #Monsterdon
It is the end of the world as we know it, it is the end of the world as we know it, it is the end of the world as we know it... buh bye!
THIS FUCKING CONVENT IS GOING WARP, BABY. #monsterdon
See, we're putting all this footage of old disaster and war movies on these crappy TVs instead of like, actually paying for some SFX for our climax.
It IS slow paced and dated, but this movie is not really that bad, IMHO.
#monsterdon I've always liked the long blonde/black brows look. Reminds me of Denise Targesson or whoever from GoT
"We have the direct path."
It's just a jump to the left. #Monsterdon
So this movie is a metaphor for European diseases in the Americas?
Soooo...these aliens motivations are basically "I'm going to take my ball and go home"?
#monsterdon
"The Planet Earth has emitted an overabundance of diseases."
I mean, hard to argue
(but seriously I doubt Alien Space Father Christopher Lee's understanding of epidemiology and terrestrial pathogens' survival in the vacuum of space)
This convent is a deadly lazer
actually, Father Alien Chris Lee has a point. the earth should in fact be destroyed.
Christopher Lee is like "Y'all too nasty, we gotta burn the Earth down."
Oh, are we finally getting to the "end of the world" part?
#Monsterdon
#monsterdon #endoftheworld (as we know it)
The planet Earth has emitted an overabundance of diseases.
Wow. Save the Green Planet.
Apparently diseases travel through space faster than the speed of light.
NUNS...IN...SPAAAAACCCCEEE

#endoftheworld1977
The planet Earth is contaminating the universe.... WITH THIS MOVIE.
@xerozohar I hope so; I have "hot alien babe" on my bingo card.
Earth is so dirty it's polluting the galaxy? Okay, that does sound like us. #Monsterdon
Oh, so the NUNS are gonna END THE WORLD #Monsterdon
...because of diseases?!?!?!
βWe agreed that youβd be back by 23:00:00, and it's 23:00:01. Youβre late. The agreement has expired.β

NEON BRAIN I'm counting it for bingo purposes even though it will not help
Are they both clones?
@raederle I mean TBH I would be more suspicious if it weren't
@CactuarJoe we were robbed.
even in the 1970s, not many spaceships went with trowel-textured hulls, very on trend of them
Out of tune banjo klaxon?!?
Also, this is the worst TARDIS interior ever.
This film sure does like to thrum at you, doesn't it?
That dude watches so much TV. #Monsterdon

"The agreement is expired" is a new one
#Monsterdon
Calling it now, wife's been cloned
@diazona My cup blackberry infused whisky absolutely is a direct result of this movie.
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
The agreement has expired. Pray that I do not expire it any further. #monsterdon
I'm guessing the budget for this movie went 99% on the two explosions #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
What do we think, is this globe from some oil cos cast offs? #Monsterdon
Alien powers revealed thus far:
- Weird hand
- Cloning
- Vulcan death grip
#monsterdon
Expired, why you two timing space priest!
"The agreement is expired... as have you."
C'mon movie it's sitting right there
Spinny purple globes are an essential component of interstellar travel. #Monsterdon
@CactuarJoe Dooku the early years I'm tellin' ya
"...trust I don't alter the agreement further"
#monsterdon Pray I don't change it again... MUHAHAHAH!

Pyrotechnician: If you all arenβt going to make this movie interesting, **I** will!β
#Monsterdon
Pray I do not alter the agreement any further!
