it's weird because this looks like summer but the days are almost vanishingly short
Guess: when he get's back, 'Sylvia'βll be a clone.
Isn't it rude to serve someone food then just sit there and watch them, without also eating?
The only good thing in this movie is Christopher Lee and now we have half as much Christopher Lee.
Okay, some kind of ... underlit acrobatics. #Monsterdon

wait is she wearing a denim jumpsuit?
"What could happen with all those nuns?"
It's the end of the world as they know it but he feels fine
@CactuarJoe Mission: Nunpossible
If you or any of your team are captured Father Pedro will disavow any knowledge. #Monsterdon
He spoke to a guard early in the movie. It seemed like they had a good relationship. I bet that guard gets killed.
I don't think alien nuns praying for you counts. #Monsterdon
ooh ooh someone (else) might be killed? Maybe even in an interesting way? There might be hope yet
Oh and donβt antagonize the space nuns.
"It's just the protection of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes the Holy Spirit has to blow up a car." #Monsterdon
#monsterdon so they managed to get Christopher Lee for the movieβ which I guess was their dream, because this is basically a search and replace "vampires > aliens"β but him being there only makes it worse that this ISN'T a vampire movie
"We shall look after your wife until you return."
Six nuns and your wife.
John Davis & the other, unnamed but implied by narrative, guards. #Monsterdon
aliens donβt know nuns donβt even drink orange juice everybody knows that #Monsterdon
DIRECTOR: No, Christopher, MORE wooden. Stop being a great actor, dammit! Just, I don't know, say your lines without moving your head. The accent will take care of at least 68% of it."
#monsterdon
look, father fellatio was a sensitive human be
"You mean the protection you used to kill the priest & driver!"
Yup. They sure do.
#Monsterdon
"...we want that variance crystal, and we want it now!"
"Sorry, we're out in the middle of nowhere. Amazon Prime doesn't do same day delivery here."
I'm not sure these people will be allowed back into their society, if it's so perfect
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
What do we want? The variance crystal! When do we want it? Now!
STOP KISSING. It makes me want the aliens to win.

#endoftheworld1977
"We will look after your wife until you return."
"Good luck with that, it's a three-man job at the best of times."
Our male lead is so petulant, jeez. He looks so put out. #Monsterdon
Lol yup! Same protection! β:explosion:β #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
Yes, they are controlling you. #Monsterdon #EndOfWorld
Bad luck, eh?
They need dilithum
@davesdogmaggie We thank you for your attention to this matter.
"What kind of planet do you come from that you'd kill to go back there?!"
Oh you're one to talk, every Earth person who leaves goes murderous to get home, given half a chance. #Monsterdon
Woo! Coffee on the table! Will they drink it?
I saw two hits on "reason not to pick up hitchhikers"...any more? π
"England!"
FInaaaaaaaallly... #Monsterdon
@me Mind control, remarkably similar to complete disinterest.
@apLundell@timeloop.cafe It's the US, cars have more moral weight than humans
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
And now we get to watch breakfast. I guess they're saving the paint drying for the big climax. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld
The most poignant shoulder pat in cinematic history.
#monsterdon
"Welcome To St Catherine's, We Leave A Bush Out For You" #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
Alien Christopher Lee is channeling the Tall Man.
This is also very reminiscent of some Aaron Spelling sci-fi that shewed-up on the old "ABC 4:30 Movie", e.g. "The Love War".
Me: that guy sounds like he's on ludes.
Him: this whole movie's on ludes.
#monsterdon
Oh gosh, they let the guy die? Very helpful for someone who was trying to help you two
#Monsterdon #endoftheworld1977
The fluid in those glasses. It's like someone added milk to orange juice
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
dammit, Catholic horror aliens on #Monsterdon and I am riding the train still!
incessant soundtrack buzzing is a part of this complete breakfast
#monsterdon There is a chance those two are high and all of this is the molly
70s cars were so splodey.
"And now, for our more dreadful sacrifice."
#Monsterdon πβͺοΈπ°ββοΈποΈπ π½οΈπ π±
In this whole movie I think there have been maybe 3 shots that I understood the purpose of
Worst. Dinner. Party. Ever.
#monsterdon
"Whelp, that happened," the movie.
Alien nuns- a part of this complete breakfast.
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
Not surprising they can't escape in this dark. We are trying to see a movie somewhere on this scenes!
#Monsterdon #endoftheworld1977
#monsterdon "Of course. They're controlling our every move. That's why we can't escape!"
Are they controlling you like a video game protagonist? Because you ran away but "away" was back to the convent π€
In the alien's defence that was pretty standard behavior for a 70's car #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
ikr "Please help us! We have to get back to Spahn Ranch!"
The two most expensive scenes in this were blowing up that car & demolishing that pay phone earlier. #Monsterdon
And so I'm having a wonderful time, but I'd rather be whistling in the dark
Is "A Car blows up" a regular on the bingo cards? It really should be at this point. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld
alright well at least we got a car explosion out of this movie i guess
What kind of hat is that guy wearing and why?
Because the explosion was inevitable.
Huh, they didn't really react to that. They seem kinda
nun-plussed. #Monsterdon
oh my god the nuns did a car bomb
YES! Blow up the ugly 70s car! More! MOAR!!
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld
#Monsterdon πβͺοΈπ°ββοΈποΈπ π½οΈπ π±
oooooohhhh noooooo not that nice man and his sedan!
See, this is why you don't pick up hitchhikers π₯ #Monsterdon
And that's where the budget went
#monsterdon
Well that was ALSO excessive...
So far the moral seems to be "helping people is deadly"...?
#monsterdon
Yes, mind control makes perfect sense with the science theyβve set up so far in this movie π
#Monsterdon
You try to help, you're gonna get pinball wizarded!
well now there's plenty of light for filming, that's nice
That's what they called "bad gas" in the 1970's.
welp, something happened.
#monsterdon Here's the film's entire budget.
No not fire! Light! ohh fine.
"They're controlling our every move!"
That's why we're padding the film with an evening jog through the orchard.
So far this movie would make a really good 5-minute music video.
Doing some Nun-busting with a radio doodad #monsterdon
I should have known that nuns are really aliens. That explains so much of my childhood
#Monsterdon ah ok yes. i feel like they could've gotten to this point 45 minutes ago
We could've had a fun time variance crystal heist with nuns, but nooo #monsterdon
lol they are running back #Monsterdon
@steggy I'm telling you this is a cursed tech weekend!
He's gonna fling himself through a window and a neon sign, too. #Monsterdon
This script is a series of 1am truth social posts.
Wtf is this weird ass music π«ͺ
"....be vewwwwy vewwwwy quiet, we're hunting strangers"
look, say what you want about this music, but for a cat thrown on a piano keyboard I think it came out pretty dang well
