And they pulled out the stops on the Moog!
Finally, some REAL spacey action!
Standard villain operating procedure β when you capture interlopers, you take them on a tour of the facility.
That look of disgust the priest gives them as they come in. Even Christopher Lee doesnβt want these two in his movie
LOL Bermuda Triangle
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
They stole a globe from the Universal Studios Tour!

oh, experimental electronic music nuns
that's how you know it's Technology, the use of colored light bulbs.
Oh. They're a synth band. Cool. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld
Are the nuns the aliens?!
#monsterdon Not the nuns!
Is it possible this film was originally meant for a French or Italian audience, with subtitles that have absolutely no relationship with what the characters are actually saying?
Because then it would make sense; if it's actually about the couple trying to come to terms with the effect that a misjudged attempt to join the world of swinging had on their marriage.
The nuns are a METAPHOR for loss of sanctity and trust in the marriage.
Wait. Is this Super Mario Bros music?
Three Christopher Lees, no waiting. #Monsterdon
TARDIS basement? It's got more wine cellar on the inside.
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld
Im having flashbacks to catholic school.
NOOOO I was getting some Faygo and I missed the only action of the past 40 minutes!!!
#Monsterdon πβͺοΈπ°ββοΈποΈπ π½οΈπ π±
The killer space nuns put their terrifying bony hands on these people but then just walked with them to visit Chris?
Nice prosthesis, sister. #Monsterdon
The constant rumble of ambient background noise would be disquieting if it were done purposefully #monsterdon
Don't get into the habit of skulking around that nunnery.
Zombie nun!
Why did it look like a zombie arm reached out from the darkness to grab her?
It does look like they're breaking into a key party at the Chateau Marmont.
βThe only thing we can do. Go it alone.β
Sir, that makes NO SENSE. Thatβs not an action plan! #Monsterdon
Why did that one nun have a monkey paw hand? Will we get a reason? No I don't think so.
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld
"What are we going to do?"
"The only thing we can do."
Stare silently for like 10 seconds before saying the next line...
NUNS RUN AMOK
OH NO NOT THE EVIL NUNS
LOL, cracked Nun squad got them fast
#monsterdon
"The claw!"
THe nuns are setting up a disco!#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
okay, getting caught by creepy-armed nuns is something. i wonder how this will turn out to be a non-event.
did that count as something happening?
Quick! Come back to Monsterdon! Something happened!!!!!
Nuns!
Nuns?
NUNS!
#monsterdon
@Taweret I think itβs a documentary on the history of computer hardware in the 1970s. Iβm not sure they fact checked it though. Canβt find model 82 computers #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
@Taweret after what we watched last week I'll believe anything is a movie
@pngwen
A bold statement to the US military. They are definitely surveilling them now.
#monsterdon The cigarette was a surprise huh? Just gonna skip lighting it, yup! It's running, always has been... lol
Again I ask, is this a movie by accident because it's an experimental album first?
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld
Why is moody piano music in the background of this sunny scene?
#Monsterdon
Over 30 minutes to go so let's hope it is all Christopher Lee (correctly miced)
#monsterdon
#monsterdon #endoftheworld (as we know it)
10 minutes of walking in the darkness. I.. movie... what...
Okay, not lighting this scene helps, actually. #Monsterdon
Well, we definitely know they didn't shoot any βday for nightβ scenes in this film. It probably would have helped it they had.
I wish I could read a thing on the screen or the printer
#Monsterdon #endoftheworld1977
and now, sneak sneak time
What are we going to do?
The only thing we can do, drink a lot and smoke cigarettes.
@Taweret Next week's recommended cocktail
Dude, flick that ash.
@moira@mastodon.murkworks.net and there's at least one song on the soundtrack that supports him!
Maybe exactly one
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
This may be the first #Monsterdon I've seen to feature a dot matrix printer!
Forgive me, but in a crappy movie when I see 'theyβre soooo in love' repeatedly emphasised, all I can think is 'Fridge.'.
WAIT SOMETHING HAPPENED WHAT WHAT #monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
"the only thing we can do"
turn the movie off and go back to bed? please?
Wait. Before he sat down in the chair by the pool, he was wearing a different sport coat, wasnβt he?
That green and white striped paper was the bomb for making craft projects!!!
So based in what I've seen, this movie probably would have been better off as a fifteen minutes short film.
that liquor looks more like flat soda or tea
@cocaine_owlbear I think this is what was on the computer in the first scene.
Those nuns ratted us out to God. #Monsterdon
They just smashcut to an ad for perfume.
#monsterdon
@paco awwww so lovely and big and blue they were!
#Monsterdon πβͺοΈπ°ββοΈποΈπ π½οΈπ π±
The dramatic tearing of the fan-fold printer paper.
run 20 return to 10
Or whatever, I don't remember shit about ancient coding.
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld
...and we're back in the dark.

#endoftheworld1977
Her newspaper's leaking
cinematographer wants so bad to be arty but
Does it look like a Zoo? I can't tell because EVERYTHING IN THE SHOT IS FUCKING DARK. #monsterdon
These dumb terminals really take me back
This movie looks like it is starring John Kerry.
is this even a movie?
I wish I could tell you, but my actions are completely inexplicable. Even to me.
Why that shot, though #Monsterdon
This version of True Lies is *terrible*.
#monsterdon
would he be in the epstein files
suddenly: ennui over modern life.
@amyfou Hard disks. They might be as large as 5 megabytes.
I'm not kidding. I think that's what they are.
I WAS PROMISED THE END OF THE WORLD⦠WHERE IS IT #monsterdon
Most exciting pool scene since last week's monsterdon!
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
Fuck. I had that same small-checked sports coat when I was a kid. Mine was blue and white. It was like if VANS made suits.
Stop teasing me w/ line printing!! #Monsterdon
#monsterdon "our instruments are usually quite accurate" going onto my 'bad gig excuse generator'

GREENBAR!
Back to what this movie does best... #monsterdon
Looks like the WOPR has decided on its final strategy, and just needs to decrypt the launch codes.
Ooooh. Old dude just literally doesnβt like him and wants him out of his non-existent hair
Oh he's picking up the alien dating profile. #Monsterdon
"...if you see anything out of the ordinary, I want to know about it"
"Of course," I said, suddenly realizing that the two tabs of acid I just dropped might have been a bad idea.
I was just kidding about the taxes thing movie. Really you don't need to.. Okay.. fine. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld
#monsterdon #endoftheworld (as we know it)
Since nothing is happening..
Is Dean Jagger related to Mick Jagger?
Back with the mainframe again
Mkay, gonna bail early and get some zzzs. Will catch up tomorrow. I am le tired.
His boss looks like Alan Alda nowadays
