Nun jump scare, sort of.
NUN MUGS

Well that's not creepy at all...
#Monsterdon
"Good morning, Sister. Who's in charge of the convent? And who is that gifted theremin player I hear in the background?"
Ooh, this convent sounds cursed!
This is a pretty interesting couple who are like partners in crime. They seem to have a good relationship.
Father Pergado always welcomes strangers. #Monsterdon
I think I actually fell asleep for a minute
Dang, the nuns got those roses in fast.
I feel like this os a cautionary tale, but I'm not sure what it is I am being cautioned against. #monsterdon
@nev@status.nevillepark.ca The alien signal that's both from Earth and not from Earth originated there, I think. One of them, anyway
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
now, granted i have paid attention to about 5% of the movie, but it's smazing how long a movie can go on without a single event occurring #monsterdon
Seriously, did they have a sale on doody-colored cars?
Debauchery dies in darkness.
What, will she become a nun or something?
#Monsterdon #endoftheworld1977
I feel the eepies coming for me, I might have to drop off halfway. >.<
In 1977 this counted as foreplay.
Why were they going to the convent in the first place anyway?
#monsterdon sex in the dark? What are you, Amish
#Monsterdon πβͺοΈπ°ββοΈποΈπ π½οΈπ π±
These nuns are very good at hedges they should try some topiary
I wonder what Christopher Lee is doing right now.
so is this just going to be a day in the life of a university professor, interspersed with him having sex with her? and then the world ends?
That sex was so unsatisfying they're going to a monastery to feel a passion. #Monsterdon
so, do we think Chris Lee is in this movie, or like...
#monsterdon Oh no. They're going to have 1970s sex!
Movie reminding us that the Hays Code was no longer in effect
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
Wearing your towels to bed, as one does.
#monsterdon #endoftheworld (as we know it)
Good thing they got rid of that extra light in the bedroom.
That nun just stands there all day.
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
"I wish I could tell you but I can't" was a satisfying answer for everyone involved apparently
Oh come ON, you monsters, leave the light on. #Monsterdon
I know what youβre thinking. Did we remember to thank Bob for being so pleasant.
Awww, c'mon movie, not again!
She's going to join that convent. Tomorrow.
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld
Is there a website that quantifies just how much Christopher Lee you get in a Christopher Lee film?
Is this classier than Roger Corman? Yes. Is it more boring than Roger Corman? HELL YES.
Stockings dring over a door on a towel, this movie knows just how to ramp up the sensuality #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
"Did she fire six shots? Or only 5?" #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld
please no more romance. please
Well, on 2026 there's a bunch more nations up there, mister.
#Monsterdon #endoftheworld1977
Nope, Sue Lyon. Thatβs not what he was thinking.
Lighting designers are overrated. #monsterdon
Oh man, dig that 1970s collar and lapels.
Always know where your towel is, and... never forget your towel
Thank god they're both in towels.
#monsterdon
ugh, they're not gonna kiss again, are they?
"Commander, my wife Sylvia."
"I still don't know what's going on."
"That's because the commander here shows up as 'Hot Steamy Mil-Chat inc'. on our phone-bill. Remember, I told you it was a weather-reporting phone-service?"
Er, her towel has a brooch? Damn that's fancy. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon All that room would fit in a raspberry pi nowadays
Is it allright though?
Wait, Jerome Powell is in this movie?
oh hell no tell mo tel
Think what it'll be like in just a few years when Elon Musk screws up LEO for all of us #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
My secret is bigger than your secret! #Monsterdon
βAndrew, we might get in troubleββ¦ look lady heβs trying to nail you constantly, breaking and enteringβ¦ most guys have their midlife crisis with someone 20 years younger and a new corvetteβ¦ enjoy the ride! #monsterdon
Well. That whole sequence was pointless.
OH GROSS END THE SCENE
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
#Monsterdon in the 1970s women were _mortally scared_ of not having their man with them for a period of more than 20 seconds
Also we're getting security exclusively from henchmen from the Adam West Batman tv series.
You can tell the older scientist is underground because he buttons his shirt all the way, and our hero is above ground because his shirt is open to his pectorals. It's basic science!
#monsterdon
are there any Soviet sci fi movies with menacing American scientists? there must be at least one, right?
"Shall we commence our towel games?"
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
#monsterdon I find these folks clearly overdressed for your run of the mill invasion
These lapels are sending me. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon πβͺοΈπ°ββοΈποΈπ π½οΈπ π±
wow he really went hard on the 'RUSSIAN'
NUMBER STATIONS!? Russian number stations? Are we entering conspiracy town?
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld
Small world, isn't it.
Let me threaten to kill you and then oh we're all buddies because we know each other? I appreciate Sylvia's skepticism here.
"I still dont understand what's going on."
Way to be the audience inset character, lady.
all these chart recorders, this is a power station or a seismology setup
βItsOkNoItsNot
#Monsterdon #EndOfWorld
No, Susan, itβs not ok.
Andrew is lying.
#monsterdon #endoftheworld (as we know it)
As Lolita said, "I still don't understand what's going on"..
None of us understand what's going on, Ma'am.
@paco
He's trying his best. His best is not good enough.
#Monsterdon #EndoftheWorld
That's ok they didn't arrive alive either #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
this lady really doesn't know anything about her husband's life #monsterdon

#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
Wait, what about the hot-headed Romanian? #monsterdon
Not THE Joseph Beckerman?
It's the rare movie that portrays driving scenes in real time.
"I know this guy on the internet"
Professor Boran, of the Bletchfield Borans?
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
This has to be the most bizarre sci-fi synth I've ever heard
#Monsterdon
@rebeld Yes what is even happening
Sings: Nobody knows the trouble I'm in.
Rocking that string tie.
He's put on his glasses to check the chances of dude's survival. #Monsterdon

Nothing says "dangerous arrest" like olde-timey Western saloon piano #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
