They didn't even try to mix that overdubbed dialog to match the scene.
it's kinda like when Odo is melting in that DS9 episode #monsterdon #frankensteinmeetsthespacemonster
Listen - we found a Theremin!
And the scientists have found Frank
"Golly, I wish I could meet a guy named Frank with half his face burned off..."
oh weβre going #monsterdon cave mode
@kshernandez @Taweret maybe alien eyes are like doctors touches or something idk, this movie's so weird anything could be true
Geocaching was a lot trickier back then. #Monsterdon #frankensteinmeetsthespacemonster1965
So he's a cyborg. Sorta? Fleshy bits inside artificial skin and a robot brain. Backwards cyborg.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster
And now, the portion of the movie where they show San Juan as a beautiful vacation destination to get a filming credit
So did Frankie-bot get blasted on the brain side of his head or the tube side?
@amyfou Because once brackish water splashed on it, it was never going to run again. Ever.
In 1965 they didn't yet have "rap song over the end credits explains the plot of the movie you just watched" so they had to settle for "The Kingston Trio provides background for Vespa Lifestyle Footage". #monsterdon
@kshernandez @Taweret I mean, one of the guards was feeling her up with his eyes, does that count?
@jivens Jay and the Americans
@amyfou to cool the rubber?
#Monsterdon
Quarter horsepower scooter has inappropriately mellow music behind it #monsterdon
That was "Two By Two (What Lovers Do)" by Freaky Frank and the Nocturnal Frogs. Stay tuned for the Gin Blossoms up next! #monsterdon
Oooh, an amphibious motorcycle even
We've got to hurry! Get on this Vespa!
- No one. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon the only pacing involved with this film is it's accountants looking at the returns.
Does this thing go any faster? No.
The thing that lovers do... Search for robots.
I know the tone is rather different but this song is giving me Peter & Gordon "World Without Love" vibes https://youtu.be/Tdx6lLvvRyg
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Jay and the Americans: a shitty Beatles knock-off band.
#Monsterdon π΅π· π§ββοΈβοΈ π πΎ π±
But why park the vespa in the water like that, kiddo?
"We'll do that thing lovers do, two by two" Singer makes intercourse motion with his hands, one finger into an encircled thumb and forefinger, while making gross squishing noises with his face hole.
music interlude is messin' with my mental stability
#Monsterdon
Am I supposed to be invested in the love story of the two scientists on the motorcycle? #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon At least the long musical interludes let me keep up with the posting.
Poor guyβs so shy around women with brooms #Monsterdon
He's shy... so very very shy.
Froze up like a shy deer in headlights.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster
Wait I just went to make a smoothie and now the scientists are on a European vacation? Who gave them a Vespa?
Careful with the Geiger Counter. The clicking noises when near radiation give the wrong incentives to puppygirls. #Monsterdon
πΆ I love yoooooooou
Yes I doooooo
Oh oh oh
We'll walk in the raaaaaaain
If you care to
While this movie causes paaaaaain πΆ
Ha! Now it's Roman Holiday meets Frankenstein and the Space Monster.
the early Beatles soundtrack of this languid motorcycle ride by the beach is really racheting up the suspense
Roamin' holiday
#monsterdon They used Beatles clones with vacuum tubes in their heads..
#Monsterdon Nice touch...the Small World Bar while they are cruising around San Juan
Roman Holiday! #monsterdon
#monsterdon So far the "Mars needs women" plot and the "lost airforce frankenstein" plot aren't really connected.
It's like we're flipping between two movies.
Half expect to go around a corner and see one of @Louisa 's baseball games being commented on.
A scenic vespa tour of San Juan?
Yet Another Driving Scene, but this one is on location, so that's cool
Sure we'll find the monster, er, Frank. But first, let's get a Mai Tai! #Monsterdon
What an amazing selection for the music. "As Lovers Do..."
We now join another movie ... already in progress ... apparently. #Monsterdon #frankensteinmeetsthespacemonster1965
okay the idea of a maimed, half-mad politician just roaming around while people are trying to deal with weird sex aliens does at least sound inconvenient
#Monsterdon cut to⦠a film brought to you by the Puerto Rican Tourism Board.
βnobodyβs going to destroy 10 years of my lifeβs workβ. ha. haha. hahaha. hahahaha #monsterdon
Tandem scooter ride with love theme, that screams urgent search for Frank.
(shot moves so slowly that the Vespa falls over)
A vespa thru San Juan? There goes the budget! #Monsterdon
Tappy tap on your shoulder so you know Iβm here. #Monsterdon
did he just try to kickstart a vespa? can you even kickstart a vespa?
Massive traffic jam in San Juan as couple riding lawnmower clog up streets at 4 mph #monsterdon
What the fuck is with the music?
#Monsterdon π΅π· π§ββοΈβοΈ π πΎ π±
Happy vespa tour of Puerto Rico with groovy tunes!
Horsies! But why?
Cue the tourism sequence!
@Taweret Right! They didn't even try to give her medical attention. #monsterdon

Our scientist hero and his assistant are really cruising San Juan's La Fortaleza! That's production value!
So we all agree this scientist has been having a secret sexual relationship with her hunky mandroid, right? #monsterdon

Robo-Colonel's electronic components need to stay dry, and he just went underwater. His logs are going to be utterly unreadable.

Phase 3 may not be possible if we want to keep the PG-13 rating.
#monsterdon Beatles clones!!! Or .. Beatles??
reading his lines or balancing his chequebook? who can tell.
Zoinks scoob!
Full credit to the robot/human actor. He looks like heβs having fun not having fun #Monsterdon

"Karen, nobody's going to destroy five years of my work! Get on this vespa!"
Does he have a sequencer in his head or what? #Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster
Why the two hoses there? Were they gonna milk him? #monsterdon
We'll do a whole thing where we drive from the airport with no dialouge. It won't be boring at all.
The blasters leave Trinitite behind!
This movie is NASA approved! Completely factual space science lies here in.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster
#Monsterdon just put that radioactive glass in your pocket, m'dude. That'll be good for the jublies.
Men in Black: Mounted Beach Police #monsterdon
If you ever wondered what Pink Flamingos would be like with Raymond and Connie Marble living in a Puerto Rican geodaisic dome with Gwar's Oderus Urungus as their pet...your brain should be studied.
But also, your ticket has come in! Now you know! #monsterdon
oh right his name is frank. frank n saunders?
Atomic Glass! Highly radioactive, so I'm holding it in my bare hand.
OK, here's the thing I've learned about humanity. The Martians don't need to kidnap Earth women, they just need to host a reality show contest called "Martian Breeding Stock."
There will be plenty of applicants. They could keep it going for decades, and make a boatload of earth money too.
yeah i bet those horses are doing wonders for that crime scene captain military
It's a coprolith. From the dead guy. Fused by enormous concentrated heat.
That specimen looks kinda like a piece of ginger root #Monsterdon
I'm going to assume that the princess is going to get up to ovipositor shenanigans
#Monsterdon "Nobody's going to destroy 10 years of my life's work". Oh, you.
Under our SOLE supervision GET IT?!
Bikini blonde role is credited as such in imdb so I know in advance there's no hope here for a Bechdel pass #monsterdon
And then the ants, right movie?
[shakes TV with both hands]
AND THEN THE ANTS, RIGHT!!?!?!?
