Frank, after wandering the Caribbean : “Fyre Fest Bad!”

#monsterdon

Whatchya doin frank?

Oh just Frank things

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Whoever was in charge of the soundtrack for this film should have been fired.

It took me until just NOW to realize this film is black and white 😳

#Monsterdon

b***** that guy was only normal for 5 minutes you do not get to be in love with him the plot does not warrant it #monsterdon

Can't help but wonder why the *princess* is the one judging the captured woman...

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon aliens involved in illegal human trafficking

"I want to inspect her myself"
uh, is the breeding stock for the Princess? #monsterdon

I wonder for what reason they had no dialogue in that beach kidnap sequence. Couldn't get good audio on-site because of the wind and were smart enough to write that in or adapt the script on the day of shooting?

#Monsterdon

What is with this era of movies and their obsession with breeding :neocat_surprised:

Is this a post-WWII social thingy?

#Monsterdon

Ohhhh, this is where the Frankenstein Monster thing comes from, isn't it?

The Android Astronaut has gone berserk, like a Tesla!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon So, is NASA not making any effort to recover their bailed-out astronaut?

It was a bold decision not to employ actors for this movie, it almost paid off....

"THERE CAN BE NO MORE FAILTURES"

That monster is clearly on the bad acid, hence the Jazz

#Monsterdon

The villain's costumes. I need a behind the scenes explanation/story. #monsterdon

preliminatry pre-takeoff procedures. so before before the takeoff? i think someone's getting lost in their own jargon here. #monsterdon

"...but what about the pre precautionary pre-takeoff pre-procedures?"

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

Remember when you were wishing the rockets to launch? Remember those days?

#Monsterdon

This really is what people were listening too as they designed and built humanity's greatest rockets

#Monsterdon

check out this dope cyborg guy look at him brain *fiddling with the doodads with a giant screwdriver* #monsterdon

A Frankenaut!

#monsterdon

NOT EVEN TRYING to get the dubbing aligned. not! in! the budget! #monsterdon

I like the contrast between the princess not acting and baldy being a little too excited

#Monsterdon

@diazona Hah! Superb!

#monsterdon

Well Frank and the Space Monster fucked off into the sky over the sea, I guess?
And the scientists cold on the trail are going to fuck near the sea shore.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster

@rebeld

Spaceship’s fueled by babes

#monsterdon

And when they met it was murder...
And very very foggy. We can't see the fight guys.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster

Thank you @Taweret for the one touchpoint we can all agree on. Mostly. 😆

#Monsterdon

@binford2k

"It's those Swifties, I tells ya...!" /s

#Monsterdon

Frankenstein meets the Spacemonster: the best possible reminder that the quality of the movie bears no relation to the quality of the viewing experience. I had fun tonight 😀

Plus the meme potential is off the charts

Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting! Looking forward to next week!

#Monsterdon

I found the clip this is referencing, and it's almost as long as the movie. Six minutes in and it's been Jean Shepherd musing on the gas crisis, talking about how people from Connecticut are more polite than those from New Jersey and two solid minutes of commentary-free ham-boning. #monsterdon

#monsterdon I passed out. It's nearly ... yup.. its over. Okay! Moving on! hahahahaha

I feel like if this was edited down from 76 to 50-60 minutes, it would at least be too fast for us to care.

I guess delete the space monster, let Frank be more heroic for longer, and less of the weirdly slow travels and dances in the middle/later parts of the movie. It would still be a silly movie, but it would keep Creature with an Atomic Brain level of energy, so...

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Okay, I don't think anyone will be surprised that I absolutely loved that. It was well paced, didn't overstay it's welcome, and came with more cheese than a cheese making convention.

Plus, that soundtrack.

That was amazing.

That flying saucer is much bigger on the inside. And more square.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster

And the aliens fail to fuck off into space. Frank gets repaired, and then with Karen goes on a romantic trip on a vespa around Puerto Rico.

#Monsterdon

And we are wafted away on that surf pop love ballad... #Monsterdon 🤖 #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

Wow.
I have an easy go-to aweful ending of a movie now.
a certain kind of impressive.

Well, I'm off to a chaser. Maybe The Addams Family or Screamers or something chill yk

#monsterdon
#FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster1965

Want Dr. Nadir (my beloved) to escape so that we can get a sequel

#Monsterdon

I thought they were just going to meet

This is so aggressive

#monsterdon

I mean a nuke would be overkill but yeah, we could blow the shit out of an apartment sized spaceship. #monsterdon

Epcot is under attack. Deploy the mouseketeers

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon F-86 Sabres as well, classic bird

@ottaross I was pre-warned that neither Frankenstein nor his monster actually appear in this movie

...so yeah, I guess

#Monsterdon

Take off every zig for great justice

#Monsterdon

Sky king! Sky king! Aaaaand sky king. #Monsterdon

these are great scenes!

WHY ARE THEY HERE?!

#monsterdon

Scramble all jets! Scramble all jets!

Quick, to the station wagons!

#monsterdon

I'm glad they've given this radio operator a lot of lines, he's magnetic /s

#Monsterdon

Just imagine if they had made these vespa scenes after segways were invented

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon how many women does this binder hold?

@CactuarJoe I'm betting 1.7 Aztec Mummies
#Monsterdon

@ricci Do you think NASA was charging and that is the real origin of all of our problems in terms of spending priorities? I'd buy it...

#Monsterdon

I want to see the doctor and Frank hold hands. They keep getting very close to it, but they never quite connect.

#Monsterdon

... Can we bring back this Music Break Between Every Dialogue Scene or Two?
It's like.
Really calming on my autsi social anxiety X,D

#neurospice
#monsterdon
#FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster1965

Be right back, saluting the stock footage

#monsterdon

"Can't I just be flavor-blasted like the others?" #monsterdon

"Our electronic purification is going smoothly!"

"Yes, just how I like my OJ - NO PULP!"

#monsterdon

I hope this spacecraft has some Tardis features, 'cuz it's going to get pretty crowded in the little geodesic dome they've been showing us.

#Monsterdon

Wow, they didn't try at ALL to save those women. #Monsterdon

Hey! That alien copped a feel! Watch them hands, Yoda! #Monsterdon

I think what really bothers me about all of these "we need X gender to fix our problem" movies is that any civilization that has developed space flight significant enough to send people to other solar systems should have developed artificial wombs and could solve their problems by just getting somatic cell samples (or germ cells if they were really picky) from a bunch of people and everyone would leave happy.

(can you tell I lost the plot a while ago?)

#Monsterdon

"i dance with a paper cup on my head! i'm so wild and crazy!"

#monsterdon

This is the worst movie to have the best soundtrack I've ever heard.

#Monsterdon

karen where are you goinnngngggggggggggg you had one job #monsterdon

lol, Adam and Karen really are on two different channels here

He's all focused on his little projects and she's telling him she's leaving him for a robot man

#Monsterdon

Frank's got ten megs of RAM, he's state of the art! #Monsterdon

@SnoopJ Looking forward to a meet-cute in which the spacemonster knocks the latte out of Frank's hand so they go to a little cafe to get a replacement

#Monsterdon

But he LOVES like a man!

#Monsterdon
#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

@ryan Heck yeah love a #monsterdon cave

Another "Beatles Interlude" as my kid is calling these musical scenes inserted to make up for lack of script. 😂

#Monsterdon

These musical interludes are quite baffling...

#Monsterdon

Frank's got all the lithe grace of a ketamine-addicted mountain lion. #Monsterdon

lol...the android still looks like a ket head at a beach party....

#Monsterdon

Oh great, now Steel's hand is gonna melt off like that scene in Chernobyl. #Monsterdon

@ramsey "Spacemen came and zapped my rich husband away. Please can everything be mine now"

#Monsterdon

Well if they get a few more women onto the alien spaceship, there's an outside chance they might still meet the Bechdel test.

#Monsterdon

Who wrote this, the internet?

#monsterdon

get fuckin blasted you beach bozo!!!!! you have no reproductive utility to us! #monsterdon

this sequence feels awfully sexploitative for 1965

#Monsterdon

"we have no women"

Canonical proof that the Princess is a drag queen.

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe She’s like a Bee Woman from that other movie we watched.

#Monsterdon

Y'know, I think the aliens came to the wrong planet. There's only one woman IN this movie. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon ah the usual Martian captive breeding kink

(the ramen was an absolute triumph and is now all gone)

#Monsterdon

PAUSE! Frankenstein has arrived!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon and we have a body count :D

Want to know why the henchment need space helmets but the princess and Dr. Nadir (my beloved) don't

#Monsterdon

"Stations for landing! Fire rockets!"

Is he talking to...just the two of themselves?

#Monsterdon

Dr Nadir, father of bat boy. #monsterdon

Say what you want but Dr. Nadir really loves his job. #Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

#monsterdon That's James Karen, who was also Mr. Teague in Poltergeist in 1982.

Soundtrack available on Monsterdon Records!

#Monsterdon

Science glassware in an inappropriate setting!

Can that be a bingo square in the future?

I see monkey bar lattice (well that's always appropriate) + clamps, volumetric flasks, Erlenmeyer flasks, rubber stoppers with jury-rigged tubing connectors!,

arg, background is too blurry in the later parts of the scene to ID things well

#Monsterdon

Have you tried turning your astronaut off and then back on?
#monsterdon

See what the US could do with a high tax rate on the rich?

1960s Androids

#Monsterdon

don't touch the one giant capacitor storing his whole brainwaves without proper grounding that's how you get a heart attack, or heart engram transfer, or whatever #monsterdon

I know its early but this guy might be the new mascot of #Monsterdon

goddamn I love the way the music cuts out for the interior car shots then when we go exterior it's like "I'm back bitches!"

#Monsterdon

The prosthetic ears: so obviously fake, but it doesn't matter I still want them.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon is that… Count Orlock?
