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

I feel like the Princess and Dr Nadir could do a podcast....

#Monsterdon

(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

🦖#MONSTERDON 🎞️

Lou Cutell played Dr. Nadir here AND Dr. Cooperman a proctologist on Seinfeld (bought The Assman license plate).

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?

Cut straight to technobabble and guys in space helmets, this movie isn't wasting any time

#Monsterdon

Wait the first thing on the screen is literally a monster, bodes well

#Monsterdon

@rebeld 🙇

I'm a little tempted to replace the video in the original toot with the captioned one, but I dunno, it doesn't quite feel right

#Monsterdon

@Configures @ohiofi the enemy being "passing the bechdel test" presumably

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

How Monsterdoners think they look after making a a bad pun while critiquing bad films.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

@rebeld Whenever I manage to add captions, that's top of the list

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

The sound track for Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster was the best part.

Frankenstein Meets the Spacemonster (1965) - Soundtracks - IMDb https://share.google/VvWIZIrH2JkGsNElk

Couple of the credits stand out:

Bob Crewe was a producer with many hits over the years.

Trevor Duncan was a composer whose credits included both PLAN 9 and ED WOOD.

Their music perked up a movie that was doing its best to take seriously a satchelful of ideas that never quite jelled. Thanks everyone and thanks @Taweret for a fun
#Monsterdon .

@diazona they talk about how nuclear war isn't all that bad as long as you steal some babes afterwards

#Monsterdon

@jonny Frank had to fight the monster off so he could storm the bridge and shoot it up so the spaceship would explode! He was a real herobot! Poor Frank. #Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

@Taweret I was strangely entertained. #monsterdon

Frank staying behind to mindlessly complete the genocide of the invading space aliens as they try to escape is kinda hard core. 👀

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

El telephone-o...
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster

@davesdogmaggie you cannot make this movie heterosexual

you cannot

i will not stand for it

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

Another great #Monsterdon in the can!

Thank you to @Taweret for hosting, @Cherizilla for #MonsterdonBingo, and to all of you for making it awesome!

Cheers!

Lol I love that this closing sequence shows pedestrians absolutely full on staring at the camera that's probably filming from the back of a truck. I mean, why wouldn't you stare? I would

#Monsterdon

Earth's breeding stock has been returned and the martians have been defeated. All is right with the world.

To the scooter!

Thank you everyone for a lot of fun, and thank you @Taweret for hosting. See you next week!

#Monsterdon

At this point I expect the Vespa to get its own Very Special Guest Appearance credit #Monsterdon

@Mikal

No, that's FOX News.

#Monsterdon

'What’s this!? the monster has a acquired a folding chair!!!'

#monsterdon
#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

Thanks @Taweret for the event and @ryan for the stream!
#Monsterdon

@jonny But the important part is that they met

#Monsterdon

Saying this had a story, was a stretch.

#monsterdon

Boom - sudden ending.

And it's the big Roman Holiday wrap up scene behind the credits.

#Monsterdon

What

And I cannot emphasize this enough...

#Monsterdon

"This movie brought to you by 25% Stock Armed Forces Footage"

#monsterdon

Just imagine wanting to be in these credits for your frankenstein makeup

#Monsterdon

MOIVE OVER #monsterdon

Everything will be okay because Adam and Karen got the Vespa back

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

you can't fool me, those are _not_ EPCOT's boosters firing. #monsterdon

5 minute left when the title fight starts. Very aztec mummy.

#Monsterdon

okay, okay, we got Frankie. we got Space Monster. WE GOT FIVE MINUTES. #monsterdon

finally they meet! with 5 minutes to spare!

#monsterdon

we've secretly replaced your Vespa engine with a weed wacker. #monsterdon

(women chattering)

about shoes and makeup, I'm sure 60s male writer

#Monsterdon

All that firepower and they couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

#monsterdon

Ah, so nuclear weapons solve everything. Theeeee end. 💁🏻‍♀️

#Monsterdon

Frankie's got a gun... #monsterdon

Whoever's firing those rockets also has Stormtrooper-level aim

#Monsterdon

"Why did we land on a planet with nuclear weapons and milk androids?!"

#Monsterdon

This gets a 3.8 on IMDB. That seems at least 2 whole points too low. But my THC levels at the moment may be affecting my score....#monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie oh yeah, it's terrible in a lot of right ways. but it's not _impressive_. xD

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

NEW CLEAR WEAPONS! #monsterdon

@L1vY@mstdn.social Don't forget the space monster in the cage! That's uh... Really important somewhere coming up soon.

...

We don't have much time left, but I'm sure it is!

#Monsterdon

did they budget for stock footage by the pound? 🎞 #Monsterdon 🤖 #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

@davesdogmaggie nothing about this movie is impressive

other than princess and dr. nadir.

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

I love the smell of Puerto Rico in the morning.

#monsterdon

we are approaching "it was all a dream" ender timings. #monsterdon

A SPASE SHUP #monsterdon

(Man speaks foreign language)

How dare he, in his own country, the fiend...

#Monsterdon

Why take the Vespa, given that we've already established that running is faster?

#Monsterdon

The doctor will never be mistaken for The Ugly American. He's overqualified >_> #Monsterdon

The real star of this film is that Vespa Scooter
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Cessna L-19 "bird dog" recon plane, lil cutie

Space Lovitz is the Ian McDiarmid of this film. He understands EXACTLY how silly it is.

I love 'im

#monsterdon

Frank and the doctor doing some freelance gardening. #Monsterdon

this is not appropriate gyoza filling. #monsterdon

Night time at the party. Day time in the shrubs. Run, Karen, run! #Monsterdon

how much of this weird conveyer belt fetish are we going to stand for?

#Monsterdon

YA GOT TWENTY MINUTES, MOVIE

WHERE YA GOIN

#monsterdon

AMERICA! Moving soldiers! Launching helicopters! Loading things into aircraft! And ROTATING THEM! #Monsterdon

Code 24!

All right, I'll have all local forces round up all of the Frankenstein fanart they can find.

#monsterdon

"Gunfire and unusual civilians"

well isn't this just the USA in general?

#Monsterdon

I feel soiled by the Writer's Barely Concealed Fetish we are all enabling here....

#Monsterdon

Also theremin noises.

#Monsterdon

Every Alien that comes to Earth is a Sex Tourist. It's a law

#Monsterdon

WTF?!

“Let us go in and observe the…heh-heh-heh…purification.”

#Monsterdon

This film so cringe

#monsterdon

I love the middle-aged lady who’s trying to balance a cup of beer on her head! That's my favorite scene, so far!

#Monsterdon

watch out everyone, womb squad just ran here on foot from ???? #monsterdon

@tuckerm @SnoopJ you keep dr nadir name out your mouth

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon how many dudes do they fit in that geodesic dome ship??

Some tight pants in this scene....that's the way it's got to be

#Monsterdon
