looked away to work on the poster for a minute, look back because of the screaming and the cyborg has already gone rogue, he was normal for barely 5 minutes #monsterdon

#Monsterdon a cyborg.... driven .... to KILL

Maybe this open flame will calm him down

#monsterdon

"sit her in the back row etc"
is this gonna turn into a monster and/or cyborg fucking movie? coz i'm not 100% against that, i just wasn't expecting it. #monsterdon

Maybe we'd trust robots more in 2025 if they made bleep bloop noises

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon full marks for this actress on her evil queen smirk.

Our wounded robot spaceman looks like he has a couple of lamprey eels on his chest.

#Monsterdon

IT'S THE SPACE MONSTER! #monsterdon

Mull: Hi.
Support group: Hi Mull.
#monsterdon

He seems nice

#monsterdon

Lol Alien Whamo Air Blasters. I had one of those as a kid in the 70s.

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

Space bassoon sounds ominous #monsterdon

#monsterdon Looks like we found Two-Face after all…

#monsterdon I love space princess hat! It deserves to be in every movie.

He took a shotgun to a laser blaster fight
#monsterdon

#MONSTERDON 🎞️

🧟‍♂️ TRIVIA MEETS THE SPACEMONSTER

Remember, the alien guns are slightly modified Wham-O Air Blasters.

#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

The tragic end of Elmer Fudd. #Monsterdon

It's a Buckminster Fuller spaceship!

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster1965

Guys, using what might be footage of F1 engines isn't going to work for retrorockets

#Monsterdon

Y'know for Space nerds there is some great stock footage of NASA craft here....

#Monsterdon #Space

LES stock footage!

#Monsterdon

This Bezos / Dr. Evil creature has some extraordinary eye-rolling skills

#Monsterdon

I like the Princess's style of command.....

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon i am loving this launch prep montage with the weird existential rock song

i love the soundtrack.

#monsterdon

look scientist man is not wrong about the idea of unmanned space exploration

#Monsterdon

Army Frankenstien? #monsterdon

This is what a shy person's brain looks like though #Monsterdon

This dude glitched like Mitch McConnel! #monsterdon I knew he was a robot.

"How much longer until we reach the space center?"

"About five minutes."

Gripping dialog.
#monsterdon

Cyborg Colonel!

#Monsterdon

Freeze frame!

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

Speaking of NASA, I was wearing my festival boiler suit with the NASA patches on it for my Mother In Law's 60th last night and while having a vape on the street outside the pub a young women in a pink tracksuit asked me if I was from NASA and I think she really meant it, bless.

Anyway, the movie...

#Monsterdon

And now gentlemen, the Holiday Inn staff are asking us to clear out

#monsterdon

Welcome to NASA in 1965

ASHTRAYS EVERYWHERE

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

They look so uncomfortable. #monsterdon

I really didn't expect to be this enthralled by the visual choices.
Also NASA nerd points yess.

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster1965

@ricci the music must be playing on loudspeakers outside the car. #monsterdon

I am seriously loving the stock footage.

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster1965

@mmezabet #monsterdon

they get into clown outfits before climbing out.

Ha! Everyone into the back seat of this car! Is that general sitting on the lap of the lady?

#Monsterdon

That's a very uncomfortable back seat arrangement there, is this a ride share?

#Monsterdon

Evil laugh!!!

So far this is knocking last week's movie out of the water.

#Monsterdon

Who is this dynamic man? #monsterdon

"Pressure suits and breathing apparatus" so I'm not the only person who find the plural of apparatus awkward to use?

(I always want to say apparati)

#Monsterdon

Is that one of the demon women from Mars? #monsterdon

"A missile attack, how quaint! Vaporize their largest continent." #Monsterdon

Aw yeah, give me an elaborate headpiece immediately. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon they found intelligent life on earth? i don't believe it

Huh, Uncle Fester the Vulcan. #Monsterdon

alright i'll be half watching this one since i gotta get my second scipy poster ready still.... but i can't focus anyway so why the heck not #monsterdon

Wait, this is tied to Futurama?

Is the Space Monster Zoidberg?

#Monsterdon

Futurama what?

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster (1965) #monsterdon now playing on https://miru.miyaku.media :miyaku:

@combatwombat ooooh I love this 😂

#Monsterdon

Seeing the #monsterdon posts in my timeline is like having a backstage pass to Mystery Science Theater 3000. :-)

Bat boy and the Alien Princess were really giving off Riff Raff and Magenta vibes. I kept expecting them to do the forearm-touching thing at several points.

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

@WhiteCatTamer @wohali oh excellent, thank you! This is a good one

#Monsterdon

@ohiofi They came so close to passing the Bechdel test! But Karen was determined to give no valuable intel to the enemy, and good for her. #Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

And a big thanks to @Taweret for that wonderful tale of Beach Mayhem, Aliens Need Women, a Secret military robot-astronaut named Frank, Bat Boy chewing through the plywood sets, women under sheets being evaluated as prospective breeding stock by the Alien Princess, heavy use of stock footage, radioactive atomic poop, and a poor misunderstood Spacemonster in a particularly hot costume trying not to step on the cameraman. Oh, and the director's enthusiastic fetish(es).

I think that covers the high points. And coffee.

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

@blogdiva Oh no. Well it's a charmingly good bad one. It's short and stupid. Would recommend a watch even after the watchalong.
#Monsterdon

@wohali @WhiteCatTamer There is this https://techhub.social/@diazona/114809613155327817 but they weren't really smirking in that scene

#Monsterdon

@socketwench Really. Just "greetings, we're space aliens of the planet [indistinct]. We need some people to leave your world and become breeders on ours because somehow our big war selectively only killed women."

I mean they would have totally gotten volunteers back then. And today they'd have to fight off all the people who'd do almost anything just to get off this planet.

Instead they went with all this and got themselves blown up.

#Monsterdon

So--"Distant Cousins" did the music. I gotta say that they're a great knock-off band,
laying out the styles of the popular music at the time, from Billy Vaughn's "Wheels" style guitar work at the beginning, British Invasion style, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Rivers style...man, they're talented that way. Not as agile as The Roots but damn close.

Oh yeah--I did do a bingo card, got a bingo quite some time ago--but I have to say that when I marked "radio broadcast" it was in reference to a sound effect they used as precursor to theramin: it was RADIOTELETYPE. Yessirree, this movie was a nerd's delight!
#Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie I like Mel Brooks. Young Frankenstein is one of the greatest comedies ever made.

But his films are _very_ heterosexual. Not on purpose! Not with intent! Just are.

That's why we need someone like John Waters. The queerer, campier, and more tragic they can make it, the better.

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

lol according to letterboxd i *have* seen this before? #monsterdon

I gave it one star on #letterboxd mainly on the strength(?) of Dr. Nadir's weird performance https://letterboxd.com/anderson_petaq/film/frankenstein-meets-the-space-monster/ #monsterdon

I feel bad Karen is trapped in this film #monsterdon

That was a classic "Y'all quit smooching and clear the theater" ending.

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

On an unrelated note, all of the commercials on Tubi were in Spanish.

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

🦖#MONSTERDON Goodbye!

Thank you @Taweret for hosting this fast-moving flick! I knew I was going to like it!

and thanks @Cherizilla for the Bingo card! My favorite was "Someone Gets Smacked". Probably should be permanent.

And to all the members of the Real Time Film Analysis Squad: Thank you for a consistently funny tootstream!

Damn that was a good movie! #Monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow It had space helmets and monsters and fake ears, it had everything I love about mid-century sci fi :D #Monsterdon

Cripes, does this movie end with the US military invading Puerto Rico?

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

That’s some humorous scrambling the jets music! #Monsterdon

@cocaine_owlbear
Me too. Born in 1952, visited PR in the 7th grade, wore outfits like that, joined the Army just after Nam- so it was a lot of flashbacks! #Monsterdon

Watching this mofo again tonight.

#Monsterdon

@himbovoorhees c'mon, it's a classic "suddent end" #monsterdon style!

Did anyone else notice that they deployed FU squadron?

#Monsterdon

(But not really. I’m just doing a bit. I’m sure they’re lovely people, or were.)

#Monsterdon

I did get bingo before the end. Just barely!

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster1965

Hey, where's my intimacy coordinator...!?

#Monsterdon

@jonny The movie isn’t called Frankenstein Fights the Spacemonster, it’s just Meets, and I think they technically got there. #monsterdon

'This scene was brought to you be The Male Gaze®…yes, The Male Gaze: "It's Hegemonetising!"'

#monsterdon
#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

That was sure a movie!

I hope Karen can find another way to fill her heart now that Frank is gone

Thanks @Taweret for hosting, and thanks community for the laughs! :)

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

The fuck was that ending.

#monsterdon

With minutes to go, the space monster is out of its cage.

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

@binford2k Well, if the subtitle spelled it “el telephono,” then the subtitle writer is racist. ;-)

#Monsterdon

I looked away while I was typing and missed the end to the very, very bried fight between Spacemonster Mull (Mok?) and Frank

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

WELP THAT'S IT SHOW'S OVER

#monsterdon

Progress Island! Puerto Rico!

#monsterdon
#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

#Monsterdon 🇵🇷 🧟‍♂️☄️ 🌌 👾 😱

I guess I missed the ending.

Oh well.

Thank you @Taweret for hosting, @JoeWynne for the excellent trivia, @Cherizilla for the bingo cards even if she couldn't watch with us, and, as always, most of all to our fellow #Monsterdonians for making it fun!

Fell asleep through most of the film, woke up just in time to see the alien space ship blow up. Guess I didn't miss much!

#Monsterdon

Well I fell asleep for the last 15 min or so. Or maybe not idk #monsterdon #frankensteinmeetsthespacemonster

How much is Adam enjoying being grabbed that way? #monsterdon
