This women conveyer belt thing is the worst in-flight entertainment I've ever seen!

Crap, theyβre going to show Adam and Frank walking the whole dang way #Monsterdon
"I'm certain Karen drove the scooter up this exposed ridge, it stands to reason" #monsterdon
Geez, dude. You sent Karen away. Why the fuck are you wondering where she is now?
@ricci It helps that media created by the US government is automatically public domain.

#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster π§ββοΈ
We're gonna get 10 minutes of stock footage and then 25 seconds of Frankie-bot vs. The Creature from The Black Lagoon, aren't we?
stock footage -- drink! #monsterdon
Um, these soldier uniforms are not from the same decade as the party we just saw #Monsterdon
I was so occupied by the puzzling fetish material that I forgot about the stock footage
Fun fact: footage produced by the US govt is public domain and thus even cheaper than the rest of this movie! #Monsterdon
"...we got a Code 24, see"
Wait wasn't the guy just calling him Colonel and then he picked up the phone and said, "General Bowers speaking"??
@allanb HE SAID TWIX NOT ROLL HOW'RE YOU GONNA ROLL WITH A TWIX SOLDIER GOT AN ANSWER FOR ME THERE?
ROLL THAT BEAUTIFUL STOCK FOOTAGE
"It's been eight minutes. GET ME SOME STOCK FOOTAGE." #monsterdon
so now we're gonna have the Bay of Pigs because Frank is mildly radioactive? #monsterdon
It says it right here in the script, general
#monsterdon teletypes on full alert!
"Code 24" is that his manchurian code phrase?
oh my god it was Code 24
You just received a Twix from Washington?
poor Mull. he just wants a friend, but no one speaks his language and they all just scream when they see him. i'd be in a bad mood too. #monsterdon
If you have prime and are interested we're going to be doing the new Jon Cena/Idris Elba movie at 10 P ET tuesday night for #Catitstu I sensed serious paycheck grab but quite a few people have told me they liked it. #monsterdon
Produced by dirty old men who wanted a free Puerto Rican vacation.
Dr. Nadir and the Princess are enjoying this entirely too much. #monsterdon
she's in no real danger, it's just that his breath is _so bad_
they haven't taken him to the vet since the war
ok that was a good fast zoom
βThis is a very advanced-looking device for this society. What is this device?!β
βItβs my Tamagotchi pet! Please make sure you feed it!β
#monsterdon Wait, I thought you wanted to useful mates not monster food..
OH WAIT MULL IS THE SPACEMONSTER
Itβs the slow blink school of method acting. The script must have been reviewed by cats!
#Monsterdon
[sighing] itβs a βpocket retro game emulatorβ? does that make any sense to your people? #monsterdon

Mull....of Kintyre!
@ricci I mean I would be bored too (if not for the #Monsterdon feed) so it seems fair
Putting them under fitted sheets so they'll never find their way out.
Strange how all the women are so cooperative.
#Monsterdon
Ok, seriously, this movie was written in 1965, did they not think to get a "don't sound like a Nazi" consultant?
Not all the women filing through the space ship like itβs the third time theyβve been abducted by aliens this month π #Monsterdon

Scientist Karen (though sheβs currently my fave character in this movie who isnβt wearing a headpiece) really needs to work on her screams #Monsterdon
I think the Martians chasing the scooter on foot counts as "Vehicle Chase" to me, actually. Marking it
Meanwhile, the vespa has travelled one hundred more feet.
I guess that's one way to enforce no diving in the pool, damn #monsterdon
No shit, this song could have been a hit in β65.
@Newpa_Hasai interplanetary party crashers!
The spacemen brigade are going to empty this sock hop of all its breeding stock!
Is there a special reason most of the pool party footage is focused on the groin area?? #Monsterdon π€ #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster
#Monsterdon it's like the tardis, but they don't want _a_ mate, they want _to_ mate
30 dancers and one guy just doing laps because he can.
They're not going to get their full deposit back on that scooter #monsterdon
@apLundell about to connect in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... #Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster when Karen's trying to get help for Adam and their monster child, Frank? Or will the space men crash the dance party? Stay tuned to find out!
and now for some shots of people's butts while they dance
60's butt cam. #Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster
Pretty sure the good acid in the 1960s had you thinking spacemen were chasing you....
They're hunting Prince of Space! #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon single woman? walking alone across the puerto rican beach? you just *know* she's gonna get picked up by martian kidnappers
The most interesting thing so far has been the power dynamic between Princess and Nadir.
And the 60s music
It's always fun when I watch an old monster movie at 1.25 speed to catch up and it feels like it's at the normal speed of a contemporary movie.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster
Aliens: put on full protective suits when venturing out on earth
Poor kidnapped woman: offered no sort of breathing apparatus whatsoever #Monsterdon
"GOODBYE Adam." Does she know something about Pathmark Man's fate that we don't? #Monsterdon π€ #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster
Is Karen next for Martian Lesbian conquest?
It'd be funny if some of them got the giant pawn laser guns but others got laser rooks or laser bishops
HOW MANY PEOPLE FIT IN MINI-EPCOT?! #monsterdon
Tell general Bowers thanks for letting me use that old watch for the makeup application
Itβs a clown spaceship.
@davesdogmaggie Nah, that's definitely Lore. #monsterdon
Oh I totally missed it but I believe I have bingo

just tell the robot to ignore all previous instructions and play Despacito
okay, so they're patching in to Frank... #monsterdon

Yeah, no Frankenstein or his monster.
But also, the planet Mars is never mentioned in the movie, only in marketing materials.
#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster π§ββοΈ
Are they using a studfinder to locate Frank? #monsterdon
Please bring back the pronunciation of robot as "row-butt."
bet she doesn't want to fuck Frank now.....
We have period rock music over a NASA montage? I feel like this movie was edited on accident.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetstheSpaceMonster
@ProngSprong_nCloven we suspect it is a broken theremin. #Monsterdon
Screaming is acting
WAIT, they were on their way to find Frank? I thought they were on a date or something.
Listen - we found a Theremin!
And the scientists have found Frank
Pathmark Man's Vespa ride accompanied by romantic surf pop seems... inappropriate π΅ #Monsterdon π€ #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

Performed by The Distant Cousins
It's not so much "Frankenstein *versus* the Space Monster" as "Frankenstein *juxtaposed with* space stuff"
I've a soft spot for a genre picture that often doesn't care what genre it's in. Right now it looks like "Puerto Rican Holiday (featuring The Thamesmen)".
They're actually filming in Puerto Rico and I can only imagine how fucking humid it must be and how insanely uncomfortable it must be in that melted plastic face makeup. Lordt.
the cyborg is cooked

β¦and parking my moped right in the muddy water, just like I planned #monsterdon
#monsterdon A lovely shot of tilled earth..
grand parking job there lad, right in the puddle
There's always time for a long moped drive. #monsterdon
Why does the cameraβs framing of the princess make me giggle
