This movie could have been an email-- err.
This movie could have been a really fun episode of Tales From the Crypt. Shorter.
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985
@jonny the heat wants what the heart wants.
Where and at what time of year is this film taking place, where it is pitch black outside at 6:10pm?!
"Whair is the lair of this vampire?" #monsterdon
Vampire who is just named "Jerry" is a little disappointing
#Monsterdon
There is no way to eat an apple without looking like an asshole.
I thought vampires were supposed to be sexy. #monsterdon
Just put some holy water into his bloody mary for dog's sake
Great clock collection! I mean, that whole house is awesome #Monsterdon
I feel like Evil and Vincent are both #Monsterdon audience surrogates :P
You kids wanna do a few rails
this whole room is cooocoo for cocoa puffs
he kept the prop. Poor Peter Vincent #monsterdon #FrightNight1985
Savings bonds! Back in the day our grandparents used to buy savings bonds to give on our birthdays.
I actually still have a few. They've reached maturity, so I should probably cash them.
The 80's, when it was normal for kids to have savings bonds
plot twist is that he's actually an actor, is telling himself this is a gig, and he has no actual vampire-killing skills
"i have a savings bond" lolololololololol
#Monsterdon 🧛🦇 🧛♂️🦇 🧛♀️ 🦇😱
roddy's hair and eyebrows have clearly been spray-grayed, seems weird for a show that otherwise has pretty good make up and stuff?
Gonna suck his way through the entire town eh? I think that is an entirely different kind of movie #Monsterdon
Unclear on how the candles were supposed to provide vampire defense, but okay
oh brooster is his last name. thats why he kept calling him that
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985 Where did he get the statue of Mary?
Why is Roddy McDowall’s gray heir so fake?
LOL
"suck his way through the entire town"
thinly veiled double entendre for the win.
#monsterdon
Confusing Mr Vincent and Mr Rogers
Just take the gig, Vincent.
#Monsterdon
Teenagers saying I love you (romantically) 😖
amy will learn a lifelong lesson, that she cannot fix him #monsterdon
#Monsterdon 🧛🦇 🧛♂️🦇 🧛♀️ 🦇😱
i think she missed the whole thing about 'coffin'
Amy would never have spoken to him again, but we needed another sidekick and it's cheaper just to keep one actress. #monsterdon
"suck his way through the entire town"
Evil sounds excited for the entire town to be sucked...
"what's all this?"
"I'm trying to burn the house down."
"I lit a bunch of candles that last for 10 minutes because I think a vampire is coming here in 4 hours."
tell me gremlin friend isn't a proto-weeb. look at that t-shirt. absolutely anime nerd, right off camera
@blueemu To suck all the oxygen out of the room?
#monsterdon Boys, he's a vampire not a compliant date!
#Monsterdon 🧛🦇 🧛♂️🦇 🧛♀️ 🦇😱
I think i saw bobby pins in Mr. Vincent's hair?
He said the name of the movie, which is also the name of the show in the movie! #monsterdon
If she doesn't say "Sorry, Charlie," at some point I'm going to be really disappointed
"Girl's Locker Room" Okay.. Creep Charlie just got waaay creepier. #Monsterdon #FrightNight
Good point. Charlie
#monsterdon
I can smell this scene...
#Monsterdon
You can make anything be true by saying "You HAVE to believe me" intensely enough, but I don't think Charlie has it in him
The nutters you must get working in the TV industry "vampires are real, you have to help me"
He shut the lid on his bag's shoulder- strap
Mr Vincent's gonna feel silly when we find tthe MC's bloodless body on the lawn tomorrow morning.
Roddy McDowall!
#Monsterdon
this man's performance is most of what is keeping me engaged in this movie, now
So, is Peter Vincent just some guy on the local cable access channel? Like Elvira was?
So far Mr. Vincent is the best actor in this whole movie :D #Monsterdon
thank god that there is a good character in the movie now
There is something off about this vampire hunter's hair. It's too uniformly grey, like someone did the baby powder in the hair trick.
Roddy McDowell is great in this btw #monsterdon
Roddy McDowell is great in this! #Monsterdon
Yep, pretty sums up what the youths want.
#Monsterdon
...okay look there's Checkov's Gun and then there's OH WHAT A CONVENIENT INTERVIEW
#monsterdon I believe in Vampires and Santa Claus!
Peter Vincent's accent is suspiciously similar to Nandor The Relentless #monsterdon
@Louisa The pettiness has only begun. #Monsterdon
Charley getting a crazy notion that a TV horror host is going to solve his vampire problem. #Monsterdon
Is this Russia
I'm sorry, but if you can't distinguish between werewolves and vampires you aren't a "great vampire killer". I don't make the rules.
Lol I have to say, I'm losing a little respect for Nosferandon now that he's beefing with a high school kid and destroyed his car
Oh yay he pointed the stake the right way this time
maybe Charlie can call Vincent Price.
"You started this, Charlie. I'm gonna finish it."
So... coming out of the closet in the last scene was...? #Monsterdon
oh hey, Monsterdon within #monsterdon
Charlie forgot the vampire lives next door and maybe he should close the blinds. #monsterdon
This movie was very meta a decade before Scream.
@steggy Clearly the pencil was made of some sort of holy wood. Plus it was enchanted.
A Holy Pencil of Hand Stabbing +2
#monsterdon Since there's a Coors sign It's worth pointing out that there was a bit of mystique surrounding the brand at that time as it wasn't available nationally until 1986. Burt Reynolds made a whole movie about it.
@ramsey Because Charlie had spent a bunch of time nailing the window shut to keep vampires out. It's meant to show how strong he was, that he flicked it up with one hand.
#monsterdon
Chris Sarandon Kubrick-stare walking at me... I'm scaraoused!
The 80s, mom casually offering a Valium to her teen son #monsterdon
vampires are super powerful unless you have a piece of wood, no matter how small, that is at least a little bit pointy
Lady don't tell your son about your nightmare where you were naked JUST DON'T #Monsterdon
offering prescription drugs to a teenager. #FrightNight1985 #Monsterdon
Valium just being handed out, 80's
#monsterdon
the '80s were indeed a helluva drug
"Do you want a valium?"
Yeah, that's an '80s mom. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Moms handing out low-grade psychoactives. Want a valium? Honey, we all want valium for this.
The guy who is maybe a vampire goes into Charlie's room at night, yeets him into the closet, grabs him in a throat hold and then threatens to kill him unless he forgets about him, and threatens to kill his mom if he makes too much noise. Charlie pulls out a cross and points it at him, but it doesn't work.
The vampire guy tries to throw him out the window, but then charlie stabs his hand with a nail, causing him to turn into a monstrous looking vampire guy with long fingernails.
so the important thing to know is to always give a vampire wood
a #2 pencil!
my greatest weakness!!! nooooo
#monsterdon
I also like the Vampire Rule that crucifixes only work if you were big on that thing while alive.
Weak vs No. 2 graphite, noted. #Monsterdon
Not quite as good as a pencil to the eye Baba Yaga style, but it seems to be effective.
All these Christians trying to use crosses on Jewish vampires smh
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985
call me a pencil-necked geek will you? WILL YOU?!
lololol, that's not portentious at all.
_Dandrige picks Charley up by the throat and throws him around the room_
*extremely Darth Vader voice* If this is a consular ship, where is the ambassador??
don't snitch on your neighbors is the lesson here
"wouldn't want to wake your mom up" he says after whistling as he went into the room. and then flinging him across the bedroom, breaking the closet door.
Don't worry. She's a heavy sleeper.
Oh no, an atheist vampire #monsterdon
see if I found out my neighbor was a vampire I wouldve just left them alone
none of my business
@cd0 This is a good point, it's been a whole half hour without any on-screen deaths
Oh no! The Pachinko machine! The real tragedy.
