It's such a myth that vampires are cool.

#Monsterdon

Charlie's gonna die via oxygen starvation, let's watch!

#monsterdon

Why is it that none of the methods of killing supernatural beings, you know, don't also 100% kill mortal beings?

Like how about just chucking garlic at someone and they shrivel up and die?

#Monsterdon

This kid is pretty quick with the home decorating.
#Monsterdon

The fuck are the candles for?? #Monsterdon

"WE HAVE CHAPEL AT HOME!"

#monsterdon

I'm not sure what the candles are supposed to accomplish? Vibes?

#Monsterdon #FrightNight

Charley, that KILLS people!!
#Monsterdon

yeah sure spend 6 hours lighting candles for some reason and leave yourself only one hour to whittle your stake #monsterdon

also I swear Vincent's voice is familiar #monsterdon

Oopsie, Mom's going to be out of the house tomorrow night.

#Monsterdon

Wow, Charlie's taken some extreme measures about this vampire business

he's gone and converted to catholicism

#Monsterdon

honestly, Vincent telling Charlie to fuck off is very satisfying.

#monsterdon

Mr Vincent doing the town a favor as far as I'm concerned

#monsterdon

yo, he finally getting the mood right with the candles to make out with his gf
#monsterdon

How. How does the main character have an annoying voice but somehow Evil sounds like him but even more annoying?
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Time for the Giles #monsterdon

The director didn't tell anyone at the time of filming. then Billy's actor had an OHHHH moment when he saw the final film and realized why he filmed the shot kneeling.
It was very intentional to read like he was bout to give Jerry a BJ
#monsterdon

That's a fire hazard, just sayin' #monsterdon

Only a vampire could zoom the camera like that!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Dude just make yourself some stakes or a wood sword or something

#Monsterdon

Hey don't knock hacking up young virgins. #Monsterdon

I like Mr. Vincent's car

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

@jonny THANK YOU it was driving me crazy #monsterdon

Oh, and I bet you don't believe Santa is real either??
#Monsterdon

Oh Roddy is out of work. Well that explains where the rest of the movie goes. Desperate out of work actor is so down on his luck he becomes a real vampire hunter. You could cut out almost half an hour of this movie to get to the good part.
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

This poor grifter.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Given the vampire's reaction to the No.2 pencil, just make him take the SATs. That'll get him.
#Monsterdon #FrightNight

He goes to all this trouble to make sure he shuts a window. Apparently that's the window that does not face the vampire's house. The window that faces the vampire's house is wide open.
#monsterdon

does this guy have like a bunch of loose wool stuffed under his messenger bag strap #monsterdon

Hey! There's nothing wrong with demented madmen hacking up virgins while wearing a hockey mask!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

I believe in Vampires

🎶 I BELIEVE THEY CAN FLY 🎶

#monsterdon

Wait, is Mr. Vincent who I think he is??

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon
Okay. A bit of Friday the 13th shade there...

"Beware the Hand of Man, for he is a cruel ape..."

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Peter Vincent, Vampire Killer: "Now, Watch me do it!"

eeeeehhhh think I'll pass

Jesus what I wouldn't give for my mother to offer me a Valium.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Dial M for #Monsterdon !

Ha there were a lot of demented madmen running around in ski masks chopping up young virgins.

#Monsterdon

Vampires in ski masks running around hacking up virgins, you say 😮

#Monsterdon

bahahahah demented, ski-masks. fantastic.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Fun Fact : A stake through the heart will also kill non-vampires.

#Monsterdon 🧛🦇 🧛‍♂️🦇 🧛‍♀️ 🦇😱

awww good old roddy mcdowell

@Taweret I mean, as long as the blood sucking is consensual, who am I to judge.

#Monsterdon

This is why we need to keep Svengoolie on the air. That way there is always someone to handle this sort of thing for us. #Monsterdon

Only a vampire could WOOSH like that!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

I prefer bloody tears, myself #monsterdon

[desaturated footage of neighbor vampire killing people, fucking your mom, and bullying you about it]

Narrator: Has this ever happened to you?

You: There's got to be a better way!

Peter Vincent: There IS!

#Monsterdon

Why is he hiding the truth all of a sudden? I didn't hear him agree to keep anything secret.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon
Kid, don't believe everything you hear on TV.

That was such an anticlimactic vampire stabbing...
#Monsterdon

oh man I bet this ascot-wearing actor can help me with my hot queer vampire problem

#monsterdon

I didn't recognize McDowell at first
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🧛🦇 🧛‍♂️🦇 🧛‍♀️ 🦇😱

vampire has to call on a land line phone?

the great vampire killer should probably not have a tv show about being a vampire killer because then vampires will know you're the great vampire killer #monsterdon

THOSE TEETH THO

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

With all the vampire shows he watches, why did he have to go for advice? #monsterdon

Love that you can see the interlacing on the TV screen.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight

Ah the good old #2 pencil!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Yeah you could have finished it 50 times already. #Monsterdon

this is, like, all vampire media. there's a scene in true blood where anna paquin mercs a vampire with a Chinese takeout chopstick

#monsterdon

Checkov's pointy fence post through a picture. #monsterdon

Sorry, I was off -- more like $50!

pages 86-87!

#monsterdon

the three little teen pigs better watch out

#Monsterdon

This movie has actually pretty good vampire lore #monsterdon

What kind of earplugs is his mom using?

Oh, there she is.

#Monsterdon

aw, not the bondo-mobile!

#monsterdon

*cue Five Nights at Freddy's intro call*
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I wonder if all the movie directors are trying to establish some connection between manicure and civilized societies trough history

It’s been 25 minutes, and only one person liked my pun.

https://don.monster/@ramsey/115324544534885451

#Monsterdon

Ew! Dude... #monsterdon You should get that looked at...

Technically that's a bat on a string.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

As a mother of former teenagers I'm totally insulted that this movie is portraying us as this horribly clueless

Insulted, I tell you

#Monsterdon #FrightNight

it's the 80s, we throw valium at our children like it's unwrapped candy on halloween

#monsterdon

EVERY time those bats start up when Charley turns on the TV I think Scooby Doo is about to start.

EVERY TIME. I watch this movie at least ten times a year. I've seen it a LOT.

#Monsterdon

That's a lot of Scooby Doo confederacy is all I'm saying.

"Do you want a Valium?"

- the most 80s Mom line ever to appear in a movie.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Ahh, yes, the 80s, where valium flowed freely from the tap.

#Monsterdon

Stabbing fixes many things.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Thats right I forgot that when you penetrate a vampire they spin around in a circle.

#Monsterdon

"Do you want a Valium" Probably the most 80's thing that could possibly be said in an 80's movie. #Monsterdon #FrightNight

#Monsterdon
Vampires are weak against wood.
And did she just offer her son Valium?

Mom of the year offering Valium to a minor #monsterdon

why would you clean the scene up, Charlie? THAT'S THE EVIDENCE

#monsterdon

@ramsey Because he nailed it shut and badly enough that the vampire just ripped it open.

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

wtff mums give out valium in USA???
#Monsterdon

"Do you want a Valium?"

Tell me it's the 80s without telling me it's the 80s.

#monsterdon

Super-wind breath as a vampire power, huh

#Monsterdon

"...what about your nightmare. Do you want a valium?"
"Ummmmm .... sure?"

#Monsterdon #FrightNight

do you want a valium. mom is amazing, what a 1980s movie this is.

#monsterdon

Mom, can I have a valium?

#monsterdon

Casually offering Valium to her teenage son, lovely
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985 Valium - the tic tacs of the 80s suburban mom.

some neck bruising expected after than no?

#Monsterdon #frightnight1985

David Boreanez?! #monsterdon

"Do you want a valium? Some codine? Oh wait, I have some leftover cocaine."

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Why were there nails sticking out the bottom of window pane?

#Monsterdon

Is this the least likable teen protagonist or what? #Monsterdon

YAY Face makeup !
#Monsterdon

those contacts cut up his eyes no end. I am betting they are still made of glass at this point
#Monsterdon

Moms: My one weakness!
