make Charlie into a smoothie
too soon???
#Monsterdon

Maybe instead of Roddy McDowall, Charley should try Cary Elwes #FrightNight1985 #Monsterdon

vamp gonna fuck with Charlie every night by just moving his shit around slightly
#monsterdon

@miru IMO Jerry Dandridge didn't drain Charlie's mom b/c he saw she was wearing a sleeping mask and it cracked him up so he let her live. #Monsterdon #frightnight1985

"he's right behind me, isn't he?"

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

This 80s synthesizer music and Chris Sarandon’s sexy vampire looks, this shaped an entire generation #monsterdon

Vampire whistling "Strangers in the Night" as he stalks around Charley's house. #Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

I don't remember pants being this tight in the 80's

#Monsterdon #FrightNight

@Lazarou lolwat that's a new one on me

#Monsterdon

coming out of the closet now

#Monsterdon #frightnight1985

Strangers in the night.....
Exchanging fluids

#monsterdon #frightnight

I LOVE a good mirror shot though. *chef kiss*
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Vampire in the bedroom is totally 80s synth porn music.

#monsterdon

he should be eating garlic when charlie walks in

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

hey, no need to break the house, mr sarandon.

also, the whistle was so perfect.

#monsterdon

OMG! I just realized where I’ve seen the vampire before!

He’s Prince Humperdinck from The Princess Bride!

#Monsterdon

The movie's primary motif reminds me of another movie, but I can't place it. THEY LIVE, maybe?

#Monsterdon

the jewel encrusting on the crucifix makes it go faster #monsterdon

I wasn't sure I'd ever seen this movie, outside of some clips, and yeah clearly I haven't seen this movie. I think I would have remembered not liking the main character.
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

@wohali@timeloop.cafe Because they didn't have quite enough budget for the foley artists, I guess?

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Only a vampire could make such a suggestive threat!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Hey, that cocktail held by visiting "Jerry" was a Bloody Mary!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

this better be mice iceskating
#Monsterdon

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THE CROSS AS A LAPEL PIN, CHARLIE

GO HANDS-FREE!

#monsterdon

Do I still think a man in suspenders is super hot because of Marty McFly? Yes, obviously

#Monsterdon

Don't worry, if you run into him just ask him his favorite strategies for starting a war between Florin and Guilder, he'll talk all night

#Monsterdon #FrightNight

Much of the film's $9.5 million budget was spent on special effects (it was the first vampire film to spend $1 million on special effects).

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTrivia #FrightNight1985

Show me some cute bats already

#Monsterdon

@yatsu It is kind of more entertaining than a lot of #Monsterdon movies if not actually good.

Imagine the business opportunities for Vampiric roof repair. No need for ladders! Will complete work while you sleep!

Payable in multiple forms!

......wait, maybe not that last one.

#monsterdon #frightnight

aw heck, raccoons! #monsterdon

hatrack stairwells went out of fashion about the same time as shoulder pads

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Maybe this party jewlery will be so tacky, it will make him leave!
#Monsterdon

@yatsu Fuck no! We wore Izods and turned the collars up.

#Monsterdon

"We don't talk about Charlie"

#monsterdon

Only a vampire could cross his legs at the ankle like that!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

We all know vampires can't break glass. Let's nail down the window.

#monsterdon

Yeah, comedy like this just gives me contact embarrassment. #Monsterdon

@jonny Wouldn't it be funny if the vampire was actually his father IRL or something?

#Monsterdon

Base riff!
#Monsterdon

Jerry Dandridge is the epitome of 80s cool.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

interview with a vampire.

a sexy, gangly-ass vampire.

#monsterdon

Very white town and a Black lieutenant in the 1980s. Interesting. #monsterdon

That sure didn't take long...

#Monsterdon

Wait, they said you can't invite him IN, they didn't say anything about inviting him OVER! I think we found our loophole!
#Monsterdon

@flowerpot Ed's got his reasons. Charlie dropped his friend Eddie when other kids started calling him Evil Ed and he started calling him that too, and he started dating a girl (Amy) instead of watching Fright Night with him. #Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

this movie is very self aware of vampire mythology and loves to use it #FrightNight1985 #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Yeah I know the Mom was going to invite him in.

Also... no finger extensions.

I bet he spends that eight bucks on glue!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Like Ray Parker Jr said: “Bustin’ makes me feel good”

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

- You, evil creature, what are you going to do
- Your mom

Well, he's been invited in. There's your problem.

#monsterdon #frightnight

Of COURSE he's drinking a Bloody Mary. #Monsterdon #FrightNight

So this vampire can eat / drink? #monsterdon

For a drink of what

FOR A DRINK OF WHAT?!

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Evil? Evil and the main character have annoying voice. I wanna trip both of them. Is it wrong to be rooting for the vampire? He's so charming.
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

@moira I'm constantly amused at how polarizing characters in these movies are.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Yeah, Prince Humperdink is quite a guy. #Monsterdon

With a little more genre sense Charlie could have known he was going to meet the vampire

#Monsterdon

Charley: "Oh no, he's hot"

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Vampire drinking a bloody Mary, love it.

#Monsterdon #frightnight1985

I'm sure Mr Giles in the school library would have told him that information for free.

#Monsterdon

Welp, so much for not inviting him in...😂
#Monsterdon

Sarandon gets all the fuck music.

#Monsterdon

He's watched all those Fright Night Tv shows and didn't pick up on basic vampire lore? #Monsterdon

did high schoolers wear button downs in the 80s? did they tuck them in??? this kid is the real monster here.

#monsterdon

@jonny back when everyone smoked cigarettes around you from birth on

#monsterdon

Wow Charlie, good thing a neighborhood expert lives so close

#Monsterdon #FrightNight

am i really the only person who likes bizarre gremlin friend?

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

The cop probably only believed the kid's initial tip because he looks about 30.

#Monsterdon

A vampire can't enter your house without getting permission from the rightful owner first.

Really? He actually think that means he's safe? Really? He's that stupid???

#Monsterdon

DAMMIT MOM! #Monsterdon #FrightNight

Evil's channelling his inner Jack Palance.

#Monsterdon #FrightNight

Oh I also have a next door neighbor who rhymes with sandwich.

#Monsterdon

Is his "evil" buddy ever not high? Maybe you should find someone else to help you Charlie #Monsterdon

Dear god Mother your horniness is gonna get us all fucking KILLED!

#Monsterdon

He is like the next door psychopath kid in Toy Story #monsterdon #frightnight1985

what is that box thing on Evil Ed's desk? that's not an aquarium, is it?

#monsterdon

Why does Evil have a random gold cross hanging out on his shelf?

#Monsterdon

This decade did have some outstanding digital LCD watches. #Monsterdon

The Renfield of this movie reminds me of the goofy best friend of an old romcom.
#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

@pineheap It's a nice touch in the sequel that the car is finished.

And white. I would have gone for the red, but it looks good! #Monsterdon

Is that a white light hologram? It doesn't render very well on camera does it

#monsterdon

Evil Ed is unhinged. I wouldn't trust anything he says.

#Monsterdon

I hope my human servants are just as sassy as this dude!

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

I hope Evil Ed gets killed first

#Monsterdon

@pineheap Cars looking this kind of bad because they're being patched together by amateurs with bondo was definitely a thing

#monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Tsk, tsk! Not listening to the youth is bad form. #monsterdon

8 whole dollars #monsterdon

"Don't call me Evil anymore! Call me ... Vicious."

#Monsterdon

Is Ed just an example of bad acting, or is he high as a kite?

#Monsterdon #FrightNight1985

Eight bucks is a reasonable price.

#Monsterdon

Evil Ed really has some mood swings, doesn’t he?

#Monsterdon

I guess that's an interesting turn of events. The black police officer doesn't believe the white kid from the suburbs.
#monsterdon

People pay ridiculous amounts of money for vintage Casios these days. Lord knows why.

#monsterdon #frightnight

The women in his life don't believe him! Of course he'll turn out to be right because it's that kind of movie. #monsterdon

shit run Charlie the rip off Jaws plod music has started. Can't you hear the bass???
#Monsterdon

4:23? Oh NO!!!

#monsterdon

Evil's vampire hologram steals this scene

#Monsterdon

...I don't get it, did he just realize he's late for Trig? #Monsterdon
