@CactuarJoe "The gargoyles bury their dead, ergo they have culture and social ties, so maybe we could try communicating with them?

No, too complicated, better just shoot them."

#Monsterdon

Is she going to get kidnapped by one of them there gar-things?

#monsterdon

Wow she's a good screamer

#monsterdon

Either we have a gargoyle problem or those raccoons are getting really bold. #monsterdon

Yes let's walk at night thru a small Western town in the middle of nowhere #monsterdon

#TypoOfTheDay garygoyles

#Monsterdon

you can kill these things

#monsterdon

"It's called a gargoyle. My father's a scientist, it's called a gargoyle"

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Girl, you need more friends.

the motel owner is the kind of lady who complains about other people bringing drama into her life #monsterdon

Thirsty hotel manager gear-shifted into jaded, world-weary hotel manager very quickly. Extreme Miss Hannigan vibes, minus the orphans. #monsterdon

Landlady reminds me of Gloria from Ed Wood's "The Sinister Urge" #Monsterdon

Okay, between the references to indigenous peoples and now "they want the bones of their people back" I'm starting to think the underlying themes of this movie may end up being SLIGHTLY racist. #Monsterdon

Given the amount every minor character in this movie drinks, I think they just paid the actors in booze

#Monsterdon

I've known too many women like that Motel Owner....

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon
Like many creatures, gargoyles are threatened mostly by automobiles. Please drive carefully.

The existence of gargoyles suggests the existence of garguys. #Monsterdon

You're investigating a dead inhuman body, put a damn shirt on!!

#Monsterdon

Keep the Professor away from the pet sematary #monsterdon

re: the weird slow motion running, that's just the limit of the production team's technical capability to make the gargoyles look weird

#monsterdon

PANTY RAID #monsterdon

Oh no! - they got the bone head!

#monsterdon

@brooke you vs the one she told you not to worry about

#monsterdon

...Mister director, these suits do not look any better in slow-mo. #Monsterdon

like in Twin Peaks, where the dude shows up behind her sofa. i think the gargoyle did it. #monsterdon

Maybe he's just here to borrow a cup of terror. #monsterdon

We did not need a shirtless scene with this guy. #monsterdon

doc, ya heard of 'headphones'?

#monsterdon

Maybe it's just the motel's complimentary stalker. #monsterdon

Gonna play it again, Dad? Despite your daughter's specific, multiple requests THAT YOU STOP

#monsterdon #gargoyles72

#Monsterdon “Why did you let those guys go to jail?”

Better them than us, seems to be the reason.

The professor absolutely deserves to be eaten by a gargoyle but probably won't be.

#Monsterdon

I think the cops are just checking out all of their asses.

#Monsterdon

And now we see the Law of Conservation of Things Happening, since the movie had some Things Happen fairly early on, now we are in for lots of Stuff Not Happening

#Monsterdon

The Cactus Motel, where every room is full of pricks.

#Monsterdon #Gargoyles

I can't tell if they're in Texas or Mexico

I guess they're in Texico

#monsterdon

@Lazarou all you have to do is tell him it’s a Democrat. #Monsterdon

oh we found a heterosexual love interest for the daughter? #monsterdon

if this were a modern movie, a cop would be the main character

#monsterdon

Not a thought about the old man that they left to the fire #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Presumed guilty by proximity. Also typical.

“What are the charges?”
“You boys just quiet down.”

@allanb I could have sworn they said they were in Mexico. I guess the part that has only Americans? #Monsterdon

Criminy! Scott Glenn is a baby and still looks at least 40. #monsterdon

Okay this is an awful lot of dialogue for a movie quickly approaching the halfway mark.

I hope we get back to the gargoyles soon

#Monsterdon

that souvenir skull is more than 600 years old? sure old man.

#monsterdon

@apLundell this movie is 45 minutes of dirt bike chase and 20 minutes of gargoyles

#monsterdon

Ah, so the production team knew a couple of guys who could ride motorcycles and they decided to make that a whole scene, classic

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon JUst how long does a car chase with nameless characters have to be?

Okay, adding a chase sequence fits the “80% driving sequences” theme, but I still can’t say I’m on board with the choice. #monsterdon

this is as inexplicable and pointless as the mod biker gang in the book of boba fett

#monsterdon #gargoyles1972

Movie. Don't try to pivot to motorbikes now. You're barely a 2 on the Death Race scale, let alone a 2000!

#monsterdon #Gargoyles1972

Which one's Smokey?

#Monsterdon #Gargoyles

WILD DIRTBIKERS they're invasive

#monsterdon

Grayson Hall's "Miss Kerler", the motel manager:
Scene 1 with drink ✅

#Monsterdon 🦖 #Gargoyles1972

Oh great, Judd and Bob Clampett. We're in great hands here, law enforcement-wise. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon “The skull, that’s a fact.” An arty fact, as it were.

Lol oh nice, the room has its own en suite disgusting drippy boiler and sooty wall hole

#Monsterdon

@SnoopJ gotta hand it to her, she shifted gears quickly

#monsterdon

The motel lady is uh... interesting #Monsterdon

a good soundtrack moment completely ruins movies for me because i ahve to play it like 10 times and then go and find other music that sounds like it and then i am just listening to music with the movie on mute as i am doing now #monsterdon

You didn't "have" a nightmare, you are living one!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon “We have a lot of doozies on this road.” Including the motel owner.

phew, good thing there are vacancies

next week would have been a problem, what with the Gargoyle Festival

#monsterdon

We get a lot of doozies on our road, too.

#Monsterdon

They are going to get their money's worth from that one scream

#Monsterdon

Don't worry, Dad, the walls are thin. You'll hear me scream for help. #monsterdon

"was anybody killed?"

...nobody worth mentioning i guess

#monsterdon

"Was anybody killed?"
"No, no."

Why are you coming up that guy's death?!

#Monsterdon

One room, two beds, and a whole lot of bad decisions. #monsterdon

you wouldn't happen to be one , would you

#monsterdon

Oh it is the famous Cactus Motel.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon "CACTUS MOTEL"

Bet they're cool with people staying there too though as long as they pay

(what do cactuses use for currency? Cactus bucks?)

Gargoyle upon catching the car #monsterdon

Gas station mechanics don't ask questions. That's the Gas Station Code.

#monsterdon

Watch where you sit at the Cactus Motel... #Monsterdon #Gargoyles

maybe they should stop saying (and playing back) the gargoyle-summoning ritual #monsterdon

@gnomon They don't make em like they used to. Just imagine what bad shape a cybertruck would be in

#Monsterdon

Looks just like the family truckster from Vacation. #monsterdon

I think Jennifer Salt was cast in this for her shrieking abilities #monsterdon

Convenient the car has a gargoyle rack on the roof

#monsterdon
#Gargoyles

okay 20 minutes in and we got a monster attack, not bad

#monsterdon

Totally real. car. In motion.

#monsterdon #Gargoyles1972

This is like "Lost Highway" if there was a gargoyle.

#Monsterdon

now repeat the ritual on the tape recorder and watch the tape recorder explode into flame too

#monsterdon #gargoyles1972

@SnoopJ classic line. #Monsterdon

yes, drive quickly away from the scene of the crime, not suspicious at all #monsterdon

Little known fact: Demon bones don’t get hot in fire. #Monsterdon

Grunkle Stan was flammable as fuck. #monsterdon #gargoyles72

#monsterdon reee reee reee reee it sounds like the gargoyles just got a little careless while running the weed eater

@Taweret To be fair, it's his designated Safety Skull.

#monsterdon

Wow, the movie got right into it. #monsterdon

Ha Ha! Now I get 100% of the book proceeds!

#monsterdon
#Gargoyles

Shoutout to the prop guy throwing bats at people from off camera. #Monsterdon

WELP rip old Willie #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Noises off! Screaming!!

GET OUT OF THE HOUSE WILLIE

#monsterdon #gargoyles72

remember, in the event of earthquake, the first thing to do is grab the nearest skull

#monsterdon

He's unsavable, his body is 50% alcohol by weight

#Monsterdon

You would have saved him if he didn't demand his picture on the book cover.

#Monsterdon
