SOMEONE HAD TO HAVE DIED FOR THIS MOVIE. #monsterdon #godmonster

this is one of the longest post-movie lobby scrums i've ever seen here

#monsterdon #GodmonsterOfIndianFlats

I can't say that was the worst movie I've seen for Monsterdon. But man there's alot wrong with that stupid sheep monster flick. So it is near the bottom. However it tried some things. Mostly failed to make sense, but it tried and we can't say that for every monster movie.
#Monsterdon #Godmonster

@davesdogmaggie and, according to W, someone actually put up $135,000 to have it produced #Monsterdon

@catzilla depicting the realities of antiblack violence in america...is not something this 1973 monster movie was ever going to be equipped to tackle, I think. #monsterdon

Well, in the words of Dr. Clemens, "Guess we all have to graze if we want to survive." Time for dinner, #Monsterdon; catch you later.

@howler0502 Godmonster made my joints feel young again #Monsterdon

@coprolite9000 i'd be serly too if i had this much loaded up on my plate

#monsterdon #GodmonsterOfIndianFlats

@apLundell @Taweret

oh...yeah... ok...so...tonight's #Monsterdon was REALLY about 2 real estate *agents* who were *trying* to screw each other over

Or something I dunno

At least there was an awesome Mutant Sheep.

There should've been more Mutant Sheep. Maybe they were planning for that in a sequel. Shoulda skipped straight to that story TBH.

@lytta She sacrificed so much of her potential just to give us a moment of Bechdel #monsterdon

remember when the lead actor had a booze induced biblical vision about the birth of the godmonster #monsterdon

well

guess i picked the wrong week to run out of brain bleach

#monsterdon #GodmonsterOfIndianFlats

i scratched my head bloody, but i got something positive: the strange blue tones in the fake dawn/night scenes where actually quite good looking #Monsterdon

I have no words, none of it made any sense
#monsterdon

You guys, @starkraving666 is literally cry laughing and can't stop. BRB, getting the tranquilizer darts. #monsterdon #godmonster

@catzilla I wouldn't count on any of this being explainable

#Monsterdon

Wait why is the truck the Godmonster is in filled with so much gas?
MONSTER NO!
#Monsterdon #Godmonster

@lytta It was like a canine whoopie cushion #monsterdon

AND WHAT HAPPENED TO ELBOW JOHNSON????

#Monsterdon

@rwg

Giant knees are so comforting

#GodMonsterOfIndianFlats
#Monsterdon

Time will judge.

Thank you @Taweret for such an exquisite selection tonight!

#Monsterdon

And now an out door old west announcement and animal unveiling that feels like a prequel to Don't Look Up.
#Monsterdon #Godmonster

@himbovoorhees @rwg I would be in for that

#Monsterdon

It was a good palate cleanser from last week's #monsterdon film, whatever that was

#Monsterdon I was not expecting that ending... WOW. 😳

I bet if I could get back the audio gaps from that one scene, this whole movie would make sense. #monsterdon #godmonster

@peltast agreed

#Monsterdon

Scrolling back over the comments and I actually forgot about the canine funeral in the middle of this. The whole film is just slipping from my mind.

#Monsterdon

@SarraceniaWilds I think that's to be expected whenever you watch a truly top- (or is it bottom-?) tier terrible movie

#Monsterdon

After watching Godmonster of Indian Flats, I think I need to watch Manos: Hand of Fate to make myself believe in goodness again

#monsterdon

At least none of us had to try to understand this enigma alone #monsterdon

@annathepiper "Oh god ya'll the DVD has extras"

RGF: "Of course it does. They have a TON of 'splanin to do."

#monsterdon #TheGodmonsterOfIndianFlats

You ever start reading a post during #Monsterdon that is really head and shoulders above the rest and think “can’t wait to see where this is going” only to realize it’s not a #Monsterdon post at all?

This plot is like someone saw a half an hour of Blazing Saddles while drunk at a double feature with Giant Gila monster or something. VERY DRUNK.
#Monsterdon #Godmonster

The shot cutting from cream pie in the face to shaving with shaving cream was the kind of cinematic genius this film will be remembered for!

#Monsterdon #GodmonsterOfIndianFlats

Um

Ow

My brain

What even in the world...

I don't even have words for what happened these last 10 minutes (nor really the 80 minutes before that)

This is the first #Monsterdon movie that I would genuinely put on the same level of nonsensical gibberish as something like Turkish Star Wars or Manos. Well done @Taweret and community, we got there 👏

#Monsterdon

this movie just made me feel tired. #Monsterdon

This movie is the kind of transfinite postmodern surreality experience that @starkraving666 is going to be cackling about for DAYS. #monsterdon #godmonster

@Louisa

This is perfect

#monsterdon

@Canageek Or some basic first aid training he'd picked up #monsterdon

I kept joking about the lynching not actually being racially-motivated, but then at the end of the movie all the land gets sold anyway, so it WAS just racism I guess??

Like I genuinely thought that was in interesting choice to deliberately invoke those aesthetics in a dispute over land but I guess that's not what the movie was doing

#Monsterdon

Whut? What? Teh hell? Damn it whitey! You just wanted a bigger cut?
#Monsterdon #Godmonster

Time once again to share "The Littlest Godmonster" edit from ashens now that everyone has context https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TM0LiVGf4f0
#monsterdon

The Godmonster's only crime was being born in a backwater town of Nazi cowboys. How many Americans today are the Godmonster?

#monsterdon

Question for #Monsterdon while you all are here: have you all seen the movie where fish are given HGH and become the monster of the film? It feels like something you'd all enjoy, and no, I don't know what it is called.

@Canageek Oh I thought Mariposa just sprained her ankle or something #monsterdon

@Canageek It felt like it was trying to give me an aneurysm. #monsterdon #godmonster

My question is… what? #monsterdon

Part of me wants to like actually try to dive into what the movie was trying to say with its land-rights plot and old timey racist violence aesthetics and shit but I'm gonna be honest I couldn't even understaand what was being said half the time and the half I could understand made no sense

#Monsterdon

this is the part where @coriander blocks me and never speaks to me again for tricking them into watching this movie #monsterdon

Also the half-hearted attempt at a romance subplot got lost under the desk pretty early on #monsterdon

Your assignment is 500 words on the tragedy of this film. #Monsterdon

@unlofl @Taweret I can't process this right now because it makes too much sense and my brain has forgotten how to handle it

#Monsterdon

Having the big PR event at the town dump now makes more sense.

#Monsterdon

@peter_mcmahan "This is why I've got close friends / Fuckin' worth it baby"

#monsterdon #GodmonsterOfIndianFlats

wait, what? #monsterdon

I will give it one thing: It felt like that movie was TRYING to say things.

I am unclear as to what it was trying to say, but it sure was trying

#Monsterdon

yeah Id put Godmonster of Indian Flats on the same shelf as Attack of the Crab Monsters #Monsterdon

The sheep monster really wasn’t that dangerous. Instead of the weird dangly, mismatched front legs I would have looked some CLAWS. #Monsterdon

Zooming/panning from the mayor to the two sheep was a pretty cool shot #Monsterdon #GodMonsterOfIndianFlats

I say again, wat

#Monsterdon

I'm going to supermix #godmonster and #zardoz, just randomly trickshuffle scenes together at every jump cut.

It will be a miracle of cinema. #monsterdon #godmonster

I heard it’s scheduled for a 2026 reboot #Monsterdon

I'm not 100% sure I exactly followed the events of the final moments of that movie.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon lol wat?

Who the fuck was even shooting at whom in the final scene? Didn't one of the off-brand KKK shoot their own leader? Why? #Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe agreed

#monsterdon #GodmonsterOfIndianFlats

Well that's just sad.
Oh he wanted cupcakes?
Fuck you Chevron! This is a pro Esso Kaiju instance.
#Monsterdon #Godmonster

I'm not going to tell you all what to do, but I personally am going to be leery of any #monsterdon candidate that is described as a "creative horror film" in the future

That movie was glorious and I'm recommending it to all my friends.

#Monsterdon

Yeah, I'm calling it. That's the worst movie we've ever seen. That was worse than From Hell It Came. It was worse than Octaman. It was worse than Attack of the Crab Monsters.

This was our Manos. Wow. #Monsterdon

That made Octaman look like Citizen Freaking Kane! Still though, we made it through. Thanks @Taweret for hosting! #monsterdon #TheGodmonsterOfIndianFlats

That was incredible thanks friends #monsterdon #thegodmonsterofindianflats

Well, that mess of an ending left me speechless for a bit!

Foo, they didn't even give the godmonster a credit.

#Monsterdon

Godmonster of Indian Flats - should be the subject of literary criticism in the same vein as Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. Absolutely *bonkers*.

#monsterdon

oh its over. well. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Well, that was technically a movie- so who's been feeding/watering young Townes Van Zandt's sheep flock this whole time?

I bet @Taweret would like it if we started dressing up our Butt Frogs in kaiju costumes #Monsterdon

Speaking of locations ... they did a "Then and Now" with this movie.

https://youtu.be/m2guOUJ-27U?si=KOSjW7ry01mTwJ3X

#Monsterdon #GodmonsterOfIndianFlats

wat

I genuinely did not expect this to get even weirder

#Monsterdon

Not unlike Once Upon A Time In America, the audience is left wondering “was it all an opium dream”?

#Monsterdon

Big "The Chooper" vibes on rewatch #monsterdon

Sound and editing: A+
Acting: solid B
Coherence: C-

#Monsterdon

Martial law because of Barnstable? NOT THE SHEEP MONSTER!?
Oh hey more racism. Damn it movie.
#Monsterdon #Godmonster

i'm going to bed, thanks @Taweret as always for hosting! #Monsterdon 🐑

@starkraving666 is out of breath with laughter. This is the kind of laughter that could kill someone. WITH MY LAST BREATH I BLAME GODMONSTER #monsterdon #godmonster

wait,why are they doing this at the dump?

#monsterdon

The piano at the end, followed by the cinematic strings, is perfection. So glad I tuned in for that total train wreck of a movie.

#monsterdon

Trauma shared is trauma healed. Maybe the real GodMonster was the friends we made along the way. #Monsterdon

So ends another #Monsterdon. As always, thanks to @Taweret, the sheep, the lurkers, and the posters. And remember, Monsterdoners: We don't tolerate anarchy.

The godmonster died for our sins, apparently

#monsterdon

This town's mob mentality makes Springfield look like the birthplace of democratic deliberation #monsterdon

welp, that certainly was a movie, in that it was a sequence of events that someone put to film. #monsterdon

The moral of the story is that LSD was really popular back then #monsterdon

not to repeat myself but

what the actual fuck actually happened

#monsterdon #GodmonsterOfIndianFlats

Great and confusing night, y'all, see you for the next #Monsterdon!

thanks all for a nigh-unclassifiable #monsterdon and to @Taweret for hosting! time will judge us all!

Well, that was truly an experience #monsterdon

So is this movie white supremacist? Christian hippy? Antiracist?

#monsterdon

a film that made me ask, what the ever loving shit did i just watch

really all one can ask from #Monsterdon
