If you see a faded sign by the side of the road that says 15 mile to the BEEEEAR ATTACK!! #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

(drops a file folder on the desk)

"Scully, have you heard of the Alien Clone Bear?"

#Monsterdon

"They said they would be down before dusk, but haven't made it yet."

Um, they were setting up a tent. Nobody checked the script for plot continuity.

#monsterdon

i hope the grizzly rips off somebody's leg and slap shots a severed head with it #monsterdon

How has no one made Cocaine ManBearPigShark yet? #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

these shacks are human-proof, not bear-proof

#monsterdon

I do like the trucks fording the river, though.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976 when the bear swipes people it's like a late 90s video game the way it cuts from the full human to the practical effects

"ludicrous gibs!"

i'm enjoying this

#monsterdon Okay say what you want about the forest's ursine inhabitants the bear's demeanor is rather disarming.

🦖#MONSTERDON 🎞️

🐻🩸 TRIVIA BEAR 🐻😱

Many extras in the film, some who are "mauled", are residents of Clayton, GA. Probably still talk about the filming in the one bar in town to this day.

#Grizzly

I like that they gave up on all pretense and envisioned _convertible_ NPS trucks, standard issue.

#monsterdon

Someone was paid to write this dialogue.

Just wanted to point that out.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

#monsterdon Must not...turn around...until it's way too late to do anything but scream!

Ahh, the right for bears to take arms.

Hey, she's right! Park rangers are dissemblers. Just ask Trump! #Monsterdon

"Every face tells a story. Some of those stories end with bears mauling you"

#Monsterdon

Good echo on EEUUUGGGGGHHHH 💯

#Monsterdon

"what story does this face tell ya?"
you're an absolute waste of a cigarette, sir, and the fact that we have to spend time with you in this movie is indicitive of the 1970's obsession with... #TedTalk

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976 "you're a dissembler" you mean a dismembler?

See, this is the 70s TV/movie tone I remember... endlessly playful music, and everybody is friendly and smiling!

#Monsterdon #Grissly1976

that’s what happens when you don’t build to grizzly code #Monsterdon

Better have a driving cigarette there 20th Century buddy

#Monsterdon

Take your top off, June!
#monsterdon

That's a huge iPhone around your neck, lady. #monsterdon

#monsterdon This bear keeps turning people into mannequins.

god the echo on that is so unintentionally funny #monsterdon

OMG I need that scream to echo through the whole film actually.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

The gore is kind of comical, but did you have to murder the lesbians so soon? #monsterdon

Bear 2, people 0

#monsterdon

Grizilla
#monsterdon

That was one of the funniest deaths to ever grace #monsterdon

#monsterdon
#Grizzly

okay this movie might be alright

#Monsterdon

Nice!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon That’s awesome, just tossing syrofoam parts from off-screen? Dude, that's awesome practical fx because it's elegant, you could do it just by throwing! Kickass!

"One day, you're going to break"

#Monsterdon

I did not anticipate flying limbs #Monsterdon

There’s the snortling grizzly cam! #Monsterdon

Do horses usually claw people like that? #monsterdon

There is alsways this thing about old movies and night time scenes. They used a dark filter over the lens to simulate nighttime. #Monsterdon

Wikipedia:

The bear was rented from the Olympic Game Ranch in Sequim, Washington, where he was kept behind an electric fence. The crew was protected from the bear by a piece of green string running through the shooting locations and a ticking kitchen timer. This resembled (to the bear) an electric fence.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I wish the bear would hold the camera steady.

No, not megan. nooo. #monsterdon

HAHAHAHAHHAH. Omg. #monsterdon

Remember folks, skipping out on chores can save your life!

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

That's a lot of snorting and heavy breathing in the bush. I take it Kelly the cop is going to drop by.

#monsterdon

I love how the bear is just grunting the whole time, and no one hears it.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

OH, this bear sound like he has obstructive sleep apnea
#monsterdon

Chief Ranger Kelly is played by Christopher George, who played the reporter in Lucio Fulci’s “City of the Living Dead” (1980) #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

C'mon eat somebody. Eaaaaat them. They're following the "don't show the monster" rule REAL hard. #monsterdon

tbf, 'death by bear' is a horrible way to go.

#Monsterdon

okay look bear, if you're gonna sneak up on people you gotta breathe with your mouth closed at least

#Monsterdon

The bear: "Women laughing! I can't stand that shit" #Monsterdon

Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, Grizzly is getting some salad fixins.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly

the giggling, you see, it attracts the wildlife.

#monsterdon

@blueemu Something something 1970s horny

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

pervert in the bushes?
#Monsterdon

okay ten minutes in and we got a bear POV shot. that's promising

#Monsterdon

how dare that bear feed in their natural habit, the AUDACITY

#Monsterdon

Seems a little early in the movie for a fake-out scare sequence. #monsterdon

This jaunty music is better suited for a different bear.
#monsterdon

The music keeps making me think of Bewitched

#monsterdon

Did you seriously leave a fire burning while away from your campsite? #monsterdon

10 mile walk while cooking food‽ That seems, um, bad?
#monsterdon

I think these two are going to live a long, fruitful life #Monsterdon

Two women alone in the woods together, nothing will happen to them

#Monsterdon

Yay! Firefox still blocks commercials on Tubi #Monsterdon

If one of these women doesn't get transformed into a bee, I will be disappointed

#Monsterdon

@cd0 eh I dunno these people seem way more attractive than who you'd actually find in national parks

#Monsterdon

Ooo a tourist lodge in secret financial trouble?

They'll be sure to act responsibly when the disaster happens.

#monsterdon

So I hate Kelly. Just wanted to be honest about that

#monsterdon

Ah so we finally picke the movie that was just about a normal bear #monsterdon

#monsterdon Heading on in, gotta wait for ads... buububububu.

Is that how national park rangers work? Stalking backpackers en masse? #monsterdon

Cool. It’s the Overlook.

#Monsterdon

I bet it is true that you can't look after all those backpackers so the real villain is budget cuts.

#Monsterdon

@SordidAmok Naw, that era it would have been Ford defunding national park service.

#Monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow there’s a whole bit on the producer commentary track where they talk about how they filmed in Todd-AO because they couldn’t film in a more expensive format, and thought it was a pain in the ass because you had to use special anamorphic lenses even in the (all-film) editing pipeline #monsterdon

Did Trump defund the Nat'l Park Service in 1976 too?

#monsterdon

THAT was a briefing she wouldn't miss for the world?

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

This movie brought to you by Chevy, apparently. #monsterdon

#monsterdon So going by the music, this is where Gene Wilder flew Charlie to at the end of the O.G. Wonka movie...

Neighhhhhhhh
#Monsterdon

Is that a ranger station?

I know real park rangers and they aren't that hot. There is a reason people take a job 100 miles away from the city.
#monsterdon

big Shining vibes with this hotel

#Monsterdon

Lookit all those grubby savage 1970s people! #Monsterdon

The director is basically bragging that he rented not one, but TWO helicopters.

#monsterdon

National Park is my favorite park
#monsterdon

Ah yes, the scenic Entrance National Park

#Monsterdon

Bub Asman!

#monsterdon

This music is giving strong Christmas/Winnie the Pooh vibes.

#Monsterdon

Overly long intro sequences are a lost art. Let's bring those back #Monsterdon

Bub ASSMAN!? Truly an editing god. #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

Wait are we watching an IMAX nature film?

#monsterdon

@Newpa_Hasai #TeamMonster always

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Remember when footage like this was really impressive and not just something anybody could get with a $200 drone?

im sure this was very exciting opening footage in theaters #IMAX

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

MAAAAAVRIIIIICK!!!!! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976 we rent whole helicopter, we use whole helicopter shot

Pretty optimistic music for a scary movie
#monsterdon

"William Asman!"
"...that's pronounced azman"

#Monsterdon #Grizzly

i think i downloaded Grizzly The Musical #Monsterdon
