the wicked witch of the west can't get a break can she

#monsterdon #HorrorExpress

One of the few times these two get to share screen time without any Vampires or Frankensteins to be seen. Life long friends as actors, but so often at odds as characters they play.

1906! Xanadu! Stately home of Charles Foster Kane

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon When the scientists start talking about their specimens, you know this is going nowhere good.

"Charmed to the last!" "Goddamnit Peter, you're Tarkin'ing again." #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Check! First sexist joke!

I don't know if it's on the bingo card, but it should be.

Man. Got the lock without breaking a single pick. Well done. #monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Was this filmed on Super-8? #monsterdon

@yogajedi i heard there may be 2 copies on tubi. maybe the other one is better? #monsterdon

You know its the 1970s when you see the hero's moustache #monsterdon

Ooo, an older woman character, we've got a chance at a Bechdel pass here! #monsterdon

suspicious, but cute. #monsterdon

Nice train. Probably a current (at the time) locomotive #Monsterdon

Bet that hat has a razor's edge

#monsterdon
#HorrorExpress

@bunnyhero I think you're right. Ditching Tubi along with you #monsterdon

WELL WELL, it's Peter Cushing and Angela Lansury. #Monsterdon

I didn't see tonights #Monsterdon bingo card is 1970s cringy Asian representation on there?

peter cushing was always a very old man

#monsterdon

@brooke Darn, now I kinda wish I were watching that movie again

...must...keep...focus...

#Monsterdon

People on the sound department was using every effect they could find on this movie
#Monsterdon

We were looking for the skull. We were always looking for the skull. This was an expedition to find skulls and guess what? Paydirt! We'll be eating good tonight (we eat skulls). #Monsterdon

I haven't seen #HorrorExpress and I have that #Queer #AuDHD obsession with #trains, so I will likely be paying more attention to the flick than I will be to #Monsterdon.

I'm already heavily invested, and most of the movie has been a #train doing train shit.

Ooh, horror sting when they're showing the box all locked up. If no monster punches its way out, I'm going to be heckin' disappointed.

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Seeing some people say that the Tubi version of the movie has bad picture quality.

The archive.org copy is pretty good if any of y'all want to switch over. Be kind to their bandwidth and use the torrent if you have the means

#Monsterdon

pulling a mysterious package out of the frozen wastelands, this is a crew that has never seen The Thing. #monsterdon

This Horror Express has got nothing on the Night Train to Mundo Fine

#monsterdon
#HorrorExpress

that's not how chain gangs work team get it right

#monsterdon #HorrorExpress

One very frozen corpse, which we are not hesitant to linger on in closeup.

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

anatevka, anatevka, I found a frozen corpse in anatevka

#monsterdon

This is *probably* not frost zombies but I do love frost zombies. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Wait, is Miss Jones in Poltergiest later? That voice!

OTZI! #monsterdon

Everything is brown. They were really into earth tones. #Monsterdon

The dude did not have his 10 Essentials for hiking, clearly #monsterdon

#monsterdon

This is a good hat / mustache combo.

if we're out here and he's in there, then-- i just remembered: we're out here!

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

@CactuarJoe A strong start 🤦

#Monsterdon

They do have nice hats, tho. Shoutout to your haberdasher. #Monsterdon

The cossacks dug too greedy. Too deep. #monsterdon #HorrorExpress

#monsterdon

Hmm, the archive.org version has spanish credits. Odd. #monsterdon

i think his moustache did it. #monsterdon

I do love the hat
#monsterdon

Our stars: Christopher Lee and Ötzi!
#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

this guitar with the pedal on is VERY out of place lmao

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

The video quality is pretty abysmal. #Monsterdon

This is some high-quality foreshadowing. #monsterdon

Is that a pointy wizard hat? Please tell me that's a pointy wizard hat.

#Monsterdon

Welcome to the Night Country!

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

from the sound of his voice, the blame lies with Meier Link, but it's alright, if you just let him get to the castle, Carmilla will take care of it for you. #monsterdon

@moira lol, I am feeling more ambiguous having watched that

#Monsterdon

Oooh, the Geological Society! I like my rocks with stodgy self-importance.

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Man in pointy hat creeping through a cave!

"I have no memory of this place." 🤔

#Monsterdon

"Welp, expedition's over. Everybody's dead. My fault. Sorry." #Monsterdon

So many ads! Someday the movie will start

#Monsterdon

Horror Express 999
(if i wasnt too lazy i'd photoshop Christopher Lee's face on Maetel)

#Monsterdon

It has a classic narrative frame.

#monsterdon

"I never thought the letters sent in really happened but last week in the laundry room..." #monsterdon #HorrorExpress

wait it ended in disaster i thought it ended in siberia

#monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Based on the Roku search results graphic this is going to deliver #monsterdon

#Monsterdon We never saw Freddie Mercury in a fur hat and that's sad.

#monsterdon ah geez luis pena you could have at least focused when your name was on screen

"There's a tale of a monster in these woods..." #Monsterdon

@bunnyhero I agree. Let us know where you land #monsterdon

Very long opening sequence

#monsterdon

OMG the Christopher Lee 70s 'tache

#monsterdon

"It's a gothic astro horror that takes place on a siberian train in early Russia. What should we use for the font"
"Oh.. I dunno... it's the 70's Futura that bastard." #monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Report to the royal geological society, and this isn't Journey to the Center of the Earth.

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

#Monsterdon Scarecrow! What's happening?

#monsterdon

Horror Express. All of the horror in half the time!

Almost time for #Monsterdon. This film, “Horror Express,” might actually be scary in a 1970s way…

I feel like Telly Savalas is one of those guys who gets name dropped a lot on MST3k and I laugh despite not being entirely sure who he is. #Monsterdon

NUESTRO AGRADECIMIENTO A OPTICA COLLET, LOS REAL MVPS

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

its husband's first #monsterdon ! i lured them in with promises pf Christopher Lee

I seem to have grabbed the Spanish version. Muy bien. #Monsterdon

hmmm this hoopla version seems to be really blurry. guess it's not the a remastered version ugh. maybe i'll stream from elsewhere #monsterdon

70s fonts were the shit. #Monsterdon

@diazona that depends upon how you feel like trains

now

doesn't it?

#monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Ah, the days when train travel was the height of luxury... and horror. Sounds like Amtrak. #monsterdon

"There are you, drive like a demon
From station to station"

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

This one's mixing two things I like: Monsterdon and dense transit. But it already has terrible flashing lights, so... we'll see if I have to just listen in on this one?

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

...Also I'm not sure why the CREDITS are in Spanish, I checked and the rest of the movie isn't. #Monsterdon

que rallos es un foquista omg

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Opening soundtrack is very spaghetti western ...

#Monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Our copy of the movie has opening credits in Spanish! LOL. The title translates back to "Panic on the Trans-Siberian"!

#Monsterdon

People who are prone to seizures should not watch this opening @_@ #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon I don't know if it's Roku or the channel or what, but this stuff is so 70's and so out of focus.

this is some very 70s music

#monsterdon

Captain Kazan, a classy name if ever i've read one. #monsterdon

For some reason my copy of #monsterdon have Italian credits

I'm pretty sure this translates to: PANIC IN THE SIBERIAN DISCO #monsterdon #HorrorExpress

Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee? Cheekbone tripping hazrd. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon. Yeah, this score is… verrry 70’s.

words in spanish

finally, good cinema
