BAD MOVIE! BAD!
I want to personally apologize to #monsterdon for voting for that movie, I did not realize it was not set in the far future and was actually just set in the shitty shitty present that was our past. I should try to be a more educated voter.
Goodnight everybody, see y'all next week!
DON'T YOU "THE BEGINNING" ME YOU TERRIBLE MOVIE
Iβd like to nominate βThese bones are still moist!β for most upsetting line in cinema history. #Monsterdon
That's just how bad these writers were. This is the END you dipshits.
#monsterdon
And so they fucked off to⦠shit, I don't care where, as long as they. fucked. off.
Wow that was abominable. I lost like 15 sanity points watching this. Fucking hell. Although, as my partner points out, it was actually pretty easy to riff. So there's that.
Thanks for making it fun, fam, you guys are the best. Love ya'. Take care of each other. Be kind, spread love, watch better movies, and play games.
Goodnight!
Yup. I was right. I regret watching that.
Same time again next week? #monsterdon
THIS ONE GOES IN THE CORNFIELD
IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY DAY-FOR-NIGHT #Monsterdon
I'm not sure how candidates for #Monsterdon films are chosen, but once again I appeal for choices from the 1930s and 1940s. There are so many great films from that era. The Old Dark House, Doctor X, The Mystery of the Wax Museum, The Ghoul, The Invisible Man, Sh! The Octopus...
I remember Joel Hodgson saying in an interview that there were some movies they never did on MST3k because they couldn't subject the writers to watching them multiple times to write jokes. It wouldn't surprise me if this was one of the movies he was referring to.
Congratulations, everyone, for successfully making it through the year 2889 (except it's not the year 2889, I guess?) in the year 2026
Thanks to my inability to remember when I owe my spouse a date night, I joined y'all tonight through the magic of time travel (watching it hours ago and using scheduled posts), which somehow feels appropriate for a movie that doesn't take place when it purports to either
IT'S ALL LIES!
I see we're deep in the Gross People Interacting part of the movie. #Monsterdon
Maybe this guy shouldn't have marked his house as "nuclear war survival bunker" on #OpenStreetMap
#monsterdon the more I think about it, the more I realize this movie's plot catalyst could have been "a weird comet crashed nearby" like all the 50s Monsterdons
i'm meeeeeelting i'm meeeeeeeeeeeeelting #Monsterdon
So if this is a million years of evolution in a short time, the implication is that we're evolving towards staggering, disintegrating ghouls?
The old guy was in charge of a ship during the nuke tests?
The title was an afterthought. This is really set in 1969. #monsterdon #intheyear2889
If only there was some way to determine who is on the other side of this glass door without opening it, guess let's just face possible death instead
@ottaross Prepper dad wasnβt even good at prepping. The house had no defenses whatsoever, and he should have been instructing Joanna from an earlier age.
There are two women in the world. Alienate the one who loves you in hope of landing the one who hates you? Bold plan, sir. #monsterdon #intheyear2889
βYouβre the family now, dogβ #Monsterdon
#monsterdon What kind of rich people nonsense if having a model of the landscape you live in?
Well. That's 80 minutes I'm not getting back.
Still thank all of you who endured it with us!
Perhaps next week's will be better.
And then suddenly the rain scared the monster away and everyone was happy. THE END
I think I broke my neck in that car crash of an ending #Monsterdon
They've got less than ten minutes to get to the year 2889, I don't think they're gonna make it. #Monsterdon
Aaaand murder
Leave drunk hillbilly alone, getting drunk and dancing with a pretty girl is perhaps the most sensible reaction to Armageddon. #monsterdon #intheyear2889
It's the drunk aunt at the wedding dance! #Monsterdon
Oh get eaten already will you please. #Monsterdon
This movieβs really got me rooting for the extinction of humanity. #Monsterdon
"You've given me a deep feeling of responsibility to mankind"
Which I clearly didn't have before, being an army man. Kill 'Em All Jimmy they called me!
Ooo I hate "oh you're just a silly woman, your eyes cannot be trusted, after all you have emotions and shit"
Die -_-
Wow, we ALMOST had something happen there. Oh well, put the plot point back in the fridge to reheat later. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Oh, when he said "spring-fed pool", he mean an actual swimming pool fed by a spring?
That's really tacky. Don't do that.
"A thousand generations of change could take place in a matter of weeks!"
No, your DNA just unravels like a ball of yarn. Sorry, chief.
"Just raw meat and no shower please!"
RFK Jr. is that you??
Oh look. It's the same nuclear blast we always see. #monsterdon #intheyear2889
At least they're not quoting Oppenheimer.
@jadebees @Taweret @cherizilla In that sense #InTheYear2889 is a masterpiece.
The prepper is in way over his head;
has absolutely no conception of genetics and is happy to lean on the bible when his rudimentary coffee-table-book knowledge about radioactivity hits its limits;
and likes the idea of being in charge a lot more than he understands the implications of his decisions.
Truth in television.
That movie was so bad I think it broke a ceasefire
What qualifies as the worst movie of the year is ambiguous, but this was definitely in the running
That ATOMIC FIEND!
They couldn't afford a Theremin, so they've got someone offstage humming into a comb and tissue paper. #Monsterdon
"This thing is MAN sized!"
It's a full-size Snickers! #Monsterdon
This obscene music and dancing!
This is all gonna end with the daughter donning power armor to fight an Omega Mutant in the cargo bay.
"Three of those animals lived through it"
Godzilla, Rodan, and Gamera?
Please please please let one of these drawings be a dickbutt
YES, every movie needs a beach or swimming scene so the female cast can get almost-nekkid!
When they said "pool", I thought natural pool. Nope, just a swimming pool, implausibly cleaned without a poolboy.
Do you believe in mental telepathy? No, these characters would need mental processes first.
The first taste is never good, like this movie.
This Nicky guy is what happens when you use CHA as your dump stat then OD on Andrew Tate
don't drink don't smoke
what do y'do?
y'don't drink don't smoke
what do y'do?
This is a actually documentary about RFK JR I see
Oh, there IS a monster in this movie in addition to the usual one (humankind)
That's what YOU think... Heh. Heh heh heh. MWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!!!
@ricci einstein's equations were wrong and never accounted for the excess of freaky monster guy energy in the atom #monsterdon
"we saw Night of the Living Dead and thought hey, let's do *nuclear* zombies without any icky social commentary." #monsterdon #intheyear2889
#monsterdon There is no Los Angeles, there is only Zuul.
Eeek! A cowboy!
"But you confirmed our Airbnb reservation!"
@wulfric I was on team Mutant FiancΓ©e Larry #Monsterdon
@L1vY@mstdn.social He meant get the special lager out of the store room.
#monsterdon
And as another movie ends with all the grace of a plane crash, we say aloha to one really awful film. As always, just one last thing to do before you leave the theater:
Was IN THE YEAR 2889 (1967) the WORST #MONSTERDON MOVIE OF THE YEAR?
Jfc. I looked down to type something snarky and the movie ended. Did the woman have a baby? Does it get its own gun?
What the π€¬
I demand an Inquiry
Nosfe-Rad-tu
Sure am glad we get to see the biggest immediate threat let off the hook again and again. Sure ramps up the, uh. Tension. I guess. Not at all frustrating.
>_>
[sad swimming noises]
finally! Proper mutants, with made-up faces.
Weird how "a million year of evolution" always goes in the direction of eating raw meat.
There's a certain amount of tension between dad's Go Make Babies For The Good Of Mankind and his Oh But Get Married First Like a Good Christian
Feels like an episode of βAll My Circuitsβ
If pointing the Geiger counter at Granger measures 740 Roentgens, doesnβt that mean he is *emitting* 740 R, not that he was *exposed to* 740 R? Like perhaps he is contaminated with radioactive dust measuring 740 R?
Was this movie created on a dare to shoot an entire movie in a rich guy's house and yard?
Just like Pulp Fiction I bet they made up some random verses.
#monsterdon I mean, I realize that they think the wind is in their favor or whatever.
But in the event of nuclear war, I would still recommend at least closing the windows, and not going outside for long romantic strolls.
Grange is slowly mutating into James Coburn
WABBIT SEASON!
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889
Really it's impressive how werewolf bro can sneak out of the house multiple times without coming BACK to the house first. #Monsterdon
is it good when a plot abruptly jumps 3 weeks into the future because the writers can't really think of any way to move the story along naturally
Asking for a #Monsterdon
So, what happens when they run out of cigarettes?
Dammit Jim I'm a doctor not a radiation safety officer.
