The alleged answer is on the movie's Wikipedia page, but the real answer is, "Who cares?"

Absolute bastard movie. Call the ICC

#Monsterdon

The monster fucked off into the rain, John's probably gonna shoot Mickey and bring this thing to a halt.

zzz

#Monsterdon

Here Steve, let's stand in the water when there's lightning!

#monsterdon

you should have shot him when you had the chance John, you nazi clown

#Monsterdon

Nosfe-Rad-tu

#monsterdon

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.

>_>

#Monsterdon

I wonder what Godzilla is doing now.

#Monsterdon

Having a hallucination that this film transforms into Frogs

#monsterdon

Monster please kill this guy

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

@strangefour I don't partake in the double feature but I appreciate the invite! i just don't have the energy for two

#monsterdon

[sad swimming noises]

#Monsterdon

Why have they not seen any radioactive birds yet? Mosquitos?

#monsterdon

finally! Proper mutants, with made-up faces.

Weird how "a million year of evolution" always goes in the direction of eating raw meat.

#monsterdon #intheyear2889

Take Steve's cigarettes away and he'll be naked on the roof, howling at the moon

#Monsterdon

"They start to whistle and shout, TAKE IT OFF!"

Yeah! Take the movie off!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon The bulbous head, the hairy sack underneath…

"Don't touch him. He's hot."

Like Fabio!

#Monsterdon

"Don't touch him, he's hot"

I'll say 🫦

#Monsterdon

gadget? are you referring to a key as a gadget?

#Monsterdon

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

#Monsterdon

"They should bear children as soon as possible"

#Monsterdon

Grange is very representative of the film. Radioactive, and wandering aimlessly.

#Monsterdon

If pointing the Geiger counter at Granger measures 740 Roentgens, doesn’t 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?

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

It's been three weeks and they're out of fresh water. So he had water for two people for… a few months, at the outside?

I guess since there's a source nearby you don't need that much, but hm

#Monsterdon

Just like Pulp Fiction I bet they made up some random verses.

#monsterdon

I wonder what the moist bones are doing right now

#Monsterdon

#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.

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

didn't you hear it?

the sounds of toots on distant servers?

#monsterdon

sure would be awkward if Larry showed up

oohhhh that mutant we saw, could it be ... ?

#monsterdon

"Dramatic pause" is on my #MonsterdonBingo card.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889 🎥🧻

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

"He's a FREAK"

Damn, bigotry against ghouls started early.

#Monsterdon

So, what happens when they run out of cigarettes?

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Dammit Jim I'm a doctor not a radiation safety officer.
#monsterdon

maybe this will turn into Clue (1985)

#monsterdon

Thanks for cleaning the scrambled eggs off of me.

Scrambled eggs all OVER my face… what is a boy to do?

Oh hey, HO-scale apocalypse! #Monsterdon

In my 50-odd years of life, I have never seen a beautiful woman stand on a balcony brushing her hair. Does this really happen?

⁉️ APOCALYPTIC TRIVIA 🌏🔥

What's in a name?
All promotional materials for tonight's feature, including the All-Important TV Guide, use the title "Year 2889." But, as you saw, the onscreen credits are actually "In the Year 2889."

Similar attention to detail was applied to every facet of our film.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

George Romero's Night of the Living Bores

#monsterdon

Dad, you think *everyone* is contaminated with “woke”

#monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

"we can't open the curtains, that will tell other's we're here!"

#monsterdon

Three million people dead? Nobody's left?

If the world population is that low, why are we fighting at all? #monsterdon #intheyear2889

And now, we're in a peaceful backyard listening to birds and the last radio transmission.

"Maybe there's no one left to hear my voice"

No, I can hear you. Unfortunately. #Monsterdon

No more roentgens in my mentions,

#Monsterdon

I award #InTheYear2889 0 out of 5 brilliantly lit night time swimming pools.

The most you can say for it is that some stuff happened in it. The most you can say for the characters is that some of them sometimes approached being almost likeable. The monster threat was rather unthreatening.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Ok I now have a winner as the worst movie I ever saw. Dances with Wolves has now been dethroned. Wut?????
My first of these offerings and, unforgettable.
Wut????

Best review

#Monsterdon

Not the regular Luger, the SPECIAL Luger

#Monsterdon

@Taweret cheers. I need a shower I think... #Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie #Monsterdon

Yeah. As in: "WHO TF voted for this movie??!!??"

@skatem #Monsterdon

If only the abrupt ending had come 45 minutes ago....

What!? And it's over? Ha!

And the missing foley/sound-effects didn't even get the pivotal gunshots that wrapped up the movie! Ha ha.

#Monsterdon

And the movie fucks off into the beginning with gunfire that feels cut off

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I do not believe we should have watched that

#Monsterdon

.....wow. fuck right off.

#monsterdon

"That's why it wouldn't go in the pool!

"Well, that, and the urine-reactive paint marker I put in there..."

#monsterdon

Hahaha guess who is AFRAID to fuck off into the sea?

Twist worthy of M Night.

Oh wait he did it, actually

#Monsterdon

There's probably an Internet Libertarian out there who has a blog that puts "In the Year 2889" on an online list of movies with important political themes.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

...If there's no other way? Does the old man think she's gonna get bit and turn into a mutant? #Monsterdon

This is just Beast Of Yucca Flats with more pool

Items of power in this "movie":

@jivens It's more coherent than some things we've watched, but the bar's down around the mohorovic discontinuity

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

go into that fog, Tim. Maybe there's booze in the fog. #monsterdon #intheyear2889

So Mickey don't drink, don't smoke, what do he do

#Monsterdon

"Don't go into that fog!" he says, going into that fog

#Monsterdon

There’s something in the fog

#monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

If I was watching this movie in a theatre I would legitimately think the incredibly quiet score is sound from some movie in another movie hall bleeding through.

#Monsterdon

Gotta cut away from the action quick! We almost had a plot point happen on-screen! D: #Monsterdon

that zoom-out has me appreciating that this movie does not have unmotivated zooming sickness, at least.

1969 is right on the border there and the shakycam we've been "treated" to suggests the operation of the camera is not exactly by a professional, but uh

It's Something

#Monsterdon

"Good night"

But it's 1pm, I-- Oh, Day for Night again. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Wild, in some of the prints, these scenes are completely blue-gel-for-night.

So I had a whole joke prepared "I wonder what my L and M cones on my retinas are doing right now, I know the S cones are getting buttered" but maybe 1/3 of y'all would even know what I meant due to the lack of blue-vision :/

"This is where I start to peel!"

If her skin came off, and she started eating people, that would be great.

#Monsterdon

I think I'm only picking up on 75% of the eugenics subtext of this movie, and am possibly missing some side story where the low-born poor people lack virtue and so will doom their social betters or something.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

NO FUN ALLOWED

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889 🎥🧻 #MonsterdonBingo

ooh the sexy clarinet

#monsterdon

"They should bear children as soon as possible" --he's getting grosser by the minute

#Monsterdon

okay I guess the implication here is that he's *fabricating* a key by whittling

despite the key he held up clearly being metallic

whatever.

#Monsterdon

@SnoopJ

At least it's not Communion-long

#Monsterdon

the score being mixed so low this entire time is cracking me up

budget on this thing was probably like $15 and free sandwiches.

#Monsterdon

"The women should bear children as soon as possible!"

Ew :/

#Monsterdon

"They should bear children as soon as possible"

PLEASE FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF OLD COOT

#monsterdon

It’s at least 20 minutes since Generalissimo Prepper talked about updrafts and I’m starting to get confused on the premise. #Monsterdon

Mental telepathy, as opposed to the other kind of telepathy

#Monsterdon

Wait, how much whisky did the rancher bring? Is he traveling back and forth from his place?

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Meanwhile at the moonshine still in extra blue day for night.
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

let Mickey be the first to be eaten by mutant fiancée

#Monsterdon

Mickey is sooooooooo creepy.

Push him in the river

#Monsterdon

"Steve, do you believe in mental telepathy?"

Steve rolls his eyes at where this date is going
