I wonder what Godzilla is doing now.
Having a hallucination that this film transforms into Frogs
Monster please kill this guy
@strangefour I don't partake in the double feature but I appreciate the invite! i just don't have the energy for two
[sad swimming noises]
Why have they not seen any radioactive birds yet? Mosquitos?
finally! Proper mutants, with made-up faces.
Weird how "a million year of evolution" always goes in the direction of eating raw meat.
Take Steve's cigarettes away and he'll be naked on the roof, howling at the moon
#monsterdon The bulbous head, the hairy sack underneathβ¦
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
Grange is very representative of the film. Radioactive, and wandering aimlessly.
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?
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.
WABBIT SEASON!

Really it's impressive how werewolf bro can sneak out of the house multiple times without coming BACK to the house first. #Monsterdon
"Dramatic pause" is on my #MonsterdonBingo card.
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889 π₯π§»
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.
#monsterdon
maybe this will turn into Clue (1985)
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

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.
George Romero's Night of the Living Bores
Dad, you think *everyone* is contaminated with βwokeβ
"we can't open the curtains, that will tell other's we're here!"
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,
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.
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????
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889
So, we should also watch THE DAY THE WORLD ENDED (1955), right?
To see the less-bad Corman movie this one was ripping off?
Not the regular Luger, the SPECIAL Luger
@Taweret cheers. I need a shower I think... #Monsterdon
Yeah. As in: "WHO TF voted for this movie??!!??"
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.
And the movie fucks off into the beginning with gunfire that feels cut off
I do not believe we should have watched that
.....wow. fuck right off.
"That's why it wouldn't go in the pool!
"Well, that, and the urine-reactive paint marker I put in there..."
Hahaha guess who is AFRAID to fuck off into the sea?
Twist worthy of M Night.
Oh wait he did it, actually
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.
...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
Am I my exotic-dancer girlfriend's keeper?
This wasn't in the bible.

@jivens It's more coherent than some things we've watched, but the bar's down around the mohorovic discontinuity
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
"Don't go into that fog!" he says, going into that fog
Thereβs something in the fog
Gotta cut away from the action quick! We almost had a plot point happen on-screen! D: #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.
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.
NO FUN ALLOWED

"They should bear children as soon as possible" --he's getting grosser by the minute
gadget? are you referring to a key as a gadget?
Itβs at least 20 minutes since Generalissimo Prepper talked about updrafts and Iβm starting to get confused on the premise. #Monsterdon
Mental telepathy, as opposed to the other kind of telepathy
Wait, how much whisky did the rancher bring? Is he traveling back and forth from his place?
let Mickey be the first to be eaten by mutant fiancΓ©e
Meanwhile at the moonshine still in extra blue day for night.
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889
"Steve, do you believe in mental telepathy?"
Steve rolls his eyes at where this date is going
@CactuarJoe i hate re-heated plot points
lol *gratuitous bikini scene
So we got one plot point in half an hour. Did they have to ration those, too? #Monsterdon
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
Elvis tells John that the bible has the answers to everything because this movie is also a Chick tract, but with added mutants.
#monsterdon You know it's an exciting movie when they interrupt the action for a bible study group.
EVOLUTION DOES NOT WORK LIKE THAT
That wasn't a rabbit, it was a Crunch bar :D #Monsterdon
huntin' and trappin' and EATIN'
Grange is slowly mutating into James Coburn
"oh these past few week with youβ¦ just off-cameraβ¦"
Outside a bird is flying and a mutant klingon is skulking in the jungle.
Meanwhile, inside the dumbass bedroom, two of the surviving boys are saying they heard coyotes (probably radioactive) and one of them is sick of canned food and wants to eat meat.
We then see the ranger outside being stalked by a mutant klingon.
Granger is trying ACTING. Wonder if anyone else will make an attempt.
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889
So, uh, the 2889 apparently doesn't mean anything. It's a left over title from another work (an adaptation of a Jules Verne story) that was never made by the studio.
Oddlyβ¦ sexual way of saying βThatβs what YOU thinkβπ€
lol, this dude really likes his meat
