More and more of these movies just need subtitles because the speech quality is so junky. LOL.

The set design and dressing is pretty good, all things considered, but these rubber suits and prostheses are a little rough and ready,eh?

Let's see if I got this right: there are two ways to get to Greyskull

1. The Coffee Maker of Doom - I mean Cosmic Key - programmed with a special set of tones to warp spacetime or some nonsense
2. A tunnel

In hindsight, Frank Langella has to be really, really happy he had to wear that skull mask for this career incinerator.

... wasn't that a very quiet town that Skeletor invaded? No citizens driving/walking around, etc., to see all the flying hoverboards and thrones and such, or the laser firefight ...

I guess everybody was watching the firemen & cops poke through the ashes at the high school (or wherever the battle of the bands was being held).

So, that felt like two different movies in one. Someone had an idea about a musical key that opened dimensional portals, but couldn’t sell it. Someone else had the film rights to Masters of the Universe. They met at a bar somewhere, started seeing each other, and together they created something… well… they created this.

If I had seen this at 17, when it first came out, I might have ripped my own head off. In my middle age, on a Sunday night with the #monsterdon crowd, it’s… still terrible, but context makes it bearable.

Oh, look, a post-credits scene. I guess Ferris Bueller had just come out the previous year…

Thanks, @4 8 15 16 23 42, hope that makes up for the Star Creatures. Until next week…

The best part is that you can tell they thought the movie was going to be a winner. So many references and actors from successful movies/tv, but they didn't really make anything original. #monsterdon

So he-man and his sidekicks prevailed despite the meddling of the useless earthlings and the bastard cop gets to retire in eternal comfort and baby Monica gets to fix her future

THE END

Thanks for the pointless, cheezy yet delightfully entertaining #Monsterdon @Taweret ! It was great pointless fun!
