We got ourselves a convoy!

#MaximumOverdrive

Back in the 80s, we all had happy assholes

#monsterdon

Lawnmowerman reference?
#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

in retrospect we’re not entirely sure why we rigged the toy delivery truck with operational glowing red green goblin eyes #monsterdon

So wait, his name is Bubba and he calls everyone bubba? #MaximumOverdrive #monsterdon

Seeing that Bible salesman say "outta my way bitch!" is FANTASTIC excellent writing and direction Mr. King! #Monsterdon

So basically shut down all the gas stations, problem solved in a few days.

I mean. Sort of.

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

Pumped my fist so hard at "you wanna rock and roll with me, pus bag?" that I missed the chance to pump it again for "you happy asshole!" #Monsterdon

tackiness as a sign of evil seems like a recurring device in King's stuff

#monsterdon

#monsterdon where is your bible NOW

Knocked him out of his shoes! Myth confirmed!

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

Duncan had a reason to live, he was a goner....

Lol, loving how the Creep is being tormented

#Monsterdon

Feeling like I'm gonna OD on the sheer amount of 80s.
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Lawnmower is the worst Transformer ever.

Trash metaphor

#Monsterdon

"Look out!"

Dude we just had a ten minute scene about why he CAN'T DO THAT. #Monsterdon

@wulfric King of the ROCKY road! amirite?
@sean

#monsterdon

Oh someone's getting punched. #Monsterdon

Maximum Overdrive x Twisted Metal collab when?

#monsterdon

“From the Creation to the Fall of Mankind”

Sir, that’s literally only the first three chapters of the book #Monsterdon

Ice cream truck in Maximum Overdrive mode #monsterdon

@saucerlost It's a Helluva Drug!
@GramrgednAngel #Monsterdon

#monsterdon It's a rude thing to say “Homicidal Rampage" when you mean to say "THE IT DEPARTMENT" and we grunt, drag-knuckles, and growl out “reboot" and "it's always dns… always.” ;)

@Bluedepth It didn’t really get any better.

#Monsterdon

Sex toys..... think about it....

#Monsterdon

MULCHER WHY I HARDLY

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

So the guy strangled by their walkman... Is the cord prehensile? #Monsterdon

Ice cream truck of ....... death!

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

This child's reaction to his neighborhood getting Purged is akin to mine when I thought I had bread for sandwiches and turns out I didn't. #monsterdon

@Lazarou moving parts or not?

or mostly just because it's cool.

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

we did a movie where the monster was rocks and it made more sense than this

#monsterdon

For years, John Hodgman claimed to be shopping-around a screenplay in which 'all animals attack all humans'.

#monsterdon
#MaximumOverdrive

And the truck menacingly TURNED ON ITS LIGHTS!

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

NOT THE DOG #monsterdon

#monsterdon The dog with a car in his mouth!!!!! WTF???

DID THAT PERSON GET KILLED BY THEIR WALKMAN!?!?

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

Wait, how did a Walkman kill someone? #Monsterdon

Will the jingle truck back up? It should for extra horror.

#MaximumOverdrive_1986 #monsterdon

Real life, where slightly butch girls just casually drop “you’re cute” lines to strangers after a few deaths by possessed motor vehicles.

#Monsterdon

I knew this movie was gonna be stupid but wow

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Here comes another load…**GOD PLEASE LET IT KEEP GOING** LOL

Aw, poor beetle :/ #Monsterdon

How the *fuck* is the radio station still working? #Monsterdon

Just an average 80s kid on a bike, making his way home after having Seen Some Shit...

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

i'm enjoying the movie-effects carnage carnage everywhere set to rock music

#monsterdon

#monsterdon hammocks are technology too

top five least appropriate moment in cinematic history for horny music right there #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🚚 🤖 📠 🏧 😱

The sprinkler salutes to the kid bike riding = A+++ filmmaking

EVIL SPRINKLERS. Watering your lawn.

#Monsterdon

Sprinklers like AAAAAAAAAARGH I WILL *KILL YOU HUMAN CHILD* sprinkle sprinkle sprinkle #Monsterdon

If the sprinklers turned on like that while I was riding my bike I'd think it was SO COOL
#monsterdon

"You're cute." Lady, you somehow have a mullet

#Monsterdon

Not gonna lie that Demon Rig has a groovy interior #Monsterdon

everyone trying to figure out the "rules" of which machines go evil and which don't: bless your little hearts

#Monsterdon

Apparently the wing mirrors on that truck, which were not motorized at the time, become motorized once the truck becomes sentient?

#monsterdon

"What kinda guy could figure out what's happening in short order?"

King: a short order cook

#monsterdon

"Here comes another load... of joy!"
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon That's right...climb into a machine. Lube up, stuff yourself up in there, you’d be moody too, maybe?! ;)

here's your problem

your truck's been set to evil!

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

“Happy Toys: Here Comes Another Load of Joy!”

Stephen King, don’t ever stop being yourself.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

You want driverless vehicles? THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS

Boy howdy Lisa Simpson sure is a...an...assertive driver #Monsterdon

That clown has seen some shit. #Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

tubi restarted this movie for me after an ad, so I had to fast forward to the first scene with Lisa Simpson #monsterdon

The BIC truck had the BIC slogan of “Flick Your BIC.” I really hope that was a real slogan at the time, but I also hope it wasn’t.

#Monsterdon

i got bingo real early ^_^

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

The most unrealistic part of this movie is that the invading alien intelligence can perfectly drive stick first try.

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

“Are you dead?” is such a great question. There’s only one answer #Monsterdon

Wait how are SOME vehicles now sentient and others are not?

I need to stop thinking so hard

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

Respect for the props team making every single headlight look like an eye, apparently

#Monsterdon

How did Yeardley Smith look about 50 when she was only 20, dang.

#monsterdon

I guess this would've seemed unrealistic before Elon decided he could make self driving cars without lidar #monsterdon

Yeardley Smith, the voice-actor for Bart Simpson.

#monsterdon
#MaximumOverdrive

I remember Yeardly Smith from this and The Legend of Billie Jean before she was on the Simpsons. She looks SO YOUNG here. #Monsterdon

But why are trucks and not cars effected though? C'mon......the clock turns evil but the car is our friend regardless?

#Monsterdon

It almost feels like Lisa wants Curtis to be dead #monsterdon

Mater's origin story.

#Monsterdon

I like how she asks "are you dead?" instead of "are you alright?"
#monsterdon

I ... I don't know if I would have saved that man from being run over by that truck. #IAmABadQuaker

#Monsterdon

MATER! Goddammit, Mater!

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

[clock ticks menacingly]

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon why does the 13yo bride also look like grandma zeitel from Fiddler on the Roof?

Dude's about to get murdered by Mater. #Monsterdon

I thought you all were joking but that literally is the actress who voices Lisa Simpson playing the bride in this movie

#Monsterdon

Is a pair of pliers a “machine”? Would a socket wrench come after you? #monsterdon

yeah, go ahead and get your fingerprints all over the place, sir. #monsterdon

Feels like had seen a movie like this before ...

#MaximumOverdrive_1986 #monsterdon

An "Eat my shorts" an entire year before The Simpsons first appeared on The Tracy Ullman Show #monsterdon

They’re gonna die, aren't they? #Monsterdon

His dash is layered with those comic gospel mini books they used to make. #monsterdon

I was expecting the green goblin truck to run over that man like the steam roller in Austin Powers.
#monsterdon

although we all know that stephen king isn't afraid to stick a cast of varied characters in one place and then slowly kill every single one off

#monsterdon

"Are you on something?!"

Stephen King probably heard that a LOT in the 1980s #Monsterdon

go go go goblin truck #TeamMonster

#Monsterdon

[18-wheeler quietly revs engine]

#Monsterdon

not the evil goblin truck, surely that couldn't be evil #monsterdon

Truly love her hat and jacket combo. #Monsterdon

Green Goblin hates sexism. #monsterdon

@klu9 it's playing up to every cliché I have about the place, lol

#Monsterdon

"I took you thirty feet, I expect some poon!" #Monsterdon
