tbh not trying to survive but going out in a blaze of glory and splendor is probably what i would try and do in any semi-complete apocalypse, but there should be tons of survivors of this one, basically anyone that was in a metal structure, that should be like entire apartment buildings and stuff so i'd want to hang out for a bit and see some fucked up shit #monsterdon
Guy in room with security screens...in sunglasses.
Figures that a bunch of creeps would survive.
You know, I really respect a zombie movie that has time for a shopping montage. #Monsterdon ☄️
@himbovoorhees I don't know why, but I cannot stop giggling at this. #Monsterdon
I want this bathroom. Only partly because it's trice the size of my actual bathroom.
#Monsterdon #NightOfTheComet
AUTOMATION IS THE SECRET THEME #monsterdon
Some post apocalyptic retail therapy
It wouldn't be a schloky eighties horror flick without gratuitous sexy girl time #Monsterdon
#monsterdon They really should have gotten the original Cindi Lauper version of Girls just want to have fun. The cover version is just not the same.
Couldn't afford real Cyndi Lauper. #Monsterdon
Audrey is played by Warhol movie star Mary Woronov!
FREE GLAMOUR SHOTS!
@RobynGoodfellow It's a cheap cover, though. $5. #monsterdon #NightOfTheComet
I think they secretly made this movie just so they could shoot a music video for “girls just wanna have fun” in an abandoned estee lauder #monsterdon
OK, it's a cover but it's iconic. We love the song.
(And I am seeing Cyndi Lauper next month live! Woo hoo!)
Did 80s hair stay like that for hours and hours or was hairspray reapplication required? I forget. Like everything else I may have known in the 80s.
Remember kids, it's always cool to steal from big corporations. Don't wait for the apocalypse 100% five finger discount
thats clearly a little white boy, just shoot him
#monsterdon tonight, we shop!
cindi lauper! i love this movie so much you guys. the uzi and the shoes! i can't with this movie.

#monsterdon fashion montage time
Huh. Did not expect Cyndi Lauper here
Is this the most expensive needledrop on #monsterdon so far?
oh my lord here we go #monsterdon #nightofthecomet
Pre or post breakfast club dance sequence?
Girls: they just wanna have fun
@Taweret@octodon.social why do you think they're celebrating?
#Monsterdon #NightOfTheComet
@maple Except for the pandering to 80s boys who have mommy cop issues
@paco you are implying that whatever they are saying is important to the plot

Big hair is amazingly robust at holding its shape after a few days
Fucking Cops after the apocalypse? Fuck zombie cops of the cursed Earth!
#Monsterdon #NightOfTheComet
their mom is dead
Remember when you could step on a car's bumper and sit on the hood? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
#monsterdon
something gives me the feeling the creators of this movie don't hold cops in the highest esteem #monsterdon
oh lmao they stole a cop car #monsterdon
"Look, I'll work on the cure, but first I have 16 packs of cigarettes to smoke." #Monsterdon
@sean Or that the helicopter actually played 80's music instead of making normal helicopter noises, why not
Can't help but notice Sam went from present tense to past tense there. #Monsterdon
Jesus, even the cinematography and framing are really good. I have yet to find a single thing not to enjoy about this movie
I am now a full 3 1/2 minutes behind if not four minutes behind. This sucks! Ads suck.
Shopping montage!
This is almost as much girls hanging out in deserted streets as I was afraid of back in the 90s. But the empty streets are really cool and atmospheric.
#Monsterdon #NightOfTheComet
"I'm getting a rash, too."
That's....not a rash.
If a rash is on the mantle in Act one, it will go off by Act III.
What? They didn't even record the words here? they just blasted helicopter sounds over it? #monsterdon
i always forget the timelines on basic infrastructure failures in sudden human-selective apocalypse... like how long until dams start to fail. the power would have been off in the first day, and also what about irrigation and plumbing systems? like maybe the red sky is from all the nuclear missiles going off in their silos because the failsafes/dead mans switches went off #Monsterdon
Is the logo for the science people just one of those cereal box mazes? #monsterdon
Is this really the time for one-liners, Hector? #monsterdon
welp, can't wait for the comic book series about those kids and how they escape the experiment center they're about to be locked in. #monsterdon
I missed where they got the guns, and how did Hector get something different from the revolver? #Monsterdon
#monsterdon The underground vault for survival has a lot of Fallout vibes going
Oh hey some character actors as government lab rats.
#Monsterdon #NightOfTheComet
Why the hell didn't he took the truck?
#monsterdon
bringing in kids just like the pod people
Lady scientist is 100% correct too. They're probably breaking all kinds of protocols that were written before the comet. Procedures meant to keep them alive.
Do the subtitles specify that you can't hear what they are saying? #monsterdon
I'm surprised there isn't eighties music overtop the helicopter noise.
@srol my problem is always wanting to type "comparision"
Kids amirite #monsterdon
this was written by a 60 year old man or
Ah, to be a woman in science in the 80s, wearing legwarmers over your science jumpsuit.
@Krisss Weekly monster movie watch party. We vote on a movie and then watch it together on Sunday. ^^b #Monsterdon
This is against the Prime Directive #monsterdon
Oh hey the random scientists are back. More explanations, let's move the plot along
Loss of spelling...
This doesn't have to be a comet thing. I spell "refered" wrong every time. #monsterdon
Secret government things are afoot!
#Monsterdon #NightOfTheComet
"Generic Mariachi Music (Hector's Theme)" #Monsterdon
@paco I know someone who has fifteen dollars
So much Yamaha DX7 in this soundtrack #monsterdon
Oh, the scientists too?
Zombie kid will get entangled in swingset, no worries
oh hey is this that scene from THE THING?
Two Dollars! I want my two dollars. #monsterdon
Kid's the best actor in the whole film.
@msh Whats #monsterdon ?
@trixter "Ah. Yes. I see. Hm. No thank you." #Monsterdon
Hey she said zombies! But not in context of actual zombies just radio listeners.
#Monsterdon #NightOfTheComet
He upgraded to a 1911
Hunk opens the door: idontknowhatiexpected.gif
I always said the neighborhood kids were little monsters anyway
Herrrrrre's KIDDIE
guy's being attacked by zombie children from minecraft. careful dude, you are in real trouble rn. #monsterdon
@ramsey Whats #monsterdon
I guess these zombies are 28 days later adjacent
Wait, his truck doesn't have a back... huh?!
@CactuarJoe "Nope." #monsterdon
The zombie noises coming through the door probably should have been the first clue
We don't want any.
The kid zombie is suitably terrifying I'm impressed #Monsterdon
Zombie kid! Zombie kid! Zombie kid!!!! Shut up this movie is awesome #Monsterdon ☄️
"fuckin' rugrat get the hell out!"
@CactuarJoe Whats #monsterdon ?
I respect Hector for not wanting to shoot a zombie kid. #monsterdon
HE JUST CLOSES THE DOOR XD #Monsterdon
OH A KID! Damn, the writers were NOT kind to you, Hector.
'salright? 'salright.
