I don't think we're going to be seeing the ASPCA seal in the credits. #monsterdon

@diazona Still beats being imprisoned in burning wicker #monsterdon

come to the TARDIS? what?!

#monsterdon #mastoween #nosferatu1979

#Monsterdon 🧛 ⚰️ 🦇 🩸🕸️ 😱

That first sheep and the black spotted piggie 💞 💞

So is the dancing a ward for the plague, or all these people driven mad by death and the sway of the vampire?

Or what?

#monsterdon #Nosferatu1979

the only people who have eaten any of the magnificent food presented to them have been the rats. everyone else is too fuckin busy to take a plate #monsterdon

SO MANY RATS while people are having a picnic. Ooops, it's the rat's picnic now.
#Monsterdon
#nosferatu

just a fancy dinner, here at the end of the world. (i seriously love this, this is Heavy Vibes for me.) #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Don't turn down a free drink (unless it's poisoned or something)

this is what Europe is actually like

#monsterdon

"...we invited some friends"
"Did you have to invite ALL of them?"

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

See this? This is how you get a Bloodborne.
#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

OK, gang. We have like 15 minutes to wrap this up. I think something needs to HAPPEN. #monsterdon

Uhh… what was that guy doing to that goat? #Monsterdon

@ramsey @Victorsigmoid

No kidding. From swooning to lone investigator.

#Monsterdon
#NosferatuTheVampyre

Loose sheep and pigs trotting around the town square is a pretty good shorthand for the breakdown of social order. #Monsterdon

good to see people at least making a token gesture at covid safety by dining outside #Monsterdon

@otheorange_tag @Taweret ah my phone says it's called Tsintskaro https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsintskaro

#monsterdon

Herzog is just a bit on the nose with the sheep & pigs wandering the street during a plague.
#Monsterdon

They are very excited for the mass funeral.

#Monsterdon

Some of these revelers do look like they're just locals from whatever European city this was filmed in. #monsterdon

THERE'S A PLACE for ussss
SOMEWHERE a place for ussssss

#monsterdon #Nosferatu1979

Is she feeding garlic to the rats?
There are sheep in down town!?
#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

laughing at the halfhearted "ehh," when he saw the cross #Monsterdon

kid. no. GOAT?! _definitely_ no. NO.

#monsterdon #mastoween #nosferatu1979

This scene hits really hard post-pandemic #monsterdon

the courtyard with the empty chairs and sheep rambling around is definitely a liminal space right? #monsterdon

a french horn. yeah that guy's better off dead. #monsterdon

“These superstitions have been supplanted by science” - oh my sweet summer child #monsterdon

#Monsterdon I know this isn't why they're dancing but I feel it's a bit DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD (but Drac is still around)

This was the first Burning Man.
#Monsterdon
#nosferatu

@otheorange_tag @Taweret i've heard it before - it's a georgian folk song i think!

#monsterdon

this is such a Herzog scene omg

#monsterdon

#monsterdon What is this? Vitamin D deficit Wicker Man?

@aprilfollies I was thinking matzo #monsterdon

#wearAMask 😷

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

Plague party!

#monsterdon

@Bluedepth I wish they'd make up their minds about that first letter tho #Monsterdon

That's one hell of a mid-plague flash-mob. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon One should always have a lively folk dance in the background of your plague burials. For ambiance.

things are getting real weird in this town #monsterdon

Are they literally doing ring around the rosey lmao #monsterdon #nosferatu1979

Suddenly hearing "Dancing in the Street" in my head ...

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

And suddenly, Lucy has become the most interesting character in the story. #Monsterdon

see, if you eat the crew they can't help you unpack your dirt. #Monsterdon

The people dancing in the square are, of course, singing Ring Around The Rosie. They must be.

#monsterdon

I'm confused about the livestock in the village square with coffins.
#Monsterdon
#nosferatu

look all this rats! she should have brought a flamethrower.
#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe @wohali If only he had gone to a Dutch city pretending to be Paris instead

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Have we shifted to Animal Farm now?

Another movie about men dying because they don’t listen to women #Monsterdon

PIG POOP!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Can I have a cow or goat next?

@Taweret what was that song?! #monsterdon

if your choices are dying of the plague and becoming a dracula at least consider the dracula route #monsterdon

ooh lookat all the fuzzy gray lil dudes #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon PIGS

if rats eat communion wafers do they become repellent to vampyres?

#monsterdon

Look at all those little white rats. :neorat_pet:

Nothing like the 12 pounder we have around here

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

i appreciate lucy is taking matters into her own hands #monsterdon

And once in the free market of 1800s Europe, capital (Dracula) can flow freely to wherever accumulation has the greatest potential #Monsterdon

Dracula running is sillier than Renfield.
#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

#monsterdon should do the Subspecies movies. Radu Vladislav. Now there is a vampire who fucks.

Lucy is not afraid of the rat hordes
#Monsterdon
#nosferatu

#Monsterdon SHEEP

#Monsterdon or maybe they're his beloved pets and he did not spay or neuter them like bob barker would recommend

Wait what the hell was that? #monsterdon #nosferatu1979

PIG!

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

If she knows so much about vamp[yi]res, wouldn't she be doing this during the day?

#Monsterdon

Snapped these today for y’all #Monsterdon

#monsterdon I mean... Respect for the guy. Although maybe he is not pushy because the lady seems vampirecurious already

@moira Doctor handwriting

#Monsterdon

"...Cut! Rat number 113, try it again with a little more feeling."

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

@wohali Drac would look *smashing* in a nice beret :D #Monsterdon

Lucy being all, 'Well enough of your shit, I'm gonna have to solve vampires on my own." is awesome.
#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

@Taweret Zoom zoom #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Lucy why didn't you bring a Rat Terrier or three???

@CactuarJoe Need to throw a hat/cape/etc into the air and freeze frame

#monsterdon

Equine influenza?

#NosferatuTheVampyre

@athena_rising It's a bird! It's a plane! It's NOSFERATU-MAN!

#Monsterdon

Van Helsing weaseled out. What a turd.
#Monsterdon

@wohali it's like when animal crossing villagers run around on the plaza in front of Resident Services

#monsterdon

sometimes when youre a vampire alone in the city you just gotta pretend to be an airplane

#monsterdon

Where's the cheerleaders for the teams of rats? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Distracted from serious thoughts by Renfield, who is gloriously unserious. And not at all rat-phobic.

♪ You're gonna maaaaaake it aaaafter aaaaaaaaal~ ♫ #Monsterdon

"more leadinum?" "yes, I prescr... wait, wha - NO, you fool, LAUDanum! Jesus, no wonder he's still dying!"

#monsterdon #mastoween #nosferatu1979

That's depressingly relatable these days :ablobcatgrumpy: #toldyouso

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

#Monsterdon I'm an airplane! I'm an airplane!

@otheorange_tag ...yup 😢

#Monsterdon

Oh my god, the majestic cry of the bald eagle^W^W red-tailed hawk #Monsterdon

Yah, girlfriend, let's see you go action hero. Do it #monsterdon

How does that wheat analogy relate to finding and destroying a vampire?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon So, my region is very foggy. Legit we look like that in case you wondered

@diazona I just figured out 37% of our population! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon "Mother Superior, my medicine." oh it's that kinda night huh

I was practicing for a marathon.

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

Van Helsing talking about investigating too soon is such doctor speak. You'd think he was worried about getting insurance preauth lol #monsterdon

lucy needs to GET CHANGED out of that fucking placemat #monsterdon

Okay I don't know German but when Lucy said "lair" in the scene with Van Helsing I swear the line had a word that in Yiddish would be shlof-vinkl, sleeping-corner. Is that what she said or am I hearing things #Monsterdon
