Brain fevers. It’s always brain fevers. #Monsterdon

You can get Uber to deliver anything to your door #monsterdon

Fiction alternates between describing the inside a fast-moving carriage as the most perilous thing a person can experience to not feeling it worthy of any description at all. #monsterdon

"The sun is hurting me."

Relatable.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Post office, delivering one disorderly and slightly deranged husband. Who doesn’t recognize his wife, who promptly faints. Very helpful.

Ma'am, we've got a dried up old husk of a man for you. We'll leave him on the doorstep. #Monsterdon

Lucy, I'm hooooome!

no wait

#Monsterdon

Ol’ Klaus toting those boxes would make a killer UPS ad
#Monsterdon

That's one you can pull on your wife when you come back from a business trip

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Lucy, your fiancee Jonathan needs to get another job.

horse scene needs more coconuts

#monsterdon #mastoween #nosferatu1979

Lift with your legs, Dracula #monsterdon

Good thing they were home, and could sign for the delivery.

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

That little skip step when passing the cross was hilarious. #Monsterdon

The crucifix reaction, A+ #monsterdon

Well yes the plague, but what about the rat economy?

#monsterdon

"Nosferatu moving service"
#Monsterdon
#nosferatu

This is the vampire equivalent of maneuvering your couch up the stairs of your new apartment. #Monsterdon

hello! anybody home! i'll just let myself in! #monsterdon

Gorgeous sailing shots. #Monsterdon

Oh hey, Fester's back! Call Gomez! #monsterdon #Nosferatu1979

Those rat cluster scenes are amazing #monsterdon

Look at all those sweet squeakers! 🐀🐀🐀

#monsterdon

we actually get to see dracula move in this one instead of getting edged about a real estate deal for 2 hours, that is so satisfying. #monsterdon

That shadow of Dracula and the coffin up against the building was great!

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

Hey everybody, let's congregate around the mystery plague ship! Bring the whole family! #monsterdon

The vampire core strength training routine is top notch.

#Monsterdon

Typical government: let’s carry this dude off the boat and let the rats loose, THEN read the log explaining how the plague is aboard
#Monsterdon

Not gonna do anything about the hundreds of rats swarming into town? Like maybe take the ship back offshore and burn it? Ok then

#Monsterdon

Did the director misread "rats" instead of "bats" 🤔 #monsterdon

HOLY 🐀
🐀 🐀 🐀
🐀 🐀 🐀 🐀
🐀 🐀 🐀
#monsterdon

totally lost on what's happening bc i've been multitasking but whatever fuck it scene of all rats is the scene for me #monsterdon

Now that's a lot of rats!
#monsterdon

You know you didn't need to take the book off the boat to read it. #monsterdon

Oh sure now they're worried about the plague.

#Monsterdon

Infection control and quarantine are not big among the gentlemen, much like today #monsterdon

@Lazarou I mean, he didn't stink, so what harm could he cause?

#Monsterdon

GTFO tha miasma!

#monsterdon

@Lazarou if it was two wheels I'd say they're two tired --dad: Dad, they're dead! #Monsterdon

I could have sworn the rats on the ship being all dead was a plot point in some version of this story

#monsterdon

awww, the cute rats!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon “Not a soul on board.” Yes, but so many bodies.

For an unmmaned ship, it arrived pretty smoothly.
#monsterdon

It's a rat-fest!
#monsterdon

#monsterdon Not airborne, not a problem

Okay a whole empty ship just gliding into the middle of town is creepy as fuck. Might be more creepy if it was at night or there was anyone on the streets.
#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

that was a well timed sneeze, little girl. #monsterdon

If you want to have fun playing this scene, there is a fabulous mystery game called Return of the Obra Dinn, where you solve a series of ship-board deaths. Pretty much this.
#monsterdon

"The Master is here! I no longer have to take care of the place while the Master is away!"

#monsterdon

@diazona @FoxMime opening like the Mary Tyler Moore Show #monsterdon

How did they get that boat to stop on its mark? #Monsterdon

@strangefour it's called dead reckoning?! --dad #Monsterdon

that is a very effective corpse reveal I have to say

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Dead pilot managed to make port flawlessly… ok, a small scrape, but very good job for a dead guy.

The new Tesla sailboat, with autoparking. And rats. And Vampires (not standard equipment).

#Monsterdon

I sense that Lucy would feel better if she had a nice sandwich #monsterdon

well, look what the tied dragged in

#monsterdon #mastoween #nosferatu1979

('cept the ship isn't the Demeter)

Still a very creepy sequence of the ship drifting into dock(?) with the dead captain lashed to the wheel ...

#Monsterdon #Nosferatu1979

@jonny @Lazarou I admit it don't look like the fucking Volga. And neither is that canal. #monsterdon #Nosferatu1979

Be the Renfield laugh you wish to see in the world
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Kinski lit from below, doing a very good impression of nightmare fuel.

Kinksi: Don't let Renfield be sulky.
Herzog: okay.
Kinski: Sulky Renfield is my thing.
Herzog: I said OKAY
#monsterdon

@srol nah nah there is like recognizable Events Occuring in this movie so the passage of time is nonzero seconds-per-second, which puts it beneath the longest #monsterdon movies

I forget where it was but I recall vampires in some story where they absorbed the memories of those people they drank all the blood of. is that why Dracula ate the cook? To learn more recipes after hundreds of years?
#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

plague! teeheehee! #2020Flashbacks #monsterdon

Just gonna take a nap under the porticullis while boy murders a stringed instrument, no worries. #Monsterdon

I've never really thought about the geographical themes of the Dracula story, but it's inherently spatial #Monsterdon

"We only found the rats " :rat_bongo:

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

Ok, who let Gollum out of his straitjacket?

#Monsterdon

return of violin boy #Monsterdon

@FoxMime I would watch that sitcom

#Monsterdon

he wanted to go up to be peter lorre and this was his shot, he was not gonna miss it

and by the gods he's not missing it

#monsterdon #mastoween #nosferatu1979

Again, lovely traveling scenery 😌

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

@Lazarou i am actually very distracted by this because it does not seem like a detail herzog would overlook, like are we supposed to believe they truly dont know where they are or is it a joke or something bc im not getting it #monsterdon

Master of Rats is what I wanted to name my band, but Renfield made it weird.

#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

#Monsterdon **Give The Last Voyage of the Demeter a watch for an interesting version of Dracula's journey to England.

Dracula ate the cook? *Why*? That's like the one guy whose skills he can't use? #Monsterdon

Renfield's arc somehow makes more sense in this movie, as opposed to last week when he was just in an asylum and nothing about that made any sense

#Monsterdon

The beach graveyard is owned by the parish of Our Lady of Bad Choices #monsterdon

amazing locations tho

#monsterdon

“Getting mail over the Carpathians is very difficult.”

A modest understatement.

#Monsterdon

That ass though!

#monsterdon

@ricci I think the solution is you have to open sqrt(N) coffins

#Monsterdon

A+ renfield here, folks. #monsterdon

i actually missed how he ended up on thr ground with misplaced violin child over him... #Monsterdon

Very goth shoot of Lucy in the graveyard. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Renfield is almost upstaging Kinski. I didn’t think that was possible.

Demeter time! Will anything interesting happen?
I really should watch Voyage of the Demeter, even though I heard it was kinda mid.
#Monsterdon #NosferatuTheVampyre

Glad to see that we're all agreed the guy who stuck his bare foot into the rat box is to blame #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon ah yes that's the renfield I know.

I hope Seward won't let him have a kitten in this movie

This "open the one of the N coffins to see if what's inside is what they say" scene feels like some kind of of cryptographic zero-knowledge protocol.

#monsterdon

So, nothing else to declare? Just boxes of dirt for botanical experiments?

Well how do you explain these rats?! 🐀

#monsterdon

Oh, it's Peter Lorre AND Andy Serkis in one body. This was good casting. #monsterdon

Oh Lucy's gone full goth. I'm sure it's just a phase. #Monsterdon

I watched Last Voyage of the Demeter last weekend and I would watch Liam Cunningham in anything but it was a bit feral to feel properly Dracula-y to me. But now I think of it whenever we get to this part of the story.

#monsterdon

I bet you are missing that lovely breakfast spread now uh?

#monsterdon

"Machine parts." Cool.

#monsterdon #mastoween #nosferatu1979

#monsterdon

"Strange"

"Papers good"

"Nvm"

[Harker waking up on the cobblestones with a little boy playing the violin, badly, over him] Oh no what did I do last night

#Monsterdon

This is your 7am wake-up call, sir.
#monsterdon
