@CactuarJoe
I would have just clipped the first few seconds but I love the power rangers arm spread at the end too much lmao #monsterdon

#Monsterdon We killed the #Octaman. The rest of this movie will be about werewolves.

shooting octopus in the water? ain't that called Texas fishing

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

as usual an exquisite choice for an exquisite #Monsterdon from an exquisite host, @Taweret@octodon.social

can't wait for next Sunday's choice

by the way, have y'all noticed how #Octaman's kicks look like they're made of fine Argentinian leather?

#Monsterdon

bandana guy made that sarape out of a couple of Ikea rugs

true story

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

who wants to see cowboy's ass kicked by #Octaman?

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Having failed to seduce Poncho Whittling Guy, Pipeman is discussing cosmic mysteries with the Designated Girl when the #Octaman escapes from his Very Secure Containment Facility (a net on the ground).

Fortunately, Designated Girl casts uses her Turn Cephalopods ability to force the Octaman away, so he can crawl back into the water. We blame his escape on the rain, which I guess brings Octopuses back to full power.

i knew bandana güey reminded me of someone

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

¡PULPO A LA BARBACOA!

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon what i expected tonight

BTW where can one procure an old RV like that... asking for a friend

#Monsterdon
#Octaman

that's what you do to a mofo who wanna suck you without your consent

#Monsterdon
#Octaman

so Octaman seems to be in a permanent acid trip.

that could be good or bad

#Monsterdon

JC is no scientist... he's just the kind of guy that multiplies loves and fish and makes wine out of water. a real weird mofo

#Octaman
#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonBingo

listen, ceviche de pulpo is one of the best things to come out of Perú. let's not knock down eating one of the most intelligent yet delicious species on Earth.

#Octaman

@jonny 😂 😂 I love this so much!
We've got to have this gif be some kind of monsterdon metaphor, right? Bring it out whenever someone gets slapped down!

I'm sick laughing...I have to sign off.

#Monsterdon #Octaman

tonight we learned that small lakes in mexico are filled with octopi that makes adorable "mew mew" sounds

#OctopusFacts #monsterdon

I swear the writing team must've been like fourth-grade me given a five-hundred word assignment, stretching out the plot as long as possible. "And then...they crawled. And then crawled some more." #Monsterdon

ooooooh. she gangsta.

#Monsterdon
#Octaman

"Surprise motherfucker!" - Octaman (unused overdubbed dialog) #Monsterdon

BTW bushy beard guy was the designated black of the movie (first one to die). i guess all that hair made him look like a brunette King Kong 🙄

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon I think #Octaman was designed as the sort of movie that you take someone to on a date, in hopes that they'll get bored and decide to make out with you.

#Monsterdon I wonder if the rest of the movie will be this dark so we'll just have to make up what's going on. #Octaman

#Monsterdon Poncho Whittling Guy uses his Ethnic Knowledge to lead Our Gallant Explorers to the Even More Secret Lair of #Octaman . In response, Octaman watches the Gallant Explorers from the bushes, like usual, then walks through some plants as dramatic music plays.

those fake eyelashes are totally on point

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

so this is hentai but in reverse?

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Octaman

#Monsterdon randomly the film coloration, musical style and desert like setting of #Octaman is reminding me a little bit of #StarTrek TOS, only with less likable characters.

But I could Kirk and Spock out in the desert trying to catch a weird tentacle monster created by pollution that was killing scientists. That's like a slow Tuesday for them.

there's wild kangaroos in Latin America?!?!

#Octaman
#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonBingo

these primitive peoples are latinoamericanos and their primitive diet is... ceviche? 🧐

#Octaman

“It’s worse than I expected.”
We’re only two minutes into the movie, but he seems prescient.
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Having finished #Octaman, I give it a rating of "huh... that was a thing."

Anyway, I think it needed more Village People in it... they sort of just stopped at the Indian and the Cowboy... they could've like got a Sailor or Construction Worker or something.

so #Octaman just wanna touch and suck somebody

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Octaman digging the percussion tracks as Whistling Whittler climbs through the cave in hopes of reaching freedom.

Meanwhile, the boys trapped in the cave invent dirt gambling, while Designed Girl reflects on her newfound psychic cephalopod powers.

Hopefully they had enough budget for some dismembered limbs to toss to the ground during the final fight. #Monsterdon

@socketwench
Taking the movie in a whole different direction as Octaman tries to make his way in the city without job skills or … #Monsterdon

#WeWantPlates not a Satanic Circle for our pulpo a la barbacoa

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

Quietly humming "It must have been love, but it's OVER NOW..." #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Getting a better look at the #Octaman, we see that it has suspiciously foot-shaped tentacles.

Anyway, Octaman attacks the fortified RV, but we don't manage to mash the car horn enough to scare him away, and then he kidnaps the Designated Girl carrying her away with his weird floppy tentacle hands. She passes out for some reason, probably hoping to sleep through the hentai tropes she hates.

They're going to burn up all the oxygen around him! There's no way to refresh the oxygen. #Monsterdon

i seriously love the octaman costume

bring back practical effects monsters

#monsterdon

CEVICHE TIME!
now with 100% more 1970s action movie music!

#Octaman
#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonBingo

#Monsterdon #Octaman "How can I believe there is a sea creature with octopus arms that walks on the earth like a man?"

asking the real questions.

so we were someone in South America and now this slow Speedy González guy is whistling a jarape tapatío because why not

#Octaman
#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonBingo

This movie still has rom-com potential. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon In a moment of reflection, pipe man says that, even though the hippies are long haired and thus weird, they have a point in that pollution is bad and ecologies should be preserved.

Octaman's tenctacles have no issues becoming hard for...penetration. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Compound vision? OCTOPUS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY!

Just remember, somebody was proud of this dialog at one point in their lives. #Monsterdon

Let’s release the octopus into its natural habitat… the grass.

#Monsterdon

Octabass, seems related #monsterdon

well this is stuck in my head now.
Dead Kennedys - Winnibago Warrior #Monsterdon

30 years ago one of my first online homes was a teenage BBS where the sysop's handle was Octoman, and his sig was "I can be killed by a flashlight!". Feeling some closure. #Monsterdon #Octaman

and as with all the best #monsterdon movies, its just suddenly over

ty for joining, everyone!!

#Monsterdon Shocking twist as #Octaman does a surprise attack from within the RV, its only natural predator!

The boys are helpless, but the Designated Girl uses her Commune with Cephalopod power, a logical evolution of her Turn Cephalopod power. Unfortunately, this just makes the Octaman try to kidnap her again.

THE BETRAYAL!!! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon like everyone else I am completely confused by the setting of #Octaman. I thought that we were in the American Southwest, only there's also a swamp... and maybe a seacoast?

Is this Texas, maybe? California? Somewhere in Mexico?

what's with slow Speedy González' (aka bandana guy) teeth?!?!

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

"I'm not trapped in here with you, you're trapped in here with me," - Octaman, probably. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon it seems weird that #Octaman's secret lair is in a cave... maybe there's water in the cave so we can have a poorly choreographed underwater cave fight?

I checked and the monster suit is not in the Smithsonian.

#Monsterdon #Octaman

#Monsterdon trying to rescue the Designated Girl from the #Octaman, Sunglasses Guy and Cowboy attack the creature with Flashlights and then a Flimsy Fire Circle. Also, we somehow expect the flimsy fire circle to eat up all the oxygen around the Octaman, even though they are outside, beneath the sky, which famously has a lot of oxygen in it.

This plan seems to be working anyway for some reason, and Octaman starts wheezing and thrashing before falling over.

aaaah! the weird electronic tweeting sound from the creepy Dr. Who i grew up watching

it means it's MONSTER TIME!

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

why are we even hunting the octaman? we should be lobbying to make this protected octaman habitat

#monsterdon

there is an aquatic monster murdering people. let's go out in a very small, tippable boat. this is a flawless plan

#monsterdon

Well, so far the body count is justifying the large cast. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Octaman I missed the "p r a c t i c a l . f e m a l e" comment so I'm not sure which character in our adventuring party is the most sexist.

i love the octaman

i want things to work out for him

#monsterdon

bushy beard guy was giving me some Fher Olvera vibes

too bad he had to die so Maná could live

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

the bushy beared guy was waaaaay head of the Latino Rock craze of the 1990s

#Octaman
#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonBingo

and there's a chita ready to sing, I LIKE TO LIVE IN AMERICAAAAAAAAAAAAA

#Octaman
#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonBingo

The creature actually seems to enjoy his work. So that’s nice. #Monsterdon

Cowboy aesthetic goes well with watery adventures. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Notable special effect scenes:
In the shot from Bucket Octopus' perspective, it looks like he has compound eyes, the thing that octopuses famously don't have.

The cute toy octopus crawling over grass is cheap but adorable.

today there's a new breed of adventurers... SCIENTISTS!

thank you @bunnyhero for the heads up. the Daily Motion link has the intro you mentioned, not the Vimeo one

#Monsterdon
#MonsterdonBingo

Fucking off into the sea to start the film? Interesting. #Monsterdon

Perhaps the real monster was the kaleidoscope filter all along.

#Monsterdon

For those of you scrolling through your timeline, you're about to hit a mass of Monsterdon postings about Octaman.

Should you not wish to read through them, here's how to filter them out, at least on the web browser:
1) right click on the gears & open in a new tab
2) choose "Filters" then "Add New Filter"
3) give the filter a title, check all boxes under contexts, choose hide completely and put "#Monsterdon" in the keyword box.
4) Click on "Save New Filter"

... and you're done.

theory: the octaman/rv attack was actually just the stunt actor trying to leave his trailer and getting pissed at the cast blocking his way. they just happened to film it #monsterdon

I just want to reiterate here, Octaman did NOTHING wrong in this film. His kids got kidnapped by some roving white folk, he fought back. Octaman had every right to defend himself against these clowns. #Monsterdon

OCTOMAN HAS FUCKED OFF INTO THE S--- err, into the Lake.
The End?...!
#Monsterdon #Octoman

#Monsterdon Wow did not expect the monster to just be killed by sufficient gunfire. I mean... most things can be killed by sufficient gunfire, so I guess its not too surprising.

Oh wait, nevermind, the monster got away. I think. It escaped in like three feet of water. Huh

As a memorial or something, Whistling Whittler throws his wooden doll in after the Octoman.

Thanks @Taweret@octodon.social
#Monsterdon
Have a good week everyone!

OH NO! Poor Octoman...
His shotgun wedding has to be called off.
#Monsterdon #Octoman

I NEED this to end with octaman driving off in the rv

give me this

#monsterdon

Haven't seen this much mind-melding with atomic aquatic monsters since Roger Corman's Attack of the Crab Monsters ...

#Monsterdon

#AttackOfTheCrabMonsters

It was beauty that killed the beast... #Monsterdon

BTW because that's totally a thing:

bandana guy, who sports a sarape and talks like a slow Speedy González, is wearing what looks like the gringo version of elekes Yoruba 🤨

#Octaman
#Monsterdon

smartest character of the movie: octaman #monsterdon

Cave octopi, well known staple of underground ecology. #Monsterdon

i feel like leaving the octaman alone would decrease our odds of getting murdered by the octaman but im just different like that

#monsterdon

<Insert Tom Servo making Ominous Trumpet Noises here> #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon This octopus is surprisingly good at long trail hikes.
