I'm sorry, that was mean. #Monsterdon

suddenly, NIGHT TIME #monsterdon

STOP IT WITH THE ATARI 2600 BEET-BEET FFS WE GET IT ITS THE CREATURE'S HEARTBEAT NOW STOP #monsterdon

NICE ZIPPER, ASSHOLE #Monsterdon

@yatsu @Taweret Well one of them is a room, so...

#Monsterdon

Meanwhile, a hundred miles away... #Monsterdon

@Taweret Oh man. is this gonna culminate with Octoman vs RV? #Monsterdon

@Taweret octopus monster or RV, have you ever seen them both in the same room? i rest my case. #monsterdon

@Taweret Grew up and decided to become a sequel

(I wish)

#Monsterdon

An impressive barricade of.. um.. not an exceptionally large tree. Guess we're trapped. #Monsterdon #Octaman

@Zander Octopod version of tinnitus, poor guy needs to see an ear specialist :/ #Monsterdon

#monsterdon 57:15 LOOK OUT THERE'S A GIANT CRICKET JUST OFFSCREEN

either the octaman is on screen or the rv is. those are the only two modes this movie has

#Monsterdon

Oh, now they're waiting till it's light out before doing things. Hunting Octaman in the dark wasn't dangerous, but driving?
#Octaman #Monsterdon

iiiii know a place

where the creature can hide

and the light is so down low

i know a place

where i can rat out octaman like the weaselly traitor i am

#monsterdon

@joewynne It disappeared, mysteriously, and the woman shacked up with octaman afterwards?! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon
Happily, there are all these nicely graded roads in this wilderness that we can drive our Winnebago on.

@joewynne @CactuarJoe I keep thinking about how dangerous it is to be in that costume in the water like that #monsterdon #octaman

Why does he have a mouth like this?

It's like he's based on an Anime octopus.

#monsterdon

oh nooo they captured #Octaman 😢

#Monsterdon

"...let's make tracks, doc"
"but we still have plenty of toilet paper"

#Monsterdon #Octaman

#monsterdon sounds of the <s>unseen world</s> every track off record 7 in the library's sound effects compilation set played at once

absolutely random noises on the soundtrack. very 70s cinema

#monsterdon

@Taweret and hopped up on tranqs #monsterdon

damn gotta pee #monsterdon

@CactuarJoe It worked for Blair Witch. #monsterdon #octaman

Octaman has to be my personal favorite off-the-wall octopi-themed 1970s horror sci-fi film ... and that's really saying something because Tentacles had Shelley Winters in all of her insane 70s glory in a comically large sombraro ...

#Monsterdon
#Octaman
#Tentacles

Octaman takes rejection better than cowboy did. #Monsterdon

Okay, now the monster is hypnotizing the human. Paranormal romance? Is this a kissing flick?
#Octaman #Monsterdon

So Octaman always has that sound effect playing in his head when he's looking around? Sounds exhausting

#Monsterdon #Octaman

The Shape of Water (2017) #Monsterdon

DRAMATIC FLAIR in the soundtrack while #Octaman stumbles around aimlessly on the sand (also there is fire)

#Monsterdon

I'm sorry, if I can see an actresses' eye boogers you're too close :/ #Monsterdon

Their eyes met and they knew. #monsterdon

@combatwombat well dang, i learned something today

unfortunately xD

#monsterdon

it's really fond for her #monsterdon

@CactuarJoe
They told him, "Go ahead and get in the suit for some safe shots. We won't use real fire until later, once you are out of the circle."

#Monsterdon #Octaman

turns out, a woman's place is in front of the mutant, wrangling it. #monsterdon

big o' sea-gar #monsterdon

Kill him Octaman. Kill him and cut the script length down by half. #Monsterdon

this would be a short film if not for the superfluous shots of octafeet dragging through the water
#octaman #monsterdon

Poor #Octaman being trapped in place by a flashlight

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon “Maybe what sounds like pain to us is the opposite to him.” DUDE.

Y'think this guy's ever gonna say two sentences that are related to each other? #Monsterdon

octaman just wants a smoke, he's jonsing pretty hard #monsterdon

look all Octaman wants is to be LOVED #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon
We're really hinting at the Octaman-Susan romance angle, aren't they?

oh now the philosophical part :D #monsterdon

Okay now invoking Beauty and the Beast sounds like SYMPATHY FOR THE MONSTER. #Monsterdon

Whippoorwills singing before someone dies is an old legend.
Wait. Aren't they in south America? Are there whippoorwills down there?
#Monsterdon #Octoman

@paco That's what happens when octaman has dairy, someone check on the woman!?(not related) 👀 #monsterdon

Well the dailymotion stream just ended quite abruptly... but that might be enough #octaman for me #monsterdon

i was worried the monster would barely be in this movie but they are really giving us a fantastic amount of octaman screentime

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Sympathy For The Monster for you Bingo players.

yeah fall asleep while on post for the monster #monsterdon

@randy_s Reminds me of #Futurama 😂 #Monsterdon

please let the octaman fuck off into the sea okay this is already too much movie for this plot #monsterdon

@plaidtron3000 The one on Archive. It is shockingly one of the best qualities of anything we've watched so far that's been on archive. Outside of the Godzilla & Gamera movies

#Monsterdon #Octoman

day for night for day for night for day for... #Monsterdon

Ooh, SOMEONE WITH A CAMERA for the card. #Monsterdon

But, NONE of them slept, not just the doc.

#monsterdon

"...we gave it all our Bennies"

#Monsterdon #Octaman

It's not gonna stay locked up, you guys got a half hour left. #Monsterdon

in it's natural radio active habitat #monsterdon

he's pumped full of tranquilizers. ah would twer it were me. #monsterdon

:bing: ring of fire consume all oxygen inside or not #monsterdon

realtalk why did they not get a dancer or someone with literally any leg agility at all to play the octaman

100% real question was this the best they can do

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe In the 70s all clothing was extremely flammable! .. or so I'd heard #monsterdon

@otheorange_tag That’s some serious Rocky Horror science. #Monsterdon

remember Paul el Pulpo? 🐙 ⚽ #Monsterdon

@strangefour holy cow, which version are you watching? That's way better video than on Vimeo. #monsterdon #octaman

Wait, if the fire burns up all the oxygen, does it leave the micro-oxygen or is that gone too?
#Monsterdon #Octaman

@RobynGoodfellow @strangefour they seem real proud of what they ended up with too. they show it a LOT. close-ups, broad daylight, the works #monsterdon

Lookit #octaman's cute lil butt #monsterdon

Credit where credit's due, though, you are supposed to cook octopus hot and fast. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Well at least he's not getting the plague now hashtag octopope

#Monsterdon
That was an awfully controlled "light the gasoline on fire" moment

"The fire ougtta burn up all the oxygen around him!" And then the entire woods. THANKS, ASSHOLES. (Also, why is Octaman not yet eating Steve?) #Monsterdon

Nooo stop it Octaman is overstimulated! Get the lights away!

#Monsterdon #Octaman

it's getting dizzy #monsterdon

And if the fire was in an enclosed space, it would consume the oxygen. However this is terrible science. #monsterdon

@strangefour ...and now that song will be stuck in my head tonight lol #Monsterdon

How can we sleep when the world's still turning?
How can we sleep when our beds are burning?

#Monsterdon #Octaman

@aprilfollies why not both?! 🤓 #monsterdon

Missed opportunity. Should be playing Johnny Cash's Ring of Fire song.

#Monsterdon #Octaman

Fire

Is there anything it can't do?

#Monsterdon

@strangefour Real great costume work; particularly for one's first film! You know what they say about how one gets to Carnegie Hall ... just not in that particular humanoid Octopus suit! 🤣👍📼
.
#Monsterdon
#Octaman

Flashlights make Octoman sleepy.
Octoman has been caught in a burning ring of fire!
#Monsterdon #Octoman

Let's run around in a circle with a flashlight is like something they're so on classic Trek. #monsterdon

...Does the whole plot hinge on the compound vision that octopuses have? Oh no.
#Monsterdon #Octaman

are we gonna remove ma'am before we start that fire? or like, no... #monsterdon

What's with the vacuum noise now in the soundtrack once they trap Octaman?

#Monsterdon #Octaman

i've seen enough bonfire videos from the deep south to know that you can't just dump gasoline haphazardly like that if you want your aboveground pool to survive #monsterdon

flashlight bad, floodlight okay though (apparently) #monsterdon

they referred to king kong earlier. is octaman going to climb a building somewhere? #monsterdon

This is one of those movies, where's there one group of people thinking at least I wouldn't starve this week and another group seriously considering their life choices. #monsterdon

I love that they just slapped two tiny tentacles onto this costume's legs to keep the Octaman from being a Sextaman #Monsterdon

Hey, they finally figured out how rowboats work.

Now they just need to learn not to be eaten by land octopus.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Now taking bets: is Octaman seeking a romantic relationship or a live laboratory sample?

choosing to believe octoman has ponyo plans for the kidnapped lady and she's about to be made a princess #monsterdon
