Hmmm. The river monologue could have been tightened up

#Monsterdon

PLASTIC FRUIT?! HIS NAME WAS TIMOTHY AND HE WAS BEAUTIFUL

#piranha #monsterdon

Money in lieu of rent.

???

#monsterdon

That looks like a book of coupons. #monsterdon It's a trap!

My favorite cocktail, scotch & gin & bourbon. #monsterdon

Okay, that face looks familiar. I’d totally expect this sitcom staple to show up in a funny film like this.

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978

scotch, gin, and bourbon. and tequila. can this guy make a delivery to my hose too? it won't even require a hike. #monsterdon

“You bit me!”

(I’ll never not think of Charlie bit me in a situation like that).

#Monsterdon #Piranha

Dukes of Hazzard - adult version.

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978 #BiteyFish 🐟 🐟 🐟

🎵 Bumping up and down in a little red wagon, won't you drink booze with me? 🎵

#Monsterdon

@Taweret am city folk, can confirm

#monsterdon

Lots of totally healthy day drinking here. #Monsterdon #Piranha

I absolutely love that old man's shirt. I would wear the fuck out of that. I don't usually wear button ups but give it here. #monsterdon

'Bye, David. And whatserface.

#Monsterdon

Jack is wearing white shoes in the mud? They do match his shirt.
#Monsterdon #Piranha

Brandy!! what a good dog! please don't get eaten by fish! #monsterdon

TEQULA! Now that is a good idea.

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978 #BiteyFish

@Bluedepth omnivorous just means they'll eat flesh OR veggies. equal opportunity like most animals

#monsterdon

Jack's got a pretty rad shirt. #monsterdon

Back in the time before magnetometers and X-ray machines in airports #monsterdon

Well here at Gordon's Killer Fish Farm we plant piranha fresh... #Monsterdon

The kind of drunk who gives his dog a shot every now and then for companionship.

#Monsterdon #Piranha

She's two-thirds blood hound? Seems like someone's parents were breaking the beastiality laws.

#Monsterdon

"i'm 2/3 bloodhound, i told you that when you hired me" with that tone of voice reads 100% as being a furry and 0% as being good at finding things. why else would you phrase it as "i told you that when you hired me" like you're disappointed they forgot #monsterdon

Does the dog...?
#Monsterdon #Piranha

Now THAT's high quality video gaming right there. #monsterdon

I've seen this guy in something

#monsterdon

Bigamist & bad check lady. Sounds pretty hardcore.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon hundred monsterdon bucks says the old man with the wheelbarrow is feeding the piranhas

I am watching the #Monsterdon, I'm just hurrying to do my Sunday evening tasks, too!

I am very charmed by this movie so far, feel like we're in for a treat.

#Monsterdon

That dog wasn't a bloodhound. That's not her dad. #monsterdon

"A little law breaking will do you some good."

Literally the advice I've seen from anarchists today.

It's up there with the constant worries about "creating a panic", the implicitly authoritarian messaging.

#Monsterdon #Piranha

It’s the Winter Worlock! #Monsterdon

Just when you thought it was safe to go swimming in sewage treatment plant water.

#Monsterdon

Money in the bank!
My money.

... whose bank then?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I love that Jaws game

Mel Cooley! #Monsterdon

Only 2/3rds, lady? That's not even unusual on Fedi.

#monsterdon

Two thirds bloodhound? How many parents did she have and why were two of them dogs? #monsterdon

Man the subtitles are obsessed with the type of orchestral music. Now they just read "soft orchestral music"

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978 #BiteyFish

"I can find anything, Earl, I located your wife's love for you didn't I?" #Monsterdon

mister bo wax? didn't they give that away on the price is right?

#piranha #monsterdon

She's ⅔ bloodhound

#Monsterdon

Terry Whitesuit, teenage P.I.

#Monsterdon

"i can find anything" perhaps even an entertaining movie somewhere in this script. #monsterdon

@Taweret one of the directors who launched his career with Roger Corman #monsterdon

@Taweret I WAS ALSO WONDERING THAT

#piranha #monsterdon

keep pumping that not-fun game with quarters

#monsterdon

Starting your Jaws rip off with a close of a Jaws video game.. that takes cahones. #Monsterdon #Piranha

Jaws the Video game.
Jaws the breakfast cereal.
Jaws the rip off movie.
Jaws the flamethrower!!
#Monsterdon #Piranha #Merchandising

#Monsterdon I feel like it's not the first gratuitous boobs we're gonna see this week again

#monsterdon The white zone is for immediate fishey-bitey only

When I was hired I also told my employer I was 2/3 bloodhound.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Did you hear that? The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only...

Id never have swam in a mystery pool but yall do you, I guess
#Monsterdon

Oh dang, directed by Joe Dante? He's done a ton of shit. #monsterdon

1bit Jaws ripoff? lol so subtle

#monsterdon

Gamer girl better survive #monsterdon

Wait, the bigamist?? What?

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978 #BiteyFish

Ah right, Hertz being as big of a shits in 1978 as they are in 2024.

#monsterdon

The white zone? #monsterdon

don't start with your white zone shit, movie. #monsterdon

Is that a real arcade machine? #monsterdon

Hey, Legally Distinct Shark Game! #Monsterdon

Shark Jaws - the arcade video game!

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978 #BiteyFish

was this a real vidja game? was there an actual early jaws vidja game?

#piranha #monsterdon

Just in case there was any question from where this film was influenced....

#monsterdon

heck yes 70s video games #monsterdon

Come on dude. What's eating you and Barbara?

#Monsterdon

"Heather Menzies" against a sea of blood-stained water. Nice.

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978 #BiteyFish 🐟 🐟 🐟

Bradford Dillman was his actual name. In the actors' own words: "Bradford Dillman sounded like a distinguished, phony, theatrical name -- so I kept it." #monsterdon

Credits brought to you by The Color Red #Monsterdon

So demure of her to keep her undies on
#Monsterdon
#Piranha1978

lolol, playing Jaws. at least this movie knows what it's about. #monsterdon

Oh dear, I can already tell the director and screenwriter completely misunderstood what made Jaws good. #Monsterdon

Ok, I'm like 30s behind you all, but seem to be watching the same movie since I just saw the cool title effect.

#Monsterdon

Enter Louisa Von Trapp. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon The title card has appeared. Kind of subdued and reserved. Then the red cast filter! YAY! We don't really care who is starring, just that they feed yonder fishies. That's really it. We aren't going to sympathize or anything, they get what they get.

@YsengrinWolf And I I took the restricted road less traveled? --dad I will die on this joke #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 1970s video game sighting! yesssssss

@wohali And the headphones are half as big as his entire head.

#piranha #monsterdon

It's weird how Barbara was choking as she was getting eaten. Like piranhas also exhale toxic gas?? #monsterdon

Piranha 2 is much better with the flying piranhas. And there's Megapiranha, which probably the usual silly The Asylum stuff.#Monsterdon

I’m only here for Dick Miller. #monsterdon

Does anybody else miss this era of video games as much as I do?

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978 #BiteyFish

And now the title and lead actors on the screen, red filter on water at night. This is really well done.
#Monsterdon #Piranha

And the film title sinks into a widening pool of blood!

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978 #BiteyFish

#Monsterdon

Is she about to swim topless in a sewage plant!?

Wait, and there are Piranhas in the sewage water!?

Somewhere between art and under-roos

#monsterdon

That was impressive number of bingo squares checked off before the opening credits #monsterdon

@wohali Damn, rich guy here buying a 2600 within a year of it's release.

#Monsterdon

Tonight's #Monsterdon is the same age as I am.

We might as well be watching this...

#monsterdon

Nice title transition into blood.

#Monsterdon #Piranha1978

oh what's earl lyon' about now

#piranha #monsterdon

Starring Bradford Dillweed MAN DillMAN. #Monsterdon #Piranha

Videogames!

#Piranha #Monsterdon

Oh I believe Kevin McCarthy _was_ eaten by pirhanas which was very enjoyable.

#Monsterdon
