Heh - not my first viewing, saw this one in a convention's movie room back in the late 70s ... and several times since then.
thank you for hosting as always @Taweret and good job team <3 #monsterdon
@moira All that glistening blood and nobody even tried to sneak a taste #monsterdon
@Zerofactorial definitely a stretch. more like body-snatchers but I guess that was taken xD #monsterdon
@moira Surprising it came out first in the voting, but I am no pollster #monsterdon
I'm also ashamed to be alive. #Monsterdon
Honestly just overall that was a way better movie than I expected, particularly given the title. #monsterdon
Could it have been.......Godzilla? #monsterdon
I feel cheated the aliens with the giant skeletons didn't put in at least a cameo #monsterdon
Wow, what a movie! Totally had to influence Alien and Prometheus, per our Mastodon analysis! We can make some money consulting for the plaintiff in the expected lawsuit!
Thanks everyone for another fun evening! Still trying to catch my breath.
Fun times. Pretty colors. Good cheese. 8/10 could have used more teeth. π Goodnight monster people! #Monsterdon
"They were gone!" and he points, to make sure they look to see that the lights he saw aren't there.
IM IN #monsterdon
@Taweret damn I'm sorry I missed #Monsterdon tonight! You see, I git stuck commanding this team on a space mission and...well it was hell and I was totally out of my element you know...
Meteor rejector, meet MacGuffin rejector. #Monsterdon
Okay, "vampire" is in my estimation a stretch #monsterdon
ok #monsterdon bingo freaking rules (i think thanks to @cheribaker ? ) and there has got to be a way for us to keep a bank of squares and randomly generate them each week.
visually for the era that looked _great_. other than the spaceship models which were pretty chunky. But they were used well. #monsterdon
Another great #Monsterdon in the can!
Thanks again to @Taweret for hosting!
This one had all kinds of fun.
* Motorcycle space suits
* Space Vampires
* Plastic Wrap ghosts
* Meteor rejectors
* Giant alien skeletons that used tuning forks to open doors
* Single, double, triple twist!
italiansβ¦inβ¦space!!!! #monsterdon #planetofthevampires
@DinosaurRobo HOORAY! #monsterdon
@ishiku Just as people are always fine with vampires eating _other_ people's faces, vampires are fine with rejecting _other_ people's meteors #monsterdon
@trixter They found seas to fuck off into! #monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
Huh, y'know I think that might've been the best American International picture I've ever seen. It was actually coherent! #Monsterdon
They live on vibes!
Wait is this a prequel to Lifeforce?
#Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
thanks all for another great #monsterdon and @Taweret for organizing!
@moira i was getting worried, my video player was just displaying infinite remaining time until then #monsterdon
Wes must have been the inspiration for Wesley Crusher #monsterdon
How come these vampires are cool with the meteor rejector? #Monsterdon
A+ Melodramatic Death from Wes. #monsterdon
has Mark blinked once in this movie? #monsterdon #planetofthevampires
#Monsterdon problem streaming. Started all over now I have to sit through every commercial break. Forget it.
Oh c'mon, gimme ONE sinister laugh! For the credits! #Monsterdon
I guess the black uniforms are to make the space vampire/zombies look more menacing. And the red SSS symbol sure is unsettling.
#Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
This does give them an ocean to fuck off into, though, which let the movie end #monsterdon
@yatsu Probably just didn't know your pronouns, buddy #monsterdon
#monsterdon Once in awhile, I like the Impending Menace to menace yet another day.
"...how will they accept us?"
It'll be fine, just make sure you TikTok.
"I"ll stop you!"
"Oh, okay. Go have fun, kid!" #Monsterdon
"My brother, he's turned into one of them*."
* A guy who doesn't care if he gets spaghetti sauce on his face #Monsterdon
the extra S on Mark's uniform means he's Especially Crazy. #monsterdon
good thing that hockey stick was there
The zombies are just here to steal their copper wires! Damn meth head zombies.
#Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
woah, DOUBLE double twist! #monsterdon
@trixter They just happened to to land in a not-so-nice area #monsterdon
#monsterdon If one must have Space Vampires, I choose.
there's no way he'll be able to see me if I stand here in plain sight!!
AH! PLASTIC WRAP JUMPSCARE!
A g-g-g-g-ghost wasted packaging materials.
#Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
Whoa whoa whoa, hold up here movie. C'mon, huddle up in the middle here. I can respect going for a last minute twist but this causes SO many plot problems. #Monsterdon
@Zerofactorial No wonder their planet is dying. #monsterdon
The most horrible thing about those creatures was the wasteful plastic packaging they came in #monsterdon
"Sonya!"
"Wess, i have told you a billion times to leave me alone, i am not going on a date with you, period."
#monsterdon
I was expecting more vampiric behavior when I threw the bingo card together but alas. These are metaphorical space vampires. A rare subtype. #Monsterdon
I miss the giant skeletons.
The Vogon dead were a comforting presence.
#Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
OK, body count 15 from this crew, plus likely 18 from the other ship.
#monsterdon Mark has that look
@joewynne @jonny "Be a psychologist for one minute longer, doctor! What is your prognosis?!" "Let's go see." #monsterdon
@trixter
Maybe a sea of fog.
#Monsterdon What they need is Christ and some holy water to get thru this mess.π
They're less laser rifle than two-handed grill starter, turns out #monsterdon
I feel like there was a cut subplot about people being unable to sleep or something? #Monsterdon
Sorry, I've lost track of the body count.
It's cute that he was playing with refrigerator magnets before taking out a critical component #Monsterdon
@joewynne two dudes died in each others' arms earlier. #Monsterdon
@jonny @moira This is extremely valid. #monsterdon
Settin' up the sequel!
@jonny @moira Oh, I was wondering. Everyone seemed so businesslike, really #monsterdon
that liftoff effect was done under water! so cool #monsterdon
Well you two aren't stumbling up to the space ship like a pair of shambling zombies. Come on board! Look at our delicious brains.
#Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
@jonny I counted "oh my god they were roommates" #monsterdon
There's no sea for anybody to fuck off into in this one. :( #monsterdon
@moira I basically marked sexual tension immediately when the movie started because of the way the suits were making me feel #monsterdon
Every time that other not-Mark crewman turns his head, his profile reminds me of Trip in Star Trek: Enterprise. #Monsterdon
okay, there are like 9 minutes left in this movie, guys, better step it up. #monsterdon
All around me are Empty faces. Dead faces.
Worn-out places, worn-out faces.
#Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
I call "Masers or Lasers" #monsterdon #bingo
"I'm ashamed to be alive" I'm ashamed you're alive too. #Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
@jonny Valid #monsterdon
Maybe I wasn't picking up on it, but has anyone identified sexual tension?
Between any two individuals is fine. Anything...throw me a bone.
Sorry.
"...Karen, Brad, Fiona. Dead."
"Dead?"
<long pause>
"Okay ... what's for lunch?"
(man, i haven't seen commercials in so long, i feel like some kind of archaeologist rn.) #monsterdon
shot in the back, and who's to blame?
#monsterdon
Is this Toby the one who's Mark's brother? #monsterdon
@WhiskeySailor show your card! #monsterdon
Relatedly, are we all watching this #Monsterdon on PlutoTV? What minute mark are we on-ish? This is the first time Iβve had time to actually partake.
That fast zoom on the bubbly stuff was .... weird.
βyou canβt harm me with violenceβ lmao #monsterdon
the ray gun effect is okay actually
#monsterdon The guns also work as cigarette lighters.
See, this is why when 2 dudes show up at unexpectedly YOU SPLIT THEM UP WITH OTHER BUDDIES! #Monsterdon
okay, legit good seeing Sonya get in there and trying to help. #monsterdon
"You can't harm me with violence." he's gonna bloody well try. #monsterdon
@Zerofactorial It is truly a mystery! [nodnods] #monsterdon
@moira Which one is Racer X???? #monsterdon
#monsterdon oh right into the kneecaps
Is that Venusian Judo? #monsterdon
MARK SMASH SKELETON!
MARK HATE VOGON POETRY!
#Monsterdon #PlanetOfTheVampires
space vampires being immune to violence seems OP #monsterdon
ACTING! #monsterdon
