"Scuttlebutt" is my favorite old word that should make a comeback. #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

okay, not gonna lie tho, this writing is alright. #monsterdon

There's only one color of fabric on the moon #monsterdon

Blood Sucker Cocktail

For you @jonny

#QueenOfBlood
#Monsterdon

Well this space stuff looks cheap but beautiful.
#Monsterdon #QueenofBlood

Get away from the theremin, please I beg you!
#Monsterdon

Love the newsreel voice. #monsterdon

Back to the Future 3 came out in 1990

#monsterdon

Menac ing closeup of space radio, which goes... nowhere #monsterdon

"It must be some" She totally blew that line. "KEEP IT. We'll fix it in post." #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

This is EXACTLY like 1990!!
#Monsterdon

MC Hammer's U Can't Touch This came out in 1990

just for context

#monsterdon

The 1990s will have turtlenecks! - the 1960s.

#monsterdon

We got puffy jackets in the future but not jumpsuits or futuristic fonts everywhere. Not a good tradeoff.
#Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

The far-off future of 1990! #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

All right #Monsterdon, let’s do this! Excited to join in for the first time 🥳

I remember 1990 VERY differently #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

Theramin! now we're talking!

#QueenOfBlood
#Monsterdon

We should brimg back credits at the beginning of movies. #Monsterdon

Forrest Ackerman? As in Forry Ackerman? #monsterdon

This summer... Dennis Hopper IS the Queen of Blood

#monsterdon

@unlofl No, see you watch it earlier taking notes, then watch it again while composing toots and use the schedule time to make it seem like you just thought of it right at the second
#Monsterdon

American International, the mark of "quality".

DENNIS WHO?

#Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

#monsterdon Basil Rathbone!!!! 😍

wait, The dennis hopper??? like, Dennis dennis hopper??? #monsterdon

Oh shit, Dennis Hopper? #Monsterdon

Gotta admit, actually kinda digging these credits. I don't know what kind of artistic choice this is, but it's definitely _a choice_. #Monsterdon

John Saxon *and* Basil Rathbone! #monsterdon

BASIL RATHBONE, WHAT #Monsterdon

Well, the background artwork for the titles is pretty trippy. Good start.

#monsterdon

More modern art credits. Very Richard Powers. A+ #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

Oh shit, John Saxon is in this movie!? I wonder if he'll have a thin moustache here, too :D #Monsterdon

@paco See, I think we should discover that he's the mastermind who got advance knowledge of the Mars vampires and saved himself by arranging to get stuck on Phobos where he can be left alone to raise an army of robot berserkers or something #monsterdon

@joewynne once again my bar stock is lacking- So I present- The Alien Blood sucker:
- 1oz 7y rum
-1/2oz Blue Curaçao (from that other movie night, adds the missing orange flavor)
- Bauchant instead of Cointreau
- Dulce Vida "jalepeño Pineapple" Tequila
- Maraschino cherry syrup for the blood drop
Picture incoming- As a happy accident it wound up the same color as the Alien Vampire Blood Queen, and is drinkable, 7/10 would make again... #monsterdon #cocktail

@CactuarJoe "Planet of the Living Doritos" Absolutely needs to be green-lit. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Thanks for hosting @Taweret!

Did we ever find out what happened to Tony left behind on Phobos? #Monsterdon

"Oh my god... several astronauts have died... this has gone completely off the rails, but at least the ship made it home..." #Monsterdon

The hero we need. #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

For those of you scrolling through your timeline, you're about to hit a big mass of #Monsterdon postings about Queen of Blood.

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 gear & 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.

In retrospect, I like the really casual attitude to work phones in this movie— twice we saw someone try to place a call, very understandably freak out because there was no answer, and then the person finally answered like "oh hey, I was busy"

#Monsterdon

@foolishowl group watch text based MST3K #Monsterdon

One more thing I want to say about tonight's movie: it's gonna suck for that dude who was left behind on Phobos when the rescue ship shows up in a week and it's just full of Alien Vampire Eggs by the time it gets there. #Monsterdon

@plaidtron3000 meatier, calling spaceship meatier come in “oh sorry Paul, i was just in the other room ‘laying some space vampire eggs’” uhhh Roger that #monsterdon

@plaidtron3000 "Oh hey, that one tasted ketchupy, they must have Canadians here too" #Monsterdon

Oh wait hold on... they forgot about tony who is still stuck on that moon...
#monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

"Let's touch earth. And feel sunshine on our faces again."

Way ahead of their time

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe Queen of the COOL RANCH #monsterdon #queenofblood

#monsterdon something i was screaming at the screen:

blood is (basically) our body’s way of infusing food into liquid form so it’s more easily transportable across the body. in order to imitate her food source so she stops sustaining herself on their blood, they’d have to infuse the food she won’t eat (because it’s solid) into the water she will drink (because it’s liquid)

turns out we have a device for that: it’s called a blender.

anyway, that was fun! goodnight! :blobcatnight:

(Kids in the Hall voice) I just can't stop thinking about Tony, wondering where he could be, who he is with, what is he thinking, is he thinking of me, and whether he'll ever return someday…
#Monsterdon

@foolishowl it's a weekly event where we watch a monster movie and use the #monsterdon hashtag to watch+post along. everyone hits play at the same time and watches a movie decided by a poll run by @Taweret (thanks for organizing this weekly!)

@foolishowl old B-movies watched separately but together. Decentralized, if you will. And then riffed via Mastodon. #monsterdon is love.

@bunnyhero Oh yeah, a family-sized Popamatic! #monsterdon

Did they ever get Tony off Phobos? #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

Can someone explain #monsterdon to me?

@annathepiper And Laura the space lady wasn't just along to get rescued. That there is shocking #monsterdon

@Zerofactorial i kept thinking of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=780js9J42Q8 #monsterdon

@jonny @annathepiper Their shortcoming was being entirely too calm at the end #monsterdon

I can't believe my boyfriend would cheat on me by getting his blood sucked by someone else!!!

#Monsterdon

The egg effect is shockingly the best thing in the movie. Outside of some of the stolen Russian space special effects.
#Monsterdon #QueenofBlood

You know, that was a pretty big assumption those were eggs. Maybe that's just how she poops. And ya'll are gonna go putting it in your hot dog casseroles? #monsterdon #queenofblood

@annathepiper completely remarkable we didn't get 'use of locks, barricades, or guards' and 'man tells woman to calm down' #monsterdon #monsterdonBingo

@cheribaker @Taweret I think "Smoking or drinking" is covered by sipping at a plastic straw flask thing #monsterdon

@trixter @Taweret Feel like we should get shirts printed up or something though. Oh well, I admit I voted for it #monsterdon

@plaidtron3000 That's definitely some Toho Science right there tho', I'll give it that #Monsterdon

@yatsu A better title for the movie, TBH. #Monsterdon

Best concept, if not the best line of the film. "Hemophilia means she must be royalty!" Able to leap to conclusions even superman wouldn't be able to do in a single bound! #monsterdon #queenofblood

@trixter YEAH, it's like the Dr. Farraday thing, you could feel it hovering in potentia and then.. NOTHING. We were ROBBED. #Monsterdon

@yatsu Not so much a credits sequence as a list of people headed to the stocks to be pelted with rotten fruit #Monsterdon

@aprilfollies Maybe they have to be straight? Doctor Farraday knows more research is imperative #monsterdon

THE END
?

#Monsterdon #QueenofBlood

@blogdiva "Life, finds a way" #WrongMovie #monsterdon #WashesFingersOverAndOver

@jonny It's not over until the fat lady fucks off into the ocean. #Monsterdon

So the lesson of this movie is that scientists are irresponsible morons?
#Monsterdon #QueenofBlood

@blogdiva I bet they'd be good bait if you want to go catfishing #monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow @Taweret Yeah, the Soviet SFX were quality #monsterdon

thanks as always @Taweret , an exceedingly odd one :) #monsterdon

That was some cheesy space cheese. Orbtastic! Thanks for hosting @Taweret! #Monsterdon

Bad ending, but fun watch. Loved all those Soviet era space effects. Thanks again @Taweret! for hosting! I'm going back to The Cone and writing some better ending treatments. #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

With all the talk at the end about feeling the Sun on their faces, I kinda hoped our astronauts would discover they were vampires now too. #monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

Well, that sure was a movie that was signed off on and made. Thanks for hosting @Taweret@octodon.social!

#monsterdon

Dude what are you gonna do with those eggs? That is a very wicked smile... I think some Egon style mood slime studying is gonna happen. Ewww.
#Monsterdon #QueenofBlood

@annathepiper Movie should've ended with alien tadpoles on lox, with a schmear. #Monsterdon

I liked the end where they gave the extra the direction "sorta shake this cookie sheet a little so it looks like they're alive." #Monsterdon

Oh, I like the end credits #monsterdon

You know what would have been a better ending than that? ANYTHING! #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

That's a wrap on #Monsterdon. That was surely one of the movies of all time.

Thanks as always to @Taweret for sending out the #MonsterdonAlert

@yatsu Hopefully Dr. Faraday will just get bit #monsterdon

Basil Rathbone is excited to eat alien eggs! Delightfully delicious!
#Monsterdon #QueenofBlood

I have 16 minutes left, how can this plot POSSIBLY tie up in 16 minutes lol

#Monsterdon

Laura James transitions and just reverses her names. #Monsterdon

etiner etiner bo betner #monsterdon

this extremely lax spacefaring society deserves it frankly #monsterdon

THAT'S IT!!?? That wasn't even an ending. Jello molds and CUT okay.. just assume everyone on earth is dead in a week. #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

Are these aliens anything to worry about? They seem to only hypnotize people one at a time, and they sure seem like they're vulnerable to the ultimate human defense: bullets. #Monsterdon

And here are the names of the persons responsible. #monsterdon

So mad that "THE END" didn't have a question mark fade in. #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

They don't have a platter of pulsating orbs in Soviet special effects, by gods!! Go USA!!

#QueenOfBlood
#Monsterdon`

They really lingered on that final shot of the pulsating eggs #Monsterdon

And how's Tony doing?

#monsterdon
