This was waaaay better than I expected from my vague memories of it as a kid. Then again mosty of what I recalled was the Seedpeople monster puppets, and in a few weeks that is probably all I will think about once again. But solid 3/5.
#Monsterdon #Seedpeople
Well, they tried to be Critters *and* Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and they failed at both.
As always, thanks to @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla for the bingo card, @JoeWynne for the trivia, @randy_s for the drink recipe, @ryan for the live stream, @paco for data analysis, @combatwombat for the replay, and all of you for making it awesome!
π¦MONSTERDON Goodbye!
Pods, creatures, goo and slime β ingredients for an enjoyable Sunday night! You all in the Real-Time Film Analysis Squad were funnier than the script yet again. Have a denim week!
Must thank
β€οΈ @Taweret for hosting tonight's seedy silliness. You put the goo in good time.
π
±οΈ @cherizilla for the Bingo card! My favorite: "Ignoring Obvious Dangers" Evergreen
πΈ@randy_s for taking on the MonsterdonDrink
#monsterdon I can't believe there was a poster with naked bodies, a plant with Every Possible Genital, and THIS was the movie
Tom. The hillbilly farmer told you not to breathe the herbicide.
I appreciate a movie that ends on an up note. Life, uh, finds a way!
Do the zombies have the plant in them? Or are they just doing what the actual plant people say? Is that weird thing with Heidi's throat just the actress's liposuction wattles? Why was there never a sequel?
THESE & MORE QUESTIONS WILL NOT BE ANSWERED.
Thanks @Taweret & the gang for the fun!
Now let me just make sure that sun lamp is unplugged...
Possibly least engaging movie yet.
Derivative enough that there's no novelty value in bizarre writing;
competently executed enough that you're not kept on your toes by bizarre decisions.
Nothing particularly redeemable about it to make it memorable.
R.I.P. little seedling. #monsterdon #seedpeople
You know, I usually find 50s monsterdon selections kinda boring, but this one is much worse than many older movies we've watched #monsterdon #seedpeople
Wait, where is the retwisting the twist ending post-credits scene?
O I am tempted by Waxwork ][ #Monsterdon
So, at least it ended.
#monsterdon
#seedpeople1992
Thanks everyone for it. Your comments, (and not the movie) makes this event a really great start for the week
love you all guys. You are better than therapy (or at least cost less).
hashtag mutual aid intermission #Monsterdon
Granted I was kinda expecting from the beginning it would only be the FBI agent that was a Seedpersonage who would get his head bashed in with an axe or something. So full on dark ending even if sloppily executed was fine by me.
#Monsterdon #Seedpeople
Didn't make it.
@everyday_light It's questionable whether that even counts as an "end"
Another fun time at the olde #monsterdon
TY all!

#seedpeople
well, Mrs Santiago and the seedmonsters were the only ones I liked so I guess that's a happy ending!
Thanks to @Taweret for hosting, @JoeWynne for trivia, and @cherizilla for bingo (which I did not win dangit). Next week maybe I'll be luckier!
And most importantly, thanks to all you #Monsterdonians for making it fun!
On the first Sunday of every month, the #ReMonsterdon watch party will show a #Godzilla film. There will be no vote, just the glorious rule of Their Kaijuness!
So next Sunday 7th June 19.00 UTC, we'll have γ΄γΈγ© (Godzilla)(1954), the Japanese original (96 minutes). The OG (Original Godzilla).
Any Raymond Burrs showing up **will** be turned away!

Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting! See you next week, unless you are joining in on the double feature....
Looping By Superloopers #monsterdon
like, why did i have to watch to the end?
#Monsterdon #SeedPeople
Satisfying, if predictable ending. Thanks for filling in the details, dude π. #Monsterdon
Hmm. It sort of peaked β climaxed, I should say β with that early spooge attack.
Okay I thought the Fed was going to murder him as a prologue to like CIA weaponization of the seed crites but no, he's just a seedpeople.
NORMA JEAN oh Austin? #Monsterdon
Wow. My question is: will the aliens continue to replicate denim clothes into the future?
They should, under no circumstances, ever be allowed to touch electrical stuff.
OK i think the explosion counts as a car crash #monsterdon #seedpeople1992
not a lot of monster flicks with 100% cast kill rates huh π₯΄
YESSSSSSSSSS. Dude gets "pollinated" by the aliens.
#Monsterdon
o k
And the good guys lose, the end.
Well, that certainly was a thing that happened. LOL!
I wish I could have caught more of that, but I don't feel I missed a lot with not being able to. Heh! :)
Thanks as always to @Taweret for putting all this together.
Well, I got distracted by a second screen about 20 minutes ago. The alien plants won??? I guess thatβs one way to end the movie
Well gosh. Who could have seen THAT coming! Thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting. That one really mostly left me scratching my head. Have a great week Beautiful Mutants and get some sun! #Monsterdon #SeedPeople
And my favorite kind of ending, woohoo! #Monsterdon
I mean honestly it would have been a twist ending Mr FBI wasn't an alien
#monsterdon
Oooh bad ending! Neat!
#Monsterdon
@Taweret thank you! π± #monsterdon
i mean, there is a long and storied history of "Take Three Movies and Smash Them Into One Movie" but like, i'm literally still watching this one, and i'm struggling to remember what happened.
Turns out, we're the real monsters for choosing this.
It's no Invasion Of The Body Snatchers but, for what it was, it was not the worst.
Did she put the truck on autopilot????
#Monsterdon
Meh? I had lost sympathy for Tom at this point.

#seedpeople
what?
And that's the story of how the Seedpeople took over the planet.
-fin
#Monsterdon #SeedPeople
Oh, thank gods itβs over!
#monsterdon WHAT A SHOCKING TWISnah I expected the Fed was a seedpeople the whole time
At least it wasn't quite as sudden as usual...
I
Fucking
Guess
This is the most boring action scene of all time #monsterdon #seedpeople
I see now why Weems believed him, I guess. #Monsterdon
Invasion of the Body Snatchers Terrifying Noise.gif
Fireball down the mountain. Toast those alien seeds.
#Monsterdon
Debatable I guess
#Monsterdon #SeedPeople
Oh at least they used Electrocuted correctly
This agent is gonna kill Tom, I'm calling it.
@ramsey No one! Hope, dispair is driving the truck. #Monsterdon #SeedPeople πΎπΏπ₯
Oh hey they blew up a real truck. The do have a budget.
#Monsterdon #Seedpeople
That blowed up! It blowed up real good!
#monsterdon HELL YEAH a real car explosion
#Monsterdon βοΈ π± π π± πββ‘οΈ π± π π½ π±
#seedpeople
that looked like a scene from a Toonces sketch
Finally some goddam explosions!
Yay fire!!! now the seeds will spread :)
So now the seeds are explosive?
Ms. Santiago is not to be trifled with. Alien or no.
#Monsterdon
Brad is almost useless
#monsterdon #seedpeople1992
And there went most of the movie budget. #Monsterdon #SeedPeople
plot twist: Mrs Santiago isn't an alien mimic, she's a psychic who knows how the rest of the town is going to vote in 2016
Go go cutest Seedpeople! Hug him to death!
#Monsterdon #Seedpeople
Tom in the action cardigan #Monsterdon
The Housekeeper Katamari seems smarter than the rest of the seed people
Who is driving the truck?
Look out it's the (suspenseful orchestral music continues)!
You need some cable-grow.
#monsterdon
so do they like, just have the alien dudes living inside them still? just a lil uv puts em to sleep or something?
#Monsterdon βοΈ π± π π± πββ‘οΈ π± π π½ π±
#seedpeople
if only Tom's action cardigan were Ryan Gosling's fox sweater this film would have been worth it
Mrs Santiago isn't one of them.
She's a collaborator.
#Monsterdon #SeedPeople
The creature designs do have a lot of personality, I'll give them that.
Mmmmmm fruit salad #Monsterdon #seedpeople
The housekeeper isn't still possessed, she's just really never liked this town. #Monsterdon
RIP Doc. Gave his life to kill some decorative zucchinis.
#Monsterdon #Seedpeople
#monsterdon this thing is full of corn niblets!
Looks like fruit salad #Monsterdon
Good thing Tom wore his Action!Cardigan! #Monsterdon #seedpeople
What a wimby shotgun squib
Were Heidi & Brad fucking under there? #Monsterdon
Be careful, I've heard it said that you can't kill a cactus with a shotgun or something.
#Monsterdon #SeedPeople
But I thought you can't shoot a cactus!
#Monsterdon #SeedPeople
you put the gun in the coconut, you blow it all-ll up
