that wallpaper is a bit much....
Wow, that almost-getting-run-over stunt looked INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS
Is that a white Bronco???
#Monsterdon
I assume our plot will involve that long pointless scene with the herbicide soon. They're not telegraphing that at all.
Daddy wants to talk to you! Let's roll, baby!
"Tom! Make like a tree and get outta here!"
Looks like standard inn-keeper nightwear.
@Binder So *thats* why their produce tastes weird.
#Monsterdon
"Sprouts" This is how the grocery chain was named. For this film. Remember it when you shop there. #Monsterdon
Pardon me while I arti-choke
Seed Unboxing vids
"My God, it's styrofoam and rubber"
I like how various monsters take a run at people, but then nobody says anything to anyone about it.
Barred Owl is going nuts. Thatβs way to frequent for repeated hoots
@Binder who else would have headgear like that on tap #monsterdon
UV lights? Must be a weed farm.
lol, I just hate his outfit so much, when he tries to act it just makes it worse.....who is this guy, the producer's son or something?
Ah, herbicide. The secret weapon.
Propagator emeritus of planet earth? Is that a title now? #Monsterdon
some intense acting going on in this scene /s
"You're the guy that went to college, you should have been smart enough to think of something."
I wonder what the seedpeople are doing right now.
Anyone got bad poetry on the bingo card
(so far the sweet and spicy cones are going down my throat like a conveyor belt, only breaking to post wit on the Monsterdon)
#monsterdon Getting some Wilfred Brimley vibes from the crazy doctor, from The Thing from John Carpenter. βNobody is gettin out of heeeeeere!β
pickups, double denim, the only non-white person is viewed with suspicion.fuck this town
vee hick el
"I meant it when I said your smile lights up the room."
"Tom, I...think you're thinking of Doc, he's got that fluorescent light hat."
βYou got Critters in my Body Snatchers!β
EVIL PINECONE
PLANT A TREE MOTHERFUCKER
Close Encounters of the Plant Kind
@bunnyhero going for a polycule! #Monsterdon
Hope you don't have a peanut allergy
More of a ding than a dong
Yeah I was done with that scene too
racist white girl and her gigantic camera .......oh good, the aliens got her!
They're doing the Critter ball roll!
aww damn, she survived.
Gigantic video recorder
Acting weird or barely acting at all?
@overholt I agree... however I was outside poking a snake with a stick an hour before movie time. Turns out it was already dead and not a tentacle poking out of a rocky outcropping.
#Monsterdon #Seedpeople
We've all been there
here comes the jizz...
Creepy music cue. Thank god, that means no more dialogue. #monsterdon
I knew this movie was gonna pickup
maybe she's just sick of your White family nonsense, hence the dead eyes. That dad worries me....
...and now a cop?
Al; these farmers can die in alien jizz
If you're writing a movie please save the planet and leave off the pointless framing device. Your audience can figure out what is happening without a voice over. #monsterdon
I already do not like the main lead...
#Monsterdon i want this man's lavender sweater
How ironic a town with a Space name gets invaded by aliens, some top misdirection there. /s
We're mixing up our genres here. You can't have the feds coming in arguing jurisdiction in a medical procedural. #monsterdon
lol "Government Conspiracy" activated
I believe that this is a Memorial Hospital
With this music I feel like I should be commanding my units in a late 90s turn-based game. #monsterdon
This reminds me of Alien War at the Trocodero in the 90s!
Looks more "Matrix" outside or "Alien" than anything Kubrick would do.
We're doing Alien now?
You have to admire the amount of genres they pack into this thing....
"If you don't believe in this, the it's not really happening"
Not going to work Zack, you're trapped in the Waxverse
Why have they gone for a 1930s vibe when Frankenstein was set in the 19th Century?
"You've been affected by the time leap"
Oh of course, it's time travel shenanigans, isn't it?
The guy playing Victor Frankenstein is a British actor whose name I can't remember right now...
I want a collection of strange artefacts found by adventures, but I don't want to travel or pay for it
@strangefour I'd go with "I didn't like the ending because it felt unearned". Like if it had gone more invasion of the body snatchers / giving evidence of a much larger operation I'd have been fine with it.
@combatwombat @Mikal He will be soon. He will be.
So, him and his ex don't get back together and there's no way to un-seed people?
Bummer.
#monsterdon
It even has a classic sudden ending, a #monsterdon classic! Thanks @Taweret for hosting as usual
@whiskeysailor for reals
i mean @RobynGoodfellow literally said "that [FBI] guy's a seed person" in the first 90 seconds of the movie
And they're all pod people. Naturally.
#monsterdon
there was too much denim in that film and it almost put me off my snack....
Thank god we're back to the shitty framing device. #monsterdon
And the twist ending that we were expecting since about two minutes in.
No coffee, no smoking.
the ending created more questions than it answered, in a flawed way, not a mysterious way...
I'm not gonna lie I kept zoning out whenever the creatures weren't on screen
ty for joining, everyone!!
Well that was a happy movie. #Monsterdon
Vehicle falling off a cliff and exploding! EXCELLENT! We need more of that in our #Monsterdon movies
So like, was Heidi re-controlled?
#monsterdon for all inherent badness, the aesthetics of the thing, the dialog, the fact that it was ADR'd in an empty warehouse, it does have a coherent plot, kind of. The monsters and effects are pretty good considering this had to have had the budget of a small soft-core porn production.
Ok, so there were only three real "aliens" and the rest were Renfields.
lol, tough luck for the Doc, yeah?
That exploding car shot was 90% of the budget. #monsterdon
Yay - the classic tumble down the mountainside explosion scene.
lol, so it's only the Queen that can turn into a hairy bollock?
Joy to the world!
lol, just through a loaded gun around like a golf club
Checkov's hatchet, I guess
(and herbicide)
Movie electrical engineering: I flipped a thing and then some wires happened.
#monsterdon
"They're running very slowly after us!"
I'm an hour late, but 5 minutes in this soundtrack seems very 80s #Terminator ripoff. π
So the FBI guys decides we need to drop a UV Nuke on Comet Valley...
Need to call Blade for some UV flashbangs
I'm still not following why the plant creatures don't like uv tho
THEY'RE FIXED NOW????? #MONSTERDON
I don't think you should stare directly into those lights....
mΓΆth moment
RIP weed farmer
whoa! demin dude pulls a gun on that farmer!
Did he just buy that pickup? I don't believe any farmer would let it be in that shiny of a condition. #Monsterdon
So uh, how do they look human?
Sorry they just do, because reasons.
#Monsterdon
i wonder what the housekeeper woman is up to #monsterdon
