@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
oh I love the compound eyes, very cool
"They can't tolerate heavy doses of UV" are they related to the aliens from Signs that also picked Earth despite not being able to tolerate water?? #Monsterdon #seedpeople
If it bleeds sap we can kill it.
#Monsterdon #Seedpeople
I want to play Classic Concentration on that old computer
Most things "can't tolerate heavy doses of ultra violet light" it kills DNA!
Okay, but there's a lot of UV in space compared with on Earth. (well unless you're far from a star)
This was written by someone who read about the panspermia theory while on some adult substance(s).
#Monsterdon
"Seeds which were sown on the winds of the Universe" i dunno. That line might be a little too good for this one. #Monsterdon #SeedPeople
Wait the gun proves he's human?
Uh. Ok.
#monsterdon
lol, 'plants are the most cunning and savage of all life forms'
if Doc was really smart he would hole up in a tanning booth instead of a cave
If I'm counting nearly indistinguishable dead white male characters right, I have a Bingo.
Thanks @cherizilla !
Give βem the old light-n-chop
Denim shirt AND denim jeans? Itβs the 90βs!
The director is having everyone grab everyone else.
"Now you shake him"
"Now he shakes you"
"Now you shake both of them!"
Brad's on his way to die in Racoon City
Brad, Randall Flagg is here to see you
"I'm not gonna run away this time"
brother is your entire plan not to run away from this place, was that not the point of the last scene
Brad is molting.
EDIT: "No. It's Frasier."
#Monsterdon
I was not expecting to have mostly called it on the video quality
That was waaaay more of his budgie-smugglers than we needed to see.
I've never wished I was watching The Happening before today
Fear not! The Denim Cavalry arriveth! #monsterdon #seedpeople
"Is this some elaborate ruse to get into my bed?"
It wasn't, but now that you mention it....
that way the lead instantly flies into a rage is believable for a man who wears only denim
Oh hey some computer graphics. Kinda. That one shot took a week and cost $7000.
#Monsterdon
Yeah better save those effects for the airbrushed pixels VHS filter
Papa was a rolling stoneβ¦
Oh wow, that morphing.....I don't know what is real anymore...
Can we uh not use the word Daddy here? #monsterdon
Apparently "testa" is a thing, but it's more commonly called "seed coat" #monsterdon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed#Seed_coat
love how those things fly....
That video is going to be so dim and out of focus
If you say another word I'm going to have a mental breakdown and scream.
I swear I saw this in the other room!
*doesn't scream*
What the crap lady? You promised us a scream and a mental breakdown!
@xerozohar yeah well I done hurd they was a giant chicken
Hey I heard the meteorites are seeds
I love the "found an old diary that explains things" trope. #monsterdon
STOP FLIRTING YEESH
It's The Blair Critters Project
How did he not get killed by that monster?
Go on man, make love to the opened egg, FOR SCIENCE!
Fine, just touch it with your bare hands, then. #Monsterdon #SeedPeople πΎπΏπ₯
Next: Hold your face real close to it.
Sure, tickle the seedpod, it's gone well for everyone else who's done that so far. #Monsterdon
Girl you ain't sneakin' nowhere with that big ass camera
that flashlight is doing nothing while those stage lights are on.
Okay I do like this shot through darkness to the Flammable Liquid sign. W/e DoP gave us that, thank you; I see you tried. #Monsterdon
@xerozohar Small blessings :P #Monsterdon
This movie was funded by the organic food lobby it seems. #Monsterdon

Doing a tour of duty in a hegemonizing swarm
#monsterdon "Stronger than five kinds of monkey piss!"
Five kinds! Powerful stuff.
Is it "Doc Roller" or "Doc Cruller?"
Because I sure could go for a nice donut right about now.
Nice P100 half-mask
So, the drunk PhD with a gun is the sane guy on the movie?
#Monsterdon
#seedpeople1992
βThis was the goal of the leaf and the rootβ
Some writer thought they really did something with this little speech #Shakespeare #Monsterdon
Testa? Are they trying to keep this PG??
In some level this rteminds me of next week's #FridayThrillerClub feature, a bit lower level. #monsterdon
I don't think holding a gun or wearing a cash register makes you "Bullet-proof"
I absolute hate the lead character's wardrobe
The Alien's behaviour is further proof that the only aliens that will come to this world are sex tourists, in this case 'exposure fetishists'
