It's too bad the kid (presumably) survived all this only to die from cancer from breathing in all the unfiltered smoke coming out of the back of that thing...
Turns out there's probably a reason wheelchairs don't use gasoline engines.
oh that rocket-shot was even better than I'd hoped, who shows up in town missing an eye I wonder
#monsterdon Oooh, good fleeing music.
π¦MONSTERDON ποΈ
βοΈ TRIVIA BULLET πΊππ«
The producer did not like the original suit, so another, more frightening prop, was created by a new special effects artist, Everett McGill, during production.
The producer did not like the professional dancer used to act in the suit, either, so McGill performed in the suit for most of the movie.
Oh, and he also acted as The Reverend - And he got credit at the end for both characters.
Now do the dragon one that Gary Busey stole from Gandalf. #Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985
Kid's got good aim, I'll give him that.
We've all been there, kid. Down to our last firework when some dude in a bear suit ambles up. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon ok so someone in this town has one eye now
the psycho violins.
it would help if the shots matched
Werewolves are naturally drawn to pyrotechnic displays.
*headshot!*
I started a few mins late. Do we know who the werewolf is yet? #monsterdon
#monsterdon I know the kid's best friend just died, but who lights off fireworks alone?
Now look. Normally I wouldn't be in favor of listening to gary busey... but in this case I'm making an exception. #monsterdon
@ramsey He was due to make a good decision at some point
Smokey the Werewolf doesn't want no forest fires started. #Monsterdon
arm himself with it
@Taweret hey now, he knew enough to back away like 3 inches
Of course drive out the extremely loud wheelchair bike in the middle of the night. No one will know!
Itβs like a Whipoorwill
@apLundell Kid's gonna have good upper body strength. #Monsterdon #SilverBullet #StephenKing πΊπ₯πΏ
@xerozohar Do not bring your evil here. Or those fireworks. #monsterdon
I keep waiting for any single thing to make sense in this movie...
The music as Marty rides out sounds like they couldn't afford the rights to Sultans of Swing.
Nothing pisses off a werewolf more than poor fire safety. #Monsterdon #SilverBullet
Tell the werewolf to kill themselves! Yeah, that will work.
#monsterdon Guys, he can manually move the wheels. He probably didn't start it until he was down the road a bit.
and then the kid pissed off swamp thing
"This is for the good guys! Who don't need the two working limbs they've got!" #monsterdon
I'm sure the flute during the music tension is not at all foreboding #monsterdon
I don't think this werewolf has howled even once, I'm starting to doubt its credentials
Well, I guess that's one way to save on the pyrotechnic budget. π
#monsterdon #SilverBullet #MonsterMiru
This kid is dumber than the A Quiet Place mom. #Monsterdon
We haven't gotten a good look at the werewolf yet have we?
#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985
#monsterdon EYE THERE!!
#Monsterdon π¨ > π ? πΊ ! = π±
was it cooler if your motorcycle left a big trail of smoke in those days?
Turns out the real good guys are the werewolves we met along the way #Monsterdon
So they're heavy sleepers I guess, if that kid can sneak off in a glasspaked motorized wheelchair.
Chuck-wills-widow (a kind of nightjar) singing there!
"This one is for the good guys"
*proceeds to burn down the forest w/ unlicensed pyrotechnics* #Monsterdon
It's too bad John #Rambo didn't wander into this town to get harassed by that Stepfather, I mean, that Sherriff.
We coulda had Rambo vs The Werewolf movie.
(Pretty sure that's a #MortalKombat match. π€)
#monsterdon Is Uncle Red working with the werewolf? Setting out his nephew as bait? Messed up, really.
The kid has already gone against his uncleβs wishes to βstay near the house.β
Hell's OshKosh B'gosh. #monsterdon
Sure, he came down from the window, but how did he climb the tree earlier?
Family doesn't hear that cycle starting up? I mean... not to be un-PC but it's not like he's walking it out the driveway.
Kid I love your initiative but the entire NEIGHBORHOOD is gonna hear when you start that thing up. #monsterdon
I do appreciate this kid's upper body strength.
(upbeat electronic music)
there's a reason most parents won't give their kids explosives and motorcycles
how nice of them to put that tower up there against the house to hold their son's weight while he sneaks out of the house.
me: the congregation all turned into werewolves
husband: *busy prepping dinner, not watching* were any of them hot?
me: not a one
husband: bummer
Silver Bullet moto-wheelchair. Bitchin.
is....is he trying to sneak out.... with the motorcycle chair? are his parents fucking deaf lmao
#monsterdon
Is Gary Busey a Gairwolf?
Cut, we're going to need another take. Corey forgot he can't use his feet to climb. #Monsterdon
"Listen kid, I love you so I built you something that breaks every safety law on earth. Go on, now. Go crazy, kid." #Monsterdon #SilverBullet #StephenKing πΊπ₯πΏ
I once saw Gary Busey at the Alamo. When he left, he shouted "I'm leavin' the Alamo!!!!!" I know he wouldn't have, but part of me really wanted him to yell that when he drove off from that dinner π
#Monsterdon
Chekhov's Rocket
#monsterdon
At least the finale looks like it will be fun
Uncle Red is going to be the next victim of the beast, isn't he?
#monsterdon
I love you, nephew. Hereβs a Ducati wheelchair and a sack of fireworks. Be careful.
@Taweret It's like they wrote like 3 werewolf scenes and then said, "we need some stuff to go around these."
"I want you to have a good time" oh so *that's* why you're leaving #Monsterdon
He is so worried about the kid getting hurt he gives him some fireworks
I wonder what the werewolf is doing right now
I bet they wanted Corey Haim for Mac & Me.
#monsterdon omg are we going to get a chase scene on the silver bullet??!?
#monsterdon I was half-expecting him to give the kid shotguns to mount on the motorcycle. Fireworks are positively pedestrian for this dude.
love how 50% of the dialog in this movie is indecipherable due to running motors
Chekov's rocket #Monsterdon
What's the over/under on the werewolf being shot with one of those fucking giant rockets
"You're gonna have Fourth of July, but you're gonna have it in September"
Oh great timing, this is October π€¦
this is just the movie wasting some time to fill runtime
Two red lights? What is up with that signal?
Holy crap! How did they hide that thing from his mom? #Monsterdon #SilverBullet #StephenKing πΊπ₯πΏ
They put way too much much oil in that thingβs two-stroke mix.
how do they all have the same hair
are they actually all related irl?
#monsterdon
Red is the best uncle #Monsterdon
THEN GIVE THE KID A FREAKINβ HELMET!!!!! #Monsterdon
"pork tartar" sounds dangerous...
They running marked gas in that thing?
#monsterdon
"I'm Gary Busey, nobody gets me" #Monsterdon
"Is that for me?"
Who else would it be for, Marty? #Monsterdon #SilverBullet #StephenKing πΊπ₯πΏ
So is Gary Busey like his uncle or something?
Aaaand everybody else is dead. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon π¨ > π ? πΊ ! = π±
looking forward to seeing Gary the dog
Now Herb... just try to calm down.
Websters Dictionary defines "cocaine" as "an addictive stimulant drug made from the leaves of the coca plant (Erythroxylon coca) which is native to South Amer
#monsterdon
I will never forgive the car lobby for landing us /here/ instead of the world where every kid in the 80s grows up wanting to ride this Silver Bullet around instead. We could have been great!
okay I don't want to watch this kid die that's enough movie for me #monsterdon
Helmets are for boogers.
Drunk uncle custom builds young wheelchair bound nephew a motorcycle-wheelchair, what could go wrong
This is the most period accurate part of the movie yet: give a child a three-wheeler and send them out without a helmet
If you happen to find yourself living in Stephen King's reality, a werewolf is a perfectly viable option for the culprit. π€·ββοΈ
