would you like to explain how a naked dead reverend big ed hurley ended up shot int the face in your living room to the cops

#monsterdon

really? the gotcha corpse? really?!

#monsterdon

It was Master Splinter the whole time!

#monsterdon #silverbullet1985

Okay the hair going back in the skin was kind of a cool shot. #monsterdon

Whoops we just killed a man.
On the plus side the reverse transformation looks really great.
#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

Okay, wait, we've already established that a goddamn bottle rocket did lasting damage to this werewolf. I feel like regular bullets would still be worth having in that gun.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

This much silver became this much bullet.

#monsterdon

Okay it's possible to say the title of the movie TOO many times.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

"Me and nan were just like you guys. Hunting werewolves, the whole thing."

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Of course the movie's climax will be during the hunter's moon

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

"And then Red gave us a gun! He was a good uncle like that." #monsterdon

The silver is for plugging werewolves not plot holes

#Monsterdon

yo what if there's multiple werewolves and each of them did a murder or two? maybe this other cop is a werewolf too.

#monsterdon

Cop: also a wolf

I have two wolves inside of me and they were both poorly written by Stephen King

#Monsterdon

@rickpelletier Full Body Werewolf was my other stripper name.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

OMG. The Right Reverend Exposition gives his sermon on his crimes.

#monsterdon

HA HA HA MEDDLING CHILDREN XD XD XD XD #monsterdon

Well, he's not a were-drag racer anyway. #monsterdon

lol, there's always a condemned bridge or one under construction when there's a car chase!

#Monsterdon

Kid pulls into the service station..."Hey, she's burnin' a lot of oil, think you can do a quick ring job?" #MotorcycleJokes

#monsterdon

Should have known it was the priest when he said “Yiff yiff”

#monsterdon #silverbullet1985

Oh shit, he's also a WERE-ROMULAN! #monsterdon

Okay now the priest hilariously looks like when David Hasselhoff played Nick Fury.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Back when social media was letters cut out of a newspaper.

#Monsterdon

She's right to say no to men wanting to give her a ride though, Final Girl moves...

#monsterdon

lol, Gary Busey has no recollection of how he got into bed....

#Monsterdon

And THAT'S why Jeff is a worthwhile party member. #monsterdon #earthbound

wait, the motorcycle kills its creator if someone gets hurt on it? that's a strange plot development

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

lol, the insane look as Gary Busey unveils the death chariot he made for Corey Haim

#Monsterdon

This kid has very strong feelings about tits.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

"Now remember everyone, there's bear traps literally every 3 feet out here in Bear Trap Woods."

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

I do love when hunters are caught in their own traps, feels like justice...

#Monsterdon

comic relief by the writing team who was too violent for Looney Tunes or Tom & Jerry

#monsterdon

SHERIFF: I’m no J Edgar Hoover… I just share his same passion for wearing women’s clothes.

ANGRY MOB: [in unison] WE DON’T KINK SHAME!

#monsterdon #silverbullet1985

You don't need to explain to people in a small town what a lynch mob is. Clearly that was for the audience's benefit.. #monsterdon

i'm pretty sure the law is about to be the mauled to death by a werewolf

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

"Okay, now when you find your son's mangled corpse, act like you just stubbed your toe real bad. Annnnnd ACTION!"

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

#monsterdon Okay, to hell with Pluto, morons, hopped on with @miru's stream. I can't believe it actually worked. I'm shocked! Took my dorky iphone 13 to start it, and the crap Samsung never works, but now it does. Inexplicable! But I'll take it!

See? Marty is fine. He's climbing trees, he's saving kites, his wheelchair has a 600cc Harley Davidson engine. Life is good.

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

What the hell, is this town *all* drunks? It is Milwaukee and I didn't notice?

(That was my Chicago coming out, sorry Milwaukee, you're beautiful!) #Monsterdon

is everybody super flushed in this movie or is it just this print? #monsterdon

After a scene where some cops don't do much, and another scene where some townpeople complain about taxes, we cut to wheelchair boy who is zooming along in his motorchair, escorting a girl home because she is scared of all the mystery murders and strange wolf noises.

She kisses him and he zooms off, then the girl's dad grumbles how how "cripples" should be electrocuted because otherwise they end up on welfare, so we're probably not supposed to like him. Maybe a wolf will eat him.

#monsterdon

I wonder how Gary Busey

....you know what, I'm just gonna stop there

#Monsterdon

lol

"The Peacemaker"

this is human politics

#Monsterdon

is she going to be bosom friends with the werewolf?
#monsterdon

I have been super busy and didn't check in much today, so I was UNPREPARED for PLUTO! 😖

#Monsterdon

Silver Bullet wasn't really bad. It was very good bad. But I still feel like I should watch an actually good movie now.
#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

@strangefour I'm not. And it's awesome.

#monsterdon #wrongfrogs #monstermiru

@bryanhowell It was no Chopping Mall, but yeah, it wasn't awful. #monsterdon

I award Silver Bullet 3 out of 5 out-of-place American accents. It was fine. Not boring or irritating, but nothing to write home about. A quintessentially average werewolf movie.

Having the weird uncle and the snooping kids use various talents to defeat the wolf priest probably kept the film interesting enough to watch.

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe I love this film! Thanks, #Monsterdon folks. :)

And as the werewolf sets gently in the west, we end our broadcast day and thank you for joining us here, on Werewolf Light FM.

As always there's just one last thing to do before you leave the theater:

Was Stephen King's SILVER BULLET (1985) the WORST #monsterdon movie of the year?

And so they fucked off into the 80's.

Not bad TF effects for this time period. I was afraid the wolf would be just a hairy dude or Smokey the Bear. Nope, wolfiness was at least attempted.

I can also see the Stephen King influence here. I haven't read the book, but not the first time a movie has butchered his books.

Thanks @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon

<Da da da da jaws music da da exorcist da da john carpenter synth sting>

You can't scare us by threatening Jane, she's alive in voiceover.

Hairless swimmer guy becomes hairy werewolf, & reverse. Kinda mid SFX.

Red got scratched up pretty bad, is he gonna get infected & turn?

How are they planning on disposing of Big Ed's body, & patching the wall, before mom & dad get back?

NONE OF THESE QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED.

Insted, pan flute & piano.

#monsterdon #silverBullet

should have had Marty being bit and they have to kill him, why else was the Narrator talking like he was gone?

#Monsterdon

"I love you too Marty. Good night."
Those are some dumb final words for a werewolf movie.
#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

Werewolf looks good and bad at the same time. The head shape and muzzle length is too big and short and round. Too much like a cartoon bear. The rest of it looks great.
#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

And Gary Busey gracefully ends his career. #monsterdon

Bingo!

#monsterdon

Sounds like the werewolf sat on the pitch bend wheel

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Ahhh, the way old TV stations would just go off the air... Those were better days, when the endless stream of bullshit *actually did stop*

In a well-written story, Big Ed would bite Marty and restore full use of his limbs as part of being a werewolf, and induct him into the Bookhouse Boys to help fight back the darkness #Monsterdon

This guy has made silver bullets before....

#Monsterdon

Scenario: You're a gun shop owner and Gary Busey walks into your shop wanting silver bullets

#Monsterdon

Oh. @miu burped on us. Or atleast one me.
#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

Give the children guns

#monsterdon #silverbullet1985

@Taweret we're in store for some draggin-out

#Monsterdon

you SEE

you MEDDLING little SHIT

😂

#monsterdon

Oh I totally forgot: the poker game qualifies as "A fun time, interrupted" which I think gives me a legitimate bingo 🤞

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet #MonsterdonBingo

Metaphor: The Movie

#Monsterdon

Where's Nancy Drew when you need her. #monsterdon

Kid pushed the smoke screen button! :D

#monsterdon

Few things are as sinister as Everritt McGill dressed as a priest, with an eye patch and stalking teenage boys...mercifully only to eat them

#Monsterdon

Marty time to show that furry priest what your chair is made of.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Okay but I would read the hell out of "The Hardy Boys vs Reverand Werewolf"

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

I'm too old be playing Hardy Boys meet Reverend Werewolf!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985
Sure, insult his common sense right after you give him fireworks and tricked out his wheel chair.

Don’t shame him just because you discovered his fursona!

#monsterdon #silverbullet1985

Rev Nick Fury

#Monsterdon

Cool eye patch though.

#Monsterdon

aw man, have you gotten any Sick Room Needs recently? So suck.

#monsterdon

"What are we gonna do?"

Well, have an adventure just like the Goonies I think! #monsterdon

@wohali This has captured my attention more than the movie

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

When has going with a priest to lay down in his parlor ever been a bad idea? Never, obviously.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Eh. The bear trap was funnier. Hey, you think the bear trap guy survived that night because he had to go back to the car instead of into the obvious werewolf trap? #monsterdon

"unwrap me Teenage girl, I don't mind"

#Monsterdon

"Unfortunately, it was Pirate Week in town, so literally everyone was wearing an eyepatch."

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Whoa right in the eye? Nice shot Marty.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

@bryanhowell they get the werewolf to ride the motorcycle and- wait no hang on

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Back in real-life Marty is sad that his friend died and the girl he liked left town, but then his dad cheers him up by giving him a giant motorcycle wheelchair that is decked out with fires and Loud Pipes, which he thinks is very cool and so he drives off doing wheelies on the road and the dad is like "uh oh i hope he doesn't crash his cool wheelchair i hope i didn't make a mistake."

#monsterdon

"I haven't even shown you the best part; push this button, and twin 50mm cannons emerge from the chassis, here."

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

the vigilante mob searches the woods at night and then gets stuck in fog and eaten by a werewolf. the next day or so everyone is back in church and singing Amazing Grace because more townsfolk have been eaten.

The priest is like "man this is tough i dunno what to tell you" and Captain Eggplant is like "there is no comfort only private jealous" and then the priest is like "um... the bible and..." but then it's night and the sheriff and the congregation all turn into werewolves.

#monsterdon

The fact that it was a dream does explain the creepy way everyone was swaying as they sang.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

The minister picked the wrong day to try LSD. #monsterdon

I was preaching in the church, late one night, when my eyes beheld an eerie sight

#Monsterdon

Look I'm gonna be honest, I would NOT be in town for church at this point. I'd be nine states over.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

lol, blood soaked sex doll....

#Monsterdon

Let's walk right towards that smoke machine, there!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon 300 angry 80's townies run into the forest, 150 couples come back to town…

My god the dialogue in this movie hurts more than being eviscerated by a werewolf

#monsterdon #Silverbullet
