"OH NO we've wandered out of the woods, into a kung fu stage set, tight walls & fog, & we're gonna die!"

<indeterminate time later>

White people singing "Amazing Grace", doing the wave. Oh god, this IS the scariest movie.

OK, Big Ed, tell us about great deals on comfort.

100% A+ special effects on the monster mob. Like, everything else sucks.

There's, like, 6+ deaths this summer? Why aren't the FBI all over this?

Would werewolves be bipedal?

#Monsterdon

I unironically love that hymn and that was not a good rendition of it. Boo.

Also is that really appropriate funeral-ish music?

#Monsterdon

Hey hey, this church is way too white to be doing call and response. #monsterdon

lol

#monsterdon

Pazuzu would wreck this prick so hard

#Monsterdon

I really enjoy Monsterdon and the film they're doing is one I actually enjoyed in the movie theater when it came out.

So much engagement tonight I can't keep up even just lurking.

Glad people are having fun.

What we're looking for is under the fog! I think we're in an old Cinemax movie, Andy!

#Monsterdon

Black Guy dies first....

#Monsterdon

@bryanhowell ...it was a failed government experiment. the bears learned to avoid them and started throwing them at the townsfolk. worst thanksgiving ever.

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Bobby is going to make lemonade, the coward

#Monsterdon

this is not going to end good is it?
#Monsterdon

Does anyone have the link to the #Peertube instance streaming #Monsterdon? I'm not on my usual devices and am having trouble finding it... It was called something like Mikyu...

I'm not much of a hunter but I do have... certain skills, and one of them is knowing that hunting all bunched up is a great way to shoot somebody you don't intend to after you catch or see nothing at all.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Hahahahahah absolutely zero situational awareness or pointing the flashlights at the ground before you walk on a bear trap. MR. EXTRA.

Bear trap on the guys leg, ugh gruesome.

#Monsterdon

"How do we know we're going the right way?"

"We don't! Yahhhhh!"

RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE

The father is real torn up about...
oh god, sorry, poor choice of words.
#monsterdon

He's STILL wearing that suit?!

#Monsterdon

That's a concerning armband

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

What if it’s Some Kind Of Monster?!

#monsterdon #silverbullet1985

Brady's dad looks like Dave Foley in a bald cap
#monsterdon

"How about if I take the boy home?"

"Red, you're literally so drunk you parked in a tree."

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

slightly out of tune organ

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

@bryanhowell toxic yaoi

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Would you two just shut up and kiss already

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

That bowl cut kid is more focused on that kite than I've ever been focused on anything in my life.

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

Can't stop thinking about that Mac and Me clip...

#Monsterdon

someone in my neighborhood just got elected mayor. they ran unopposed. (yes, really) no one actually cares who the small town mayor is in real life

#monsterdon

extra points for getting impaled on a wood stake on the way down

#Monsterdon

Did the wolf... dig a tunnel under the greenhouse? That seems like a lot of work just for the element of surprise.

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

Captions: Werewolf breathes heavily

Gee thanks spoiler alert jeez

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

That is one suspicious sweater

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

@woe2you i am in fact from the west coast of the US

...you could also check in on #Monsterdon!

lol Chekov's rifles

#Monsterdon

lol, rip the redneck

#Monsterdon

Chekov's stair lift: If a stair lift is introduced in the first act, Corey Haim will use it to slowly escape from a werewolf in the third. #monsterdon #silverbullet1985

So the least ableist character is gary busey? This truly is a horror movie. #monsterdon

Gary Busey is to Christopher Walken as crystal meth is to heoin. #monsterdon

is the kid still at the top of the stairs? is anyone helping him?

#monsterdon

Gary Busey being more cogent than usual!

#monsterdon

How can it be a humans' job to pump what they call 'gas' into your car?

Uh-oh., Gary Busey has entered the chat
#Monsterdon

they sure are getting a lot of use out of that Corel stock music CD

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

the horrible Ableism coming from the girl's old man is setting him up for a werewolf meeting....

#Monsterdon

Tammah! Respect my authoritah!

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

The hot rod wheelchair almost makes you want to be crippled. #monsterdon

Likeable characters are at critical levels and holding steady.

1% ■□□□□□□□□□

#monsterdon

Oh silver bullet is the wheelchair...
Like rosebud is the sled...
Sure, why not.
#monsterdon

Granny's got a gun.
#monsterdon

So many drugs in this film already, accurate though...

#Monsterdon

@Taweret Good point.

#Monsterdon

Cast of characters in this #monsterdon, so far...

Narrator Childe (resents her brother)
Wheelchair Brother (is a jerk)
Climbing Boy (I missed his name and his relevance to anything)
Bickering Parents (1 boy parent, 1 girl parent)
Drunk Track Raking Guy (RIP)
Werewolf (awoo)

why are ten year olds having to buy their own clothes?

#monsterdon

Nice ramp you made for your kid there, Tony Hawk

#Monsterdon

We learn that the narrator is currently a teenage girl in this movie but is narrating it from the far future, so I guess she survives but a lot of other people will die. She starts her story by complaining about her brother who bullied her with a snake.

Maybe's she'll end up as a werewolf and eat her family, who can say?

#monsterdon

Why are there a lot of words appearing in the subtitles that don't seem to be spoken by anyone?

#Monsterdon

Hey whoa whoa whoa I didn't know they'd be sayiong "booger" so frequently where's the MPAA when you need them?

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

Some #monsterdon movies are like "we are gonna hide this monster as long as is humanly possible" and then this one is like "bam werewolf hahahahahaha!"

Marty was the cross I had to bear. The cross made of boogers.

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

Small Town America a creepy hive of monsters?

#Monsterdon

I hope Elvira shows up with a casserole

#Monsterdon

Launching my #monsterdon thread for Silver Bullet (1985) - a movie which I think involves a werewolf. Which is a human that turns into a wolf for reasons. As opposed to a warewolf, which is probably a wolf that sells things.

Anyway, monsterdon is the thing where we watch a monster movie every week and provide quality commentary. You may wish to mute the hash tag if you don't want to see many a post about this topic by me and others. If not, um... enjoy and awoooo???

Oh, a drunk guy in a Stephen King movie, that's new and refreshing. #Monsterdon

Megan Follows
Megan Stops
#Monsterdon

Paramount acquires "being a flesh eating monster"

#Monsterdon

A Stephen King movie would not have been my first choice, but I keep managing to miss the polls somehow.

I used to have a friend who made me watch obscure Stephen King movies, and I've *still* never heard of this one.

Thread commences here.

@ramsey @paco @ryan

still watching over here boss and sober all day long

that was freakin beautiful

#monsterdon #WrongWolf

#monsterdon

The sequel to Silver Bullet features an entire town full of werewolves and a silver bullet machine gun. Also, a silver bat with the words Lunar Avenger carved on it.

thanks again @Taweret for organizing these! i had a great time as always!

night folks

#monsterdon

@Lazarou @Taweret No gods, no werewolves! #monsterdon

@forestine Me too!
#monsterdon
@CactuarJoe

@peribotsarah Bringing new meaning to opening a white claw #monsterdon

is this A E S T H E T I C ?

#monsterdon #WrongWolf

That was like the werewolf movie equivalent of going to a fancy restaurant and getting a tiny amount of food in a giant plate

Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting! See you next week (or maybe for this weirdness happening on @miru )

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

time for MIRU dot MIYAKU dot MEDIA .... the AFTERPARTY

#monsterdon #WrongWolf

Presumably uncle Busey shoots the werewolf using the only silver bullet in 1000 miles. Good thing there happened to be a silversmith gun-nut in town, who was apparently willing to work pro-bono??
#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe Seemed that way. #Monsterdon #SilverBullet #StephenKing 🐺🎥🍿

@bstacey @phooky guess all we have left is PRIVATE JUSTICE #monsterdon

RE: https://mastodon.social/@floatybirb/116513966016824144

To clarify, it’s the Wolfpriest who turns into a hairy naked guy, not Marty

Thank heavens

#Monsterdon

That was fun! Goodnight, Monster people. :godzilla_cool:

#Monsterdon

@rebeld "Sadly, they gave him the Chair before Werewolves came out to the World" #Monsterdon

@phooky Fortunately, the one cop is dead

#Monsterdon

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?

Ok this was bad but in a fun way at least. That’s why I like my 80s Stephen King adaptations. They’re bad but good bad.
Thank you all who chose this, @Taweret for organizing and everyone who joined. Awooo!

#monsterdon #Silverbullet

As we listen to the banging credits music, I just have to say thank you for hosting @Taweret, and thank you to everyone for the wonderful watch party!

This was probably the eightiest movie that ever eightied, but also not nearly as scary as I remember. I suppose not being 11 years old kind of hurt the film's effect on me?

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

I was watching a vaporwave documentary before this and now I'm imagining this credits song slowed down and looped

#monsterdon #SilverBullet

Casting by Jeremy Ritzer. j'accuse.

#monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

@miru Everett McGill got two credits? One for the reverend and one for the werewolf.

#Monsterdon

🎶Here I am

Another grossly creepy child romance brought to you by Stephen King #Monsterdon

Yeah, love ya, nite

🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎶🎶🎶🎶

#Monsterdon

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

and the villain is defeated by a boy with a gun. how 1985 America.

#monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

"Now let's all get super drunk!"

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet

Back in the 1980s wood panel room, we are watching TV when Jane thinks she saw a werewolf outside, that the Uncle looks for but doesn't see, and then thinks the kids are joshing him so he removes the bullet. Then the werewolf appears, slapping the gun out of his hand and we get a classic Monster Vs Furniture Vs Children fight.

#monsterdon

Marty trying to catch the silver bullet

#Monsterdon #SilverBullet1985

Marty is literally a dead-eye. The kid never misses.
