This fuckin British guy is more clumsy than Mr Bean smh #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon so, like, if you don't know radio etiquette when you're making a movie, just, like, fucking ask.
foley, foley, come in. tell me you're going to do your job for once. tell me, foley
we could put salt in the sewers tho instead of whatever it is we're doing rn
They gave him a pick-axe to open a manhole cover?
#monsterdon I got an idea, let's give the slugs ζ΄»ε
#monsterdon It's not a man-hole, it's a slug-hole. Thanks.
if they're in a cold enough place they could even bring out a salt truck and...
oh someone is paging me saying then the movie would only be five minutes long #Monsterdon
#monsterdon So tight down there. Pam was tight down there, but then she got Mono from Mullet-boy. Poor Pam.
These sewers are huge for such a small town where all there is to do is drink and fuck
They're going to meet at the OLFACTORY? WTF is THAT?!?
Slugs. Why does it always have to be slugs.
British dude responds to the walkie-talkie like he's Dr. Frank-N-Furter from Rocky Horror. Look at that expression on his face.
@jivens you have to admit it's a #monsterdon classic
"yeah mike, i'm here"
this is not the sort of call that would warrant that tone, sir.
#monsterdon
Ooh great, now they have electric killer slugs
#monsterdon
Wait. He's gonna use a torch to cut through an electric wire, have that electrify the water, and just LEAVE? #monsterdon
#Monsterdon you can't OUTRUN ELECTRICITY
Weak ass cable. #monsterdon
OK Pam did NOT deserve that this marks the first human I am sorry for in this #Monsterdon
So will the slugs eventually all combine, and turn into Voltron Slug?
@mmezabet ooof this is gonna be rough
Are the slugs carrying Pam's body away, now?
She was rarin' to go in the boat with Wayne
@CactuarJoe
Movie was breaking all kinds of new ground.
Theyβre gonna put lithium in the sewer and blow sewage all over town. #Monsterdon #slugs
@ohiofi I am always saying this.
Slugs need at least one more victim
#Monsterdon
I'll be glad when everyone in this town is dead.
@nev still wish that guy had gotten eaten though #Monsterdon
We should have flamethrowers for this job.
rapey mullet guy living up to the mullet stereotype
Poor girl is going to be eaten by slugs because of sleazy party dudes, who need to be eaten by slugs but much more slowly, so they can think about how bad they are.
You slugged the wrong teen. #monsterdon
@blue I didn't see a giant beaker, but I did see a 4 L graduated cylinder and yes they do? I think I have one in the bio glassware.
(the fact I can guess the size of that glassware at a glance maybe says weird things about me)
I love when we get a by-the-book #monsterdon movie
Ew.
I miss CHUD. Wonder what those crazy guys are up to. #Monsterdon #Slugs1988
Wait... is this a He Man episode?!?
oh no now they're wearing the same outfit
"...Don, position yourself next to the man hole, and get ready to drop your stuff."
"Wait, what?"
Yes, the "mind games" of clearly stated explicit denial of consent. #monsterdon
what rock did HE crawl out from under? #monsterdon
I'm home! I've followed half the film so far. I saw bloody, slug-covered booty. Nobody's tried salt. I should not have had ice cream. Ready to lock in! #Monsterdon
NO ALTERNATIVE. Like salt. ABSOLUTELY NONE. Not even one, like salt. NOT ONE AT ALL.
How are they going to lure the slugs? Spill hamburger all over the highway?
Teenage Elaine dancing, I see...
@moira I'll allow it
Yes, bait the slugs. Theyβll be here any week now. #monsterdon
"remember kids... what happens to teens who like to party?" #monsterdon
#Monsterdon "My friend died a couple hours ago and I'm upset!"
"Just don't think about it!"
Fuckin' sociopaths I tell ya'!
I say we take off and nuke the place from orbit
definitely do not think people are taking the man-eating slugs seriously enough
we're gonna feed them this BRAND NEW STATION WAGON!
Okay, the orange flower wallpaper is pretty awesome. I'd have that in the bathroom
"We're gonna play Slug Rock!!!!" #monsterdon
It doesn't have to be table salt, it could be road salt.
Oh shit I remember this scene from Breaking Bad (2008)
[edit: https://neuromatch.social/@SRLevine/114492422814885274 ]
#monsterdon
Oh good the teens are back. I was tired of watching middle-aged people die #monsterdon
Timpanis AND tuba = MENACING DANGER!
Double-up on these here yellow rubber overalls and do some slug huntin'
Colored liquids and glassware!
She's more afraid of her mother than killer slugs?
Like 80% of the people in this #Monsterdon hate each other and the rest are horny for each other (or both) they should all be out out of their misery by the slugs
I mean artisanal arsenic might kill them? But fire will definitely do the trick. Or salt. Stuff they might accidentally walk into anyway.
@CactuarJoe oh yeah, he's dead....too much family life exposition... #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon π π π π π©Έ π±
Wut-the-actual-ut
Wait... the slugs speak FRENCH?!?
@diazona i think this is a pretty stupid movie does that count?
"Brady and I are going to kill some man-eating, killer slugs."
"These killer slugs of yours aren't 18 and speak French?"
"Well, actually, they do happen to speak French. It's a side-effect of the toxic waste."
@Bluedepth As it was in 1958, so it was in 1988.
#monsterdon
@moira Fortunately in #Monsterdon we don't have to worry about crazy things like thinking
@socketwench damn! I was wondering when Slugs would hit #monsterdon, and now I'm missing it due to insufficient bandwidth π.
Much of the location shooting was done just down the road from where I lived in upstate New York in the 80s/90s. It was pretty much the most exciting thing to come to the area that decade. Those red and white cop cars are actual Wayne County Sheriff cars, many of the buildings are local landmarks, and several friends appear as extras.
1/2
So many horny couples in this movie, it really does feel like one of THOSE parties...
whoa now, let's not be rash. lithium-based arsenic is a well-proven solution! https://social.coop/@hollie/114492395457200072
Is that Cagney and Lacy combined into one person??
@Andres4NY Lithium-Based Arsenic, my favorite Nirvana EP #Monsterdon
#monsterdon I've been to the stable on a horse with no name...
Can I freshen your drinks? Bloody Mary?
Well....okay. Exploding slugs sounds way cooler than drowning slugs. #Monsterdon
βDon we have no choice, we need to explode the sewersβ
βIβm inβ
what
#monsterdon
we don't want any more time to think about this
if we think about it we might realise what an incredibly bad idea it is
OK, he seems like a good guy, but hear me out, he already has a well-thought out process for mass producing poison gas.
The name of the town is Ashton, a reference to Ron and Scott Asheton, of the Stooges
@hollie running for office on the "just deal with the slugs normally" platform #monsterdon
"...it's a chemical. It will make them explode."
"I mean, it worked great with that whale, right?"
why does his shirt says 42 in the front and 53 in the back?
#monsterdon
#Monsterdon This high school chem teacher is awfully broadly knowledgeable.
but why are they the same guy tho?
OH! He's the health inspector!!! Ok!
@Taweret 80's guys replicate like amoebas, they used to be one larger 80's guy. #Monsterdon
@Taweret they really are indistinguishable aren't they
I mean, if this was filmed in Spain, they did a really good job of making it look and feel like America. #monsterdon
