So far, we have college students, cantankerous elderly people, yuppies, and cops.
Needs more slugs.

Dog CC: For the love of god, take me to a shelter. DOn't leave me here!! #Monsterdon
juicy corpse is gonna move ya. chew so soft, gets right to ya
Who would be tempted to touch **anything** in that house?
#Monsterdon π π π π π©Έ π±
SOMEONE RESCUE THAT DOGGO
"Okay, but don't touch anything" "Don't have to tell me twice"
#monsterdon
How did those earthworms get on the corpse indoors? They were riding on the slugs' backs.
@brooke think we can end the #monsterdon commentary here
Voyeur slugs...
@Copperplate Of course. They're slugs, not monsters. #monsterdon
Oh that face was altogether too gooey π€’ #Monsterdon
#monsterdon "It doesn't look like anyone lives here. // We'll see about that! We'll get this house full of Orphans and trashy prostitutes, just you wait and see!"
There are some very greasy, very drunk slugs nearby...
@blue also they are pepping toms
#Monsterdon
FUN FACT: slugs are technically just shell-less snails. There are "semi-slugs" with partial shells. And various groups of snails lost their shells independently, so "slug" isn't a real group; it encompasses many different lineages more closely related to snails with shells than to each other.
#Monsterdon π
Oh that was gross. Also obviously a cheap rubber mask, but still gross.
ewwww, shitty toilet....
I really didn't clock the old man on the couch getting attacked by slugs. I thought he was just going through it. #monsterdon
"Oh my god...!"
It's an anatomical skeleton covered in clay and jelly! #Monsterdon
Their dubbing the dog!
That poor dog!
I suspect the slugs were involved
@wohali is this a thing that people do? maybe he has a wood stove to burn the box? #Monsterdon
This wellness check looks surprisingly realistic.
So... the Sheriff just goes to random dilapidated buildings?!?
@ramsey It's fine, Slugs (1988) moves slow. #Monsterdon
This is a tough movie. Tough banter, spitting, AND swearing. By a COP.
So sheriff drives around with lights running as he just goes from place to place. and he leaves the lights running even as he gets out of the car. #monsterdon
music suddenly became tv series theme
Whoa the first Smoking Kills PSA! So many firsts in this flick. #monsterdon
What is this driving music?
Next time on 'Slugs!'
This music and the police car. Sounds like and old episode of dragnet
#monsterdon
I wonder how long it is before the porn-y scenes get more annoying than if we were watching #WrongSlugs https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0395216/
...I was wrong, it's unused Hill Street Blues music #Monsterdon
What a strange soundtrack on this #Monsterdon it is basically the Evening News
this is like MacGuyver music being played to a slow-moving sedan, what the hell
Shows smoking but has someone (and law enforcement at that!) immediatly speak against it. Very transgressive for the 80's, no?
Lights and siren for an eviction -- makes sense.
Happy police driving music πΆ #monsterdon
#Monsterdon π π π π π©Έ π±
But why the jaunty music with the cop car?
#monsterdon Lets take my car, the bouncy cop wagon of Silver Spoons fame.
He's right to be angry, smoking kills
AND you get a fine for-- ha! thank you. #monsterdon
Dismissal of the difference between snails and slugs, get that on yer bingo cards
Not another cheap wood-paneled room
#monsterdon
Hill Street Slugs. #Monsterdon #Slugs1988
Productivity music!
Seeing their teacher make out in her lacies might be more traumatizing for high school students than Slugs.
Snails are introverts, slugs have come out of their shells, that's the difference buddy
i think this might be the first time iβve watched the #monsterdon timeline without the movie and itβs hilarious.
#Monsterdon ugh
The slugs are peeping toms!
Oh gosh, this is some bad roleplaying by this couple
#monsterdon
#Monsterdon clearly slugs are non fond of heterosexual sex.
*sighs*
I'm going to be jealous of every woman's hips during the entire film, aren't I?
:blobcatsad:
So far, the slugs aren't the grossest thing in this movie.
Glass: The Slugs ONE weakness
#Monsterdon
I nice Reliant automobile! #Monsterdon
Hell of an introduction lol #monsterdon
Playing at 2x speed, these opening credits still take far too long.
I'm getting out my fashion police badge!
A stripey purpls polyester peplum dress. Say that 5 times fast.
It's John, Mary and what the Slug saw? #Monsterdon
Peeping Slugs!
@Taweret They hope to keep it that way
#Monsterdon I don't think my lecturers are having this much fun.
#monsterdon An adorable drunk and a small dog early in the movie. You should always develop a bit of attachment for such fond characters in these sort of m- whoa WTF movie!
Look at all these normals #monsterdon
I'm sorry but I would love to know the head of the sewer system. I wish I had gotten tickets to tour the Greenpoint facility... sigh....
#Monsterdon
Maureen is flunking this job interview. #Monsterdon #slugs1988
#monsterdon He's a college educated toilet flusher. Flush a whole bunch of times, so many times, gotta get all of it to the White House after all. Ahem.
This whole bar/restaurant scene is nothing but white people. #monsterdon
So why did you stop being a plumber? #Monsterdon
(Forgot to hashtag this hours ago.)
In a "National Lampoon" "Letters from the Editors" column c.1976C.E., a series of letters followed along with a new version of the classic thriller "Leiningen versus the Ants" called "Leiningen versus the Snails" in which the eponymous character has plenty of time waiting for the onslaught.
Very 80s shoulder pads aplenty #Monsterdon
you say that to someone you've NEVER MET before?
#monsterdon So much Polyester, I feel the static charge building. I will begin to levitate.
Just got home and need to catch up.... is Slugs filmed in front of a live studio audience? #monsterdon
βThose kids couldβve killed me, but I survived!!!β
My dude, maybe donβt walk down the exact center of the road.
Also please donβt offer liquor to the dog. #Monsterdon
And this is the place where the writer died...
Whoa, Meg Ryan's first role! #monsterdon
One thing a lot of these movies take for granted is dialogue...not this one #Monsterdon
"You wanna boogie?"
Lady, you came dressed for Dirty Dancing and this is an episode of Thirtysomething. #Monsterdon
Wicked bitch of the north?!?! hA!
Like most other people, I am also very commonly offended by my own leftover pizza, and I often express this displeasure by yeeting the slices and the box into my industrial-scale slug farm down the basement stairs. My suspension of disbelief is resolute and unshaken!
no respect for slug farmers these days π
Fun fact: No one in this film had to 'act' drunk. #Monsterdon #Slugs1988
The humans are all so bad so far that five minutes into this #Monsterdon I am already fully on Team Slugs
Hope she is not the next to die, they only kill off the loveable characters.
What about this bar is giving off a "dancey" vibe? #monsterdon
I'm a few minutes late getting started.
@cargot_robbie yes, the list of CWs for this movie may be the longest we've ever had for #Monsterdon
#monsterdon The sexually liberated woman of the 80s. I love her voice.
YUPPIES!!! Boo, hiss!
The Rich people will NEVER get slugs on them
I've seen that guy in something but idk what
