Wow! More Explodium, please!

#Monsterdon

And the town was ... uh ... saved? #Monsterdon #Slugs1988

Explosions are the only way this movie can end in a satisfying way.

#Monsterdon

So basically they blew up everyone in town. Well done. #Monsterdon #Slugs1988

Dude it was a bad plan. Let him go. Get over it.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon thank you slug god for answering my prayer and blowing up the whole town <3

well rip in slime the most normal guy in this movie
#monsterdon

millions dead. Those slugs had families too! #monsterdon

I forget, wasn't there a scene vaguely like this in the 1980s blob?

#monsterdon #slugs

#Monsterdon

I've honestly never laughed so hard at a death scene before

#Monsterdon #Slugs1988

*other slug noises intensify*

#Monsterdon

"Oh hello officer I'm just pouring lithium arsenic into the sewer"

#Monsterdon

okay, he was kind of acrobatic on that pipe tho, points for him. #monsterdon

on the bright side, now we don't have to try to tell these guys apart. #monsterdon

CHUD Sheriff will get everyone killed but they seem to be doing fine themselves with that

#monsterdon

Slugs: Looks like meat's back on the table, boys. #Monsterdon #Slugs1988

20,000 Slugs Beneath Sea

#Monsterdon #Slugs

No, Doooooooooon! D:

#monsterdon #slugs1988

Dammit Sheriff!!

#Monsterdon

I've got an ideal!
Salt?
No, of course not
#Monsterdon

CHumming the slugs!! #Monsterdon

London John vs The Sheriff

#Monsterdon

Dude, stop pushing me! I told you we needed flamethrowers!

#monsterdon

@SordidAmok I never saw the Wicker Man remake, but I actually enjoyed the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory remake (except they could have done without the weird Wonka back-story).

#Monsterdon

*slug noises intensify*

#Monsterdon

sir, i think you ARE the meat. #monsterdon

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

#monsterdon #slugs1988

London John was not here for you Mike

London John let you down.

#Monsterdon

we could put salt in the sewers tho instead of whatever it is we're doing rn

#Monsterdon

They gave him a pick-axe to open a manhole cover?

#Monsterdon

#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

#Monsterdon

They're going to meet at the OLFACTORY? WTF is THAT?!?

#Monsterdon

Slugs. Why does it always have to be slugs.

#monsterdon #slugs1988

@jivens you have to admit it's a #monsterdon classic

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

You FOOL!

Now the slugs are *electric!*

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon you can't OUTRUN ELECTRICITY

Harmonica sound

Damn it!

Yeah, god damn Bob Dylan, who let him in here?

#monsterdon

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?

#Monsterdon #Slugs

@mmezabet ooof this is gonna be rough

#Monsterdon

Are the slugs carrying Pam's body away, now?

#Monsterdon

She was rarin' to go in the boat with Wayne

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe
Movie was breaking all kinds of new ground.

#Monsterdon #Slugs1988

They’re gonna put lithium in the sewer and blow sewage all over town. #Monsterdon #slugs

@ohiofi I am always saying this.

#monsterdon #slugs1988

Slugs need at least one more victim
#Monsterdon

I'll be glad when everyone in this town is dead.

#Monsterdon

@nev still wish that guy had gotten eaten though #Monsterdon

We should have flamethrowers for this job.

#monsterdon

rapey mullet guy living up to the mullet stereotype

#Monsterdon

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.

#Monsterdon

You slugged the wrong teen. #monsterdon

Drop "the stuff"

this town would I think be improved by THE STUFF

#Monsterdon

Rule #2

Never have sex in a small American town.

#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)

#Monsterdon

I love when we get a by-the-book #monsterdon movie

Ew.

#monsterdon

Oh my, they are talking about man holes.

Things are about to get real!

#Rule34 #Monsterdon

I miss CHUD. Wonder what those crazy guys are up to. #Monsterdon #Slugs1988

"mind games"

looking forward to that fucker's death

#Monsterdon

oh no now they're wearing the same outfit

#monsterdon

"...Don, position yourself next to the man hole, and get ready to drop your stuff."
"Wait, what?"

#Monsterdon #Slugs

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

How are they going to lure the slugs? Spill hamburger all over the highway?

#Monsterdon #Slugs1988

Teenage Elaine dancing, I see...

#Monsterdon

@moira I'll allow it

#Monsterdon

Yes, bait the slugs. They’ll 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

#monsterdon

we're gonna feed them this BRAND NEW STATION WAGON!

#monsterdon #slugs1988

Okay, the orange flower wallpaper is pretty awesome. I'd have that in the bathroom

#monsterdon

"We're gonna play Slug Rock!!!!" #monsterdon

It doesn't have to be table salt, it could be road salt.

#monsterdon #slugs1988

Oh shit I remember this scene from Breaking Bad (2008)

[edit: https://neuromatch.social/@SRLevine/114492422814885274 ]
#monsterdon

Timpanis AND tuba = MENACING DANGER!

#Monsterdon

Double-up on these here yellow rubber overalls and do some slug huntin'

#monsterdon

Colored liquids and glassware!

#monsterdon #slugs

She's more afraid of her mother than killer slugs?

#Monsterdon

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.

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe oh yeah, he's dead....too much family life exposition... #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🐌 🐌 🐌 💀 🩸 😱

Wut-the-actual-ut

Wait... the slugs speak FRENCH?!?

#Monsterdon

@diazona i think this is a pretty stupid movie does that count?

#monsterdon #slugs1988

"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."

#Monsterdon

@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 😭.

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.
