"...a marriage can survive a lot of things"
-Snowbeast bursts through the wall like the Kool-Aid guy-
"But it can't survive SNOWBEAST!"

#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

The real snowbeast is infidelity #monsterdon

Movies punching above its weight class for marriage relationship problems in 1977

#monsterdon #SnowBeast

I'm very impressed, Tony. You're a real man, not like Gar. Gar is such a jobless idiot. I've been having fantasies about you. About you, getting rid of Gar if you know what I mean. Fuck Gar! But not literally, because he doesn't satisfy me in bed, Tony. Where was I?

#Monsterdon

✅ Coffee is Served #monsterdon

I wonder what the snow beast is up to

#monsterdon

"I was afraid of seeing you again"
"Well that was sensible"

#monsterdon #snowbeast

Wow she's pretty quick on the draw with offering herself up

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe clearly the snowbeast is a guy wearing a costume trying to destroy the festival, a la scooby doo

#monsterdon

What did I think would happen? Why gonorrhea, of course. #monsterdon

This conversation is gross. get back to the monster killing people please.

#Monsterdon

@SarraceniaWilds the lesbian couple got attacked right off the bat 😔 #monsterdon

The kid's traumatized at seeing such unconvincing stage blood #monsterdon

@SordidAmok "but then again who does?" #wrongMovie #Monsterdon

Marshall McLuhan.txt #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Excellent camerawork here, obviously the kid is a demon

John - does he live? I'm guessing no.

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe this logic is ruining my immersion

(not really)

#Monsterdon

It’s the middle of a hot Monday in Australia, I’m done with work and shopping, and I get to experience #monsterdon vicariously. Perfect.

@floatybirb I don't think they could vibe because it was the 70s. They would have to groove or grok or peace out or something.

#Monsterdon

Wait, so

The yeti kills a girl

drags her halfway across the frozen wastes -- SOMEHOW without leaving a trail

and leaves her body IN A BARN?

Why? #Monsterdon

Ah yes, the brass band on the mountain, as all ski resorts have de rigeur

#monsterdon

#monsterdon "RILL LODGE" / "Crested Butte"

heh heh heh butte

@ohiofi if he even has a mask. Just a monster arm so far. #Monsterdon

she didn't pizza either I guess

#monsterdon

Faceplant! Hahaha

#monsterdon

When your Ski Patrol dude wipes out... reassuring!

Oh wait - nvm, he's snackfood for the #Snowbeast1977 now anyway 😵💀🪦 #monsterdon

Red screen for character death.

#Snowbeast ❄️ 👹#Monsterdon

lol, horizontal land standing in for near vertical?

LOL @ clown skiier's cliffhanging freeze frame death

It feels so earnest as well....lovely...

#monsterdon

Maybe the snowbeast will come help him

... oops, guess not

#monsterdon

The first rule of Ski Patrol is don't crash. The second rule of Ski Patrol is obey orders. The third rule of Ski Patrol is don't get eaten by the snowbeast.

#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

SNOWBEAST HEADPATS #monsterdon

That fade to red! 😱

#monsterdon #snowbeast

Snowbeasts love kids, their favourite light snack!
#monsterdon

PAUSE AND SLOW FADE TO BRIGHT RED LMAO

#monsterdon

Oh come on, you could slide down that on your butt. #Monsterdon

Well done ski patrol, right off the cliff

#monsterdon #SnowBeast

@floatybirb I miss sweater ladies! also white shorts ladies also... #Monsterdon

Maybe they should remake this film, but with snowboards. That might fix it

#monsterdon

Okay, we get it movie. The dude skied a really long distance. Can we get a little wibbly wobbly effect and just say "time passed"? #monsterdon

Big shout out to the camera crew on skis too

#monsterdon #SnowBeast

I like to snowmobile to the top of a slope, so I can ski down, then I guess buy a new snowmobile to go get my abandoned one and then DO IT AGAIN

#monsterdon #Snowbeast1977

#Monsterdon ❄️ #Snowbeast1977 Even in 1977, would skiers obey a RESTRICTED AREA sign?

The signs could say "all the people you can eat: 24H buffet just down the slope" #Monsterdon

Oh. Good snowmobile action. Nice ascent of a hill there.
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

@allanb Easy way to fix survivor's guilt...

#Monsterdon

@socketwench if grandma is the snowbeast that would be a perfect plot twist #Monsterdon

"I offer myself as a human snackrifice!" #Monsterdon

I mean you know the time and money you would have to spend to get a mess of "Beware Snowbeast" signs #Monsterdon

Somebody says something intense

*listener is confused*

*long snowmobile shot*

I think I get it, can I skip 90% of the movie now?

#Monsterdon

The signs should say, "HEY SNOWBEAST, TASTY PEOPLE JUST HALF A MILE DOWN THE SLOPE"

You know, to get him to come out and show himself

#monsterdon
#snowbeast

Yeah do a burnout in your snowmobile

#monsterdon #SnowBeast

Granted, I haven't been able to follow too much of the conversation between these chipmunks at 2x speed, but Sylvia Sydney is the only character that is remotely engaging to me as yet.

The very tall fella is very tall, though?

#Monsterdon

@hollie not yeti maybe later #Monsterdon

@ottaross Seemed to have worked for him anyway 😆 or rather, seeing his hot wife did #Monsterdon ❄️ #Snowbeast1977

"It was an avalance Scott. AN AVALANCE. Now no more talk of man eating beasts that would scare the tourists. Listen to grandma. This snow beach stays open."
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

@nhgeek I don't think they invented not hitting on women until the 1980's

#Monsterdon

This movie came out two years after Jaws. Can you tell?
#Monsterdon

"Does he still wear his gold medals to bed?"

Overt gay reference? Is that a bingo square?

#Monsterdon

Classic love triangle snow monster story #Monsterdon

I miss the old days when women polished their lips to a luxurious high gloss. #Monsterdon

"I've forgotten how beautiful you are..."

3 audible groans in our living room.

#Monsterdon

@socketwench I like her more already!

#monsterdon #Snowbeast

Man, every monster movie was just Jaws for years and years and years afterwords, huh #Monsterdon

We’re gonna need a bigger snowmobile

#Monsterdon #snowbeast

"Tony, I'm not being insensitive..."

By which I mean, I am in fact being totally insensitive, but screw it, we have to keep the carnival open!

#Monsterdon

I totally realize she's in the wrong, but she's SUCH a better actor than Tony it's tough not to be convinced. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🌨️ ❄️ 🦍 👣 ❄️😱

Oh we all have to worry about Tony.

i’m hoping grandma kills that snow monster #Monsterdon

@allanb or in this movie getting plaid #samesies #Monsterdon

i hope the matriarch has her own private goon squad to take care of this insolent grandson character #monsterdon

You can't cancel the orgy! It is the only thing that keeps this city going!!
#monsterdon

@allanb Isn't that hair normal for old people?

#Monsterdon

so this is Snow Jaws in fact

#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

Sylvia Sidney. That's who.

#monsterdon

Nana is playing the Mayor of Amity role. #Monsterdon

Gar's hair ... looks queer

in fact everyone's hair looks queer now that I'm looking

#monsterdon

Smoking Voice Lady is like the teacher in an Acting Class, trying to get these losers to at least pass at the end of term

#monsterdon

"This wasn't an animal! And it wasn't human either."

"That narrows it down"

Get his ass, Juno

#Monsterdon

This is made-for-TV. So not much gore gonna show up. #Monsterdon

Snowbeast has to wait for you to conveniently stop skiing at 65mph and stop somewhere nearby, then jump you by surprise, or else he can't snackya.

#Monsterdon

This movie is definitely not just a reskinned Jaws

#monsterdon

Carrie Rill is stealing all my riff lines #monsterdon

i mean, i don't really want a job either, lady, can't fault him there. #Monsterdon

@ax6761 it's the 70s, they're all bad marriages

#monsterdon #Snowbeast

The blonde giant goes from 1-10 in the blink of an eye

He is the beast

#monsterdon

My first car was a ‘77 Volvo 240 wagon (in 1996) and every time I see one in a movie I flail excitedly.

#monsterdon #snowbeast

The largest actor they could afford. And the biggest houndstooth jacket I've yet seen.
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

Many men would have eaten that pretty blond girl (didn't catch her name). But the monster got to her first.

#monsterdon

EVERY. SCENE. costumes is upstaging the actors lmao #monsterdon

"Nice to feel wanted somewhere."

Oooh, temperature drop. I think six more inches of snow just showed up on that exchanged glance alone.

#Monsterdon

Man, Bo is *all teeth* isn't he. #Monsterdon

@neia it's a fool who looks for logic in a 1970s TV movie

#monsterdon #Snowbeast

k that guy is the snowbeast

#monsterdon
#Snowbeast

Bo Svenson is SO TALL

#monsterdon

A VOLVO 240 STATION WAGON.

MY BELOVED.

#monsterdon #snowbeast

I've not seen a severed limb yet or anything so I think the soundtrack is overplaying the menace a little

#monsterdon

@liferstate They've packed a lot of #foreshadowing into these first 10 minutes, that's for sure!

#monsterdon

As per my sister, this is not how you search for a person, this is how you search for a person when they're missing and you don't care about them

#Monsterdon

Powerful marks here
