The actor who plays Gar was working on a PhD in metaphysics in the 70s, and took up acting to pay the bills.
He's also a 5th degree black belt in Judo, competing internationally.
@SRLevine I may have to revise my earlier toot
They didn't invent not hitting on *people* until the 1980's
"Bigfoot controversy"
#monsterdon
@diazona vegetable? #Monsterdon
More yelling. Heβs a great actor. So great that itβs pronounced βack tourβ. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon does sasquatch deserve rights including legal representation in court?
The swimming pool?
when he asked if he was still good on the shooting range, i seriously thought for a minute he was gonna start asking about his sex life, and not about to infodump about killing the beast
#monsterdon
@SRLevine Same guy I think?
The Man Who Killed Bigfoot and Hitler and the Snow Beast script did not sell
#monsterdon

So is Gar supposed to have like a Texas accent or something?
And why does Tony get a robe AND a towel but Gar only gets a towel?
"Meet me in an hour at the swimming pool. Wear something pretty" #monsterdon
Poorly synced ADR for the win #Monsterdon
"I FOUND HER JACKET THE OTHER DAY.
"I AM GOING TO KEEP YELLING THIS A LITTLE BIT LOUDER SO ALL OUR GUESTS HEAR ME."
Is this same guy hitting on both Gar *and* Gar's wife? Or have I confused my generic white guys?
sexy meal vs. sexy hot tube scene...
WHERE DID THE JACKET *GO*?! #monsterdon
"It's not like you or me, so that makes it okay to kill it?"
Yeah! This is Reagan's America! #Monsterdon
Now they are hanging out in nothing but robes drinking together near roses?
I think the Snowbeast is subtext for something.
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast
did he the story was "an hoax"??
I need her ski hat!
#Monsterdon
Gar: βMarksman.β And not just on the range.
Can you talk about missing guests and bloodstained jackets just a wee bit louder?
@BsCreativeLife so do burnt marshmallows! #iMnotHelpingAmI? #Monsterdon
We're still stuck on everyone is so convinced the snowbeast is neither human or animal
Mountain: "I'm being a metaphor here!"
#monsterdon #snowbeast
Kind of wish the monster would fuck off and let these gentlemen fulfill their bromance and weird relationship. Obviously the wife is just an excuse for both of them to hang out #Monsterdon
Aw, man! Tony was just about to be totally up front with Gar!
He's got a surprising soft side
#Monsterdon
Oh lord the #monsterdon posts are popping in
"I don't care about any 'top man' that isn't topping me."

Tony's hair doesn't even look normal or symmetric in water
Gopher needs to overhear this conversation and let the doc know that these two need some shipboard advice
I appreciate the two Canadians so far who have faved this. For those who don't get the reference: https://youtu.be/QNKpK_InQHQ
(TV as a "hot" medium, etc.)
@jonny When they call him by name I get emotional but it's on account of Teri Garr #monsterdon
Sheriff Sideburns
Getting Tony's hair wet didn't really help at all #Monsterdon
@SarraceniaWilds shoot it at Garbage Hill #Monsterdon
The two male leads are sharing a hot tub together. Some of you are asking for space lesbians, but I think we have snow gays cooking here.
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast
Haha! Hopefully this isnβt the rest of the job interview in the poolβ¦
#monsterdon
@jonny he's certainly the right size for a snowbeast
bigfoot mentioned
#monsterdon
It's the 70s, they've gotta have a hot tub scene. #Monsterdon
An erotic interlude, oddly inserted. #Monsterdon
I'm not #monsterdon ing tonight but I head Mr. Snowbeast is putting people through squid games
It is true that marriage can't survive a lack of respect. Maybe the movie will magically turn into "An Unmarried Woman" and be much better.
@shig looks around nervously ...cliff Hangar! #Monsterdon
He was hired verbally, hasn't even had a chance to sign anything with HR, and he's already been designated to crown the Snow Queen? Who's running this fucking monarchy?!
For someone who has clocked that his oldest friend is making moves on his wife, Gar is not putting up ANY stop signs. If anything, he seems offended not to be involved. #monsterdon
Such an array of chins in this film. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon "i've been having fantasies about the snowbeast"
"good or bad?"
@Taweret snow beast is sitting in their cave grumbling about all the noise that the WΜΆhΜΆoΜΆsΜΆ ΜΆdΜΆoΜΆwΜΆnΜΆ ΜΆiΜΆnΜΆ ΜΆWΜΆhΜΆoΜΆvΜΆiΜΆlΜΆlΜΆeΜΆ skiers at the Winter Carnival are making
I want to be IN this pool I dont care WHO else is in it I dont care if theres a SNOWBEAST I wanna be IN that pool
Sexual realities
This movie is kinda' like reading the "missed connections" part of Craig's List if it was a show right now.
Jesus, this blond dude is enormous!
#monsterdon
@yatsu Yeti's into clean eating #Monsterdon
"I need a nap." #Monsterdon

But Gar (a) is SUPERSIZED and (b) has a very natty skisuit while Tony's intimidated by having inherited wealth?

It was very cold during filming. When actors appeared in hot tubs (coming up), their hair was actually freezing.
#monsterdon the side by side conversation is bizarre
This feels like the first point in the movie where some serious surgery may have happened in the editing room.
That very obvious ADR in particular feels like it's filling in a gap created by cutting a bunch more of this monster-free crap
Hairy monsters are in the pool!
#Monsterdon
no less than three shades of yellow in this shot #monsterdon #snowbeast1977
At the swimming pool???
sorry vacab help needed: "noose person?"
"Tony, you're needed to advance the _monster_ plot" #monsterdon
@CactuarJoe he was trying to wash her off, she was dirty. #Monsterdon
Snowbeast is upset at how everyone here is ignoring his ear-splitting roars #monsterdon
@srol Management consultant?
He won that medal? I saw him down the pawn shop.
#monsterdon #snowbeast
And by nap she really means a good nudge-nudge-wink-wink #Monsterdon
@brooke tbh I have been zoned out this whole time
@brucetheknife I'M HOLDING OUT FOR IT BEING GRANNY #monsterdon
ok this is the real romantic subplot #monsterdon

How do you block hashtags? I donβt know what #monsterdon is and I donβt want to learn.
going to start dramatically exiting every conversation with βi need a napβ #monsterdon
Gar is Logan! #Monsterdon
"I love you, truly, deeply, I- oh hey is that more coffee?" #Monsterdon
He's talking to her like I do when they have the spicy chicken onigiri at the sushi counter at my local grocery store. #monsterdon
lol I NEED A NAP is going to be my go-to room exit #Monsterdon
@springdiesel The beast is so charming it's... disarming. #Monsterdon
Mr. Gar
"A marriage can survive a lot of things, but it can't survive a lack of respect." That's one thing we got with the introduction of no-fault divorce, thankfully.
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast
#Monsterdon oh i totally zoned out during that conversation between the former lovers
I always forget the nuance of the subplots in this here little 1977 tv movie
I am once again tuning out the boring heterosexual romantic subplot. i'm sorry it's just SO BORING
EWWWWWWWW
Wait... Did someone just find an old script then find & replace Avalanche with Snowbeast?
And add a couple murder scenes. Or maybe it was a serial killer avalanche movie?
Murder in the Powder. Death on Ice. Snow Falls.
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast
normalize ending conversations with "i need a nap" and running off
#Monsterdon
aaaand the sappy music
I think THIS was the love scene the relationship in Airplane was parodying. #Monsterdon
Did not expect that!
#Monsterdon
@amyfou Maybe he used to be Garfield before the accident? #Monsterdon
