@nev clearly the snowbeast is a set of hairy, disembodied claw arms floating in space. That leaves giant ghost footprints #Monsterdon

"Tony was right. But we had to have our winter carnival! It was the 50th"

"I guarantee you, it'll run for the next fifty years."

No, no, NO to ALL of this

#Monsterdon

CHAOS and MAYHEM
#Monsterdon
Granny is down.

In The Shadow of the Snowbeast. #Monsterdon

@Lazarou Hey, that was a real diamonoid crown worth like $30! In 1970 money! That 's real money!

#monsterdon #Snowbeast1977

Lmfao. A competent filmmaker could have made the trampled crown clip halfway decent but instead it's just like they called over a stoner kid extra and was like "stomp on this dollar store thing" and he was like "uhhhh okay"

#Monsterdon

I remember when a Snowbeast attacked our homecoming

#Monsterdon

The crown! The crown... the crown.
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

Pro tip: when a snowbeast attacks your school, it's safest to run outside

where there is snow

and beasts

#Monsterdon

ARE YOU GONNA SHOW US, MOVIE?

#monsterdon

@ottaross at least he has a face. #Monsterdon

NO ASTRONOMICAL OBJECT IS MORE OFTEN MISTAKEN FOR A YETI ATTACK THAN THE PLANET VENUS

#monsterdon #Snowbeast

#Monsterdon 🌨️ ❄️ 🦍 👣 ❄️😱

Apparently the precious snow crown was made of tin foil and glue because it went pretty easy

Yes, run outside for sure. Great strategy.

#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

this grandma really turning out to be a disney villain huh #monsterdon

It's true. I saw a couple Bigfoots in the backyard the other evening.

#monsterdon

DONT YOU FUCKERS DARE ABANDON GRANNY
#Monsterdon

@murph after what he did in the Star Wars Holiday Special I'd be reluctant too

#Monsterdon

Maybe the yeti IS a girl and she's sick of being overlooked and we find out that Betty Jo was really mean to her as a child, and now the SNOW QUEEN HAS TO DIE

#monsterdon
#snowbeast

Who's going to hose out the snowqueenmobile?

#monsterdon #Snowbeast1977

Did…did they literally only have enough budget for the arms of a yeti suit

#Monsterdon

Why did I have to kill the motor at this moment? #monsterdon

Couldn't she have driven away?
#monsterdon

go snowbeast go!!!!! get enough food to last the winter!!!! #monsterdon

Snowbeast!!!!!

#monsterdon

Yeah so far I'm rooting for:
- the snowbeast
- the old lady
- Ellen

#Monsterdon

Moving to the PNW, I soon learned why people wear knit caps so often.

Now I'm watching a movie with all these people walking around in the snow, bareheaded.

#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

Beast wants an autograph too #snowbeast #monsterdon

Rule Britannia music break for no apparent reason

#Monsterdon

Ah yes, the tradition pre-orgy prep rally
#monsterdon

Is the Queen coming?

#monsterdon

snowbeast, no! it's a pep rally! save yourself!

#monsterdon

for a movie all about skiiers these guys are really bad at skiing
they gotta pizza french fries. cmon.
#Monsterdon

There is a very relaxed convo about making plans to kill the monster tomorrow. Not today, not right now, not in a few minutes, but tomorrow.
#Monsterdon

Cue the "thing in the woods" scene from Evil Dead.

#Monsterdon

Finally, jazz music!! It's orgy time

#Monsterdon

STOP WITH THE JAWS MUSIC

HAVE A LITTLE SELF-RESPECT #Monsterdon

Everyone in this film is supposed to be an expert skier. One guy was flipping Ski Patrol. And yet each one of them face-plants on wide open terrain. #Monsterdon

@gnomon If she was from the valley, it'd be #checksNotes Malled to death! #Monsterdon

second wipeout of the film! thats more crashes than kills right now!! hahahaha
#Monsterdon

@trixter It's the most thoroughly form-fitting snowsuit I've ever seen. Which I guess answers the question of how to have Sexy Lady in a movie where everyone is in heavy winter clothes all the time.

#Monsterdon

This really IS the basis of skifree huh
#monsterdon

If Bigfoot is only in the pacific northwest someone needs to tell all the roadside attractions all over the damn country #monsterdon

@Keiraleesharonart I totally missed this reporter subplot, to me she is just a lady wandering in the woods, and somehow i do find that extremely relatable 😬 #Monsterdon

The blue braided headband looks very familiar.

#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

Love how I just happen to have an ex skier with delusions of grander that suddenly a yeti expert

#monsterdon #SnowBeast

french fries! french fries for your life!

#monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie the shape of the skis makes the snowbeast think the skier is its natural prey, the mountain seal

#monsterdon

No, bigfoots aren't just confined to the Pacific Northwest. They've got a wide-ranging habitat right going from Northern Canada into the plains. Even. Hell with Urban encroachment. There's even some Urban Sasquatch walking around these days

#monsterdon #SnowBeast

"One of those legendary creatures known as Bigfoot. "

Are they worried the audience won't have heard of Bigfoot? #Monsterdon

They are talking very seriously about bigfoot. That must took a lot of takes not to laught about it.
#monsterdon

Whatever it is it wasn’t murder. Only human beings commit murder and that wasn’t a human being

#Monsterdon #snowbeast

@Keiraleesharonart tranquilizers for the audience plz

#Monsterdon

Okay, first off you do not want to run in ski boots. That's just tough. Second off when you find bloody cave entrance you better haul ass away from it as fast as you can not to stay there and look

#monsterdon #SnowBeast

This COP is the beast! #snowbeast #monsterdon

do those prints imply it has long weird fingers? can it play piano good? maybe bass?
#Monsterdon

don't follow the blood trail through the snow! pizza! pizza right now you fool!

#monsterdon

OK which one of you is going to publish the pattern for that hat/turban/yarn thing?

#monsterdon

FINALLY! BLOOD! IN THE SNOW! #monsterdon

Tony is a dickhead I hope he gets snow beasted

#Monsterdon

Hiking in ski boots is ... challenging

#Monsterdon

We were kinda hoping you could identify her from something other than her face Tony 😬 #Monsterdon

OK so the beast is partial to faces. I can dig that.
#Monsterdon #Snowbeast

The sheriff doesn't do anything with the body of a murder victim until they get the manager of the ski resort in for some guidance.

#monsterdon

the snowsquatch is gonna be wearing her face

#monsterdon #Snowbeast

So I'm calling it now, in the movie's climax Bo is going to sing a tender duet with the yeti to the tune of Suddenly Seymour #Monsterdon

Lady alone in the woods, following what look a little like bear tracks. Nope, nothing could possibly go wrong here.

*sun starts to set*

Everything's fine.

#monsterdon

Is it wrong of me that I want the #Snowbeast to chow down on Yvette "Ellen The Reporter" Mimieux? 🤦🏻‍♀️

And as an equal opportunity misanthrope, also her hubby Bo "I act with my height" Svenson 💀🪦🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

#Monsterdon ❄️ #Snowbeast1977

#monsterdon DELIBERATE LENS FLARE

Okay. Gar is standing up for the rights of snow monsters. I'm warming up to him.

#monsterdon

@blogdiva I just noticed that! What the heck?

#monsterdon
#snowbeast

If I saw these footprints, I'd be like "Zoiks, Scoob! the monster went thatta way. Let's you and me go the other way!" #monsterdon

"We gotta get to the barn! The whole gang's there and we're gonna have a shindig!"

#monsterdon #Snowbeast

Grandson has kind of a volume problem #Monsterdon

that hat!!

#monsterdon

that was the most bored sounding "where" omg

#monsterdon

i have no idea why that fade to red even happened?

#monsterdon

Everyone loves gazing out at The Old Fairchild Farm from the woods! #monsterdon #snowbeast

this lady's safe from the snowbeast, the brim of her hat would scare anything off. #Monsterdon

My sister: "If only someone had put up signs..."

#Monsterdon

Hey, she's using the Snowbeast's lookout spot!

#Monsterdon

those novelty snowshoes are really popular this year #monsterdon

I guess it's to be expected. This movie falls smack dab in the middle of the US skiing boom. The skiing sequences probably would have landed differently at the time. Not that it wouldn't still be a bore.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Let's discuss it over a twilight swim like normal people.

I love her blue hai.... oh.

#monsterdon #Snowbeast

I don't understand how anyone skis in pants this tight

#monsterdon
#snowbeast

Aaand the reporter stares off into the distance waiting for one brain cell to collide into another, like a pair of loose crackers bouncing around an empty box. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon All these skiiers out on the slopes in adorable outfits but no wind protection on their eyes, ears, and necks... 🥶

"More cross-country, Joel."

"Cross-country."

"Cross-country."

#monsterdon #Snowbeast

here is the interesting movie: Gar isn't actually stuck in 1968, he has just been moonlighting as being the snowbeast after his wife spent years out there researching bigfoots/yetis. he became the thing she loved but there was no way for him to tell her, because as he got deeper and deeper into the mind of a snowbeast he couldn't resist the lust for blood, spooking skiiers just doesn't give the same kind of thrill. movie closes with Gar in the back of a police cruiser screaming to her "it was all for you {wife name}!" #monsterdon

Oh, good, another skiing sequence

#Monsterdon

"It wasn't an animal. It was a rock lobster!!"

#monsterdon

Tonight @steggy is having to divide her time between #monsterdon and #holidaybaking
chocolate crinkle cookies.

Look at that cerulean one-piece skisuit over a magenta turtleneck. People in the 70s knew how to fucking dress for the mountain. #monsterdon

Could your ski onesie be more closely fit?

#monsterdon

Why do they keep saying "It wasn't an animal."

How else would you describe a Bigfoot?
#Monsterdon

I thing Gar is team monster
#monsterdon

Oh hey they still use the term guest instead of customer in '77 #monsterdon

Say it louder, dude.

#Monsterdon

Gar is Team Snowbeast. Interesting.

#Monsterdon #Snowbeast
