Bad plan, Frank
Ok, the visuals on this scene are amazing. That's been true of a lot of this movie! #Monsterdon
Eep, the strings were pretty out of tune in this section. Sight-reading scores isnβt always easy #Monsterdon
Handy of him to decorate in a modern kindling motif. #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula
@diazona I was wondering about this, too, but maybe she didnβt realize they could hear them.
Oh, this would make a nice planter box with this moss on it. #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
To be honest this #Monsterdon isnβt really something Iβm enjoying all that much Although the mist form special effects are very clever, Iβll give it that.
Filling the box with dried hay? What's he gonna do, smoke him out?
Typical southern country sheriff. Brain of a contused bullfrog.
The audition for this role was twenty minutes of looking crazy while running through a swamp
I think it was FW Murnau who noted that the most important part of a vampire movie is four guys in beige suits walking in and out of rooms explaining scenes we just watched to each other. #monsterdon
@me oh who needs a soul when you could run away with your true love and be immortal
We'll explain later #SonOfDracula1943 #Monsterdon
We'll explain it on the way. I expect to see Hamon mentioned in time.
It's all becoming plain as day!
- Velma
Cop is totally clueless that's CLASSIC #Monsterdon
Can you imagine how much you'd have to overcook that steak to use it as a weapon? Why it'd loose all it's flavor!
So Lazlo is the only one who read ahead in the script?
#Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
Whatβs morgue got to do, got to do with it?
This is a high stakes caper, see.. the consequences are grave..
βItβs all becoming as plain as day, professor.β
βIt has been for me, for some time.β
Love that arrogance.
Stole her this morning. #Monsterdon
No one is going to be able to find a steak this late at night, all the restaurants are closed. #SonOfDracula1943 #Monsterdon
Iβll be waiting for you in the most cinematic room in the house
It baffles me that Kay was totally fine with being overheard but couldn't stand to be seen in the cell with Frank
Yes yes. The swamp of unending drainage. We all know where that is.
@crowbriarhexe Yeah, my jaw dropped at that one! I don't think the Count would care to reside in swamp drainage shunt. #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
"Destroy" not "kill"? Oh he was listening to the Toonami dub not the Adult Swim version.
#Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
Shove a stake through him or something
this whole movie is a drainage pipe of a swamp.
Not a HUGE fan of Women As Evil Manipulator but at least she gets a role

The costumer in charge of ties for this movie is very strange
βDo you really think there was someone in there with him?β π€¦ββοΈ #Monsterdon
I mean you've been a vampire for less than a week and already plotting to off your sire/husband. That is, I believe, considered extremely rude amongst the nightfolk. You're not supposed to get all skullduggity until your 200th year. #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
Okay, no way she has a mist-form amount dots in Primal already. Dracula was Tzimisce, so she's only got free Fleshcraft right now.
Brad Pitt woulda been great as the jail guy in the vest
@log Alucard didn't tell Kate THAT part of vampire lore! #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula
Oops all Van Helsings
I love the "pumping the lead into the air" school of movie gun shooting. #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula
[BANG! BANG!] [Two people die in upstairs apartments]
Oh, come on! Do the deed of the fuck. Give us|me the Son as promised by the name!
"You can't be serious, professor!" "I am, and stop calling me Sirius"
whoa, a thing happened
@cd0 There's no respect for consent in Kay. #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
Consummating an Unholy Union is just the kind of guy I am. #Monsterdon
"I am serious, and don't call me Professor."
They really have that mist transformation down pat.
I'm thinking that Frank and Alucard might want to dawnbreak Kate and be vampbros that dodged a mutual bullet together. #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
nice mist transformation!
I swear the smoke transformations are getting better
"Talking to someone? Where?" "At the bar" [points to the window]
OK, so Kay is a pyschopathic piece of shit too. #monsterdon #SonOfDracula
what is up with the door noises in this movie? did the foley artists need a raise or something?
Oh, sure, aristocrats always live in swamp sewers #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula
The expanding ring of crimes

The old drainage flume?
I don't think he 'guessed'. #SonOfDracula1943 #Monsterdon
She's no longer my sister when she interferes with me.. whoa, watch out for Kay.
Count Γ la carte.
So ... no one is checking her coffin during the night?
This is ennui in film form.
You know what this could really use? A cowboy, and also a Renfield.
So this movie has an anti-cremation message.
#Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
Ashes? #SonOfDracula1943 #Monsterdon
They really are very polite back then.
You can tell this movie was made during an age when being stoic was a virtue, can't you?
βDo you happen to know where he stays during the day?β #Monsterdon
Donβt they realize that if they destroy the vampire who sires them, all the people who they sired will be destroyed? Right?

Claire pulls the old 'but I'm gonna cremate you' switcheroo!
That would be a swell way to spend an evening, listening to a goof talk to himself in two voices.
...
Let me get my notes.
@OliviaVespera (seriously though there is something of a plot going here, it just advances at a glacial pace)
@CardboardRobot I find the movie surprisingly competent. I rather like them.
@OliviaVespera Let's just say the real estate deal was the highlight of the movie
These sheriffs spending all their time chasing vampires are really regretting burning all their crosses. #monsterdon
You can kill anyone with a stake thru the heart Kay.
#monsterdon
"I'd say you're kookoo for Cocoa Puffs, Frank"
Frank, I'm saying this as a friend, there are plenty of less evil women out there. If she schemes now, she'll scheme later!
Take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
(The real purpose of the Manhattan Project.)
They're all just going to keep going along with the "Alucard" alias, huh?
"Would you think I was losing my mind if I told you Kay came to talk to me?"
Is Kay in the room with us now? #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula
Frank is strangely compelled by the vision of he and his fiance living together forever. #SonOfDracula1943 #Monsterdon
She's hiding in the stove, isn't she?
Holy shit, they've given the women agency, I was not expecting that from a 1947 movie!
So far we've got a nice twist and a few moments of good cinematography, separated by a plot that moves like traffic on the Mass Pike
Heya just joined the stream. how is it going?
Isnβt Transylvania in Romania, not Hungary? #Monsterdon

#SonOfDracula1943
Here come the two means hitherto mentioned by Dr. Lazlo!
Dracula -- we are going to -- wait for it-- double cross him!
"Or sunlight, that other way I just mentioned." #monsterdon
You gotta admit Kate's plan is surprisingly coherent.
"We don't have to go back to Planet 10 - we can still destroy them here, on Earth!"
@strangefour Another monster movie driven by real estate shenanigans! I was just talking about that this afternoon in book club! #Monsterdon #SonOfDracula1943
