@wrog @RobynGoodfellow And he didn't get a chance to tell his officers he was flying off, either! #Monsterdon #SpaceMonsterX7

Look, the main thing this movie has going for it is that Dr. Mustache isn’t in it anymore

#Monsterdon

speed dating in the lounge

#monsterdon

@wohali @rebeld bought tickets actually _on the plane_ though? In the late 1970s?

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

All these boring spores, at least this one did stuff fun... #Monsterdon

That kid looks stoned #monsterdon

Ah, the days when stewardesses must be single (and maybe still had to be be nurses?).

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🍄 🍄‍🟫 🚀 👽 😱

the spray-brunette is gonna leave a mark on that nice white cloth over the headrest

"Sure, let the plane with the alien virus in it fly, think of the Economy!"

Bit of COVID humour there...

#monsterdon

Not only do we have to find someone who can fly this plane, we have to make sure they didn't have fish for dinner.

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

This entire movie was like the first 10 minutes of "The Stand".

#monsterdon

Travel music! #Monsterdon

I’ll take that blanket 😴 #monsterdon

#monsterdon

Pilots have radios. In case you wanted to call them.

@GramrgednAngel oh I guess that makes more sense then

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@diazona

They got loads of cold case files in the back of missing women having small imperfections

#Monsterdon 🍄 #SpaceMasterX7

I stopped caring/paying attention at least 30 minutes ago. Am I supposed to be rooting for her to get away? #monsterdon

That’s roughly how it went last time I flew out of LAX. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"...tweed coats, eh? Haven't heard of that fetish before."

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

i want more blob monsters

#monsterdon

The locations and sets in the movie have been kind of impressive. More than I usually expect from pulpy 50s schlock. #monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow

*and* they're going to leave whats-his-name on there stuck flying to Hawaii?

#monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow No, I guess everyone on the plane will get spored now. #Monsterdon #SpaceMonsterX7

@Lazarou It probably takes more than five minutes just to pay these days

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

We might be facing a world wide space pandemic, but whatever you do don't delay that plane!

#monsterdon

"They are holding the plane for you."?!?!?!
This movie is science fiction.
#Monsterdon

What type of plane is that...
#monsterdon

Why did twink cop not just STOP the plane and set everyone on fire?

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

#Monsterdon

Watching her pack was compelling...

Side note: let's bring back pillbox hats

#Monsterdon

Wow what a used coffee can that plane is
#monsterdon

"Hey, I think I know that guy. Assuming I've got the

RIGHT HAND

#Monsterdon

The first mild obstruction in this guy's path and he immediately resigns himself to going to Hawaii. I probably would too #monsterdon

Pilots not willing to relinquish babes

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Evidently police work is all about asking for good-looking women

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@plaidtron3000 - good catch ... yes, the movie predates Hawaii statehood.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"...the inflight meal will be mushroom soup"

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

@josh0
Oh, hell no

#Monsterdon 🍄 #SpaceMasterX7

#monsterdon #WorstMonsterdon

Watch them stop the plane and run aboard going, "Okay, all the total babes are going to need to come with me!"

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

#Monsterdon🍄 🍄‍🟫 🚀 👽 😱

the ppl on the plane are waving out the plane windows and I always want to do that too but it feels silly

If they thought she was on the plane, wouldn't they just stop the plane from taking off instead of just getting on the plane to ride along?

What the sense make?

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@socketwench
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

20 minutes left for anything to happen #monsterdon

@wohali @rebeld holy shit

okay I guess it was more recent than I thought

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

The 50s had it so good. When I get an Amber Alert on my cell phone, I WISH I got more than a general description. 🤦‍♂️

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Los Angeles infected with spores? Gonna hafta burn the place down!

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

TOA! TOA! 2000!

#monsterdon

Alien slime in the hotel room. FINALLY.
#Monsterdon

They're holding the plane for you so hurry and we'll give your luggage to some of the slowest workers we have and they'll get it there whenever... #monsterdon

#Monsterdon🍄 🍄‍🟫 🚀 👽 😱

that's not how airports work anymore, sadly.

The 1950s, everyone: they would hold the plane for a flippin' standby passenger.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

1958 Airport ID check: Are you human? Please point to all the pictures of bicycles.

#monsterdon

I feel like calling ahead would have saved a lot of efforts by these government agents
#monsterdon

@Configures That would be fun to watch

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"hello, yeah, I need to napalm a whole building in LA"
#monsterdon
#spacemasterx7

@strangefour Huh I guess I wouldn't know if it is... I thought it just means they don't offer credit (i.e. you have to pay when you eat)

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Does she have her passport? I'm betting this movie predates Hawaii being a state, so she's kinda technically leaving the country.

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

Life before TSA #monsterdon

Run, lady, he knows who you are! You've been fingered by Hand! #Monsterdon

They had doordash way back then? #Monsterdon

Working title: Fungus On The Orient Express

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

Air travel was a lot different in the day
#monsterdon

just walk off the street and have a plane ticket in five minutes, is that possible now?

#monsterdon

I want to see Robert Stack fighting his way through the terminal

#Monsterdon

This boarding student better not be a jerk

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

ok just because a gal has a little blood rust doesn't mean she is a threat to public health. it's not a crime for a doll to have cute teeth and a pug nose #monsterdon

But seriously, if she was carrying, like, microfilm she didn't know about this could be a spy movie. Except for the occasional fungus appearance, there's basically no science in this fiction…

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

kill it before it kills Kirk's brother! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon🍄 🍄‍🟫 🚀 👽 😱

um do chemical warfare experts know how to kill fungus tho? I think they know how to burn people's eyeballs out, only

OK, the fungus didn't eat the girl but is eating her luggage?

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

She has become the army of the 12 mold-keys.

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

Whew, she escaped.
#Monsterdon

@jivens Doctor Who?

#Monsterdon
#SpaceMasterX7

Went from monster movie to police procedural. Genre-bending action!!

@Taweret : I wonder what the fungus is doing?

#Monsterdon 🍄 #SpaceMasterX7

You know the melted marshmallows on Thanksgiving sweet potatoes? That's what I keep thinking of whenever they show the monster goo

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

finally! i was wondering what the rust blob was doing now
#monsterdon

It appears blondes are immune to the blood rust #monsterdon

She’s so afraid her husband is going to find out something, so she dyes her hair blond & expects him not to notice? Or does the brunette spray wash out?

#Monsterdon

@diazona That feels like a really specific joke/political message from a narrow slice of time.
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

... are we allowed to talk about the United States chemical warfare division in 1958? #monsterdon

he's gonna hit it with the phone

that'll kill it

those old phones would kill anything

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Babies on the plane.. So sweet!
They'll have to be burned.
#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Well *obviously* the hotel clerk is listening to everyone's phone calls

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"5'll get you 10 she dyed her hair!"

Not just a pretty face that private!

#monsterdon

Man, Door Dash was super useful in 1958! #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

oh, no, that dude does make it a habit. #monsterdon

There isn't much more time to get a Space Master on the scene. I'm concerned.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Oopsie - we have a blood rust spill. Yep, torch the hotel.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

23 minutes to go. Still time to turn this around! #monsterdon

Uh-oh.... Looks like someone's getting decontaminated... again! #monsterdon

I've never heard "five'll get ya ten" outside the lyrics of Mac the Knife before. #monsterdon

So this guy was listening in on all her calls...don't suppose I'd like to patronize this place of lodging #monsterdon

lol, where is the monster though?

Unless the monster is Patriarchy?

#monsterdon

Well, we need to burn the hotel now. Just to be safe.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

#Monsterdon🍄 🍄‍🟫 🚀 👽 😱

so the hotel manager listens to your phone calls i guess

"Please leave so we can toss the room"

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Why She didn't become a rust fungus jelly yet?
#monsterdon
#spacemasterx7

“She shoooooorre did.”

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

5 MINUTES?!

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7
