Surprised they are using fire not guns, what kind of Americans are these

#Monsterdon

Usually the token female becomes the main man's love interest, but she seems to have a bit too much going on for that

#monsterdon

I miss phone booths

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"I'd like a copy of the Daily Marx please"

#monsterdon

"When she went to the baggage counter to claim her baggage"

Thanks for explaining

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

HAND WARMS THE JET #Monsterdon

They're going to use nukes, aren't they?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Back when people cared about people transmitting disease. Quaint.

"He died to make me that mixtape, I can't jus leave it!!"

#Monsterdon

"I'm sorry I hit you.... only once! I should have hit you multiple times!"

#monsterdon

Women, always knocking on the window while you're trying to casually handle your biohazards, amirite?

#Monsterdon

Is this movie gonna end with a Martian loaf of bread? #Monsterdon

lol, love how unprofessional this exobiology lab is.

Also, how angry the Dr was to announce the Earth shattering discovery of extra-terrestrial life.

#monsterdon

🍄 TURN DOWN YOUR LIGHTS 🍄

(where applicable)

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon They should have at least given us a final shot of guys in hazmat suits piling up the luggage and burning it.

I'm about 20 minutes behind the crowd now, and I seem to have stumbled into "Zero Hour" (1957), the movie that "Airplane" was based on.

I expect we'll wander into the "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" episode of "Twilight Zone" next.

#monsterdon #spacemasterX7

WAIT WHAT THAT'S THE END?!?

The plane lands without gear, the passengers are ushered to buses for decontamination, and our hero fungus presumably dies offscreen?!?

And the plane only half fucked off into the sea before turning back. Welp, that's a wreck! (Especially after a belly landing with no gear down.)

Thank you for organizing and hosting, @Taweret ! Nice classic abrupt ending there. Even expecting it I was taken aback this time!

#monsterdon

I'll say this, it was less an ending and more of a brick wall across the screen. #Monsterdon

I'm mostly annoyed at this movie for how most of the interesting stuff happened offscreen or seems to have been edited out.

Contrast with Them! or for that matter The Thing From Another World.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

And now they need to burn a couple of buses to the ground. Which we are left to assume they did. Their person hunt over, we assume no further spread of the horrid blood rust. From space.

That was an interesting one. Fun to see how it could have inspired later science fiction or at least fueled tropes that would later inspire.

As predicted, short run-time helped me reach the end credits. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Honestly I was pretty sure I was doomed when I saw "Astronaut" in the lower left corner.

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

You can't end your film like THAT, what are you

okay fine, screw you too. I'm outta here. #Monsterdon

So I guess the plan is to bring the blood rust back to the continent instead of isolating it on an island huh

#Monsterdon

They're in the lounge, of a plane.
A plane lounge, in the air.
A space which was not just more seats.
I will not be silenced. This is what they took from us.
#Monsterdon

"Office of Internal Security, what kind of fake DOGE shit is this?" #Monsterdon

imagine if Kate Winslet or Laurence Fishburne was in this movie, how much better it would be.

#monsterdon

MOMMY THIS FILM SUCKS I WANNA GO HOME #monsterdon

i'm really gonna have to watch Contagion after this.

#monsterdon

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

#monsterdon

That lady staffing the airport check-in desk deserves an Oscar, that was _exactly_ the attitude of helpfulness and frustrated exasperation they always seem to manifest! Chilling accuracy.

#monsterdon

Mm, ham sammich-oh. Never mind. #Monsterdon

missed a prime chance to fade the sketch directly into her face there.

#monsterdon

Rattigan's doing a fashion critique. #Monsterdon

@ricci #monsterdon

The fungus has turned them into SOVIET RUSSIANS!!!

Hand and Rattigan! Rattigan and Hand! They solve crimes! #Monsterdon

I require music at least this intense to accompany my every relaxed stroll down the street, please and thank you.

#monsterdon

High-speed chase the speed of a low-speed chase

#Monsterdon

@SordidAmok It would be kind of nice to see some vampire boobs right now

#monsterdon

the crossing of the car park does not deserve this high stakes music

#monsterdon

Having a little trouble following plot. Probably should have watched the first 6 movies…

Space Master
2 Space 2 Master
Space Master: Pluto Drift
Space & Master
Space Master Five
Space Master & The Furious
Space Master X-7

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

POMMER, not Palmer, well, that's less handy

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

He's gonna nyuk nyuk all over this film #Monsterdon

Rolling into tonight's #Monsterdon late and without even watching the preview. But I now see that we have a fungus amungus. Also, this moustachioed scientist seems particularly peevish about discovering life from outer space.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Took a shower together, now they light each other's cigarettes :3 👀 #Monsterdon

“Rigorous”.

They had to clean their ears.

#Monsterdon

lo, obviously it's the woman's fault, that her creepy ex husband had an exobiology lab in his garage...

#monsterdon

Fuck around with space fungus, find out about space fungus

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

Land line. Drink! #monsterdon

Okay, so we get some characters. There is a Mustache Scientist who wanted to put the microbe box on the rockets, and he has an ex-wife (Laura) who has remarried but not told her new husband (now on a business trip to Hawaii) about her mustachioed ex. She is trying to get her son back from the boarding school the scientist sent him too.

But Mustache Scientist will not have this and wants to try to hook up with her a precondition for negotiations, which she won't.

#monsterdon

Are we sure this isn't the first ten minutes of a Perry Mason episode? #Monsterdon

This guy now does sumo commentary for NHK World

#monsterdon #WrongSpaceMaster

The titular X is here! Guilala~~~
#Monsterdon #XFromOuterSpace

"Things are really bad! We're no longer receiving any music!"

#monsterdon #wrongX

LOL, I was right. We are now in "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet"!

#monsterdon #spacemasterX7

@Violinknitter gotta up in the top ten for Abrupt Monsterdon Endings #monsterdon

@floatybirb fuck the people on the plane, what about the monkey?! #monsterdon

grrr #monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@diazona #monsterdon #wrongX

holy cow that was just the preview!

@Newpa_Hasai Look, sometimes you get to the end of a reel and just stop, okay? No distributor's gonna pay for a fourth reel with 30 seconds of film on it!

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

and then they all fucked off into the emergency decontamination facility #monsterdon

What's the big deal, break out the noodles and the cream of mushroom soup and get eating. #Monsterdon

"I wouldn't worry much about it ma'am. This fungus will probably kill us all in less than a week....." #monsterdon

Aliens always stashing their shrooms in satellites

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

so weird watching people smoke on planes....

#monsterdon

"I've seen the blood rust" *ELECTRIC GUITAR STING* #Monsterdon

Really my only problem with this scene is that it's hard to tell the dialogue from the plane noise -- drone on drone, man, it's all drone on drone #Monsterdon

Everyone on that plane is already fucked, they'll all be fungus....how hard can it be to find her anyway?

How big is this plane? Is there a bowling alley?

#monsterdon

Pretty believable kid babbling on the trans-oceanic plane #Monsterdon

"Would it be possible to clear the lounge? I'd like to speak to those ladies one by one."

A lounge! On a plane! Maaaaaaan, can you imagine? Last time I was on a plane I had to borrow room for my other knee.

#monsterdon

no, it's not necessary, i was just asking to ask, ya know. (-_-)

#monsterdon

@jonny the important lesson is "be sure to surrender to the authorities if they are trying to capture you for any reason, because you might be a passive carrier for deadly space fungal spores that will kill everyone" #monsterdon

lol, so now this is a plane disaster movie?

Fungus On A Plane?

#monsterdon

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

RIGHT HAND

#Monsterdon

they just going to lock the Twink in there with fungus lady and the rest of the plane and let it go?

#monsterdon

If... If y'know what I mean 👀 #Monsterdon

see how all the men can't wait to snitch on her....

#monsterdon

HAND RACING #Monsterdon

I bet the cops don't have my nose on file

#monsterdon

So weird when they Los Angeles like that

#monsterdon

this guy's not describing our lady, he's just here to make his ideal woman from police fashion plates.

#monsterdon

these guys appreciating her clothes in a practiced manner. this movie could be a lot more interesting...

#monsterdon

lol, the Twink criticising her dress sense...

#monsterdon

Love that they're doing this highly dangerous thing in a freight yard in LA rather than a remote lab in the desert like in real life

#monsterdon

Hey Jerry stop joking around with that flame thrower

#monsterdon

Even in 1958 LA traffic was so bad that people used helicopters to avoid it.
#monsterdon

#monsterdon what do they tell the kid? "I'm sorry, kid. Your unloving parents were both CONSUMED BY BLOOD RUST"

"Under, Hand. Hand, Dunn. Under, Dunn. Hand, Dunn."

#monsterdon

THRILL as she DIALS A PHONE! #Monsterdon

Cheese it! It's the fuzz!!

#monsterdon

Spock:🖖
Kirk: Why can’t you be more human?!

#spacemasterx7 #monsterdon

Phone Man and Army Man recover a tape of the scientists monologue, both to learn what happened and to ensure that this movie continues to be 25% monologue. (because the 50, it's one of those weird magnetic tapes that is not in a cassette).

Following the "dust off and nuke it from orbit" theory, but with conventional weapons, Phone Man and Army Man then opt to burn the house down, and their jeep, and are then thoroughly decontaminated in a Surprise Shower Scene.

#monsterdon

Holy moly - they're just going to burn the house? No gathering evidence or figuring out what's going on? Just a reel of tape?

#monsterdon

So, was professor cooking alien chili and the pot overflowed? I'm missing some context for the slime draping everything.
#Monsterdon

Ooo, shower scene! #Monsterdon

As scientists go, this guy's a fucking idiot. #monsterdon

lol, just walk right into the alien weirdness, breathe in it's spores...

#monsterdon

"You touch me again I'll kill you"
Funny, that's what the red slime in the other room just said too.

#Monsterdon

Who had "attempted sexual assault" on their #monsterdon bingo card today?

Oh, he's growing giant avocados. #Monsterdon

These people seem really annoyed to be learning that there is life in outer space

#Monsterdon
