#monsterdon Kill him! Kill him!

@davesdogmaggie #monsterdon

Schrodinger's metaphor.

"...MINE TOO!"

Oh this is awkward

#monsterdon

If it continues to double in size every day, it's going to be a BIG problem pretty quick.....#monsterdon

The fungus can't start eating people quick enough. #Monsterdon

You go girl!

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

LOOK, _mom_, Bement is a feeder school for Deerfield, Exeter, and Andover, his future there is

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"will he be a good father"

sir, you shipped your son off to a boarding school and you've been ignoring your wife in favor of a ganglion for the past couple hours. what do you care?

#monsterdon

What? Is her son inside one of those bell jars? #monsterdon

And I've got HAWAII

#monsterdon

@Taweret fun, probably

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon That guy was drafted for WW2 and he's still working in the Army?

Ganglion. In a fungus.

I'm what?

I never thought I'd say this, but let's get at least some Man with the X-ray Eyes level science in here?

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Men. They just never shut up, amirite? #monsterdon #spacemasterx7

The pointless Bunsen burner going on his bench is really bothering me. Poor fire safety is the real monster in this movie. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Why is this man with a degree a private? People with degrees get to be Officers. Or is that a new thing? #monsterdon

@Taweret Well, it's currently on that guy's mustache trying to figure out how it can incubate and multiply in such an environment. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

It's a huge connected brain.. but I won't tell anyone and I will fight with my wife ..

This cigarette sure does a lot of smoke
#monsterdon

I feel like Evil Paul Frees' tape recordings ought to be intercut with shots of a rust-red Muppet eating everything.

#monsterdon

I'm genuinely surprised by how annoyed I am at her rattling the window during the monologue. #monsterdon

So he's taken the space fungus home and grown his own strain? They must have a very liberal IRB at his university.

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Is he gonna kill her with the spores? #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Oh yay, more dictation, maybe we'll also get a monologue, a soliloquy, and a one-man show.
#monsterdon

#monsterdon I'm going to put these spores on this annoying woman BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T HAVE THE COFFEE!!!

The Not Scientist Brylcreem dude looks terrifyingly like young Billy Graham

#Monsterdon

"I AM BUSY WITH SCIENCE WOMAN!"
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

"Not until we get this settled!"

"All right, wait in there."

he comes out of the lab

"OK, now what's so important?"

"I want my Maypo!"

#monsterdon

Talk to her about ganglions, that'll calm her right down

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

His mustache is so baffling lol #monsterdon #spacemasterx7

For this being a heavy dialogue movie, the acting is holding up well.
#Monsterdon

There all part of a ganglion!

#monsterdon

@Taweret They appear to be Space Muppets #monsterdon

This dude is gonna feed his ex to the space brains, isn't he?
#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"Ganglion"

DRINK!

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

This movie is going to be a hard watch. Dr. Pommer there is none other than Paul Frees, the voice of Disney's Haunted Mansion's Ghost Host. #monsterdon

Is it a fungus, or does it have ganglia?

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

wait, you were this jokers assistant, and you still wanted to hang out with him?

#monsterdon

Too fancy, eh? I've heard of your type.

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

The "reasonable precautions" square on my bingo board will not be checked tonight.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"In other words, he's an incel!"

#monsterdon

oh there it is

#monsterdon

They drafted a grad student and he didn't get a deferral. Harsh #monsterdon

great, he's growing xenomorph eggs

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@josh0 lol, and extra lol because of how old microscopes actually are

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

but if he's so narrow how does he have room for a

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

The BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE

#monsterdon

It wasn't until he started declaiming that I remembered that Paul Frees is in this picture.

#monsterdon
#SpaceMasterX7

A young Michael Chicton must have been *salivating* over this film.

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

#Monsterdon chekov's baking science?

@paco SAME.
#Monsterdon

We're so very, very close to actual smoking ... there we go, light up that cancer stick!

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

#monsterdon

There's life in outer space! Oh, well let's have some coffee.

Blood Rust.

Neither blood, nor rust. Discuss.

#monsterdon

I have reason to think that the fungus has developed civilization, where they compose Vagner like operas.

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Blood for the blood rust!

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Of course you see "red" and your mind immediately goes to "fungus" and not "rust"

It's a good day for dubious science

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

well theres no life here on earth, to judge by this movie.

#monsterdon

I don't think you should manipulate it without gloves doc.
#monsterdon

Something is about to get spilled for a bad reason, isn't it

#Monsterdon

Why does she dig this d-bag? #monsterdon

He's on something all right

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Hahah, Dr. Mustache can’t pronounce “protein”

He clearly doesn’t CrossFit

#Monsterdon

...no. The thing that some people thought might be life on Mars was more blue/green. And it turned out to be dark areas getting dust covered (and uncovered)

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Why can't you be more human!?

Bzzt, boop, because I can't.

#monsterdon

Do you ever miss the breakneck, nonstop action of The Monolith Monsters.

Yeah.....yeah...me too.

#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

Today, blood rust is the street name for the latest super-potent opiate drug #monsterdon #spacemasterx7

#monsterdon Blood rust. Great name. Not disturbing. Oops, harridan woman is back, now the phone is ringing... quick, beat her with the phone receiver!

It just shows how much further a 'B'-picture—if that—could go.

—or maybe it's all a way of establishing this scientist as a bad'un.

#monsterdon
#SpaceMasterX7

"My experiment is coming out fine. And so is this permanent wave!"

#monsterdon

Doctor, this is hand. Big boo-boo on pinky! #monsterdon

The lab practices, the terrible lab practices ​:floofCry:​

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Magnification…. Magnification…. Magnification

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🍄 🍄‍🟫 🚀 👽 😱

I'm pretty sure Charles is that person, who has come into contact with the spores and will henceforth be carrying them about

I CAN'T be more human, I don't have ROOM for ANY MORE ORGANS!

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"Because of its colour I called this organism Blood Rust." unfortunately this is necessary because the film is black and white

#Monsterdon

The narration has been replaced by dictation. Not sure that's an improvement. #monsterdon

Wait, we've gone down the road of "Mars is actually covered in rust colored fungus" and not the occam's razor of, you know, iron oxide?

#Monsterdon

@gnomon You could always use @miru! https://miru.miyaku.media

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Uhh, doc is a kinda of a bitch, isn't he?
#monsterdon #spacemasterx7

His theory is that Mars was infected. Okay #monsterdon

Who is this guy to her?!
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon this guy's feeding The Blob

holy shit "bloodrust" is a hell of a name
#monsterdon

Hey, he's a very early Rustacean! :D

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@femme_mal 90% of scifi movies of this era are red scare, really. this one is just especially unsubtle #monsterdon

Oh he is just a voice over for most of his screen time. Huh.
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

That IS a special canister. It has a threadless screw on wooden top.

Most special.

#Monsterdon

Loving the obviously air tight glass cover

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

The Organism
#monsterdon

Watching the hashtag blur by, barely able to keep up. Love to see it even if I'm missing most of it. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

HE DIDNT PUT ANYTHING ON THERE
#monsterdon

SPORES

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Oh wait! This is the origin story of the Ghost Host. Someone got fed up an kacked him. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

#monsterdon Okay, there's the rust and fungus link. Doctors a putz, but carry on mustache-man.

Maybe it's the Martian's Red Weed #Monsterdon

So… we have a cheating wife and a scuzzy lover subplot in our space fungus movie…

Is the fungus the Hero? Because I'm feeling sympathetic towards it right now.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

With Sinister Music ™️ in the background, he opens the little tiny canister of Fungus Amongus

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon "i saw that mars was red, so came to the conclusion it was a fungus" what

Why does the microscope have a binocular mask on camera?
