I sense a racism coming on. #Monsterdon

You ever accidentally become important to the cult of the shark god?
#Monsterdon #MakoJawsofDeath

Sharks love, man kills.
#Monsterdon #MakoJawsofDeath

Meat cute?

#Monsterdon #MakoJawsOfDeath1976

How do none of these vans have a wizard painted on the size? or a shark! A mermaid?
#Monsterdon #MakoJawsofDeath

"You crazy, but in a good way!"
You stay safe, Marine burger-flipper dude.

"What is, is. Science makes them dumb." Thanks laconic hero guy.

ODDJOB! Finally a movie star with some chops.

Endless boring bar scene. Swimming bikini girl & stripper… totally ignored by eveyrone. Well, sure, we all want to see the sharks.

#monsterdon #jawsofdeath1976

Or hero/villain might be a psychopath
#Monsterdon #MakoJawsofDeath

This gentleman is not at all unhinged. Perfectly healthy fellow. #Monsterdon

The director really has a thing for pretty women swimming, doesn't he? #Monsterdon

I... cannot justify this

and yet...

#monsterdon

@diazona innit? #Monsterdon

"the birth of a shark, is the first step to Humanity's domination of the Galaxy!"

#Monsterdon

@patioboater same, it would explain so much

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

#monsterdon
A movie about a man in a jellyfish hat.

Perhaps there's the slightly better message of: don't be mean to people who are different... or they'll turn into jellyfish monster things and kill you... I guess?

Is that actually any better?

#monsterdon

@WhiteCatTamer people comma alleged

#monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

So this is just Shark Murders the movie?
#Monsterdon #TheJawsOfDeath1976

That little guy is kicking ass. And calling to the sharks for assistance disposing of the bodies.
#Monsterdon #MakoJawsofDeath

Maybe someone could make a sequel where fragments of Egon’s crazy research float ashore, and some enterprising young scientist gets a bit too curious and cell becomes the next mister jellyfish.

That way, they can come up with some pseudo science to explain Egon’s transformation because we’re left with very little here.

I would watch it.

#Monsterdon

@moira Yeah I don't think it was as bad as some. Mostly it was just too predictable, none of that plot was a surprise. #Monsterdon

And then they fucked off into the Everglades.

Like the best #monsterdon movies, Sting of Death could be fairly described as, "That sure was technically a movie." Maybe it's better when we see less of the creature, at least when it's gonna look like that.

Goodnight folks, keep an eye out for @Taweret 's poll so you too can feel guilt for our collective hubris, and see y'all next week!

No fair, I had commercials which means I am still watching this shitty movie wondering about the costume designer who was like, "we'll just use an old balloon"

#monsterdon

@jsadow

I should have said "writers". Here's some background:

https://knowyourmeme.com/sensitive/memes/the-writers-barely-disguised-fetish

We see this a lot on #monsterdon.

That was fun. 😁 Thanks for hosting, @Taweret!

#Monsterdon

And so they fucked off into the Everglades, never to be seen again, probably. Hopefully. Fuck those guys.

Well that was certainly a movie that we watched together. I take it back, by the way - the costume was great, but I'm still pissed about calling a siphonophore a jellyfish with cobra venom. Fuck you very much, movie.

Thanks for making it fun, fam, but the Owlbear needs some sleep. Take care of each other. Be kind, spread love, play indie games.

Goodnight. Love you guys.

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath

Dancing is fatal.

#monsterdon #stingofdeath1966

How do you rate a film that has found the most awesome way to suck?

Ready for Mako Jaws of Death

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

movie was kinda ass, but also had so (too?) many ass-shots
well played
#monsterdon

This movie was so bad. But in the best ways. The perfect monster movie for riffing. Thanks @Taweret and all of Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #StingofDeath

That movie made me happy.

Such a silly little movie.

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonBingo I correctly guessed that there would be Butts! But I nearly made a square that said “Even more butts” and I regret not doing that now.

We have just watched the Florida Man of monster movies

Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting! Now on to a different and possibly more lively marine predator in the double feature Mako: The Jaws of Death

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN!!! #Monsterdon #AfterParty

#monsterdon the footage tells me they wanted to get the most out of a fanboat rental, but the music tells me "Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

Looking forward to the sequel ... Dark Forehead Spot of Death!

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath

@jivens@beige.party Maybe someone lost a bet.

#Monsterdon #SringOfDeath1966

Maybe the real monster was the friends we made along the way.

#monsterdon

And the movie ends with them fucking off into the swamp. Though I guess it doesn't *need* any denouement, really.

#Monsterdon #StingofDeath1966

So Egon’s brilliant research is just lost in the Everglades?

#Monsterdon

"Look at what your father laughed at" is really the best pickup line

#monsterdon

I feel such deep shame having watched this movie with other people.

#Monsterdon

Cmon guys, we ha ve a party to do!
#monsterdon
#stingofdeath1966

#monsterdon So that's it, just... toss the end card? So this was principally money laundering! I KNEW IT!

#Monsterdon 🪼🪼 😬 💀 😱

wait. what?

R.I.P. Egon’s bag

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

‘Twas exploding jellyfish tank killed the beast

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath

Close your eyes. Don't think about the movie. Don't think. Maybe someday someone will find an answer to why this movie exists.
#Monsterdon #StingofDeath

1940s romance music over the end

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

Fight Choreography: Seymour Butts

#monsterdon

"It was so so horrible" I mean you're not wrong, Karen, but it still wasn't STAR ODYSSEY so we're still ahead #Monsterdon #StingOfDeath #StingOfDeath1966

You know, if they cut two thirds of this movie, and replaced the air-boat stuff with a futuristic submarine, this might've made a passable episode of Stingray.

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath #StingOfDeath1966

That's our explosion?! #boo #hiss #monsterdon

Thank god Dad put a shirt on.

#Monsterdon

@kinsale42 It is the perhaps the best film ever made; Grand Illusion and Citizen Kane don't even compare.

#monsterdon

That was surprisingly hideous

#Monsterdon

The movie is a tragedy, but not as intended.

#monsterdon

Okay melting and dying were-jellyfish Egon effect actually looks horrifyingly good. When not pixelated that is.
#Monsterdon #StingofDeath

He even wired his secret lair to blow. He really did go full supervillain. Kudos to Eton to committing to the bit 🦹‍♀️🪼🪼🪼

#Monsterdon #SringOfDeath1966

"it's too late"

it was too late about 90 seconds into the movie.

#monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

#Monsterdon
and the girl just lies there.

#monsterdon No lair is complete without a little bleached skull on some cave feature or other

Egon is just high on bath salts again… this is all just a hallucination

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

Why aren't his tentacles of doom having any effect this time?
#monsterdon
#stingofdeath1966

Right in the 20 inches. #Monsterdon #StingOfDeath

Did not watch #Monsterdon tonight, but I did want to say "Death Sting: Sting of Death. When they want to sting you, not because of who you are, but for different reasons entirely!"

This costume deserves a screencap.

#Monsterdon

That skull made me laugh pretty hard

💀

Well done, skull

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #stingofdeath1966

Is this.. the greatest fight scene of all time?

@Lazarou oh now there's an idea, could a jellyfish hotbox itself 🤔

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

who brings a road flare to a jellyfish fight

HOYT

#monsterdon

"And now, while John and the professor chase Egon and the unconscious Miss Karen through the Everglades, a word from Mutual of Omaha."

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath

This is so gloriously fucking bad

#monsterdon

So, is it jellyfish…splooge…that turns him into whatever this is?

#Monsterdon

This fight scene is the exact opposite of the alley fight scene in They Live. Just as long, nothing but cuts, boring as shit.
#Monsterdon #StingofDeath

I'd scream & faint too... at the sheer audacity of the film just making a bloke with an inflated bag on his head the "monster"

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

JELLYFISH PUGILISM

#monsterdon

yes, jellyfish fear fire

just like frankenstein

#Monsterdon

I know this fight looks weird, but lemme ask you, when was the last time YOU fought a man-sized jellyfish?!?

#Monsterdon

I just noticed the human skull in the cave, it's a nice touch 💀

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath

Does Karen have cramps?

#Monsterdon

Okay, _this_ is some vintage Doctor Who-scale set building right here. This fight can't be anything _but_ comedy

#monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966

Hooo boy this may be hard for people with some negative sexual experiences to watch :/
#Monsterdon

Why does he have a transformation sequence? Why is it not just a suit covered with jellyfish?

#Monsterdon #StingofDeath1966

Remember Octaman? I miss Octaman. #Monsterdon #StingOfDeath

She’s terrified by plastic bags.

#Monsterdon

OH MY GODS THAT IS THE BEST COSTUME EVER!

This movie has redeemed itself.

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath

okay so the scuba suit IS supposed to be his body as a were-jellyfish

we cleared that up at least

#monsterdon

What is that jellyfish bukkake (sp?) #Monsterdon

...what?

#Monsterdon #StingofDeath1966

"DO YOU LIKE ME NOW, KAREN?"

#Monsterdon

You must become your jellyfish #fursona.

#Monsterdon #SringOfDeath1966

I think I may have preferred the butt dancing over this for padding out the film. Tough call
#monsterdon  

That goo glows under a black light, right? #Monsterdon

Can someone get the cat off the electric keyboard NOW.
please
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #stingofdeath1966

Ahh.. the Jacob's Ladder of goo transformation...

Someone needs to teach Egon how to use that shaving gel. #Monsterdon

Well that's one AO3 tag-worthy closeup

#monsterdon

Egon is experimenting with tapioca pudding bukakke.

#Monsterdon #StingOfDeath1966
