if the guys firing are unfriendly it’s not friendly fire just fire #Monsterdon

Friendly fire?

#Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

Willie, Tyrone! Shoot the damn thing. #monsterdon

Tactical error to not control the rifle barrel before throwing the guy holding it 10m. #Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

Classic creature with draped womam pose #Monsterdon

What are the rambo people?
#Monsterdon

that rambo is a total flanker
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Now, for anyone heavy into DC, Swamp Thing is in the swamp. He's literally knee-deep in his power. Frikken unstoppable almost. The power of The Green.

this man now has

THE POWER OF THE SWAMP

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #SwampThing 🎵 that's me in the swamp now / i've got a girl to save / and i'm not sure if i can do it / oh no i've swamped too much / i haven't swamped enough 🎵

Guess who!

#monsterdon

Nice camera work delaying the full reveal of the suit, too.

#monsterdon #swampthing1982

fuck trigger discipline, just be manhandling and squeezing that thing the entire time #monsterdon

Swamp Thing caress.
#Monsterdon

Please say she's just pretending to drown. #monsterdon

I brought pizza for Swamp Thing. Eat up, darling!

#Monsterdon #SwampThing

Monster paw!

#monsterdon

we have swamp thing!!!! right on cue. but also we have no non-monster protagonists. so our only choice is to hope that the swamp thing overcomes the militia and is accepted into society #monsterdon

@LuluHelle To her credit she does appear to be choosing watery death

#Monsterdon

Those mercenaries are a bunch of knuckleheads. The only reason they made it this far is because of the inside guy. #Monsterdon

Is this David Hess' most, uh, normal role? #Monsterdon

Is Ferret his given name or his family name? #monsterdon

MONSTER!

THE BOATFLIPPER!

#monsterdon

We have swamp arm!
#Monsterdon

boyfriend says hi.

#monsterdon

Pizza arrived during a climax moment. Did Feynman survive the exploding luminol? Who's drowning?

#Monsterdon #SwampThing

#monsterdon Come-downance!!

#Monsterdon 👨‍🔬 🔪 🧟‍♂️ 🥬 🙅‍♀️ 😱

SWAMP THING!

#monsterdon Fuck yo boat!

Are those digital wipes between scenes there to remind this is based on a comic book?

#Monsterdon

hmm choice
rapists in a boat
orrrrr
watery death
watery death pls
#Monsterdon

MONSTER TIME #monsterdon #TheSwampThing

@jonny I do like an occasional “foreshadowed monster shows up at the 2/3 mark for the climax”, myself, but that’s real tricky to pull off. #monsterdon

These guys in camo with little sprigs of greenery in their caps look silly #monsterdon

How else were we gonna see her in a wet tee?

#Monsterdon

Teach her how to swim? I thought she was getting a bath! Make up your mind!
#Monsterdon

leeches get sneeches

#monsterdon #SwampThing

merely being pressed up against the side of a tree does not constitute hiding. you must take into consideration whether you are also in the middle of where everyone is #monsterdon

minutes later i can't get over the unnecessary face peel. he could have just said "you didn't meet the previous guy" or something, but we had to have a rubber mask #Monsterdon

Aw he left the locket behind, such a sentimental mercenary.

#monsterdon

I'm gonna teach this lady how to swim! The first lesson is...

fill your lungs with air and you can float on the water surface! Try flipping onto your back, it's easier. You'll get the hang of it. Do you want the water wings?

#ActuallyNice

#monsterdon

Huzzah! My favorite character survived that mess of nonsense! #monsterdon

i think someone is about to be revenged
#Monsterdon

Uh oh. Are we setting up a redeemable henchperson? #Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

I feel like that's supposed to be Nef Beatty #Monsterdon

@Taweret yeah it's kind of disturbing

#Monsterdon

And now for a history lesson digression.
Swamp Thing is arguably the most famous muck man made of bog plants, but he wasn't the first.
The first (probably) was IT! a short story from 1940.

#Monsterdon #SwampThing

Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown

#Monsterdon

oh neat, mission impossible gag before mission impossible?
#Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

#monsterdon did they ADR this one guy with Gilbert Gottfried, but like, only every third line?

Ok, so the backstory was a prophesy. #Monsterdon

oh gosh, those goons look so lost
#monsterdon

again, DIG THAT WAVY WIPE

#monsterdon

Oh my god the wavy-cut transition this movie's editor really left it all on the field.

#Monsterdon

Whaddya call a scene transition like that, a clam wipe

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🔬 🔪 🧟‍♂️ 🥬 🙅‍♀️ 😱

Wait mask guy put his mask back on?

@pngwen Better than my "jumped up and down in my office forgetting about the rolling desk chair behind me from my co-worker, tripped over it and fell" celebration?

(no coworkers were present, It was a totally unobserved prat fall)

#Monsterdon

Ah, the ooze transition into a reverse ooze transition. Love it!
#Monsterdon

I suppose it isn't worth pointing out that arcane is an adjective.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Transitions by disco-man..

I mean

it is convenient they did all this in a swamp, so they can easily destroy the place.

#monsterdon

Professor Hyde-White!?
#monsterdon #scoobydoo

@Violinknitter you figure with such advanced fake face tech that they'd do better with the fake accents #Monsterdon

Nonononono... I don't want that guy to be the monster 😑 #monsterdon

Mission Impossible villain mask reveal!

#Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

#monsterdon An ooze-wipe?! AMAZING

Love that transition.

#Monsterdon

[Born On The Bayou by Creedence Clearwater Revival begin playing]

#monsterdon

iiiiiiiii ain't got no boooooooooood-ies! no-bodies-no

#monsterdon #SwampThing

Oooh! Aaaah! Underwater fireworks.
#Monsterdon #SwampThing

That was an interesting fade... Lucas never used the curtain fade!

#monsterdon

How'd Robert Englund's stunt double get in this one? #Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

I don't see how killing the scientist developing your immortality serum is the best approach...

#Monsterdon

No way, Johnny Storm!
#Monsterdon

I don't think Nietzsche meant it that way; Arcane should go back and take a philosophy course.

#Monsterdon

@nev i thought she said "our dad" earlier #Monsterdon

Okay, that *is* an impressive fire sequence. 💯 points to the movie.

#monsterdon #swampthing1982

you just know that stuntman on fire had the best day at work ever #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon
Will he become a swamp thing?

Oh heck yeah. A really really long man on fire stunt. Well three different shots, but all long ones.
#Monsterdon #SwampThing

Gratuitous flame suit stunt.

#Monsterdon

Man so on fire he's gonna look like Freddy Kruger when he's done. #monsterdon

That's some really dumb looking bad guy with the headband
#monsterdon

@fabio NOOOOOOOO!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Swamp Rambo: "You drew first swamp blood..."

Wait, are they married? Did she walk in on her husband kissing another woman, and get shot by a terrorist, in the same damn day?

edit: more attentive Monsterdonians inform me they're brother and sister

#Monsterdon

NOW AND FOREVER I AM

SWAMP-THING-IX

#monsterdon #SwampThing

The original Human Torch!

#Monsterdon #SwampThing

#monsterdon Good flame suit stunt.

TOASTY!

#Monsterdon

Our Muldoon pulled a Mission Impossible. What. #monsterdon

Every 80s action movie has at least one man on fire shot #monsterdon #TheSwampThing

good 'flaming man' stuntwork there

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

There's your answer to the not-Aussie accent that wasn't identifiable as anything else.

LOUIS JOURDAN

Watch out, he's got a snake in his pants!

#monsterdon

Were the drums really that necessary?
#Monsterdon

okay, actual points for the ladies in this movie not being afraid to punch a dude and try to make a run for it.

#monsterdon

Ooh! Face removal! He’s… French? #Monsterdon

Most movies high a noted British thespian to be their villain. But here we have Louis Jourdan, a scenery chewing Frenchman!
#Monsterdon #SwampThing

Oh hey, this is where they filmed the album cover for Wish You Were Here? Makes sense.

Welcome to the machine!
