I bet he feels silly about that card now.

#Monsterdon

Joan, you minx!

I didn't see that coming

#Monsterdon

Who are these people and why did one of them just kill the other? #monsterdon

Dude was hit in front from behind with a sword that isn't a sword or I dunno what that was actually. EDIT: I guess it was the poker? It looked really weird for one, but ok.

Well, at least we know whodunnit.

Actually, no we don't. Who is this? Who was that? Who are these people? What is going on?

#Monsterdon

lol at 'wine for blood' and Joan Collins wielding a sword...

#Monsterdon

"There can be only one." #monsterdon

It was the hats, wasn't it? She hated the hats.
#Monsterdon

MELANIA, TAKE SOME FUCKING NOTES

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Wait. Is he wearing a shriners cap?
#Monsterdon

well this chap is brimming with whimsy. Seems out of place so far. the whimsical whiplash!!!
#Monsterdon

Hrm, a Fez on Christmas. (I mean, he's probably supposed to be a Shriner?)

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

See, Doctor? This is why fezzes are _not_ cool.

#Monsterdon

riddles or sexual favours required to leave this place. I bet anything.
#Monsterdon

It's so hard to source proper sackcloth these days. Our cult had to switch to polyester.

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

I mean if you made an appointment for after the catacomb tour that's on you honey. #monsterdon

Sure go on a tour of a creepy old catacombs what can go wrong? #monsterdon

#monsterdon Looks like we've got a little crosstalk to Dragonslayer a few years later.

@blogdiva Very strange... #Monsterdon #TalesfromtheCrypt 🪦🧟

Then again, I did crawl a cemetery once looking for unique names for characters.

This is already the worse Home and Gardens Extreme Makeover ever.

#monsterdon #talesfromthecrypt

@bunnyhero Someone in the cast or crew last name was Fries. JITB has a coupon right now for free fries. I could get 2 tacos and the fries and that would be $1.08 and nut a huge meal, but I won;t be hungry. #monsterdon

the way people wore suits to go on graveyard tours....

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🏛️💀🔪🪞💝🧙😱

they didn't listen to the guide. They're dooooomed.

Dead end. Dead end! Dead end dead end Dean end, dead end dead ennnnn-nnnnnnd, it's a dead end

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

You're already lost?

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Not a very good docent, losing his whole tour group
#monsterdon

this is the kind of place where you can catch 15 diseases just by hanging around too long. Ancient medieval diseases.
#Monsterdon

“Please keep close together”

I feel like this tour guide is used to dealing with small children

#Monsterdon

these don't look like the sort of people who go on tours of churchyards....

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Is this where we find out the Cryptkeeper is Catholic

Starting right now it's #monsterdon where we watch a movie together via the miracle of hitting play at the same time. Tonight we're watching Tales From The Crypt (1972)

And don't forget about #monsterdonSavesChristmas – donate to a charity before the end of the film to enter to win some fabulous prizes (check the hashtag for more details)

Happy solstice to the Monsterdon crew. This watchparty has helped me through a lot as a chronically ill person who can't get out much, especially during the holiday season

@Taweret I just got back home, so I can join!

Wheeee!!!

#Monsterdon

also, careful with that podium, the plaster of paris isn't quite set

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

I do not remember this Tube station, is it new?
#Monsterdon

Cattycoombs

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Where's the little plaque? There's supposed to be a little plaque.

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt

I don't want to actually live in a horror movie, but I'd love to live in some of these movie castles we watch, with catacombs and big iron gates and secret passages

Oh and creepy butlers

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon
Does the graveyard tour have a happy ending?

If he "takes care of the place while the master is away", I'm going to bed.

Masterpiece Theater or #Monsterdon?

BILL GATES? WHY ARE WE

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Bach and Joan Collins and Peter Cushing, oh my!

I'm in a toccata in fugue state

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt #MonsterdonSavesChristmas

Ooh, I hadn't realized Peter Cushing is in this. AWESOME.

#monsterdon

Geeze right into Toccata and Fugue. Very by the book. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Yes, this is what Bach had in mind when he composed this. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

oh good, it's hammond organ music for our... enjoyment?

@moira This week’s word cloud: one giant “arf”

#Monsterdon

@aburka @Taweret @xoagray @ryan cookies for contributions to both charity and to the 空気¹ of #Monsterdon

Two movies in three weeks featuring characters who can't die being dismembered.

#Monsterdon
#TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Great job team, another movie successfully launched into space. Arf arf arf, arf arf arf arf ARF arf arf, and arf as arfways to @Taweret for arfing.

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

@diazona @WhiteCatTamer I agree - an infrequent one-off might be okay, but four additional themed features a year would cut too much into our allotment of bad movies #monsterdon

@diazona schrodinger's reflective orb

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

@moira oooh yes you're right, I didn't look closely enough

Although technically anything transparent will also be reflective if you put it in the right environment

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCryptmas

@ketmorco Yeah, off you go to the Bad Place Major #monsterdon

@diazona I think it's lensing, not reflective. But if others want to claim it as reflecting I'm not gonna make a fuss xD

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

@moira Definitely at least one of those two should be legit, if not both

Plus we established that there was, in fact, a reflective orb, although it wasn't at all obvious

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCryptmas

I'm counting cleaning up the murder rug for the evil santa _and_ the junk man having the house nice and tidy as cleaning up for company so don't @ me, I think it's bingo

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

This film is a lot more relaxing so far.
5000% less rich creeps.
#Monsterdon

Guess it's time for the #Monsterdon #MonsterdonSavesChristmas #Afterparty . Giveaways and the blooper reel from riffs that didn't make the final cut.

@WhiteCatTamer

Some action-horror-comedy candidates maybe?

https://eggplant.place/collection/03cZpUj3Saf3c31QSUrgE0

#Monsterdon

@log At least it was a visually arresting set, so thanks #monsterdon

And... okay lots of guys from Toho movies. Way more than last movie in this Dracula's vacation homes of Japan trilogy.

#Monsterdon #EvilofDracula

No joke: had music on random and the next song that was going to play before I remembered about Monsterdon was “Die With A Smile”, which I remembered after the movie ended like that, lol.

Great fun! Also if Monsterdon doesn’t already do this I think they should watch good horror movies during the month of April, but only if they’re also comedies. Like Young Frankenstein, which came to mind for some reason (thought the blind guy who castigated the supe was from the med school scene).
#Monsterdon

Okay, it's time . All I can say looking at these numbers is that you all have surpassed expectations so far it's hard to believe! I'm not gonna' lie, I cried a couple times reading these numbers.

Last year the total was about $2600.00.

This year... The grand total with the donation match from @paco @steggy and others, is so far over that it's hard to believe.

#MonsterdonSavesChristmas brought in a mind blowing $12,321.26 for charity this year!

You're amazing, every single one of you. :)

#Monsterdon

@diazona If it works for coffee... Coldbrew chicken. #monsterdon

And that guy from Sun Vulcan
And Godzilla vs Mecha Godzilla

@RobynGoodfellow The Mariachi (?) band packed up maybe 20 minutes ago so it finally thematically calmed down here.

#Monsterdon

Wow, my Bingo card nearly filled up.
