We're used to blindness in the army.

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt #MonsterdonSavesChristmas

i want to see these old guys dumping their swill down Captain Dumbass's drawers.

#monsterdon

"Good morning." doesn't quite have the same punch as "Good day!" as a way of saying "fuck off" in a polite British asshole way.
#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

At least let them snuggle up with Shane at night, you bastard.

#Monsterdon

“We feel things more acutely”

You know, even if you don’t have superhuman senses because of blindness, you still deserve decent food and a warm place to live

#Monsterdon

VIOLENCE THIS MOTHERFUCKER *ahem* sorry. #monsterdon

Yes he is! Patrick Magee: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0535861/

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

kill him kill him kill him

#monsterdon

@jivens ooh I need to watch that sometime

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCryptmas

#Monsterdon🏛️💀🔪🪞💝🧙😱

um, dude, this is not a good management strategy

Did you sell the old blankets? How much of an evil man are you? Like even by cartoonish movie villain that's alot.
#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

This seems a lot like what private equity does when buying long term care facilities. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

i'm sure they'll have plenty of money after they fire you, chum.

#monsterdon

oh one of THESE fuckers. OK who wants to bed he gets blinded or his dog eats him. #monsterdon

[tapping the "thatcher was a symptom" sign insistently]

#Monsterdon

austerity FTW
#monsterdon

@amyfou @cherizilla woohoo! 🎉

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCryptmas

"I'll get you an extra blanket."

*Feels around tiny boxes and glass jars. Gotta be around here somewhere.*

Yes. I too keep my blankets inside tiny glass jars.

#Monsterdon

See? Your institute would not be freezing if you were part of the EU!

#monsterdon

The role of Shane was originally offered to London, star of The Littlest Hobo.

#Monsterdon

"stone cold"

Steve Austin?! #monsterdon

That speech was curiously brief from new high mucketymuck taking charge. Guess he never got his MBA. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Super Nintendo Rogers.
Got it.
#Monsterdon

@klu9 I see! Thank you. lol #Monsterdon #TalesfromtheCrypt 🪦🧟

@aburka good call

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCryptmas

Dammit movie. Is something bad going to happen to Shane? #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

The only thing I like about this Major so far is his dog. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🏛️💀🔪🪞💝🧙😱

Shane did a bork 💞

Wow, genre-savvy.

That kitchen extra probably knows they're in trouble.
You don't, like, hype up and overstim the crowd....

@kshernandez

A wanker

Brit Murray

#Monsterdon

Am I pulling this out of my ass or was that guy in Young Frankenstein?
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972 you shoulda taken the life insurance check, lady ;_;

@blogdiva I think it was a Citroen. #Monsterdon

@diazona anyway I came within 1 form signature of quitting and ended up switching advisers #monsterdon

The role of Fuddy Dudrumple there was originally offered to Harvey Korman.

#Monsterdon

My name is Dickhead. Major Dickhead. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

At least the people in this one know they are in a monkey's paw story. Which makes it a little less predictable. #monsterdon

@diazona he would also start each meeting with a mini lecture on some robotics concept which I am convinced was just to show how much smarter he was than all of us #monsterdon

For a second I thought that guy getting his plate of food was Christopher Lloyd! LOL!

#Monsterdon #TailsfromTheCryp1972

Enjoy your giant plate of boiled potatoes and my stinky breath
#monsterdon

guess she found out the hard way after all

🪦 TRIVIA FROM THE CRYPT 💀

Our feature "Tales" and "Tower of Evil" (1972) were shooting around the same time at Shepperton Studios.

So you will see some shared sets in each film. The cave might be the easiest to remember and look for.

#TalesFromTheCrypt

all i want for Christmas is crackers and a seeing-eye dog #Monsterdon

Isn't this guy in Clockwork Orange?

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

For any Brits in the room. What's a "tosser?" #Monsterdon #TalesfromtheCrypt 🪦🧟

Great Scott! #monsterdon

#monsterdon "To warn you of what will happen".

Thing is, none of these have been remotely plausible. They're all hing on magic. I wouldn't believe the warning. Who would?

Shane doesn't know you, he's going to his trainer. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt #MonsterdonSavesChristmas

Typical grieving widow behavior.

#monsterdon

Please tell me the dog is going to be ok.
#Monsterdon

This set looks particularly like a Monty Python set. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

“…right, so with the additional Same Day Delivery and fog machine services, the total comes to £7.8 million.”
“But that would ruin me, and just when I was rich again!”
“Ah, yep, that’d be the whole ‘paw’ thing.”
“Well, I suppose that does make sense…”
#Monsterdon

Who's up heeding the warnings?

#Monsterdon

These sure are 'special' effects. Why even bother? #monsterdon

Shane!

#Monsterdon

Cujo?
#monsterdon

@Taweret@timeloop.cafe Doin' me a concern here

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

@combatwombat 🎉

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCryptmas

Oh lawd Enid NEVER say "forever" #Monsterdon

Please don't hurt doggo #monsterdon

This guy's like, "Wait, you mean if I go home I have three wishes waiting for me?"

Crypt keeper just explained the rules, he's better off now than he was before

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Crypt Keeper is kind of a tool #monsterdon

PUPPY #monsterdon

#Monsterdon🏛️💀🔪🪞💝🧙😱

why do you have a loop in your hands bowler dude?

Pupper!

#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Death by mall katana. What a way to go.

#monsterdon #talesfromthecrypt

I mean... Reanimator showed us that chopped up into bits and unable to die wasn't so bad from a sinister plotting standpoint. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

"Major Rodgers" 🫡

oh wait that's wrong

(NB this is referencing that running joke from How I Met Your Mother)

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCryptmas

How can he be alive and tormented forever if he's dead in the crypt?? #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

@diazona well there's that question answered #monsterdon

ok you guys are in here for how one of you killed your husband, one of you killed a kindly old janitor guy, one of you had a secret family, and uh one of you was cursed by a monkeys paw to live forever and have your organs all over the place and stuff #monsterdon

Well clearly the heart attack was from all that pasta

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Dude! That's some dark stuff. #Monsterdon

Is he being chased by Kamen Rider?

#Monsterdon

Yeah, that will teach you to go bankrupt! How dare you!!
#monsterdon

#TalesFromtheCrypt1972
#monsterdon
Plenty of practical to roll in.

She's really bad at killing people *and* un-killing people.

#Monsterdon

@Taweret Well he did apparently speculate with a bunch of money entrusted to him?

#Monsterdon

Perfect. Chef's kiss. No notes. They knew what they were getting into, they did it anyway. It went as horribly as expected, if not worse. Immortal suffering, in pieces. Delicious. #Monsterdon

"welp, time to cut the layrnx!" #monsterdon

Congratulations, you are very smart
#monsterdon

Merry Christmas, Sweetheart.

#Monsterdon

Ok. That hand thing was good.
#Monsterdon

He's full of balloon animals!

#monsterdon #talesfromthecrypt

Mmm, chitlins #monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972 girl no

Ladies and gentlemen, this movie is rated PG.

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

Just close the box and walk away Enid. You tried.

#Monsterdon

@pngwen 🎉

#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCryptmas

Those embalmers moved fast
#monsterdon

Wishes a person back to life.

He comes back to life.

Starts stabbing him with a random sword.

Wow, such true love. *Sniffs*

#Monsterdon

WELP THAT'S GRIM * 4

#monsterdon

Well I didn't expect this to end with a samurai sword cutting up sausages.
#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972

mfer could go be a punk rock singer now

#monsterdon

Should have wished for the cheeseburger.
#Monsterdon
