Are we there yet?
That looks completely safe
#monsterdon
Oh you guys are fucked, you just entered the boss chamber. WHY ARE NONE OF YOU WEARING ARMOR
Oh. Yes. Right. Carry on
Great stage set, when's Spinal Tap get here?
I remember this set from The Crystal Maze #Monsterdon
That monk must make the caves by single-handedly chewing on the scenery. #monsterdon
"please be careful not to light your hats on fire as you pass the torch, cheerio, pip pip"
Ut oh!

#TalesFromTheCrypt1972
For want of a nail the battle was lost...
For want of a bauble their lives are now very much more interesting.
Didnβt the giant ants kill her?
Running late after watching Xmas movies with the spouse. Skipped the first 3 minutes to catch up. Hope I didn't miss any important plot points!
#monsterdon
Such a fantastic opening vibe especially when you know torches only burn for about 30 minutes #monsterdon
No. That's the dead end behind you. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972
@nazokiyoubinbou@urusai.social It's a very Victorian attitude. The only thing better than being safe is a thrill of fear (while still being safe)!
#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972
We know someone's gonna lose their way and get lost, right? #Monsterdon #TalesfromtheCrypt πͺ¦π§
This movie is really starting out in Classic Doctor Who going down tunnels fashion
@nazokiyoubinbou Oh! Thanks, will edit - it's fine I'm not overly tired at all π
#monsterdon Which way? It's .. a.. tossup?!!? We went all this way for a tossup??!
Who's a tosser?
Sir TOSSER?!
is this a decameron or a Canterbury tales? it remains to be seen. #monsterdon
And now someone is already lost because of course they are...
I wonder if CK does tip sharing with the tour guides. It would be fair. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972
Chekovs brooch...
well, now that we've brooched the subject... #monsterdon
Chekhov's Brooch!
It'd be funny if "Tales from the Crypt" was just some Mister Rogers fella in a sweater, reading fairy tales from inside a crypt
@bstacey Oh I thought you were going to say cats! #monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972 I didn't expect quite so much history from this movie
Smart people go through the mysteriously opening door into a trap, er auditorium. #monsterdon
We can't be held responsible for your death or dismemberment
Checkov's tacky broach?
They really need to update the lighting from torches
#monsterdon
Wait... I have questions...
Why are there tours of a crypt? If it's so dangerous that people must stay close or else danger, why does no one keep an eye on the people? Why are there tours of a crypt???????@WhiteCatTamer Check the guide's costume. It's clearly replacement bus service, not the tube. π
#monsterdon
Good setting for a gender reveal party #monsterdon
These films are dangerous and I must warn you to stay with me and not lose your way
#Monsterdon root post. Watching in Toccata and Fugue.
see you think leather jacket guy wiull be the first to be encrypted but he actually needs to make it out alive to save the One Woman #monsterdon
I, too dress up to tour The Catacombs
#monsterdon
#TalesFromTheCrypt
My broach! I can't see without my broa
This crypt has 999 happy haunts from all over the world. But there's always room for 1000. Any volunteers? If you insist on lagging behind you won't NEED to volunteer" #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972
I bet these people have no intention of staying close together on this #monsterdon tour.
"The College of Winterhold has been excavating this ruin for days now, and we've uncovered so many interesting artifacts. Apprentices, do not pick up anything that looks like it has an enchantment on it, we would LIKE to finish this lesson without any of you being incineratedββ
Whoops wait wrong game
"Catacooms" is the pronunciation I shall use from here on in. #Monsterdon
We get a Crypt docent, I guess.
Are there any *bad* #movies that start with #ToccataInFuge? #Monsterdon
Andrea has already gone to bed so no idea how late I will make it, but at least I will try since I don't have to worry about work tomorrow. Plus the vibe is already speaking to me, old school spooky good times promises that organ music. #Monsterdon
lol, English history.....
Except for the Finns of course.
Yeah I don't understand british history even a little... #monsterdon
Kindly move to the Dead Center of the room. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972
Tours from the Crypt.
A horror movie starting with Toccatta in Fugue must be good, right?
Where's the Crypt Keeper?
I wasn't even aware of this (1972) Tales From The Crypt movie. I've seen some from the 80s.
Neato.
@paco I mean, he's playing tf out of that organ! #Monsterdon #TalesfromtheCrypt πͺ¦π§
This cemetery be fancy AF. They don't make 'em like this any more. #Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972
Ah, Bach.
Cat on the keyboard! Cat on the keyboard!!!
Art director, Tony Curtis? That Tony Curtis? #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon
#TalesFromTheCrypt1972
OK,
Starts off with a classic
Grade 5? piece of organ music that I had to perform (piano arrangement) long years ago.
It became my mothers least favorite thing to hear. I poured all my teenage angst into that Fugue!
THE CATACOMBS
#monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972
I, too, know how to use mood music.
-proceeds to play Toccata and Fugue over a sunny day-
#Monsterdon
I guess JS Bach was the Yngvie Malmsteen of the pipe organ in his day.
Canβt get better than Bach #Monsterdon
soemone better get haunted or encrypted or decrypted or what have you i aint got all day #monsterdon
Root #Monsterdon thread
I kid, because I'm the Owlbear. But I do seriously love this piece of music.
with this bach it's like a continuation of #BaroqueSun
#MonsterdonποΈππͺπͺππ§π±
but not *that* Tony Curtis
Glad someone is keeping "Shane" in line
Mad Magazine but make it schlockier. #Monsterdon
Baby Got Bach #monsterdon
Cue organ. We are in for a star studded feature. With much crypt. #monsterdon
Additional tales requires Crypt+.
Wait, is this a comic book movieβ½
#monsterdon
joan collins? wait, peter cushing??? guys, i don't know horror stuff, i am wholly unacquainted with tales from anywhere, so this is great news for me.
Time to watch a movie as old as me.
So glad that "Shane" was "trained"
#Monsterdon #TalesFromTheCrypt1972 ok honestly this cemetary looks so cute, like it'd be a great place for a goth picnic
Representing Lemmy, Mastodon's fediverse sibling! #monsterdon
Tocatta and Fugue. I wonder if this was the first film to really make this the iconic "creepy" piano organ song?
Star-studded by #Monsterdon standards
Welcome to Monsterdon All Stars! #monsterdon
Toccata and Fugue in D major-nothing sinister going on here. #monsterdon
Never seen this one, but I ADORE the TV series that bears the same name, and I do love a good anthology.
I've absolutely never seen this so I have no idea what to expect other than I'm hoping for a cryptkeeper
Peter is Cushing it!
I have maybe made a poor choice of movie food since utensils and typing don't play well together.
Peter Cushing so no matter how bad this will be there is at least one bright spot
#monsterdon
Joan Collins! Peter Cushing!
Settling in for a documentary about classical music, apparently
β¦
Nothing like using Bach as your intro music to keep the budget down!
Glad to hear that all these characters are fictitious,
WAY TO SPOIL KIDS BELEIF IN SANTA CLAUS, #monsterdon!
Oh, that great song that plays on Gyruss for the NES!!!
