"Let's go gettem."

The soundtrack: KOJACK! #Monsterdon

"What's that clanging noise?"
Manta: "It's a damn nuisance. it's my testicles."

#monsterdon #tentacles

PEACE OUT, WHALES #monsterdon

and the whale scientist, played by budget woody harrelson #monsterdon

Will: I know people think we’re crazy

Whales: Speak for yourself

#Monsterdon #tentacles

Yay, the whales are leaving the scene. They said "Fuck you assholes, we're freeeeeeeeee".
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon it isn't weird putting your monster killer gear together shirtless, whats weird is not posting thirst traps while you do it

the 70s smdh

I really miss Mechagodzilla right now #monsterdon

Hopefully more harpsichord means another octopus attack is imminent

Hopefully not against the whales

#Monsterdon

All these sound effects are diegetic. Mantas really do make reverberating clanging noises when they swim. #monsterdon #tentacles

did not realise he was talking to the orca this whole time. i thought he was just yapping
#monsterdon #Tentacles

"good mornin', cleanin' my ~gun~ harpoon, as you do" #monsterdon

Is the octopus name Jason Voorhees? #Monsterdon

Is there actually two orcas in that yellow tube he's towing?

Must be tight.

#Monsterdon

The guy's calves.

The other guy with a speargun.

Freddie music.

The guy's calves.

The other guy with a speargun.

The boat goes sideways.

Orca fins in the water.

And yet we *see nothing actually happen.*

#Monsterdon

Me.I'd be calling in a napalm strike. #Monsterdon

This long weepy pep talk. The whales are going to die aren’t they? #Monsterdon #tentacles

Why the door slam sound effect when a fish eats another fish?

#monsterdon

If you told me AI wrote this I would believe you
#monsterdon

If this boat's a rockin' part II. Octopus boogaloo. #monsterdon #Tentacles

Is anyone else rooting for Boomhauer of the Sea to hook up with Badly Dubbed Blond? Or is that just me? #Monsterdon

Where's Gandalf?
#Monsterdon #Tentacles

@strangefour it's more than zero. (-_-) #monsterdon

I legit thought that was the same dude with wet and dry hair >_> #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Apparently the orcas need to hear the Tragic Backstory in order to get properly fired up.

rule number 1 when scuba diving to hunt a murderous octopus, split up #monsterdon

Why all the underwater farting noises? #monsterdon #tentacles

#monsterdon "octopi have a sense of foresight" the octopus read over the script and was like "i think this baby murder is a little on the nose, don't you franco?"

#monsterdon now THATS a wife guy

@Taweret yeah there’s no direction they’re just reading lines from the script. That was written by an octopus with limited understanding of human narrative #Monsterdon

@paco [cetacean needed] #monsterdon

Buffalo shot

look out

#monsterdon

@Louisa It feels like last week #Monsterdon

WAIT, THOSE ARE TWO DIFFERENT DUDES!? #Monsterdon

@Louisa all i remember is disco harpsichord and shelley winters' sombrero #Monsterdon

My timeline is so torn about the music lmao #monsterdon #Tentacles1977

What is with the LEG shots?

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

so who is lowest-budget christopher reeve here? with the gun collection? because i have completely lost track of literally any character other than Shelly Winter's hat.

#monsterdon #Tentacles

@Louisa

"...it's been 84 years"

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Tbh I'm kind of disappointed the octopus isn't voiced by Orson Welles.

He totally would've done it, if asked. Always needed the money. #Monsterdon

@Louisa Um, I'm pretty sure that is a different movie
#monsterdon

Motherfucker people don’t think the whales are crazy, okay? #Monsterdon

How many times has this guy kissed a blowhole?
#Monsterdon #Tentacles

The sound engineer decided to play with some of the sounds they’re working on for an upcoming sci-fi movie. #Monsterdon

I knew Tommy no-last-name would be a goner!!

#Monsterdon

With the “I speak to orcas” revelation, this movie may have gotten extremely, extremely dumb. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon oh thankfully he's talking to orcas lmfao i thought he was recording a podcast

The octopus just wants someone to compliment their harpsichord talent
#monsterdon

that's a grain silo they just floated, isn't it #monsterdon

@amyfou Just like the movie. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon all octopi have foresight?! what?! also is the orca caged in a metal tube??!

i still have no idea who any of the characters are or what they're doing or what they want

#monsterdon

Apparently the guy who did the music on this film did the music on TWO other jaws inspired monster movies:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Alligator_River

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_II:_The_Spawning

We definitely needs to be watching those!

#monsterdon

Wait Wait, people on the street used to call this guy a "killer"?

Why? What's that story?

#Monsterdon

@amyfou If it’s an octopus, shouldn’t that be eight-sight? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Definitely #Coffee sighted that time!

@apLundell "I need help with the TROJAN" #monsterdon

This is like a cool reverse submarine, so that the orca can survive *above* water #Monsterdon

POLO, by Ralph Lauren

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

We have like 15 minutes left in this film. SOMETHING needs to HAPPEN! #monsterdon

Aaaand he talked so much it's now night. Okay.

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

@jonny “Plot twist! No one will see that coming!” #Monsterdon

Mister Lobo would say this movie isn't bad, just misunderstood. Usually, I agree with him.

Not this time.

NOT THIS TIME.

#monsterdon #tentacles

Y'think he ad-libbed that speech? #Monsterdon

"...if you feel anything, talk to me, make some noises..."
"I'm sorry sir, this is a Wendy's"

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Night 2
I mean are they not in a rush at all?
#monsterdon

"I guess you know now why I brought you here."

I wish I did.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Or killer whales?

I could not tell you who his loved one was. This is 10x as many words as he said to any human in this movie #Monsterdon

It helps to think of this movie as being dubbed and filmed in Cypress

#monsterdon

Ok, people talk about the incredible boat cabin conversation in Jaws. We'll have a boat cabin conversation too, but let's just have the characters say whatever who cares

#Monsterdon

Jfc the LAST thing this movie needs is a montage sequence #Monsterdon

@Zerofactorial 😆
#Monsterdon

"They used to call me killer on the street."

Heh. Yeah, you're a real, uh. Real tough guy. Heh. #Monsterdon

oh this is the _weirdest_ Free Willy prequel #monsterdon

Octopus ate your whale-friends, buddy. #monsterdon #tentacles

I think I zoned out. Did Vicky die? Has the whale whisperer reacted to Vicky dying?

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

I was hoping for a lot more depth in that summer / winter naming bullshit scene.

#Monsterdon

@OldRustBucket I sit corrected.

#monsterdon #Tentacles

Blond dude: "I guess you know now why I brought you here—”

Orcas: "Tuna? We're thinking tuna. There's tuna involved, right?"

#Monsterdon

@Taweret it's not like the plot is making any effort either
#monsterdon

@strangefour because she can! #monsterdon

"..I guess you know now why I brought you here."
"I thought it was to make a movie."
"Yeah, we all thought that ... at first"

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

...Are they gonna sic the orcas on the octopus? #Monsterdon

Begging orca to fight an octopus?
This is some low budget asking Mothra for help.
#Monsterdon #Tentacles

killer whales are dolphins, well actually 🤓

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

"I guess you know now why I brought you here"

"to feed me to the octopus?"

"to feed you to the octopus."

#monsterdon #Tentacles

#Monsterdon #CoffeeWatch WE HAD COFFEE SIGN ... (I think)!

Are all the underwater weapons just recycled blasters from Star Wars? #monsterdon #tentacles

@davesdogmaggie He meant a sense of this... #monsterdon

@Ayyyydrew Oh that absolutely makes sense. Very important fact.

#monsterdon #tentacles

Now the orcas sing "Show me the way to go home" #monsterdon #Tentacles

Oh no Jaime! #Monsterdon #Tentacles

This man has monologuing to a giant floating metal tube. It's more dialogue than some of the characters that have been killed off of gotten

#Monsterdon #Tentacles1977

oops, harpsichord. sir, i hope you said your farewells to your orca partners. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon And now a long exchange about fish sounds. Apparently our orca-wrangler talks to the fishes. And ornery cephalopods.

@JoeWynne Maybe she ran out of costumes #monsterdon

How'd they get the orcas in the tube?

#monsterdon
#Tentacles

I think the flamenco harpsichord is a Mellowtron. #monsterdon #tentacles

Gosh, for the whales its,

Please kill this octopus, but if you decide to run away, I understand... Kapeesh?

#Monsterdon
