this movie has finally made me realize what if it was harps ichor’d #monsterdon

I do wonder if the soundtrack is available anywhere #monsterdon

The age of streaming has warped my brain enough that I’m parsing these half-second stills as buffering problems. #monsterdon

#monsterdon the wild giant octopus uses Bafflingly Upbeat Harpsichord Music

It's super effective!

@ricci It's something-worthy...

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon the gunshot at the beginning of the race broke the video for a few seconds lmao

"...as the octopus, what's my motivation?"
"It's not that kind of movie, kid."

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

The octopus *is* killing people, right? Not just cruising around tipping boats and playing its harpsichord?

#monsterdon #tentacles

oh wait everyone made it? i thought the octopus ate the whole rigatta.... NEVERMIND I THOUGHT THEY DID SOMETHING GOOD #monsterdon

#Monsterdon no one alive has even seen the monster at this point right?? like how do they even know what to kill?

sailboat regatta destroyed by helicopter, no one bothers to watch #monsterdon

And they're all swamping their sailboats, um, why?

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

🦖#MONSTERDON 🐙

🚨 #MONSTERDON LOOKOUT 👀

See if you can find Shelley Winters or John Huston after the 1:15 point in the film.

No one else can. 🤷‍♂️

#Tentacles1977 #Tentacles

@Taweret It's pretty tough sledding #monsterdon

The tension sure is building. Wow, does someone know how to work an editing deck (and a harpsichord).

#monsterdon

so confused. what is happening? #Monsterdon

This skillful juxtaposition of things not happening with the insinuation that things might be happening is oscar-worthy.

#Monsterdon

Oh please, let all these children be eaten.
#Monsterdon

Director: and please this time less weird butt footage

Cameraman, pointing the camera at the nearest butt: got it

#Monsterdon

Ma'am, I genuinely am sorry the director thought your moment of nose picking should be immortalized in film. -_- #Monsterdon

I hate this “music .” #Monsterdon

Shelley is the prototype helicopter mom. #Monsterdon

Ok, they are in the same boat. #Monsterdon #tentacles

#Monsterdon MR OCTOPUS THINKS YOUR BIG FINBOATS ARE OFFENDING HIS SENSE OF AESTHETICS.

I’m actually digging this boating music. #Monsterdon

"Jaimie, what's going on? Answer your mother."

"Mom, I'm trying to sail a fucking boat here! I don't have a spare hand to talk to you, too"

#monsterdon

@Taweret Such a great movie
#monsterdon

I wonder if the freeze frames were in the original movie or used to fill in gaps & damage when transferring to HD.

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

What is happening #monsterdon

I'm loving all these vintage cars in the parking lot

#Monsterdon

What is this chaos??? I sailed as a kid and never once saw this many kids capsized all at once in a regatta... #monsterdon

@floatybirb the boat race scene is a low point in this movie. And that is saying a lot. #Monsterdon

lol @ loser mom in the Octopus lottery

#monsterdon

Is that Octopus... speedboating? hahahaaaa

#Monsterdon

Freeze frame!

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

in the 1970’s they didn’t have a tight 5 they had a loose 20 #monsterdon

Okay, scuba diving really IS safer....

#Monsterdon

why the still images tho?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon honestly i bet this lady just had all these outfits ready to go, she has that vibe

okay, if the octopus attack scene had made any sense at all, the fallen boats would be creepy, but instead we got whatever that was. #monsterdon

@Taweret we could use some corn rigs around now, or even barley rigs 😢

#monsterdon

@Louisa They told us to stop those kids. They didn't specify how.

#monsterdon

@WhiskeySailor Heard this in the same voice I hear for Sergeant Colon. I appreciate you. #monsterdon #tentacles

RIDE, DISCO OCTOPUS! #monsterdon

there certainly are some interesting cinematographic notions in this film, like the random freeze-frame photo flashback things or whatever the hell they are #monsterdon

The music is making me root for the octopus. You get 'em! I believe in you! #Monsterdon

i'm sort of in awe, that was actually such an amazing use of sound and confusion and all the parts of it came together in a satisfying way, way out of the rest of this movies league #monsterdon

@CactuarJoe That's what you get for paying attention

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe The Octopus will be directing it’s own scenes today #Monsterdon

BONUS SEVENTIES MUSTACHE in the clapping crowd on the lawn!

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

I am so very confused by this comedy act #monsterdon

Here we go

#monsterdon

@forestine It's legit impossible to tell one way or the other ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #Monsterdon

remember how last weeks movie had interesting stuff going on?

#monsterdon

Wait so all the adults are just sitting there watching the guy tell jokes instead of their kids out racing? #monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie It's an octopus. Houston just flubbed his line. Either that or they made major script changes after they filmed that scene. #monsterdon #Tentacles

And the movie's having seizures #monsterdon

#Monsterdon they just got stock footage of a sailing event for that kiddo race right?

Did the coast guard open fire on the boat race? Is that what's happening now?

#Monsterdon

putting shelley winters in a sailor's cap now because the producer threatened to call the mafia on the costume department after the last hat #monsterdon

@diazona Chekov's walkie talkie #Monsterdon

We have entered the primitive Powerpoint presentation segment of the movie.
#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Brave choice for the director to put a weak stand-up routine over a slide show of doomed kids.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon oh thats fun, weird auntee has a sailor outfit

#Monsterdon Who is this guy? He is not funny. It's like an alien who's been watching Earth trying to do stand-up.

@vansice pretty sure it’s a spaghetti horror movie. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Is this supposed to be a comedy routine? Does the octopus eat clownfish?

Why do these kids all suck as sailors? Or is this the speed-octopus knocking them down?

#Monsterdon

I thought Tommy and Joey or whatever their names were, were supposed to be in the same boat. #Monsterdon #tentacles

What this movie needs now is a bathroom stall leading to a sub-basement laboratory

#Monsterdon

This is the worst production of Shakespeare in the Park I've ever seen!

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe i thought shelly winters was telling the sweepstakes anecdote through her walkie talkie #Monsterdon

Is this film trying to make a statement with the back and forth contrast between the laughing oblivious people and the dying people?

#Monsterdon

Can we get a single punch line? #Monsterdon

The US Coast Guard ran out of bull-horns apparently

#monsterdon

Lol did this just become a slide show for a second or am I losing my mind

I MUST KNOW the end of this Scottish joke

#Monsterdon

And make sure to see me Saturday night at the Comedy Shack! #Monsterdon

[accidentally shoots off own rotor]

#monsterdon #Tentacles

Oh like the chalkboard will help. 🙄

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

The sound in my head when the I see the octopus running on the surface:

"VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMM"

#monsterdon #tentacles

#monsterdon "Yacht Race (Love Theme from TENTACLES)"

They didn’t even write an end to the rambling Scotsman joke!?

At the same time the movie broke down into stills?

What’s happening?

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Boating INTENSIFIES

#Monsterdon

“But you fuck one sheep…”

How Scottish jokes always end.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon
listen we spent a lot of money on this helicopter tour, really talk it up

john williams will carry this movie, I'm told not to worry

This music makes me think Magnum and T.C. are gonna swoop in with their helicopter.

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

the still frames totally work imo #monsterdon

This montage- such festive destruction!

#Monsterdon

Are these freeze frames while the guy is telling a Scotsman joke supposed to create tension? #Monsterdon

The infamous Scots man joke from Tentacles.
Um movie did you run out of budget for photography or actors?
#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Oh my god this movie is so low budget they've reached the point of using still frames to pad it out

#Monsterdon

This joke about the Scotsman #monsterdon

They're racing to a Moody Blues tune #monsterdon

hate when I have to send out an emergency coast guard order to suspend the junior regatta #monsterdon

hate when I have to send out an emergency coast guard order to suspend the junior regatta #monsterdon

mayor of the town shows up wearing an anchor patterned blazer, tells them they can't cancel the yacht race #monsterdon

legitimately good scene out of nowhere #monsterdon

Oh that bright red beacon is bad news when you're trying to hide from a homicidal cephalopod

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon and now fun parade and kiddo boat race prep montage ... the tone of this movie is all over.

What's going on? What's wrong?

Well, you know All those mysterious deaths in the ocean? Well we just realized that MORE deaths might happen!!

#monsterdon
