WE HAVE OCTOPUS!!! #Monsterdon
Wearing wet see-through pants for this shot sure was a choice huh #Monsterdon
That little white pickup is the bomb.
I mean, VERY CONVENIENT there was enough boat sticking out of the water to find it like this. #monsterdon
Are there any underwater tunnels on the west coast? Is it because of all the giant octopi? Where would they even go?
Whew!! For a second there, I thought they were going to sail headlong into the ending for Cocoon.
@arrjay it just wants to find a good open wifi network
Thatβs Benito Gianardiβs boat.
@jonny @WhiskeySailor "plot" you say
Someone needs to compare this shot of the guy waving the spotlight to that meme of the dude holding a picture frame, I swear they are the same shot
Radio will be our downfall, Iβve been saying it for years #Monsterdon
I miss the big hat.
#Monsterdon #Tentacles
Bad miniatures scene, octopus attacks boat. My mom:
"I ATE YOUR SISTER. SHE WAS GOOD. I'M COMING BACK FOR YOU TOO"
dang the ads must be really bad on the other streams some of y'all are just getting to feet-emerging-from-water #monsterdon
We could've cut nearly everything from pegleg man's death right up to badly-dubbed speedboat death without losing anything important. #Monsterdon
The more I think about this film, the more I think you could just put the scenes in any order at all. Just scramble them. It won't make any difference at all. It won't make the dialog worse. It won't make it make less sense.
I don'd fee LIKE it
Be careful she says as he straddles the tailgate of the truck heβs taking to an open ocean regatta. A good 70s mom. #Monsterdon
Wait, those are Lasersβ¦I thought this was a yacht race #Monsterdon #tentacles
#Monsterdon βTo hell with Cory, letβs find my wife.β Guyβs gotta have priorities.
Ah, a simpler time when you could drive down the highway with ten year old kids in the bed of your pickup. #monsterdon
let's hope she's not fooling around with Corey. #Monsterdon
@WhiskeySailor is THAT what is going on in the plot #monsterdon ??????
honestly forgot about the boat race #monsterdon
WHAT IS THE FUCKING TUNNEL FOR
they're never gonna spot the iceberg with that little thing
Next season on The White Lotus ...
I can't believe this anti California-Hawaii Tunnel movie!!
#monsterdon
lol @ second Octopus boat attack
"Jesus Christ. You radioed it?"
I have no idea why he's so outraged. None of this makes sense.
Oh. Now Tentacles is on the high hat. It's a talented cephalopod. #monsterdon #Tentacles
@Taweret gotta love the Ed Wood βCut! Perfect! Print it!β school of filmmaking #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon uh oh. we've had how many deaths of folks and they are still doing this kiddo boat event??
I wonder what Henry Fonda was doing here. Did he need the money that badly? #Monsterdon
Huh, musical owl on the soundtrack. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon if there isn't a credit for hi-hat player at the end of this then a crime was committed.
Why are they building a tunnel in Oceanside? There is nothing off shore. It makes no sense
#monsterdon
@Bluedepth yeah, you can tell he's just phoning it in #Monsterdon
Jamie Dougherty's mother is extremely Italian, sure, why not
Gandalf like to have his ass eaten? Good for him.
#Monsterdon #Tentacles
Shelley Winters's wardrobe is winning this movie #monsterdon
STOP THE ENGINE
Scene of boat throttles cut
SCREECH OF BRAKES
Kids ridin' in the back of the pickup truck? Check!
It's amazing that anyone survived the 70s, really
#monsterdon help, help, I'm being attacked by forced perspective!
@RobynGoodfellow honestly, I get it
#monsterdon
#Monsterdon Henry flubbed his line, but nobody cared. Just go for it. It doesnβt matter.
they were paying Fonda by the day, they didn't have time for him to memorize lines, or to re-take them. #monsterdon
@blogdiva I've done the math, wouldn't that be 8-1 or 7? #iWasToldThereDbeNoMath #Monsterdon
@jmelesky swimming-with-shoes-on, one of the rare hits on a keyword that already exists
#monsterdon
love that he went straight to giant octopus out of all the possibilities
#monsterdon #Tentacles
#monsterdon okay the legs sticking up is pretty creepy
Geeze there's Fonda stumbling through another flubbed line. Do you think he had a "One take. Fuck you." clause in his contract? #monsterdon #Tentacles
Wait, the octopus took his shoes off? What a weird choice. #monsterdon
Aww, I was hoping the jerk in the snorkel mask would get octopssed first. Aaaand now the whole boatload got it. #Monsterdon #Tentacles
Oh hey a rare cool shot in this movie.
And wow it just tore that boar apart fast. RIP lady.
#Monsterdon #Tentacles
Huston and Fonda must had some serious debts. #Monsterdon
Don lost some weight, just like you wanted lady #Monsterdon #tentacles
#Monsterdon Well. That escalated quickly.
"They think your tunnel is related to those deaths" Hey... Let's keep my tunnel out of this. #monsterdon #Tentacles
@flowerpot It really tells you who the hero of the movie is
"NO. PRINT IT."
She was holding TWO life preservers and let go of both of them before the octopus even touched her! #monsterdon
@otheorange_tag Venting drive plasma, Captain #monsterdon
I too am thinking giant octopus.
#monsterdon zooming out, way above the sea, for an octopus attack is definitely a choice
A+ science. #Monsterdon
Octaman had better octopods than this. #monsterdon #tentacles
Is this really the right time for disco? #monsterdon
Isn't radio like the lowest of radiation frequencies #monsterdon
"high-pitched frequency will beyond the legal limit" I'm guessing amplitude, because frequency makes no sense... #monsterdon
"I'm thinking giant octopus" Wait.. WHAT? How?? #monsterdon #Tentacles
Does anyone actually think giant octopus?
#monsterdon
This has to be a lot more than one octopus can digest, so what could be its motivation? #monsterdon
You know your film is in dire, dire straits when Devil Fish had better octopus attack scenes than your movie. #Monsterdon
"...are you thinking about sharks?"
"No, we're not allowed to for legal reasons."
#Monsterdon And now a feet-first body. Monster is consistent inverter.
@jonny I thought it was 5 mil! which is 26 mil with inflation #monsterdon
Bikini girl for dessert!
I know we had other names than William in 1977. Did this film just not have the budget for additional names??
why are half the lines dubbed in and this woman has a strong italian accent when this was filmed in california #monsterdon
He's been studying synchronized swimming I take it #monsterdon
What is up with the inspirational music right before Tentacles attacks? (like for a Rocky movie)
#Monsterdon
"We don't have enough money for dubbing out all the accents. Keep some random italian accents because fuck you."
"they're such good friends, they're inseparable"
The Octopus will later pit them against each other in a gladiatorial battle in their throne room to prove Humanity's inherent moral weakness
Calling it
Omg! Handstands! #Monsterdon
@Zerofactorial dad says pull my finger! #Monsterdon
Did he have a radio in his pants? Or was the octopus just happy to see him?
#Monsterdon #Tentacles
Okay. The legs poking out of the water is a legit great shot. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. #monsterdon #Tentacles
BINGO!!
That boat attack music was A Choice.
"you'll... your... uh"
"KEEP ROLLING I'M NOT MADE OF FILM STOCK"
Apparently, something about being attacked by an octopus makes the victim stiff as a board. Does it inject its ink into the victim or something? #Monsterdon
#monsterdon
what do you mean John Williams wouldn't do it for boat rides and free bongos? i already sold them "Jaws but with Octopus"
FEET! #monsterdon
@brooke But not the octopus
The octo is just showing off
okay actual good shots? two? in a row? dang
