The daytime on Mars has intense red light because the sun's rays filter through the red Martian atmosphere.
The nighttime has intense blue light because Garfon, the sun for the outer system, is lighting it up with its ultrablue rays, which can overcome the red of Mars's atmosphere.

When she was wrapping the tentacles around herself, I was waiitng for a "Pull the string! PULL THE STRING!" Ed Wood line.
set layering by viewmaster (TM)
COFFEE! almost overlooked it.
Tom get your feet off the bazillion dollar rocket furniture.
All this flirting is acted like it's Nick & Nora Charles, but the dialogue is so dumb
what about the framing device scenes on earth. lets go back to those
This is going to require an unusually large amount of... science.
@cd0 and shootier
The breakfast of champions!
#Monsterdon
HOLY SHIT A MAN SERVING COFFEE
WHAT JUST HAPPENED MY WORLD IS UPSIDE DOWN
“I consider… consider… consider… myself the luckiest… luckiest… luckiest… man on Mars… Mars… Mars…”
“Women don’t have any monopoly on fear.”
This is about as far into feminism as a 1950s movie is willing to go.
Turns out the real monster is the film's runtime.
Why is the view through the portal blue?
I need that box. #monsterdon
there's no reason to go outside, if that's what you're asking
#monsterdon Live from the Sunset Strip! CARNIVOROUS PLANTS. With a snap determination of that, they could just be after mold slime, but now, we'll just use Earth terms and be bigots about it.
#Monsterdon #theangryredplanet That's his emotional support pipe.
"Like the super intelligence that keeps a colony of ants working in perfect unity back on earth."
👀 @futurebird 🐜
Back the fuck off Colonel, back the fuck off
OMG they are still talking.
#Monsterdon
The science isn't terrible for the era. They certainly read enough of the '50s scifi mags to pilfer ideas for this one!
Meanwhile, in the background, the oscilloscope begs to be released from the wall.
"Please....I'm a serious piece of test equipment...."
Do you think the whole crew should leave the rocket at the same time to explore the martian jungle? #monsterdon
I love seeing the paunchy physique of the 1950s actors. It's refreshingly authentic.
#Monsterdon
They have PhDs in speculation.
@Zerofactorial It's an ass plant, that's all.
#Monsterdon "Neuromuscular skeletal creature."
…
Dude, what? Seriously what kind of pseudoscience word vomit are you spewing? Gordi LaForge wouldn't understand that hot nonsense.
I don't like what they're implying about this plant creature's motives.
It’s always the hubris of humans to consider everything else a “lower life form.”
Tom is kind of a dick.
Is he going to make a pass at the space rifle
"Every swash I ever had just became unbuckled" 🤦 🤦 🤦
It's just some piping and a wooden stock, Sam
The luma key blur effect is more upsetting than the angry red. I wonder how they did that… and why.
"It wasn't just a friendly embrace"
Sammy's gonna freeze his own dick off isn't he
#monsterdon
Sam likes that gun a bit too much
"Any swash I had just came unbuckled"
Idk, what was so funny about that, but that gave me a good laugh
#Monsterdon
I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken. He did have a space machete #Monsterdon
Starting to think they made this whole movie just for the deep fried xerox zine-o-vision
Was that plant as um Georgia Okeefe looking before they added the red filter?
#Monsterdon #TheAngryRedPlanet
Oh, I get it. There's the Venus Fly Trap and now we have the Mars Fly Trap.
No chlorophyll (that one finds on Earth) and neurological system says FUNGUS.
"Neuromuscular vegetal creature" is some damn fine nonsense
let's never go outside again
a neuro-muscular vegetable creature
"What do you say we go back to the ship?"
"Yeah, we have discovered exactly one thing on Mars. That's enough for one day."
#monsterdon What about the blue sky? Now it's bright orange! Ah well, colors are just accidents of matte backgrounds after all.
"...any swash I had just came unbuckled"
"You're cleaning out your own suit, Sam."
#Monsterdon 😠 😡 🪐 🚀 🐀 🦇 🕷️ 👾 😱
"We've had enough exploring and swashbuckling for one day"
The woman-eating plant sounded a lot like a Sleestak.
#Monsterdon
They squeaked the tentacle to death.
#monsterdon
thank god
“If I just point this gun-looking barrel at the plant, it will make a very loud beeping sound that will destroy the plant.”
@Taweret why do you hate cinemagic :(
This movie has some annoying noises, but that freeze ray that doesn't shoot any optical effects is the worst so far.
#Monsterdon #TheAngryRedPlanet
Come over to this side where it's really obscene looking! #Monsterdon
beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep
#monsterdon
I guess you owe Tom a blow job now, well that's what he thinks anyway
MONSTER PLANT-VINE-TENTACLE ATTACK
Tentacle uses menacing scoot!
It is very effective!
#monsterdon
A giant vagina with tentacles. There, I said it.
Please stop calling her Irish. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon #theangryredplanet And suddenly we're in a Japanese tentacle flick.
martian flytrap, I see what you did there
@Lazarou they did it on the Orville
This would have been a fun Orville episode actually, they find a planet where everything is red
FEED ME
The effect of adding a red filter and a little bit of solarizing on black and white footage is cheap and stupid and kinda genius. Amazing bit of work from one of the Three Stooges son in laws.
#Monsterdon #TheAngryRedPlanet
Sorry, but "Forbidden Planet" was less cheesy than this and it predates it by what, 5 years?
Edit: no, only 3
@moira This is probably chloropete
a nervous system. okay, so we showed up, murdered one of them first thing, and now we're snapping their photos like cursed paparazzi. the plants can eat them now.
I'm foreshadowing, of course. #Monsterdon
I love these drawings, and of course I hate the RED. It is an ANGRY RED.
no chlorophyll because chlorophyll only works on like two specific wavelengths and EVERYTHING HERE IS NONE OF THEM
Hey Iris, my kid drew this. Wanna hook up?
The original deep fried meme. #monsterdon
I wish we hadn't gone outside
#monsterdon I should watch this with the rest of the lights off, to preserve my might vision.
#Monsterdon "Ultra Sonic Freeze Gun?"
Also, it's five by five, you assholes. A four by four is a jeep.
This guy's way too lax with his gun #Monsterdon
ultrasonic freeze guns SUCK
I hope they meet Matango #monsterdon
MOAR CINEMAGIC!
okay I need the rest of the movie to not look like this
Lol. Yeah this is cinemawhateverthefudge. "Cinemagic". Solarizing black and white film plus red dye. #monsterdon
Anyone else feel like we should have put our faceplates on before coming out? #Monsterdon
"We're looking for alien life but we're going to ignore an eye witness account and make fun of the description... now lets go look for real alien life!"
:neocat_facepalm:
#Monsterdon #TheAngryRedPlanet
Ah and now we see the famed Cinemagic Distortion Field of Mars
@cd0 I think that's an evergreen bingo square... gotta keep things interesting, y'know
Are they stepping into a cartoon? very cool
#Monsterdon
dude why are you giving orders, nobody's followed them in the past....
okay I kinda hate this effect ngl
