usually no consequences for imprisoning the spirit of death #monsterdon

yeah but what if NOTHING will die on earth now?!?

#monsterdon

Containment vessel! Who ya gonna call? #Monsterdon

Well, he's definitely getting the elements of a ghostbusting kit together.

So what is the Asphyx doing exactly that requires him stopping it?

I still haven't seen the death muppet.

But he's poisoning a rat for the rat asphyx test, I guess.

#Monsterdon

"Don't cross the streams!"

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Literally a spirit camera. Also, these guys are monsters, but we knew that..

#monsterdon Now we need to start killing people randomly and figuring this out. There's also a #sttng episode for this too.

I'm very much done with the screams right now
#monsterdon #theAsphex

It's important to deliver a supervillain monologue while trying to trap a supernatural creature

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Poor guinea pig :blobastonished: #Monsterdon

lol, immortal guinea pig....

#Monsterdon

lmao putting the ass phyx in a container #monsterdon

if y'all mess up, the Assphix is gonna be really mad atcha tho....

#monsterdon

WTFFF poor rattochan
#monsterdon

We've done it! We've proven that animals have souls!!

#Monsterdon

Asphyx is posing for the centerfold of The Lancet

#theasphyx #monsterdon

Oh he literally meant a guinea pig.#monsterdon

We got the hanging! With an extra leg-pull and strange glowing presence ...

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

I don't like all this guinea pig shrieking #monsterdon

Noooooooooo. no no no non ononononoonononon
#Monsterdon

So they can see the soul/ghost. They have a way to get the soul/ghost to hold still. They just need to find a way to contain the soul/ghost longer...
How many times did Dan Aykroyd see this movie?
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Someone check DoesTheGuineaPigDie.com!!! #Monsterdon

Light booster? What. Oh its a warp engine. Gotcha. #monsterdon

Oooo, Ghostbusters!

#Monsterdon

oh great toffs torturing animals how fun #monsterdon

Oh, he means an ACTUAL Guinea pig.

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

"and you know what curiosity did to cats???!!??"

#monsterdon

It saw you? It looked at you?
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

"generating resistance" to death

...science

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

"she could never even begin to understand"

Because she's a girl, is that why? tsk tsk...

#Monsterdon

Good grief! Enhance! #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

@allanb Yes! WTF?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

Science is proceeding at a rapid and derpy pace in this movie.

@phooky psychopomps hate this one weird trick #monsterdon

@allanb Yes. To speed things up. Often, breaking the neck didn’t immediately kill the person being executed, so they had to help it along. It’s gruesome.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🧐🏡🤵‍♂️ 💀 👻 🧴 😱

so everybody in the hanging crowd saw the weird pulsating death orb, right? Like a sketch artist would have been good enough

I'm not sure I can handle hearing people say "The Asphyx!" over and over

#Monsterdon

Those of us with the extended cut are going through an endless sequence as they logic their way through the idea of trying to photograph the asphyx at a public hanging.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

@paco it's a "Gentleman's Conversation Cloak" #Monsterdon

Holy cow. Hey, movie.....#monsterdon

"Well Giles, what ideas have you?"

"Well, I do have this idea for a script for one of your motion pictures. It involves a whole lot of frogs..."

#ExtendedScene

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Priest's eyebrows have Thufir Hawat hawt-caterpillar action!

I won't resort to murder...

FORESHADOWING!

#monsterdon

People are shocked about a little light show when watching a gruesome execution #monsterdon

"I see little point in photographing--"

Wait, you couldn't wait to photograph dead people before.

This is like 'The Reluctant Mad Scientist' trope.

#Monsterdon

So, no one committing on the blue ball uh?
#monsterdon

Ghostbusters?
That was a very fuzzy Slimer as a death muppet. Must have been his first on screen role.
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

@moira Chekov's leg pull #monsterdon

yeah I bet he wants to keep them for his own private purposes

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

I'm going to pray for you even though you specifically asked me not to. Is he Mormon?

@Taweret oh now there's an idea

The Muppet Asphyx

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

I don't know about this costume. That's an outdoor cloak (isn't it?) and they're just having a conversation inside.

#monsterdon

"This is going right up on Youtube" #monsterdon

Oh, Checkhov's Unpreventable Hanging will require Checkhov's Camera.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx i'm rooting for the spirit of death, disembodied and under eternal torment

"You are found guilty of opening the gate for Ulfric Stormcloak! You are a traitor to the people of Solitude!"

#monsterdon

"We know you don't want this but we're doing it anyway," seems like a very realistic portrayal of the church

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

You've GOT to film the hanging think of the RATINGS #Monsterdon

@hollie@social.coop The Asphyx wanted to possess a dying body to relieve its own suffering. Unfortunately, possessing the son would be an increase in suffering.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

They called it The Asphyx!

They said it, they said the name of the movie!

(I know I'm late to this scene)

#monsterdon

"The asphyx possessed my only son" Not a line I expected to hear anytime soon. Or at all, really.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

i'm down to photograph the spirit of pure torment as it sucks the life out of my son to get off and reach a new spirit plane, but now you're making it all political #monsterdon

"photograph a hanging?"

you take pictures of dead bodies! this is literally your entire gig

#monsterdon

What a lovely coincidence! The first public execution, right when you needed more evidence for your Asphyx theory!

Huzzah!

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

@CactuarJoe VicToc #monsterdon

A hanging?! When? ...do you think anyone would mind if I filmed it, or

#Monsterdon

Men would rather imagine a smudge is actually a Greek spirit of suffering that used my son death to escape it suffering rather then go to therapy
#monsterdon

@klu9 Oh, hey, a legit reason for a wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopomp (grim reaper, etc)

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

@Taweret @jonny it's like a Ring prequel

#monsterdon

so they are just going to go with "dying by lightly bonking a tree is a completely normal way to die, the asphyx didn't kill him, but just sensed that he was about to die because anyone would have died of a bonk like that" #monsterdon

This movie but with either Bob and Doug MacKenzie or Beavis and Butthead. #monsterdon

plus one point for men apologizing to each other honestly, minus several million for literally everything else in this movie so far.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon The man is the monster. That man, the father. He’s the monster. He always was. Dickies and Ascots! MONSTROUS!

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx that smoking jacket is gorgeous

lol @ everytime they say ASS-phix.....excellent!

#Monsterdon

they pronounce it ASS-Phix...

#Monsterdon

He's got a bump on his head

#Monsterdon

My son is dead! Let’s science!

#Monsterdon

"It seeks out those knocked on their asses too" #monsterdon

I'm calling it, I'm hitting my "instant regret" square, it's me, I'm the one regretting.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

the way Clyve hit that branch it's pretty clear it was suicide #Monsterdon

*squints in Hellenic polytheist*

#monsterdon

#monsterdon We're skidding into snuff films kinda quickly. That's what we get when wenches don't bring the frikken coffee!

How did he do that close-up instant zoom with his camera?

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

"Are you a good smudge, or a bad smudge?"

#Monsterdon

Chekhov's Crypt.
#monsterdon

How did his camera zoom in suddenly? #monsterdon

So wait, are we saying Clive died immediately from bonking his head on that branch? What a softie

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

#Monsterdon🧐🏡🤵‍♂️ 💀 👻 🧴 😱

at least Giles has a lovely smoking jacket with *velvet* ✅ lapels

#bingo

I appreciate the ostensibly-dark room being light enough for us to see the actors clearly. These days, I'd have to turn my monitor's contrast to "absurdly bright" to have a chance to make anything out.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

LMAO the video of Clive's fatal plonk #monsterdon

#monsterdon hahaha OMFG and the followup footage of the incident, the only thing missing is 🎶 "The Entertainer"

"and what do the smudges look like to you, Rorschach?"

#monsterdon

Not your normal bangers and mash.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Well, this one's a floater.

"She must have been sucked over the weir."

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

Good heavens.

#monsterdon

though I suppose it could be worse, there are more embarrassing ways to die

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

“Oh my hobby is photographing people at the moment of death. But first, let’s make a family movie…”

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

ohhhh its like Workers Leaving the Lumiere Factory but with a soul and a body

#monsterdon

Victorians and their well-known brittle craniums

#Monsterdon 👻 #TheAsphyx1972
