I want to see an alternate cut of this with all the "-phyx"es removed #monsterdon #theasphyx
On second thought maybe she's thankful to be rid of Giles. She's probably already dating
some of you are ahead of me, but I see where this is going anyway.
"We've made sure that nothing can go wrong."
#FamousLastWords (hers, apparently)
@jonny for scientists these guys are not really very into experimentation
Curious how you explain that to the coroner
#monsterdon
The wise guinea pig will put a stop to this nonsense #monsterdon
The daughter seems... unconvinced.
So despite having tested electrocution successfully they're switching to a guillotine? Yeah that'll end well. #monsterdon
they had no idea that being decapitated and immortal wouldn't have worked out, it could have just been fine, just stitch it back on #monsterdon
The Folgers challenge but for booster crystals #monsterdon
So, uhm... No one is ever going to... you know... investigate? Because I mean, that was actually murder. Like literal murder.
I wonder if you actually live to be 200 if they'll actually let you out after a 100 year sentence?
any mineral that blue feels either toxic or radioactive...
Why is he in a coffin instead of his bed? Oh - you were performing an experiment, seeing if he would suffocate (Asphyxiate! Ha, ha!) in the airtight coffin.
@hollie *groan*
OK, so what do those crystals do anyway? I missed that plot point
So, they put Hugo in a coffin to prove a point?
#monsterdon #theasphyx
The guinea pig is named "Hugo"?
By the way, this movie hasnβt passed the Bechdel test. Just FYI
βRight then. Back to science, shall we?β
Y'know, even in Victorian England I'm _pretty fucking sure_ cutting off your daughter's head with a home guillotine would've prompted _some_ sort of inquiry.
Did they chisel her name in the sarcophagus when she was born, or did they rush a guy in today to do it?
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
Her head is very neatly propped on her corpse. How nice.
You can't really blame the guinea pig for this, it was such a bananas idea from the start #monsterdon
@hollie SIR dingus #monsterdon
The monster of the movie is becoming more and more clear. #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
"I am not tired, merely impatient!"
You slept in an airtight coffin, motherfucker. This is not healthy behavior.
Well that's something EVERYONE could have predicted. #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
I'm sure you could've sewn her head back on and let her heal. She was immortal after all.
Wait, I like the guinea pig too #monsterdon
why did we use a guillotine again instead of the chair we had already used successfully?
The piggy knows. The piggy knows their crimes against the natural order must be stopped.
So, no one is concerned about the long term impact on the psyche of keeping the soul in a box indefinitely? #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972
aaaaoooooohhhhhuuuuuhhhhhhhyyeeeeeuuuuuuggghoooooooeeeee #monsterdon #theasphyx
This is a smart idea...for those two idiots.
Na even for them this is dumb.
#Monsterdon
YESSSS the guinea pig is back lakdjflkadjlfkjldkfjlakjdlkfajdlkfjla
Of course she is afraid of living with you, creepy Giles, You watched her father toast.
#monsterdon
#theasphyx
So, uhm... If the guillotine works... Even if she becomes immortal, she's going to be a headless body or a bodyless head...
Or both?
OMG! The guinea pig is going to chew through the water hose.
Specifically and precisely explain your trauma, right now. #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
The combination was correct horse battery staple #monsterdon
Hang on, if the asphyx needs to sense your fear to appear than what about all the people who die while unconscious?
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx turning down research grants? definitely mad scientist
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory would like its soundtrack back #Monsterdon
And he was from then on known as Immortan Hugo!
I'm not interested in the next part.
#Monsterdon
This is a waste of a good guillotine.
Before I tried to turn myself immortal, I'd do a few further tests. Like, do injuries heal, or are you just in pain forever? This is basic "forgot to ask for eternal youth" stuff.
Oh suuuure, we're dropping a guillotine on your neck but "nothing can go wrong"
@jonny sweet romantic guillotine music #monsterdon
"I'll do whatever makes you happy, father"
"Christina you must TRY to understand what compels me!!"
Dude! You refused to tell her what you're doing or answer any of her questions!!
I love a romantic guillotine scene.
Whoever designed death in this movie really should have learned something about fail-safe vs fail-secure systems
Ah yes the soothing 'lay down on the guillotine' music #monsterdon #theasphyx
#Monsterdonπ§π‘π€΅ββοΈ π π» π§΄ π±
is her immortal self gonna have to tote her noggin around in a handbag then?
test it on giles first???? or don't change up the method to use a guillotine at the last second??? what the hell is going on with the music? #monsterdon
Theyβre gonna freaking guillotine her??? What the heck????
This family has a real fiancee fetish #Monsterdon
@Taweret Sure seems that way!
I have a bad feeling about this...
#monsterdon
Were dΓ©colletΓ© outfits like that period correct? #Monsterdon
I regret they killed the only character I liked #monsterdon
I love that they're just going all "oh goodie, let's kill each other and become immortal now!"
I mean... Couldn't they just, you know, wait until later to kill each other even? Like why does it have to be right now?
yeah she's 100% gonna die
"The asphyx must sense your fear!"
What about people who die in their sleep? or by surprise?
#Monsterdon But the guillotine plan was flawless! How could this have happened!?
seriously tho why they keep picking these awful ways to kick the bucket
#monsterdon
welp #monsterdon
#Monsterdonπ§π‘π€΅ββοΈ π π» π§΄ π±
ok this is truly a stupid idea
This should have been titled "What could possibly go wrong: The Movie" #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
so she's gonna die right
for the eternity? I doubt. Somewhere on time the place will be destroyed by someone build a trump tower or someshit like that, and that asphyx will be pissed.
#monsterdon #theasphyx
"You must allow me to immortalize you"
"But I'm scared--"
"Unless you overcome your fears there will be no marriage."
"I'll not allow you to force her into anything!"
I mean the scar was really superfluous, we knew who the mad scientist was all along.
βBeloved Annaβ So now she is remembered #Monsterdon
Yes, but how long do they have to keep watering the asphyx crystals? #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972
hell yeah time to decapitate some aristocrats
#monsterdon
Guillotines, dungeons, strange crystals.. what doesn't this place contain?
He's had this in his collection since the Terror - it's his favourite souvenir!
They believe that the water source will last for eternity? Victorian infrastructure was apparently more sturdy than I assumed.
Christina isn't buying this whole "God's plan either way" bullshit.
Dumbasses.
Why the rush? Get married, live a nice life, then pretend-kill yourself at 50 and become immortal. #monsterdon
Why didn't they just turn on the trap beam before switching on the electricity?
No I don't understand, I am a feeble woman. Kicks in shin. Knees in face. Runs off.
#Monsterdon
Saw that coming #monsterdon
The real ass-fix is that immortality turns you into an asshole.
Considering all the screaming that goes on when a man's asphyx appears, I think that guy deserves to undead himself.
The Doom Pig strikes! #monsterdon
yay hetero bullshit
Giles is really concerned about that inheritance
#monsterdon the Cunninghams really appreciate a good Leeever on their gizmos don't they
These are some convoluted contraptions.
Chekhov's burnt lock combination.
Guillotines were a common living room fashion accessory in Victorian times.
oh that little scamp is getting revenge
Great, a *slow* guillotine #monsterdon
"I'm too attached to my soul"
#monsterdon #theAsphex
wait wait wait, is this guinea pig about to have the ultimate in revenge? is this why we didn't get his spin off movie, because his part in this one wasn't done yet? amazing.
