No, you turn YOUR box towards the Asphyx!

#monsterdon

Is that a portrait of Emily Brontë hanging over their fireplace?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

A form of Asphyxted suicide.

"So it's like D&D liches and ghostbusters and there's death muppets, but in Victorian times...and there's an immortal guinea pig"

Me, trying to explain this in an elevator pitch

#Monsterdon

Anyone else having trouble with @miru 's stream? It has crashed a whole bunch of times for me tonight. Is it something on my end?

#Monsterdon

you owe me, now murder me!
#monsterdon

@nev @nazokiyoubinbou that makes more sense but i like to imagine it just sorta bumping against the door like "what the hell" #monsterdon

My face! My face!

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

The REAL Asphyxers

#Monsterdon

@moira that was my reaction! twice-wronged piggy!

#monsterdon

TIL Victorians did animal cruelty just for kicks #Monsterdon

I wish I had a Giles

#monsterdon
#Asphyx

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx guinea pig friend co-sleep!

Man wouldn't it suck if all they actually were capturing was plasmafied methane leaving the body? 🤔 😂
#monsterdon #theAsphex

Alas without captions tonight's #Monsterdon is no go for me.

@ranjit maybe that's the sequel?

#Monsterdon

Giles: “I guess I’m the ass-fixer, now”

#theasphyx #monsterdon

If the experiment fails and he just...dies, is the movie finally over?

#Monsterdon

this guy had this chair rigged up unusually fast,,, i think there are some other things he is hiding from his girlfriend :neocatGooglyWoozy:​
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon was that Asphyx juice that Hugo got on his face?

"I'm sure this won't do anything to my brain, just ask Bender!"

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

"I saw what you did to the guinnea pig. You sure you want me to strap you in an electric chair?" #monsterdon

#Monsterdon🧐🏡🤵‍♂️ 💀 👻 🧴 😱

I think those were safety belts

@davesdogmaggie [Bob's Burgers OMG.gif]

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

@moira it's gotta be that you actually need to be within a certain radius of your asphyx, so the guinea pig will die and then monkeys paw the doctor will be doomed to tote around this groovy godzilla puppet box for the rest of time #monsterdon

My God, what a selfless man. He wants to be buried in the earth so as to feed the...*gasp* #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

"Father are you asleep?"

"No, I'm asphyxiating...."

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

@blue It IS immortal, but she doesn't know that, so...

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

I still can’t believe they used a guinea pig as a guinea pig.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon seeing the Asphyx up close once was more than enough

Just once I'd like the spotlight to hit a reaper and have it start singing HELLO MAH DARLIN' HELLO MAH HONEY #Monsterdon

Definitely the most humane way to set a gunea pig free is to just open the door on a cold windy day and dump it onto the street. You know it's going to have a wonderful life now.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🧐🏡🤵‍♂️ 💀 👻 🧴 😱

no no no don't just put the immortal guinea pig outdoors! He's not adapted to this climate or ecosystem!

I missed the scene where they decided that the name of the soul ghost death muppet would be The Asphyx. Or did that scene just not happen?
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

half of a movie and we just have some bad fx of some light screaming demon.
This is a sloooooow one.
#monsterdon
#theasphyx

@yatsu

Asphyx, TAKE ME NOW!!!

#Monsterdon

I hope this movie doesn't end up spoiling any Fallen London content for me

#monsterdon

Contain your own ass-fix, dude

#monsterdon #theasphyx

Oh dear mad doctor, if you're being electrocuted, how are you going to control your hand to control the voltage?
#monsterdon #theAsphex

wait, are there still like 30 minutes left in this movie???

#monsterdon

Even with all I know about the ills of the VIctorian era, there's an itch scratched by this film…. Maybe because I wish social signalling were more set-down and explicit….

#Monsterdon #TheAsphysx

Bracing for more asphyx shrieking #monsterdon

"I must never be tempted to [unlock the combination lock]! So put the combination in my desk drawer!"

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

you die when the asphyx... leaves... but as long as you keep it trapped in one place... you don't die. i would be more concerned with following an asphyx and seeing where it goes, since it seems to just walk around #monsterdon

Bunnicula was a sequel to this movie. They just change the species to protect the innocent.
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Oh good! I was afraid she was going to scream and toss the poor thing. This is much better

#Monsterdon

Why have a combination lock put on the door, with a secret combination, that's written down, but you won't look, and then you'll burn it

Why not just brick over the door

#Monsterdon

I often press wild rodents to my bosom before returning them to Mother Nature

#monsterdon

He ought to record the combination to the safe in a safe place just in case #monsterdon

Our immortal piggy friend!

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

aw cute immortal rattie

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Since he's British, I assume it's spelled "immortalise".

@jonny Yet they can get through doors to get to a dying person.

I feel like... There's something I missed... Some super convoluted complexity that they probably spent like five minutes explaining but somehow I blinked and missed it anyway.

#Monsterdon

"What method of death have you chosen?"

"I need something quick and painless. Guillotine."

#monsterdon

I missed the part where the cameraman knew that shining a light next to the hanging would make the thing appear.

#Monsterdon

@Taweret my Very Important Work cannot continue whilst these wretched bandages obscure my magnificent visage! #Monsterdon

Did she just put a short-haired guinea pig outside when it's cold enough to see her breath?

#monsterdon

He wants to get his assfix sealed. How dare we judge.

#Monsterdon

@jonny

I wonder if the correct plural of "asphyx" is "asphinges"

#Monsterdon

“I have spent much time praying for guidance”

Suuuuuuure you have

#Monsterdon

So this is a Doctor Who episode without the Doctor and it turns out Man is the real monster all along.
Somehow this is more of an over the top Hammer horror style movie without being a Hammer film, and yet very silly.
This movie is the flip side of the coin with Horror Express. Hmm good double feature/Call of Cthulhu campaign idea.
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

"But what method?"

We now return to the methodology section of our research paper.

#monsterdon

He wants to never be tempted to die? That certainly won't blow up in his face (or what's left of it) #monsterdon

or, i guess, asphyxes can open doorknobs so you have to have a combination lock on the door because they can't pick locks #monsterdon

#monsterdon

If I survive forever, that will be God's will. Oh, so God employs Asphyx's for soul removal, and S(H)e has built in a get out of death free card for Victorian's with blue light cameras.

Huh, a door that has a lock with no key, you say

Allow me to introduce you to a wall

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

"Tomorrow I will show you"

In a good movie something dramatic would happen between that statement and the next morning.

This is not that movie.

#Monsterdon

"A lock nobody can open!" "—A combination lock."
*smash cut*
Hi, I'm the Lockpicking Lawyer, and—

#Monsterdon

What’s with the beautiful melodrama music? It is way anachronistic. #Monsterdon

"otherwise you will not have time to contain my ass--"

#anEntirelyDifferentKindOfMovie #monsterdon

We can tell he's gone mad. He made a verb out of "immortal".

#Monsterdon

so asphyxes don't necessarily need a special light or prison or anything, normal doors are fine #monsterdon

we're going to get a monster at some point right? #monsterdon

@amyfou It would at least be interesting.
#Monsterdon

Ok, so he doesn't want to die... but is he still going to age? Because that would suck.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Oops, time for me to take my ass fix.

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx #colonoscopyPrep

Chekov's guinea pig #monsterdon

just planning to seal off my asphyx with my future son-in-law #monsterdon

Mad Scientist is gonna need a crazy wicked scar for the climax of this movie. Whatever it is.

#Monsterdon

@oli

to bait his asphyx?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Dramatic focus blur to deeply moving bokeh!

A goblet of brandy for a dying man. A good way to go.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🧐🏡🤵‍♂️ 💀 👻 🧴 😱

I am really hoping someone gets punched and not only because it's on my bingo card

now he wants to fuck a door? what's going off in this guy's head

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Ok, I really think one rat who hasn’t died for a few days is not enough evidence for eternal life, let alone quality life for even a few decades

#Monsterdon

The guinea pig can no longer boogie now that it has no soul #monsterdon

lol, the immortal guinea pig

#Monsterdon

So, do I understand this correctly? The asphyx is a spirit that can go through building walls and etc as much as it needs to, but...

They can just trap it in a box?

Like... Is it soaked with holy water or...

#Monsterdon

Perhaps some elaborate beheading contraption?

#Monsterdon

the review I read said the movie started strong and then lost steam... #monsterdon

okay but can you put your bandages back on please tho

#monsterdon

this should have been like 300 years earlier and been a prequel to dracula #monsterdon

ffs, would you cover that hambuger back up, none of us need to see that

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

TRAPPED DEATH MUPPET!

(Your new hardcore metal band name)

#Monsterdon

@Taweret probably screaming a lot tbh

#monsterdon

wait so if theyre going to sever his asphyx, does that mean he's going to be immortal with this horrendous cough.....forever??

#monsterdon #theasphyx

Creature design is scarier than I thought it would be, now that I've got a look at it!

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

He has become Quarter Face. He must go fight Victorian Batman.

#monsterdon #theasphyx

"Seal off my ass"

#Monsterdon

I'm sorry, you want to WHAT a man's ass?

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx
