I wouldn't handle a crystal that reacts that strongly with water.
C'mon Hugo, we all know yo like to take pics of diyng people.

"the barrier... of LOVE"
The question's not who, but when!
ok I was wondering what the fuck that light projector was all about #monsterdon
What did he rip and what the heck was up with the screaming/yowlibg cat?
#Monsterdon
Wait, why did the glowy orb show up? That didn't happen before. Or was that only visible through the camera?
Checkhov's glowy orb?
"may God judge those who are responsible for this outrage!"
So he invents movies but none of that matters
#monsterdon this movie is either catnip or torture for ppl with auditory processing issues (The Asphyx) (1972)
That corpse photo was something else
Still, VERY Victorian #Monsterdon
Good news-less than an hour left
Bad news-just barely
#monsterdon
#monsterdon Yup, private purposes. He's gonna use up entire blister-packs of kleenex, and perhaps lay waste to the entire nation of Columbia for their... COFFEE!!!
Oh, I just caught up with the public execution announcement bit.
The delta between versions of this flick are quite pronounced.
please tell me cats get a lil cat death Muppet with cat ears? please
unwravelling faster than a half knitted jumper left near a kitten who just drank coffee.
#monsterdon
His "own private purposes" that he won't tell you about?
Yeeeeah. We know he's wanking.
@hollie Wanting things is sin
I had βsomeone gets punchedβ by a stationary tree branch on my bingo card #Monsterdon
hypothesis: this movie would be improved by an aphex twin soundtrack #monsterdon
Okay, who put the cats in the dead guy's head bag?
WHAT ARE THESE PHOTOS #monsterdon #theasphyx
Death Cat Muppet?
Come now, Hugo.
#Monsterdon
Here's an idea: stop saying things to people
and then we wouldn't have to watch anymore
it's not the same if a piano player isn't going ham on some Scott Joplin
I thought the asphyx was a dark smudge, not a light blue sprite #monsterdon
@paco Oh wow the #miru copy is much cleaner. But I guess there are like three different prints of this thing floating around.
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
iirc they had "drop tables" of the ideal "drop" for a hanged person to fall (based on their weight) such that the noose would break their neck but not decapitate them.
Hugo wants to keep his snuff films to himself that's understandable #Monsterdon
#monsterdon word is the slo-mo guys have recorded the soul leaving the body
ok that's it, the guy who is filming a bunch of deaths and when you ask him why he just trails off and says its for his own private purposes is not invited to the public executions anymore. he isn't enjoying it for the right reasons. #monsterdon
my god more chit chat. these are not men of action, alas #monsterdon
Jeffrey Epstein's long dead relatives are practicing the dark arts again.
"Moving images I wish to keep for my own private purposes" is the name of my next NSFW Peertube instance
Fuck yeah, it's time for the hanging and the promised death muppet (yes, I looked ahead at the feed)
oh so he just invented moving images too? wtf #monsterdon
What was the purpose with the projection during the execution? What did I miss?
oh he _collects_ snuff films
wait, they share wonderful secrets? oh dear that's not good
"Cut him down" they shout, and so naturally somebody goes and yanks on his feets to finish him off. That hangman and everybody involved should be fired.
"The moving pictures I wish to keep for my... own purposes."
(masturbatory noises follow)
#monsterdon Thou shalt not kWEIRD AL
So wait I missed something. The camera was also now somehow a projector so everyone can see in real time? #monsterdon #theAsphex
"that is all"
if only it was. this movie is so boring, is something going to happen in this movie, or like...?
wtf was that victorian holobeam projector thing???
#monsterdon
so the camera makes the smudge appear to the naked eye, while filming - huh? #monsterdon
I wonder what the balance is of horror movies where the supernatural stuff 1) doesn't show up on camera or 2) only shows up on camera.
@moira just like yankin the dude out from under the car
#monsterdon There's an entire scene from Blazing Saddles that is really applicable right now. βThe horse too? That's rough!β ;)
Big globe, nice house #monsterdon #theasphyx
Yes, pulling on a hanged man's legs will make everything better.
When they hang me Iβm gonna kick and spit and bite and curse.
This dialogue is boring
#monsterdon #theasphyx
Is that the priest pulling his legs?
#Monsterdon
What in the hell was the light show? #monsterdon
Vulcan eyebrows on this priest here. #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
Wait, how did they see that? I missed what was being done with the lighting.
Also, uh, botched execution π¬
"I can photograph the spirit of impending death because chemicals."
death Muppet!
ALL LIFE IS SCARED
@plaidtron3000 This saves him from having to execute people himself, in the name of research.
this guy is a grim wee fiend
oooh lets hang out a record deaths!

Rodvir's about to get hanged - I've played this a lot!
Wasn't expecting an anti-death penalty scene. Good for you, movie maker.
Are you guys sure this Smudge is a soul and not Death himself coming to visit?
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
Nice jacket, Sherlock, but do you really have to wear it indoors?
Clearly The Asphyx is Slimer's origin story.
#monsterdon My work isn't pointless! I'm going to kill you next! FEED ME MORE CAST! I NEED TO STROKE THE FETISH! (bring the coffee)
@hollie Maybe his soul didn't have time to dink around. I hear it's cold in England. #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx "hey you wanna hang out?"
#Monsterdon unexpectedly non-sinister music for the first mention of The Asphyx
The tragedy is that now we won't get to see the son and daughter exchange catty comments about the estate passing to the new wife #monsterdon
ass fix possessed my toaster once.
I didn't cry and no priests were sent for
#monsterdon
"A public execution?! What an opportunity!"
ah yep we are definitely all playing on the same bingo card
so photographing a dead body is kosher, but filming a hanging is somehow a step too far? le sigh.
@amyfou look we only care about PEOPLE dying
okay I feel bad for having typed that but I am still hitting send
#monsterdon Weβve got the title of the film. Titular! TIT.. ular. ;)
Wow, that spider had a lot of blood in it.
βStop what youβre doing, nowβ #Monsterdon
I'ma try this approach to my next Institutional Review Board feedback of my experiments.
