tuning in a bit late and i come to find that you jokers have voted for another movie where i have to listen to people in victorian english clothes have victorian english accents #monsterdon
#monsterdon Obviously we'll need to start murdering test subjects to get that smudge to repeat. Lots and lots of dead cast! Who's first? Will it be accidental, or intentional. Manslaughter? Mans⦠LAUGHTER!
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx hon, that dress is gorgeous but are you really *boating* in it?
I think this is a grade.... 0.1 rapids?
"I'd like to register a complaint. This dead parrot has a smudge."
"No it doesn't."
"It's right here!"
"That's just some jam."
"No it's not! It's a smudge!"
You know, amorous couple, most people actually take the boat out on the water
Seriously, nobody can march on a river. What a stupid idea.
@CactuarJoe@retro.pizza It's got the best acoustics on the estate!
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
and then they catch cold and die slowly, that's the asphyx #monsterdon
I CAN HEAR YOUR SOUNDSTAGE ECHOING #monsterdon
My dear, do you enjoy our swamp chair?
"Social Reforms? HAW HAW!"
The copy on Tubi is rather yellow. I think the movie has liver issues #monsterdon
That's you. Everything you are, everything you'll were, everything you will be.
An asphyx.
A smudgy green screaming latex puppet wielded by a bored English grip on a soundstage.
trying to figure out if that guy has trained an animal to sit still on his head, bad wig or wild hair cut.
#monsterdon
Does "your president" have a name?
GAH STOP TELEPORTING #Monsterdon
Noblesse obligΓ©.
@oli Yes. It's true. This man has no John Thomas #monsterdon
I feel like I'm being gaslit about the smudges we all saw on those slides.
#Monsterdon
Lovely shade of lipstick heβs wearing.
"What were those smudges? Thumbprints I suppose!"
Bitch don't make me debunk your shit, I'll do it. #Monsterdon
I'm just going to assume I hallucinated the car crash.
But I suspect according to his calculations, there's an excellent chance they can capture ghosts and hold them, indefinitely.
And this takes place before the EPA, so Walter Peck can't fuck up all the ghost-busting--
Sorry, wrong movie.
"The soul departs the body.... AT DEATH" actually I think mine left just watching this
this whole movie is just people talking in, and then getting out of, carriages.
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx *mumble mumble mumble* *harumph harumph harumph*
@CactuarJoe we totally do, it's true #monsterdon
throwing down a crisp $5 bill saying the smudges are the soul
I wonder how those dying people felt about the poshos taking photos of their death...
It's not the soul, it's the rizz escaping #monsterdon
Thereβs a reason the creator of Sherlock Holmes was also fascinated by the supernatural and taken in by at least one βmediumβ
Examining the equipment... professionally [waling sex saxophone]
@jivens Unclear whether the smudges are scarier though
*points to giant black marks with a long stick, in case people don't know what a smudge is*
I wonder if inside this statue is the secret button to the batcave
#monsterdon #theasphyx
1970s portrayal of 1800s-1900s hair always kills me #monsterdon #theasphyx
hair and makeup crew all over England had it easy in the 70s turning sideburns into mutton chops #monsterdon
@blue brought to you by New Bedford Whale Oil, only the finest whale oil for our lamps
#monsterdon
Mmmmm, good old-fashioned Spiritualism.
Has anyone found the movie with subtitles? #monsterdon #asphyx
Gracious, with all the beautiful color shots in this movie, it's already better than 75% of post 2000 productions. It's so vibrant it's practically Guillermo del Toro levels of color. π
These pictures are actually pretty creepy
#monsterdon we're all enjoying "Jane Austen's The Frighteners" tonight
I wonder what the monster is up to
#Monsterdonπ§π‘π€΅ββοΈ π π» 𧴠π±
these asphyxes are very, very obvious on these photos
He looks too young to have adult children.
I am very confused. I think this is some toffs going on About Science About Dead People. What's this to do with the cold open?
well that didn't take long for their relationship to start cracking
#monsterdon
oh no
ghost hunters: victorian edition #monsterdon
hey, itβs the guy who invented shadows! #monsterdon #theasphyx
#monsterdon The camera gets real close. Real real close. It wants to kiss her too. And him. The directors weakly disguised fetish! (he's a voyeur, of course)
Huh wait I think we might all be playing the same bingo card at https://bingobaker.com/#692cf2b1ce59d6bb
Oh, he's the fucker responsible for all the ectoplasm photos with the wet cheesecloth 9_9 #Monsterdon
My bingo board has a square for luxurious sideburns, but these don't measure up. Oh, they do the job, but they're pedestrian. Average. Workman-like.
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx
Aaaassssphyxiaaation! #SungToAnticipation #monsterdon
Hey, is that a bust of Julius Caesar? Maybe this movie oughta be about him instead.
ohhhh Asphyx is the name of the first true crime podcast #monsterdon
Corpse going for a high-five #monsterdon
"psychical research" hell yeah
βI assure you, my dear, there is nothing to be nervous about.β Uh, yeah. #Monsterdon
@Louisa mmmmmm
#monsterdon
"What exactly do you photograph?" "Pornography, why?"
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx i DOUBLE DOG DARE you to do unnatural science
Maybe she just has resting disappointment face?
~6 minutes in, and I have no idea what the Asphyx is.
#Monsterdon
Enough loveplay, make with the death and science and junk!
(chuckles Englishly)
#monsterdon #theasphyx So, out of curiosity, which accent is the Eton received pronunciation?
don't get her engine running then leave mate....
Hey buddy, I didn't watch this to hear your thoughts on life. Tell me about the mf asphix?!
Giles is played by Robert Powell. He was also in Asylum (1972) from Amicus Productions
Ambitious to assume there is any thunder to be stolen
@rebeld The one on Archive.org is only 1:15 so idk #monsterdon
You know what would taste good right now? Mercury.
She's going to have to get out of that dress to give him children and that project alone will take at least 4 months
I feel attacked. #WisdomToothPride
Kill them all #Monsterdon
@Mikal That does look like a lot of work. #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972
Seems like I have the extended cut, going from 35mm to 4mm quality. #monsterdon
Giggles: The Movie #monsterdon
Okay tho let's be honest, we all kind of want a big old library like that with a fireplace and lots of bookshelves and a big globe that rolls around on wheels
I'm gonna have to ask you two to tone down the good-natured ribbing. #Monsterdon
Kinda impressive this long shot with the car and the train driving next to each other. I wonder if they tried hard to do that.
@lorgonumputz How else do you think the British rock invasion happened?
The promiscuous couple who gets killed first, but in this case the promiscuity is kissing in front of a roaring fireplace #monsterdon
Reminder to self: Be careful not to order tuna dinner in asphyx instead of tuna dinner in aspic! #Monsterdon
Could I, for example, bottle her departing soul and perform unnatural experiments on it?
No?
(Dammit.)
They kiss and their noses rub together enough to start a fire. #Monsterdon
Why do all the men look like they are about to form a rock band in London in 1965?
I don't think I've heard "this is my adopted child" since The Royal Tenenbaums
