@gblues From now on, any time I see a generic Dudley Moore, I will call him “Doodley Moore!”

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Butler brings the Cognac! NOT THE COFFEE! That's WENCHES WORK! ;)

oh no

sterile heterosexual victorian makeouts

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

#Monsterdon🧐🏡🤵‍♂️ 💀 👻 🧴 😱

I feel that these men's hair is 1970s appropriate but the women's hair is period appropriate

We join this smooching already in progress.

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Didn't a car crash at the beginning? Did I imagine that?

#Monsterdon

No way there wouldn't be a character named Clive in this movie

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

The boys and girls have the same haircuts
#Monsterdon

So this is the first of the three spirits, right #monsterdon #theasphyx

Yay, it's #monsterdon time! This week it's the awkwardly spelled The Asphyx (1972). I could have sworn Vincent Price was in this but I may have been thinking of The Tingler.

i believe you were required to pose like that when kissing in those days.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

Clive and Giles.. well, we are in Victorian times..

#monsterdon Broadsheet newspaper, the iPhone of the age.

Why does the UK always seem cold as hell?

#monsterdon

I guess the screwy perspective is because the rest of the set is just a matte painting. Yep their shadows are flat. #monsterdon

@overholt Just once I'd like to see a movie that says "based on an unoriginal screenplay by so-and-so." Just be upfront about it.

#Monsterdon

I can tell by the police siren this is Brittish. #monsterdon

Lovely set!

#monsterdon

...See, the problem with watching movies filmed in Britain is that it's not a very big place and so you get the same houses in a lot of different productions. And when you get productions that use a lot of different houses, well...

Anyway, I should start noting how many times I see specific houses from Grenada's Sherlock Holmes. #Monsterdon

A good ol exposition conversation around the fire, among people who would definitely know all this information already

#Monsterdon

His all grey suit looks like a jumpsuit #monsterdon

There really wasn't anything but experiments in death and the afterlife or starting a candy factory for these guys.

#monsterdon #theasphyx

"The RAIN in SPAIN is MAINLY on the PLAIN!!!"

#monsterdon

“Absolutely nothing to be nervous about”

Sir. Sir!

#Monsterdon

This Downton Abby special seems odd.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

this guy looks like a generic Doodley Moore.
#monsterdon
#theasphyx

Clipity Clop is my favorite background noise.
#Monsterdon

She doesn't look nervous. She looks disappointed.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

@Taweret ani I want to do it wearing THAT HAT #Monsterdon

Downton Abbey is different than I remember

#Monsterdon

I also keep the interior of my fireplace well lit from above so I can see my fire better.

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

*banging two halves of a coconut together* #Monsterdon

@Louisa The irony is the Pythons were working with much lower budgets and somehow managed to pull off masterpieces.

#Monsterdon

clop clop clop

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

This is way too bright for a Victorian parlor

#Monsterdon 👻 #TheAsphyx1972

I don't know why he's burning a giant sheriff's badge but I'm into it

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

@Myoldpiano Oh good, I was afraid there were more Asphyxes out there #Monsterdon

TOO LONG CARRIAGE RIDE I'M ALREADY BORED HURRY UP ALREADY

#Monsterdon

So uh which one of these people is the still alive one that got pulled from under the car

#Monsterdon

Composed by Bill McGuffie (not his real name)

#Monsterdon

The Hills are alive with the sound of cloppity clop.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Is it just me or is this also Hill House? #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972

clop clop clop clop clop clop clop clop clop

clop clop clop clop clop

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

See, horse & carriage. Practically Jane Austenian

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon is this the adventures of Young Willy Wonka?

while typing: Wait did he just say "Enema, darling?"

I get wanting to go back to horses after that car crash
#monsterdon

From Cars to Carriages: A Tale of Two Roberts

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

oh yeah, he wanted to be a Python

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Remember to rate your Uber driver #monsterdon

I want to ride in a carriage through the woods

#monsterdon

#monsterdon #theasphyx Brian Comports himself poorly here.

i hate this man already

#monsterdon

It's nice to hear a nice orchestral opening in a movie.

#Monsterdon

And now we have Jonathan Harker on his way to visit Dr—oh wait wrong movie

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe

Although to be fair, it's best not to go into the Asphyx dry....

#monsterdon

Who's banging two coconuts together?

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

When your #Monsterdon is filmed with *TODD-AO 35 technology* you know it's gonna be GREAT :ameowbongo:

Come visit scenic Bumblecrumpetfuckshire

#Monsterdon

My money is on Asphyx is Cockney rhyming slang of which nobody can understand the logical progression #monsterdon

Ohh horse and carriage. Classy.
#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

JUST HEAR THOSE SLEIGHBELLS RING A LING DI...uh... FOLEY?! FOLEY! Goddammit

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

They don't do the wide clippety-clop shots like they used to

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Superquadraphonic Sound! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🧐🏡🤵‍♂️ 💀 👻 🧴 😱

THAT HORSIE IS PACING

The opening credits seem way too artistic, I'm a little scared that this might have shades of being a good movie

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

#monsterdon #Asphyx

Is this the My Fair Lady set?

FYI the cut on @miru should be the same as tubi’s, which is NOT the longer “uncut” version with scenes restored from a US print (you’ll notice a difference between prints if you’re watching this cut) (there’s also like 20 other bootleg cuts of this film floating around) #monsterdon

Ah, the precious and delicate love of one ceramic urn to another...

#monsterdon

The title font was so groovy, what the hell is up with this terrible font for the rest of the credits?

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

This is the first one that has started out with the opening credits of a Hallmark movie. I'm not sure what that means.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

This music seems far too happy for what I am expecting.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon I’m here for the Ass Fix jokes, not the movie itself

ngl i'm really digging the lovey-dovey intro credits music

#monsterdon

I know England loves their old real estate, but I can't help but think that a home abandoned for this long would've been bought and cleaned up eventually.

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Well, it's cleaner than my house, at least.

#monsterdon #theasphyx

Jesus I’m glad EMT / first responder practices have improved since 1972 #monsterdon #asphyx

its exactly 2 minutes into the movie and im already confused
#Monsterdon #theasphyx

@xerozohar

Seriously, this music is taking us in the wrong direction!

#Monsterdon 👻 #TheAsphyx1972

The Asphyx looks to be oh so much worse than I anticipated.

#Monsterdon

uhh, super quadraphonic sound. Fancy
#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Peter Newbrook implies Peter Oldbrook

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Filmed in TODD

It "Just Works"

#monsterdon

Yoohoo...

Here for some BOO...
From 1972.

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

#monsterdon

SUper-quadrophonic!!

Bond, Peter Bond

#theasphyx #monsterdon

What a transition, AM I RITE?
#Monsterdon

I made it to #monsterdon though I doubt I will be up much later. Running on a bit of a sleep deficit and feels like it is catching up with me.

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/37618-the-asphyx

I may finish this one, The Asphyx, on my own later. Looks bad in many of the right ways.

The haunting love them of... The Ass Fix.
#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

*frantically checks filename* did I pick the right file?! #monsterdon

Starting strong with that crash scene.

MY GOD.
THIS MAN'S STILL ALIVE!

A Tale of Two Roberts.

Why did I think Vincent Price was in this??

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx

Ah, home furnishings by Arachne #Monsterdon

WHAT is this music #monsterdon #theasphyx

#Monsterdon Do I have the wrong Asphyx? That scene didn’t look Victorian! 🤔

#Monsterdon #TheAsphyx i need to dust more

You gonna like...expand on that, movie? Describe it? Follow up? Even intone?

No.

(dammit.)

#monsterdon #theasphyx

Depending on who you ask, this movie inspired Ghostbusters.

I can't find anything to back that up though.

#monsterdon #TheAsphyx

once more with feeling old chum
#monsterdon

So I have to assume that what we are currently subjecting ourselves to is called Asphyx-iation
