Lights! Camera! Ass fix!
"Now take the straps and fasten them. Across my thighs and across my chest."
Not having enough people to work the light and the box is the most avoidable "oversight" ever
@Lazarou Tolkien Elf-style immortality is arguably the best kind.
He cannot die. And we'll never inherit. Shit... #monsterdon
ugh, posh people talking to each other....it drains me....
An asphyx could be a sort of psychopomp; a Slavic version was called an 'upir', which is considered a linguistic predecessor of 'vampir'βI can't help but wonder if there's a version of the upir legend in which the psychopomp, having escorted the old soul out, gets tempted to possess the corpseβ¦.
Well it establishes that the whole family is kinda weird.
like how do you even know what the death Muppet can and can't do? its a death muppet
Itβs coffin shaped!? #Monsterdon
If the experiment goes wrong you'll just be tried for murder. No biggie. #monsterdon
It could like, make investments in, I dunno, carrots, that pay of 100000% over hundreds off years and it could become the richest guinea pig in history and we could learn what the ramifications of that would be for guinea pig society
Sick Hugh Jackman is stealing the show
"There is nothing to fear" he said, being strapped into the Electric Chair
Here I will warm you between my breasts
@gblues lol "there can be only one!" #Monsterdon
Plus he got to attack his wealthy tormentor.
'If you like Hammer Horror, but complained about all that cleavage, try "The Asphyx".'
It's God's will if it works and it's God's will if it doesn't work
More accurate church logic
"So either way it's God's fault and not mine! C'mon, let's go murder me! :D" #Monsterdon
Oh so it sounds like a guinea pig being tortured even if it's the ass-fix of a human? #monsterdon
Did the sick man realize what was going on? Is that why he threw the acid in the doctorβs face?
Why was the dead guy given something caustic anyway?
Oh, how cure, she's making friends with the cute undead hamster. And, she got bit.
#monsterdon My name is Giles, and I have a problem with split ends. My hair? It's actually a tranquilized chinchilla.
Tuberculosis, not contagious at all
"We're doing weird things with guinea-pigs. And filming it!"
Suffering with the extended cut - he has only just now asked for a guinea pig.
MORE DILITHIUM CRYSTALS!!! #monsterdon
oh the science just went over my head must be my gender #monsterdon
You know itβs a British monster because it sounds like a teapot.
"That guinea pig can't die!"
Now THAT's Victorian science! #Monsterdon
#monsterdon We'll make a fortune on unkillable guinea pigs!
Muppet reaper is adorable :3 #Monsterdon
The British Upper class love killing animals, this is very on form for them....
...Is there a Death of Guinea Pigs? #Monsterdon
is this movie going to go in a ghostbusters direction!?!?!? #monsterdon
Ok now look dead.
HAHHAHAHA. Stop no not that funny.
#monsterdon
"Good grief!"
The spirit of Lucy's football! #Monsterdon
Yeah pulling on his legs will _definitely_ help him survive
Ah another insert! Technobabble!
It smells pretty repugnant! It's some kind of Undoubted Acid?!
It's called the Ghost Tingler, or sometimes referred to as the Asphyx.
πΆ The Asphyx is a lonely child
who's waiting by the park
The Asphyx is in charge of finding
treasure in the darkπΆ
I picked the right weekend to watch the new Frankenstein, this has elements of that.
"This isn't science!"
Hey, parapsychology is a totally legitimate science! Like cryptozoology! #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Fantastic.
I have seen some stupid deaths in movies... π€¦ββοΈπ
"Water is black as night" in a river? It's not the Thames, the water should not be that dark.
(also that looks more like a pond than a river)
LOL that was so realistic #monsterdon
Weirs are fucking dangerous though...
Keep filming!!!
If only they'd used the same camera for these shots...
getting tired of watching rich people enjoy life, when does someone fall in the river
Chekhovβs smudge
This reminds me of when it looked like scientists had discovered neutrinos moving faster than light, except that it's analogous to the imaginary version of events everyone thought was happening, i.e. "hey everyone we found something physically impossible", instead of the version that actually happened, which was "our experiment probably screwed up and we don't know why"
Mason, don't worry about your sister. (I'll take care of her)
March is not a good month for river shenanigans
*Now* I get the thumbprint on the slide comment.
"check your privilege" - these dudes, surprisingly
@georgieboy You people have souls? *confused kid meme voice*
The smudge is a hallucination put there by the AI post-processor.
If the Asphyx is supposed to kill these people I hope it shows up soon. #monsterdon
I don't see any photographs of the murderers, Peter Parker.
We photograph the dead!
Imagine how long it takes these people to get dressed every day? #monsterdon
@Taweret Make sure you have a driver who can tell the children of the night to leave you alone. Or at least provide orchestral accompaniment.
These opening credits are trying to put us to sleep so they can just play 90 minutes of blank film and wake us up at the end
@ricci In #Monsterdon it's all sparkling WTF
I love how everyone is "revving their engines" in the comment section.
It would seem this evening's show will be a banger.
#Monsterdon
Um, that's a rather modern police car in a rather modern city. Where's my Victorian Steampunk?
And it's time! Go! Go! Go!
Gotta get the production company logo up there before anything else.
@RachelThornSub Beat Takeshi was supposed to be inside the Take-Majin suit, but he wasn't cut out for monster suit acting so he only does the voice of the god with his face.
#Monsterdon #MonsterXStrikesBack
They shoulda captured his Assphix! (shakes head sorrowfully)
what's the third #monsterdon movie gonna be
@diazona If only we could fight Guilala with Matango.
#Monsterdon #MonsterXStrikesBack
#Monsterdon The military police in gas masks moved the reporters back a whole five meters or so. Now they'll be safe for sure!
I am suddenly awake at 5am because a thousand mocking laughs from across the sea somehow reached into my dreams and shook me.... something about a guinea pig? the dream fades. All is well... π΄
@ohiofi @aburka @diazona wow, Cate Blanchett! wonder why I never heard of it... will check it out #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Staff Officer KIMURA is played by Susumu KUROBE, who played Shin HAYATA, the handsome guy who transforms into Ultraman in the original Ultraman series.
@ohiofi @aburka @diazona thank you! was sure there must be others but couldn't think of any #monsterdon
this political clownin has a bit of a Dr Strangelove feel to it, huh?
#Monsterdon Both fake-Abe and fake Koizumi are played by comedians from the satirical sketch troupe, The Newspaper.
I'm still thinking about a plot point in tonight's movie, "release the guillotine blade BUT THEN stop it just before it cuts her head off, BUT not too soon because she has to really be afraid for her life"
How long would a guillotine blade take to drop, 1 second?
One thing hasnβt changed since 1967: White people all look the same to Japanese, and one is a good as any other, so they just pull random foreigners off the street and put them in movies and TV dramas. #Monsterdon
kek China is to blame.
Big thanks to @Taweret for the week's choice of film. I'd somehow never seen *any* of it before, which made tonight's viewing (and commentary) particularly fun.
yeah those diplomats and politicians should go and bore the monster to death.
"Bad news from the immortality scientists - asphyxes are beginning to develop an immunity to Crystal Lightβ’" #monsterdon
@moira life comes at you fast on Monsterdon... #Monsterdon
... and we've (poorly) set up for the auto accident at the start of the film! The End. Go home now, there's not really much in the way of credits and absolutely no post-credit teaser.
@davesdogmaggie yeah, it took some time but it picked up and was pretty good. #Monsterdon #TheAsphyx1972 Thanks y'all. π₯²
