Yeah, turn it o9ff. Emo Johnny is unbearable.
#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

see? SEE? I said this was a twilight zone and now here he goes doing a discount Rod Serling monologue!

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Umm...you're standing in a lot of bat guano there, pal. #Monsterdon

man, are you even _on_ bat-level consciousness?

#monsterdon

This sweater is why he changed. #monsterdon

Johnny, you leave that lady shutterbug alone! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon oh no! He's no longer in a terricloth robe! We'll never find him now!

The best part is he was also playing the theremin as he was recording that.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

#monsterdon Wives are always holding men back from turning into bats and going to live in a cave.

#Monsterdon serious question, how much did this movie inspire the BTAS episode "On Leather Wings"?

@brooke Interestingly (or not) usually when I post "they didn't invent X until..." it's completely a joke, but this may be sort of true in the sense that a lot of people even in supposedly secure facilities probably really didn't think much about security until after the internet took off, like in the late 90's or 2000's (and we're still catching up today)

#Monsterdon

@socketwench not if you switch it off #Monsterdon

The 70s had the best Knitwear.

Change my mind.

#Monsterdon

So they hired Stan Winston but they only had $10 and half a leftover pizza to pay him with so that's how much Bat Person they got.

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

all these lines should be delivered in torgo voice

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

"Always remember I loved you." And to drink your Ovaltine. #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

The Bat People is still more action-packed that Rabid '77, at least to begin with (still watching) - depending on how action is defined, in any case (I'm speaking of the pace of the movie).

#monsterdon #theBatPeople
#rabid77

@amyfou He killed a laboratory? --dad #Monsterdon

ah, Cave Communiques

#monsterdon

Doctor Winston, if you don’t straighten up, I’ll have to call Doctor Salem. #Monsterdon

followed by a montage of car break-ins as johnny makes cathy a farewell mixtape

#monsterdon

Johnny isn't a vampire bat he is a fruit bat he just really craved that strawberry kool-aid #Monsterdon

Anyone else find it disturbing the sheriff is wearing gloves while inserting himself into her hotel room?

#Monsterdon

Feels like this movie has been ending for more than half of its runtime. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon oh that's too much lood.

So Doc Bat sucks off rats?

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

@trixter also thanks for reminding me, need to put some air in my bike tires later
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

Wow I want that stone house though maybe without the wood paneling inside

Okay this movie has gone from fun-bad to gross-bad

#Monsterdon

"look we can do FANCY FILM COMPOSITION with windows!"

#monsterdon

That cassette recorder has a leather case. That’s how we used to roll. #Monsterdon

oh great, a voiceover. just what this movie needed. #monsterdon

If the sheriff doesn't die...
#monsterdon

Wait. Is he a vampire? I thought he just made bat jazz hands and a got a headache. #Monsterdon

@overholt Part and parcel for the way the 70s treated women in general, sadly
#Monsterdon

Tourist just leave cassette recorders on the front seat of their unlocked car.

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

PULASMAH MMMMMMM

Was that plasma?

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

@trixter Honestly, we've only had 1 bat hand so far. Never seen a bat person or bat people. Just lots of frightened people laying on the ground going aaaaahhhh.
#monsterdon

I have a feeling this is Nurse/Victim

#monsterdon

@trixter I think only one Bat Person so far. #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

I'm tired of typing "McCloud" so whenever you see the sheriff just consider thinking it.

#Monsterdon

die! die! die! die! die! die! die! die!

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

(Alternatively: new pocari sweat flavors: A, B, AB, and O! )

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Doc looks like a serious Ted Striker from "Airplane!"
#monsterdon

@brooke Yeah they didn't invent opsec until 1994

#Monsterdon

Excuse me while I SEXUALLY ASSAULT YOU during my investigation.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople #MoreLikeBatPersonButWhatever

@trixter guy not even a full bat yet, we still working on the first bat person 🙄
#monsterdon

@Louisa *To the tune of "Papa was a Rolling Stone."*
🎵 Johnny was a full-time bat
Like some sort of man-sized winged rat
#monsterdon

God this poor woman. Runs from one predator right into the arms of another... #monsterdon

@JoeWynne I doubt this one will delver on that too #monsterdon

The bat union is going to be like 'this is a stereotype that the movie industry has put on us bat peoples, we don't all drink blood'
#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

I can’t say I care for the way this movie treats its female characters. #Monsterdon

Is that just perspective? That car is huge! #Monsterdon

uhhh

the stabilized blood for use is gonna be NASTY but you do you?

#monsterdon

BLAAARGH!!

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Forbidden go-gurt.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

Okay, chugging a blood bag like it's IV fluid is neat.

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

I keep getting distracted by more interesting things like lubricating my bike chain, do we have *plural* bat people yet or will the title forever be a lie?

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Yeah, he knew where they were hiding the jello shots. #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

@Taweret Because cowboy hats looked too casual #monsterdon

@yatsu we got fruit juice man, all you can want. jello cups, too. single-serving.

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Mmm, Koolaid #Monsterdon

That's not blood! That's Hawaiian Punch at best

#Monsterdon

Worst CapriSun ever.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Dr. Beck ditched his robe for a wino's trenchcoat. Now he's going to flash some bats!

#Monsterdon

just here for your juice boxes, ma'am, please don't make a fuss. #monsterdon

time to kill another random nurse?

#Monsterdon

Ok, I want to hate the cop, but he's not wrong that domestic abusers are more likely to do other kinds of violence...

Oh wait, there it is. FFS.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople #MoreLikeBatPersonButWhatever

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

OH NO bat people aggressively snuggle other people's faces I guess

I don't understand how handling a vial of the vaccine would do this

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon I think the police dispatcher may be addicted to Valium.

1970s, so yup, that IV bag is full of cherry jell-o, isn't it?

#monsterdon

@Canageek Yes! I think there are a few people who keep lists but this is the one I have handy: https://monsterdon-replay.gerlach.dev/

It's nice because you can replay the toot stream in real time

#Monsterdon

It was the 70s. hospitals were only allowed one small lamp per room.
#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

I wonder if bat-doc has a plan or if he will just be on living on an early GTA.
#monsterdon

Uh oh, he's going to vaccinate himself against anti-rabies. That's going to give him double rabies! #Monsterdon #MonsterMath

is that supposed to be blood????

#monsterdon

Dr Batty McBatFace!

#Monsterdon

Gah, the cop gets worse and worse. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Nice of the sheriff to offer Ms. Beck her own alcohol.

@Taweret At least we're not on the slopes anymore. #monsterdon #TheBatPeople

@kshernandez The wood panels make it go faster.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon terrible opsec at this hospital

Mister Doctor Man is like "what? no nothing's happened."

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

How did he get a lab coat?

@Terencio Well that's true. #monsterdon

@kb9ens I think you have to use sonar to find it

no guarantees though

#Monsterdon

Now he's sneaking back into the hospital?? I thought Johnny was a full time bat now

#Monsterdon

Just let me drink on the job while not taking notes....

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople #MoreLikeBatPersonButWhatever

Is there a list of movies #monsterdon has done? I want to know if we've already done The Swarm?

this movie has way too many scenes of people standing around hospitals

#monsterdon

has the use of excessive force been approved?

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

i gotta go get and fold the laundry. will i be back before this travesty wraps up? probably not??? #Monsterdon

Somehow, I'm not really in the mood for lighthearted fun anymore after that shit

#Monsterdon

I hate to admit how much I like Mr. Blond Smokey The Bandit's jacket. I blame having spent some formative years in Colorado.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople #MoreLikeBatPersonButWhatever

@kb9ens Something about bats?

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

we watch a lot of movies both good and bad and worse here, but i appreciate that most of them regardless of quality acknowledge that cops suck

#monsterdon

Y'know "The Bat People" could have been a movie about baseball

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

Well, all units have definitely converged.

Do you want Anthony Perkins in your film but can't afford him? Meet Stewart Moss.
