Greyhound product placement?

Would Mrs. Beck really get in a car with Ward if she knew how he was giving her the elevator eyes?
#Monsterdon

@srol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fK16h6fgIXI

#monsterdon

Just a cop doing cop shit

#Monsterdon

When he said "I'll do the very best I can, Kathy" did it sound like he was going to break into song to you?

except WTF THIS IS NOT COOL STOP MOVIE STOP

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon we keep cutting from day to night, and I have no idea how many days have gone by at this point.

Which is fine, since I don't care, and neither did the filmmakers.

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

OK if the sheriff gives you a lift back to your hotel room, and then swipes your key and unlocks your door for you, and then just walks in there and pours himself a drink...

...that's not a sheriff being sheriffy

Is he drinking her booze while on duty? #Monsterdon

"very good"

okay yeah then why do you have a whole bottle of whisky just sitting in your hotel room ready to go?

#monsterdon

WOW yeah Kathy call Mr Cop's damn supervisor. call, uh, _anyone_.

#monsterdon

@Andres4NY He's been stealing clothes so he can ditch the bloody ones. #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

FUCKING ACAB

#monsterdon

Sheriff making his move on the bored wife....

#Monsterdon

@moira Mebbie he said buster, but just lost focus after bus? #iMthinkingTooHardAgainArentI #Monsterdon

One drink and Johnny's in the bat hivemind again? GET THAT MAN A BOTTLE.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Ah yes a totally full whiskey bottle already open on the microwave. 100% believable. #monsterdon #TheBatPeople

lol "Likes Sports does he?"

"He likes pictures of sporting men, yes?"

#Monsterdon

I'm about 15 mins behind everyone else. Next time I need to be prepared w/ the snacks!

Also, why's he wearing pants with a bathrobe? Is that a thing that people did in the 1970s? Heck, is it a thing people do *now*? #TheBatPeople #monsterdon

Roxanne....
#monsterdon

Smoking at a murder scene? Really, Ward? #Monsterdon

Id the sheriff hitting on bat-man's wife? Yes, yes he is.

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

mom: see, she and the bat are married IRL #monsterdon #thebatpeople

"All units, I've arrived at the bus depot."

#Monsterdon

but hey, cop's back to harass Kathy.

#monsterdon

C'mon you can't walk the streets all night.

Did you just call me a street walker?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon “I’m free, freeeeeee, free as a-shiiiiiit” somehow American International takes the most most annoying character ever found in a production, the drunk hobo '70s edition, and turns it into the only character anyone watching this film can relate to even a little…

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

NOPE. No bats again.

$2 bus fare.

#monsterdon

He's one with the bats now, twisted and goofy. #Monsterdon

@moira Hand model #monsterdon

@steggy @wohali How DARE you, madame!

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon free as shit. Fair enough

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

We are dangerously close to some bats dare we get our hopes up?

The real twist is it was just tinnitus all along.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

@wohali also I'm getting a Buckaroo Bonzai vibe

#Monsterdon

Why make your characters anything more than flat stereotypes? There’s no law that says characters HAVE to develop! ITS A FREE COUNTRY!
#monsterdon

Stop whingeing about singular/plural you are bat people we are all BAT PEOPLE NOW #Monsterdon

I'm ~evasive~ running off the paths!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

That drunk guy had a nice jacket at least

@otheorange_tag It's a "shame" those cops don't often show up in our chosen movies

#Monsterdon

He took the homeless man's smelly coat... #monsterdon Guess it didn't smell that bad.

He's just adding an extra layer from every person he kills. #monsterdon

Tonight’s the night we all finally said “goddam these movies have a lot of homeless sages”. #Monsterdon

Only another 45 minutes in this. Good #monsterdon

It messes with my bat serum! #Monsterdon

Mitchell Caverns... California apparently

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

i think someone did steal parts of this soundtrack from the twilight zone tho. #monsterdon

That's a pretty sweet hideout for a guy who's supposedly a train-riding hobo.
#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Is Johnny, as a 'bat-sexual' drawn towards caves, is that where this is going?

#Monsterdon

So, none of the women that get bat-personed get a sympathetic personality, but the man does, huh?

#Monsterdon

@diazona The smarter cops would use a radio transmitter, just sayin #Monsterdon

@diazona I thought the same thing!

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

"Professional job"? I guess Johnny's getting more skilled at throat ripping outing

#Monsterdon

"Professional job"

what kind of professional, then?

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Told you.

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

"...everyone, sheriff?"

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

@tankgrrl Batty batty boo where are you? #monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Why does this guy look like a cartoon hobo from the 1930s?

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

What’s the chance of showing up in a barn with Red Skelton? #Monsterdon

Intoxicated vagrant is the wisest person on the planet in this #Monsterdon universe

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

he's gonna be super drunk after this one

This ambulance/cop car chase is what gave Springsteen the idea for his song "Backstreets" #monsterdon

thinkin' bout thos bats

#monsterdon

I wonder if all this "freedom" talk with this bum is going anywhere
#monsterdon

Few things ickier than soiled white terrycloth #monsterdon

Wait. Is it day or night? #Monsterdon

@paco @GeoffWozniak I am Paco's wife and I approve this message. #Monsterdon

that stock footage is showing its age, unless Johnny is hallucinating a bat's 1950s childhood #monsterdon

Roll that beautiful bat footage...from 1932 #monsterdon #thebatpeople1974

#Monsterdon
Rejected titles:
- I Was a Middle Aged Werebat
- Another Dry Honeymoon
- How I Met The Sheriff's Mustache

Hobo like, "Oh, sure, transformation, seen it all on the road." #Monsterdon

Sure that's the way you put out an APB, just say "APB" forcefully into the radio

#Monsterdon

Bats do drink alcohol so he should have been fine
#monsterdon

oops, here we go with the Bat Sound Effect...
#Monsterdon

I guess this is the start of a great friendship
if this was a comedy
#monsterdon

oop, BAT ATTACK.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Update

Apparently, were bats can hold their liquor.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

aw man sorry fictional hobo guy :(

#monsterdon

Death by Minimoog and fretless bass.

Worse ways to go.

#monsterdon

@GeoffWozniak My wife! My wife does not love a good drunk man soliloquy. #monsterdon

"do you hear.... stock footage?"

#monsterdon

alcohol-induced transformation sequence?

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

Johnny, you coulda sipped!

The ambulance didn't immediately explode into a firey inferno what kind of 1970s #Monsterdon is this

Hey drunk desert hobo what if we 👉 👈 😚

#Monsterdon

yeah, might as well drink something, Johnny, you've murdered two people and a store display mannequin, life can't get much worse. #monsterdon

@SordidAmok OMG! What did he do wrong except be homeless and talkative. #monsterdon

Anyone else fondly remembering the film "Gargoyles" (1972) right now?

Man....that movie had *stuff* in it.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

John.

Kill the hobo.

Move on.

END THE SCENE JOHNNY IT'LL BE WORTH THE 20 YEARS IN PRISON #Monsterdon

@athena_rising haha who am I to say no to that

#Monsterdon

I think his mustache is falling off. #Monsterdon

Johnny. You're gonna have a whole other definition of a bad day when some rancher finds you wandering on their property.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

@apLundell What if we took all the drunk hobos from all the terrible movies and put them together in one

#Monsterdon

Please, Johnny, kill this drunken barn hobo.

#monsterdon

He must have taken chase lessons from Roscoe P. Coltrane.

#Monsterdon

In a better film this barn hobo scene could have been a Bechdel test moment #Monsterdon #MonsterdonBingo
