@paco wouldn't that be an improvement?

Maybe they were making extra use of the set to hedge their bets.

#Monsterdon

brb ice cream

#Monsterdon

Who taught you high pursuit driving, sheriff? #Monsterdon

nice of this chase scene to give me time to catch up on the timeline. #monsterdon

DR. Beck is driving like “A Bat Out of Hell” !
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon this is got us both just so bent. Why can’t he just fly away as a bat! LOL. Pleh.

dude just turn into a bat ffs

#Monsterdon

YAAAAAAAY HE'S DEAD THE MOVIE'S OVER! #Monsterdon

cop shocks cop struts it's pre-1974 so it runs good on regular gas

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Out West, by the time the ambulance got to you, you were likely already dead. Hearse design very practical.

#Monsterdon 🦇 #TheBatPeople

I see why they changed the batmobile in the later movies. #Monsterdon

he just needs to go fast enough to go BAT TO THE FUTURE

#monsterdon

@JoeyBoughtACola It totally does

Double speed and Yakety Sax

#Monsterdon

I love that this movie has a classic #monsterdon soundtrack. It doesn't make sense at all

Sergeant, all you had to do was drive in a straight line. #monsterdon

Is that a police HEARSE?? in a high speed chase? Oh now, the 70s bongos!

#Monsterdon

Quick, someone get Johnny a mannequin to chew on!

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Don't play chicken with the bat!

#monsterdon

@paco the addition of the high pitched transformation noise really ties it all together

#Monsterdon

Yeah, the sarge just kinda blows, huh. Like, he sucks. #Monsterdon

@ramsey the siren gets other cars to move out of your way, presumably

#monsterdon

COME ON, MAN-BAT.

STOP AND BITE THE COP.

#monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie Fear and Loathing As a Bat Person

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

I think that ambulance would win vs that cruiser...

...and I am correct

Here comes the wacky jazz again #monsterdon

The suspension on those 70s cars! How did we survive? #Monsterdon

Look, the music is weird but I still miss those kinds of sound tracks for chase sequences... not to mention all the great car-wrecking stunt work.

#monsterdon

LMAO at the sheriff!!
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

I'm feeling like this movie needs some Yakkity Sax.

Also is it just me, or is the soundtrack going out of it's way to sabotage whatever mood is happening on screen?

#monsterdon

@ramsey Still trying to figure out the no honeymoon honeymoon thing, go on ahead I'll catch up. #Monsterdon

Whoa the ambulance interior reverse shot was cool. Pointless, but cool.

Nice enough chase sequence, here. Not winning any awards, but nice.

#Monsterdon

wait it's just the one sheriff chasing? who was he even radioing lmao

#monsterdon

"American movies: always the car chase scene." Bruno Ponce Jones

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

yes, yes, we get it. This is what it sounds like when a police car chases an ambulance. This movie is an assault on the ears!
#monsterdon

Why didn't that car explode? Is this the 70's or what?? #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

You can also tell because he just turned at the Ponderosa and drove past the Travelodge. #Monsterdon

I'm not sure trying to evade IN AN AMBULANCE is going to go well.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon It's so weird that ambulances used to be hearses.

Seems pessimistic.

Bat *People* and now we are halfway through, and only one bat *person* #Monsterdon

@bunnyhero oh look, that diner has meatloaf!

Hey, I got an idea for a band and a song...

#monsterdon

More movie car chases could use gorgeous mountain backgrounds like this #monsterdon

"I talked to your mother."

NOW it's a horror flick!

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon when the idea of having children gives you a seizure

A scenic chase scene.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

@msh @paco I thought it was Charlie's Angels

#Monsterdon

Where are they anyway, northern NM?

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

I've stayed at a TravelLodge once or twice in my life. #monsterdon

Having a bat-seizure while driving is likely not a Good Idea.

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

You guys, it's been 50 minutes and I have yet to see any baseball, I think I misunderstood what kind of bat boy this movie was about

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon i don't think he's turning into a bat at all, i think he just has rabies and is murdering people when he gets delusional

The police dispatcher gave me Ghostbusters Annie Pots vibes.

#monsterdon

Bat people bat bat people
There is a plaaaaaaace
That only
The bat people go
Bat people go Bat people 🎶 #Monsterdon

#monsterdon "All units ... CONVERGE!"

Thanks Sarge, I was going to try driving away from known location of the stolen car. I guess this is why you're the sarge.

Gas. 39 cents a gallon.
#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

“Apprehend. Do not shoot.” When did police dispatchers stop doing that, need to bring that one back #Monsterdon

See? There's the KFC the doctor works at.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

Discount Anthony Perkins gets daubed with babby oil to simulate sweat

#monsterdon

@kshernandez C'mon Flash! We're in hot pursuit!
#monsterdon #DukesOfHazzard

39 cent gas, 44 cent burgers, 3 dollar motel rooms

#monsterdon

@nev It's an ambulance just like the Ghostbusters car was, in fact, an ambulance.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

@nev in terms of practicality, i guess there's a good amount of space to work in/enough space for a person on a stretcher?

#monsterdon

Sergeant Hunter S Thompson. #Monsterdon

The movie has certain gone batshit crazy. #monsterdon

No, that's his name. Dr. Male Caucasian, professor of bats at Occidental College. #monsterdon

A Cop. A Bat. An RV Park.

#monsterdon

Is man-bat gonna suck on that screaming girl's collar bone like the fruit bat? American bats are weird!

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Woo! Gas in 39 cents per gallon!

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

I'm sure the fever story will get you off the hook. #Monsterdon

Fever!

@msh It is a good soundtrack! #Monsterdon

The music designer needs to turn it down a few notches!
#Monsterdon

We are now half way through... jfc
#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

McCloud'll get him! #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

This is Sgt. Ward, I'm here to harass a patient. #Monsterdon

This car chase is more thrilling that usual Monsterdon faire...

#Monsterdon

Your really don't need to be that descriptive. He turned the siren on so he should be real easy to find. #monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow Telling lies!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon he's not a psychiatrist. He's a mechanic. You're at a repair shop, sir. Your car is ready.

Wait, the sheriff uses a cigarette holder?? In 1974?

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

And so was created the Bat Mobile

#Monsterdon

Johnny is desperately trying to get out of his marriage.

#monsterdon

This radio has a Yelp reviews channel.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

Hey doc, what shampoo you use to keep your mustache so shiny and soft?
#monsterdon

what in the 1950s funeral hearse is that "ambulance"

edit: I have now been informed that is indeed what ambulances used to look like. I mean, makes sense. Just…there's no headroom!!

#Monsterdon

Bats.

Well known for acts of grand theft auto.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

Fever, man! #monsterdon

He stole the ghostbusters' car! #monsterdon

Who you gonna call? BAT PEOPLE! #Monsterdon

The best part of this #Monsterdon is the jazzy soundtrack TBH

Stealing a cop car in your hospital pajamas and bathrobe to prove you're not insane

#Monsterdon

Johnny Quest didn't handle his childhood well, did he?

Tho' to be fair, who could?

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Everyone in this movie is miscast. The bats are the only exceptions.
#monsterdon

He wants to stay in the hospital.
But he equally wants to jump out windows and run away.
Um maybe yall should send him to a mental hospital?
#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Sign: Hospital Quiet!

That siren sounds loud.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

HOSPITAL QUIET! is that a type of quiet, or...? #monsterdon

@kb9ens He's not even gone full bat yet.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

Johnny's in the johonny.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

johnny needs to learn how to explode out the window as a cloud of bats like a real dracula

#monsterdon

*me as my bones are audibly crunching due to spasms* nO ReAlLy I'M fiNE! #monsterdon
