"I'm not a psychiatrist, far from it"

... 'far from it'? What are you implying

#Monsterdon

Ketamine enters the picture....
#Monsterdon

@srol
Yes! Someone who knows how to create a sense of eeriness.

#Monsterdon 🦇 #TheBatPeople

So here's the unpleasant make-out scene. But who are these characters, I don't get it #monsterdon

ACAB #monsterdon

Still very much unsure if the sergeant is trying to solve these crimes or not. #monsterdon

He’s a lecherous cowboy sheriff with a cigarette holder. That’s a bold choice. #Monsterdon

@mmezabet @Taweret That makes too much sense for this movie

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon WOOD PANELING 1970s IN DA HOUSE

"Listen, I had a great time."

"I know, it's all over your pants."

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

And you just had that evidence, unbagged, in your POCKET?! #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

I'll just keep this critical piece of evidence in my dirty carhart pocket... Standard procedure. #monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon *answers every question as suspiciously as possible*

y'know for once i'm glad doc batboy _doesn't_ know it's shut the fuck up friday

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Who buttons their pajamas all the way to the top, anyway? #Monsterdon

What's with the suspicion? Can't a cop just drop in at 3am to shoot the shit about a recent murder anymore? #Monsterdon

wait did I hear someone say "bat camp"

#Monsterdon

@mmezabet @Taweret i'm half expecting it to be actually rabies and the doctor later on goes 'oh woops i gave you the wrong ~serum~ because i'm incompetent'

#monsterdon

@diazona Right? I almost didn't post the comment for a sec when the music took a pivot. 😆 #Monsterdon

At the Sephora! #monsterdon

What shift does this sergeant work?

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

Kathy, it's ok, Mister Doctor Husband wants to leave you for the cop.

#monsterdon

That room service dinner looked *pathetic*

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

like rabies is a disease bats can get but its not specific to bats and its not like Esssence of Bat: The Disease

#Monsterdon

This about sums it up. #monsterdon

Delivering lines AND smoking, that's some proper acting you're seeing there

#Monsterdon

I believe his name is Sgt. Ogle.

#Monsterdon

CHIEF!
MCCLOUD!
#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

oh yeah, male gaze all over that jc penny's nightgown

#monsterdon

@flowerpot Though it seems to have a hard time making up its mind about what kind of jazz to use

#Monsterdon

And we have smoking!

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

"I'd like to stare at your breasts... er, talk to your husband."

"McCloud!"

#Monsterdon

LAND SHARK AAAAAAAA

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Jazz! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Do you feel high?

I guess so.

(What someone says when they don't feel high.)

"There's been one or two things bothering me..."

"Like what?"

"Like my moustache. How can I keep it groomed better?"

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon what if we made out to the extended version of the Sanford and Son theme

Doop a doop a doop, just a calm sheriff swagger, it's only murder, no need to rush, dee do dee... #Monsterdon

Who y'gonna call? BAT BUSTERS dadadada da DAT dat!

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

This boy never used the "jesus-grandma" mind chant to avoid a early blastoff? Gee, what a baby-man
#monsterdon

The musical choices are kind of schizo. #Monsterdon

@Taweret

There is a vague conflation that I recommend ignoring for your own sanity.

#Monsterdon 🦇 #TheBatPeople

like does the movie think rabies is like a were-bat disease?

#Monsterdon

livin' in a Bat Dream...

#monsterdon

@paco It's the 70s. There was only one color palette, and everyone took turns sharing it.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

@bunnyhero Maybe it was the bass player #Monsterdon

My best hypothesis is that Johnny and Cathy are still stuck in the cave with the "mites" but he's just disassociating all these disjointed scenes #monsterdon

Stop with the bloody eyes already #Monsterdon

This music would be great, in a different movie

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon This was an excellent scream!

What is even happening

#Monsterdon

Deeply disappointing sexual experience followed immediately by being chased by a monster = this should be a Monsterdon bingo square

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

but was it a dream?

@paco

That and appearing in this movie.

#Monsterdon

Soundtrack

Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict

#Monsterdon

A knock on the door in the middle of the night, send the lady out, it could be dangerous after all....

#Monsterdon

Yes, she's had sex with him just now…you can tell by the extremely unsatisfied look.

#monsterdon

Aaugh!

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Late to the party. Sorry.

But there's an early scene that sets it all up...It's a slippery slope folks. And it's all downhill from here.

And then there's a bat bite, and no rabies protocol...

And the girlfriend knows. Something is wrong! And nobody listens...

So, yep. True to script. True to genre. True to trope.

Settling back with my snacks, and a nice drink...

Ah right, gotta wait for the guy to leave, the well-known fact that bats only go after women

#Monsterdon

Movie Fruit bats are dangerous!

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Dude, that should be *our* reaction.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

The screaming was the best part of the movie!

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

I feel like we need some Michael Moriarty from Q: The Winged Serpent scatting over this. #monsterdon

How did they know Murder Jazz was one of my favorite genres?

#Monsterdon

i think bat boy's motivation here is that he wants to drink blood like a vampire bat but how come the victims are still so juicy when found #monsterdon

nana nana nana nana nana nana nana nana

...never mind, false alarm

#Monsterdon

And now fusion jazz for a bat attack you're listening to KBAT more after this. #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

As bad dates go that one was right up there #Monsterdon

@Taweret it's a horned lizard thing! turns out he's not turning into a bat at all!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon WAS THAT A PREMATURE EJACULATION SCENE?

I respect a movie that plays jazz during a chase scene. #Monsterdon

Lady those trucks are FORTRESSES. STAY INSIDE.

jfc

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

wait, the bad jazz isn't diegetic anymore?

#monsterdon

What a gentleman... just gonna leave the lady to fight for her life? #monsterdon

I swear he was doing modern dance poses during the mannequin bash #Monsterdon

I feel like this guy is trying to do both Smokey and The Bandit at the same time.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

I guess bat doc doesnt approve the use of marijuana as a medicine
#monsterdon

"Whoopie" with hand gesture. She's my favorite character now.

#Monsterdon 🦇 #TheBatPeople

Time for jazzy MURDER.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

Are his eyes bleeding?

Now we have the scream-and-run sequence ...

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

The man-bat attack theme song!! #Monsterdon

like seriously why is he attacking women and mannequins. are the bat hands all in his head.

honestly a lot of these movies love to walk the line of 'ooh~ maybe it's all in their heads~' but they so rarely commit to it

#monsterdon

surprise guitar! #monsterdon

All the authority figures are required to be men with mustaches, those are the rules #monsterdon

I choose "Disappointing Jazz"

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

I super don't understand

oh that was the music. i thought someone meowed

#monsterdon

BURN!

Whoopee.

#Monsterdon

@wohali Oh no indeed! #monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Jazz improv monster attack cam!
#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon It happens to many young boys. You aren’t going to die. Just cringe through it bucko….

bloody tears

#monsterdon

Did he… finish? #Monsterdon

Weed and Groping! PREPARE TO DIE!

#monsterdon

Also loving the PJs buttoned right up to the top button, and that olive green, MAN! That is awesome!
#Monsterdon

Quick draw McGraw eh?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon welp, they're smoking weed in a 70s movie. They dead.

Is that the easiest way to get a jacket!? #Monsterdon

DUMP 👏 HIS 👏 ASS 👏

#Monsterdon

More gross '70s making out :/ #Monsterdon
