Stan Winston? Really? Wow, now I'm more interested.

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

That polo neck and shirt combo screams "Never nude"

#Monsterdon

That’s a great way to travel (with a guitar in your lap).

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

Stan Winston! You know better! #Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon Artie Kane needs to get in a new line of work.

Also, is this music diagetic, or…

The movie's already half-way over, and we haven't made it out of this opening son.

STAN WINSTON ALERT
STAN WINSTON ALERT
THIS IS NOT A DRILL

#Monsterdon

🎵 Take me to someplace I dream of...without America International Pictures

#Monsterdon 🦇 #TheBatPeople

THE Bat People, accept no substitutes.
Starring dime store Anthony Perkins.
#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

driving with the windows down while she plays guitar? man she must suck or he hates listening 🥴

#monsterdon

How is she coaxing those noises from that guitar? #monsterdon

they really wanted anthony perkins for this but lol not for you

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

A GUITAR DOES NOT MAKE THOSE NOISES

#monsterdon

Great font for the opening of The Bat People, but awful singing and opening music. I think Bill Murray would perform the song better.
#Monsterdon

GOURD!

#Monsterdon

she's actually singing the lyrics in echolocation #monsterdon

“Stanley Winston” before Stan got informal. #Monsterdon

Why does her guitar sound like a piano? Is the juxtaposition intentional?

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

Wait Stan Winston worked on this? HUH. That's promising.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon We aren’t going to ever wonder where the orchestra is hiding. It’s the thing we never ask.

how long is this car ride, and he's had to listen to her absolutely mutilating an acoustic guitar the whole time? honestly, the bats are the right choice. #monsterdon

When will the car get to The Master’s house, so Torgo can help this couple? #monsterdon

pa taki, ma also taki, everyone tacky, it's the 70s

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Oh, she's playing this song in the car on her guitar. It's amazing she can make that guitar sound like a harp. She's got skills.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

#Monsterdon STAN WINSTON MAKEUP EFFECTS

#monsterdon nice song, honey

@Ayyyydrew I thought the same thing. Maybe the missing Bond Film:

"Batfinger"

#Monsterdon

...what the FUCK is this song

who killed a music box for this

#monsterdon

have we reclaimed Bonnie's last name yet

#monsterdon

This opening theme song sounds like it ought to be launching an episode of the Love Boat.

#Monsterdon

Love this 007-esque theme song!!! 🦇👍#monsterdon

The real monster is this fucking song. #Monsterdon

"...The Baf People?"
"Yeah, no one checked the kerning on that font."

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Oh right Temu James Bond Title Song time. CAN SHE HIT THE HIGH NOTES? Only the bats can tell.

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

Sure, an opening song with goofy lyrics, we can do that.

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon

The singer is making up the opening as they go along.

Thunderbats are GO!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 🦇 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 😱

Weird credits font + terrible vocals on theme song == A++

This music is groovy. #monsterdon

running a little late but i managed to get the movie started and put my #monsterdon shirt back on

...backwards

Oh no Karen Carpenter style theme song, let me hear the bats shrieking some more instead

#Monsterdon

Get used to this theme folks, we'll be hearing it a lot, I suspect.

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

Ok, I can do without the theme song for a start.

#Monsterdon

what's this intro music wait is this a Bond movie?

#monsterdon

Did someone just whisper/mumble "no no, me kitten flithy" over shots of bats squeaking?
#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon "ballad from The Bat People"

Oh, my. What's this intro song? Is this a James Bond film? Are the bats going to shoot little pistols?

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

Oh, it's been a while since we had a score with lyrics right?

#Monsterdon

"Taaaaaake me awaaaaaaay~"

So that Iiiiii Don't have to waaaaatch THE BAT PEOPLE (1974)... #Monsterdon

Ow. The title song is hurting my brain. "... teach me to sing ..."

#Monsterdon #BatPeople

shoutout to the subtitles for making sure I don't miss one word of this dumb song

#monsterdon

Johnny, Batty Johnny...

#monsterdon

He had a bad dream, and she didn't even bat an eye!

#monsterdon

Stop shouting at the pillows, Johnny. #Monsterdon

The Baf People #monsterdon

I love a movie that starts with nightmare fuel. #Monsterdon

@amyfou I worried, too. That was a bit weird.

#Monsterdon #TheBatPeople1974

0/10 not scary, bats are just too cute

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon I'd say we're in media res, but I'm not sure this movie is that sophisticated.

We already have both bats AND people so we're doing well so far!

#monsterdon #TheBatPeople

#Monsterdon "did you have the bat dream again babe?"

Shooting at night using only natural light was a choice. #monsterdon

Launching The Bat People for #monsterdon now!

Omg I already hate this #Monsterdon

"I'll never eat tacos at 5am again!" #Monsterdon

Bats "right of the bat" is a good sign.
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Johnny, angry Johnny…

Bats making seagull noises and being held for the photographer as they struggle, as is natural

#Monsterdon

Now, I have to drill some things so post without me!

All these squealing bats will drown out the drill, sheesh. 😂

#Monsterdon

Starting to think this film is about bats

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon There are a bunch of species in there. Hawk, bat, seagull. It’s a generic smorgasbord.

And we start with the tiny little teeth of a bat in an very dark opening scene.

#Monsterdon

Bats don't sound like that...

#monsterdon #theBatPeople

How can you tell if someone is a bat?

They're made of wood?

#Monsterdon

Oh, wait, I thought this movie was going to be about baseball, I don’t care for this at all. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon that's a lot of bat closeups

bat people bat people!

oh yeah I killed a few vampires on stream in a game today 🥴
