Luis Aceves Castañeda as the mad scientist is awesome.

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy #DoubleFeature

Unmask him! #thecurseoftheaztecmummy #monsterdon

This would have been the perfect opportunity for the wrestling women to pop in and make a legitimate contribution to the story

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

Guys, this is not how you defend a thesis!

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

I was busy writing toots, but I thought this guy said "you mom called." #monsterdon

@moira Being a mad scientist sounds fun

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

honestly the mad scientist is the only one who ever looks like he's having a good time in these things

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

"I have no doubt that you are plenty of a man, I'll have to try you out."

This movie took a little kinky turn.
#monsterdon

@blogdiva He's comfortable with himself.

#monsterdon

OK I think I'm following some semblance of a plot here

I am mildly concerned, this feels wrong

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

damn (oh, damn) missed the first 30min, 'cause I had to make a late meal... uh, it's the same movie hahahahaha I haven't missed a thing!
#monsterdon
#TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@Bluedepth With his henchmen Martini & Rossi. #monsterdon

Frère Jacques, Frère Jacques...

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy #DoubleFeature

@JoeWynne No one could afford a pocketwatch on this shoot, got it.

#monsterdon

I missed the introduction of Angel - he looks like a character that would haunt my dreams but apparently he's a good guy?

#Monsterdon

this kid and the OG gamera kids should team up in some kind of League of Monster Kids

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

"I have a plan. You could reach him by telephone."

That's why HE is the boss. He has PLANS, like picking up the phone. #monsterdon

@crazypedia@officemarx.party you would have had to have skipped a Commander Cody jetpack short at the beginning, and two skits/commercial interruptions. Not unlike a Tubi watch

#Monsterdon

"you're slowly getting tired..."

"you feel that you must rest..."

"you are sleeping"

okay

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

#monsterdon I think a lot of people really kind of want this shot, and some commands like "sleep of the dead” which sounds so restorative and resting right about now. The audience is in the trance, except no point to do so, we're bored to tears.

@hollie "lie down right there"
"error not authorized"
"sudo lie down right there"
"Ok"
#monsterdon

"Laura, I'm your master"
Laura: The fuck you are.
#Monsterdon #Curse of the Aztec Mummy

flora's not the only one getting tired - OF THIS MOVIE ar ar ar ar ar ar ar

honestly tho' it's so much better than the previous holy shit

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

The microscope: very important for hypnosis

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

it's dramatically critical to wait until you hear the door click to end the scene. _critical._

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

oh wait is jerry lewis secretly the luchador? does that work?

wait i don't think it works nevermind

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

Ah, the classic hide behind the door trick... except, wait, the door doesn't open out....

#monsterdon

@whknott @JoeWynne lol yup

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@whknott It's like when you use your copier to reproduce copies of an original document too many times #monsterdon

Women in these movies are brilliant at three things

1. Kissin'
2. Sassin'
3. Finding ancient and cursed creatures

#Monsterdon

@diazona @whknott

Bad scripts, acting, sets, music, voiceovers - all have been normalized!!

#Monsterdon Double Feature of Pain
#CurseOfTheAztecMummy

@whknott
Yes, MY ONLY FAULT with this movie!

#Monsterdon Double Feature of Pain
#CurseOfTheAztecMummy

@whknott @JoeWynne Perhaps it's a situation where, having been desensitized to all the other faults, we now get around to the historical accuracy

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@diazona @lytta

Maybe I'm missing something, but I think these #monsterdon movies are *supposed* to be bad? 😂

@diazona She couldn't help it. Sooner or later, the rhythm IS gonna get you.

#Monsterdon

@moira breastplate*

#monsterdon

I think they may have overdubbed the Aztec orchestra with a better rhythm section

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@blogdiva someone was making BANK if they just kept churning this shit out

#monsterdon

(does a a little chair dance)

I still think it's got a good beat

#monsterdon

@hollie Tenochtitlan edition

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

So the Aztec Opera was such a compelling scene in movie 2 they had to bring it back for movie 3. #monsterdon

@nev It's a rare double feature

This one is actually better though (I mean, honestly, there's pretty much no way it could not have been better)

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@hollie Will that be followed by the Da Aztec Vinci Code?

#Monsterdon

@moira The Robot movie had 43 minutes of flashbacks to this movie and this movie had about that much time left. Oh now, what have I do to us?

#monsterdon

The next movie will be called Déjà Vu of the Aztec Mummy

#Monsterdon

@blogdiva Exact same footage

#Monsterdon Double Feature
#CurseOfTheAztecMummy

@Mikal @jchaven @lytta I believe that is accurate

Some ignorable nonsense happened and we are now on Flor flashing back to her previous life as an Aztec

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

"Wny are you wearing that mask?"
"No, no, that story takes too long."

If only the Robot folks had seen that line... #monsterdon

It's a flashback using footage from the movie we saw at 9PM.
#Monsterdon #Curse of the Aztec Mummy

I don't participate in #Monsterdon but I love seeing it on my timeline. Especially tonight when I see it's a double feature!

Thank you for all your silly posts about terrible horror movies, you're all awesome!

Take a shot every time a FLASHBACK happens! #monsterdon #thecurseoftheaztecmummy

Are these flashbacks to the movie we just watched? This is GOLD

#Monsterdon

This is already better than the robot one

#monsterdon

#monsterdon The Youtube copy has dropped frames. Still playing along, ah well. hahahahah

Wait, so they killed the luchador?? How am I this confused ALREADY???

But NO, he's ALIVE!!!

#monsterdon

@diazona @allanb this one is an actual, if silly, movie.

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

Police killed by the Bat[s]men?

#Monsterdon

@blogdiva Are you sure? Maybe the Aztecs sailed around the Caribbean, planting pyramids.

#Monsterdon

@diazona @allanb YEP

ACTUALLY IS

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@blogdiva well there's your luchador

#monsterdon

@allanb Y'know surprisingly it actually is

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

The Angel! #thecurseoftheaztecmummy #monsterdon

@blogdiva

What name does El Santo use when he submits for his car registration and plate?

#Monsterdon Double Feature
#CurseOfTheAztecMummy

@diazona No one tells me anything 😂

How many minutes in are we?

#Monsterdon

@hollie currently about 10 minutes in

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@hollie Yes! The Curse of the Aztec Mummy. Seems to be a sequel or something. https://archive.org/details/CurseOfTheAztecMummylaMaldicionDeLaMomiaAzteca1957-English

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

"you can't kill him, he's the star of this movie!"

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@hollie Curse of the Aztec Mummy, it's on the archive

#monsterdon

hey the bat is a cold-blooded assassin in this one

already much better

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

Wait. The wrestlers are back. Awesome!

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy #DoubleFeature

@lytta does it matter tho

(I think it's later because they talk about revealing the identity of The Bat at the beginning)

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

#monsterdon I think they replaced the machine gun sound with a plastic gear assembly that is slipping.

Who is the wrestler on the scene?

#monsterdon
#TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

It seems like there might be something happening in this one

I wonder if I should pay attention

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

fimally a gaddamn luchador in this luchador movie

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

"He who ran came back to say that the other heroes were buried today" is the most ambiguous possible version of that sentiment

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@Zerofactorial @Mikal @lytta At least The Phantom Planet had a war between tiny peoples.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Is the man in the white car wearing a cape and … helmet?

@CactuarJoe @yatsu We might have seen that movie, in fact

#Monsterdon #TheRobotVsTheAztecMummy

@yatsu @CactuarJoe lol

Although a potato could make a better movie than the one we just watched

#Monsterdon #TheRobotVsTheAztecMummy

@CactuarJoe that would actually make a much better movie than the one we just watched. #monsterdon

@athena_rising This is pretty much the only worthwhile part out of 64 minutes, apart from the grave keeper. #monsterdon

OMG! this is the follow up with a mention of Dr. Bat. it just has new pachucos.

#Monsterdon #CurseOfTheAztecMummy

I don't think Flora and Maria the housekeeper exchanged lines so no Bechdel for us tonight #monsterdon

okay so we're gonna see a lot of reused footage here that isn't actually reused _here_, it's just that we just saw it because of the _previous_ movie I GUESS

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I'm wearing my #Monsterdon shirt tonight!

https://thediremushrump.threadless.com/designs/monsterdon-doodles-color/mens/t-shirt/extra-soft

@jchaven You are a glutton for punishment

#Monsterdon

@whknott "The movie wasn't so hot
It didn't have much of a plot
We fell asleep, our goose is cooked
Our reputation is shot" oh yeah! #Monsterdon #TheRobotVsTheAztecMummy

it was a good #Monsterdon :muppets_waldorf: :muppets_statler:

@hollie but there’s also a screen in the middle of the robot’s torso for someone to view out from. What?!

#Monsterdon

Missed tonight’s #monsterdon? Can't get enough of Aztec Mummies?

→ https://monsterdon-replay.gerlach.dev/the-robot-vs-the-aztec-mummy

Hypnosis! Reincarnation! 60% flashbacks and re-used footage from the prequels! And about 3 minutes of glorious mummy vs. robot shoving at the end.

Also, double feature with its prequel. It's not worse! https://monsterdon-replay.gerlach.dev/the-curse-of-the-aztec-mummy

Those are the evil science experiments that we all fear! #monsterdon
@ramsey @rallias @ohiofi @Violinknitter

@moira ahh now that song is stuck in my head

#Monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

And then it was "Aztec Mummy versus That Old Tupperware That's Been In the Back of the Fridge for Too Long."

Followed by "Aztec Mummy and the Quest for More Box Office Revenue"

#monsterdon
@ohiofi @Violinknitter

@moira I kinda feel like I could (gasp) WATCH IT AGAIN with no distractions? Would that HELP? I dunno, cuz I would still drink every time they said "breastplate"

#monsterdon

I'm thinking we should have done The Vampire's Coffin which was the double bill that The Robot vs The Aztec Mummy was shown with when it was released. My bad.

#monsterdon

@moira I'm going to guess that makes little Catholics? #CauseTheyCantUseBirthControl? #monsterdon

I mean it moved along pretty well and it didn't spend LITERALLY THREE QUARTERS OF ITS RUN TIME IN ONE SINGLE ROOM.

#monsterdon #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy

@Infoseepage They did it in the first act too, he just kinda shakes it and makes the noise with his lips, it's hysterical

#monsterdon

@paco You started it.
