WOOHOO! Giant Chicken! #Monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

Who sees a wasp that size and just stares? Something was wrong with that man's Fight or Flight instinct!

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

(Btw, the actual 'food of the gods' really is from Canada--they're called Butter Tarts.)

#Monsterdon

If there are any more scenic, woody vistas in this film, I'm going to start to suspect they hired Bob Ross as the set designer.

[walks by four "no solicitors" signs]

#monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

NOBODY CALLS ME CHICKEN #Monsterdon

#CanCon #Monsterdon

he died like he lived eating powdered sugar donuts #monsterdon

It's Temu Michael Landon! #Monsterdon

@SnoopJ important? in a #Monsterdon movie?

we worked hard on this make up, it is going on film multiple times.

#monsterdon

Remember Joey in Friends and "smell the fart acting"?

I'm reminded of that with this "shake the camera so they won't notice how fake the creature looks"

#Monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

Ick!Neuman! #Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

I'm suddenly reminded of the mosquito people in China Mieville's The Scar.

(don't get near the hungry ones)

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

He turned into a different person, wow
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

And yes, this is the level of special effects for the whole movie. I remember laughing at it when I was 7.

We coulda been watching Alligator, but ooooh nooooo…

😜

Clearly this guy is allergic to giant mosquitoes

#monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

Shake the camera hard enough and the monster won't look stupid... no nevermind. #monsterdon

oh wow it's the nightmare i have every time i go backpacking in a real movie except the giant mosquitos don't drain me flat as a pancake #monsterdon

@brooke 🎵 black flies, little black flies 🎵

#monsterdon

First guy to die is wearing a red shirt, what a surprise.

#Monsterdon

Wow this movie doesn't hang around!
#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

I didn't realize HG Well wrote a story about football players getting eaten by bugs. #Monsterdon

Was he saying 'my god, my god"

or

'Marjoe! Marjoe!'

#monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

@athena_rising they usually are

#Monsterdon

I'm late to #Monsterdon, I picked up when the horses started. Did I miss anything important?

Shoshomaru?! Are you here too?!

#monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

ope, nope, absolutely not. absolutely not.

#monsterdon

oops

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

That'll teach that red coated bastard a lesson!
#Monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

"I wanna go to the woods and get buzzed!"

#monsterdon

LOL took me a few seconds to realize what that special effect was supposed to be

#monsterdon

I'm guessing that Food of the Gods will turn out to be Soylent Green

#Monsterdon

Horse: I'm TELLING YOU it's a REALLY BAD IDEA TO GO THAT WAY

Rider: GO THAT WAY DAMMIT

Horse: <throws rider> SEEYA I'M OUTTA HERE

Run horsie run!

#Monsterdon

Crap, it’s Winnipeg size mosquitoes! Guy’s a goner for sure if it latches in. #monsterdon

The way is clear the light is good we have no fear and no one should, the woods are just trees, the trees are just wood

Is there something in the glade there?

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

I can tell this movie is going to trigger me. I don't know if I have it in me to hate watch something for 1 hour and 29 minutes.
#Monsterdon

what are those...drones?

#Monsterdon

The barking can stop now thanks #Monsterdon

Faeries!
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

SHAKE THAT RUBBER MOSQUITO

Deathsquitos!

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

Beedemic!

#monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

Red shirt (coat) alert

#monsterdon

Ok, I may be COMPLETELY wrong, but I think those are birding dogs #Monsterdon

so uh... buzzed to death?

#monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

I hope orange-jacket sadist gets his
#monsterdon

He's wearing the fall's hottest color, Eat Me Red. #monsterdon

MarJOE MarJOE it's off to hunt we go. #Monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

The good boys dont want to go in. Never good
#monsterdon

"I chased the thing, now I get to kill it as a reward!" - this guy

#monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

the guy in red can die....

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon
He's wearing a fox jacket to a deer hunt? Wut?

Guy in the red coat must really like the taste of baby deer.

Notice how he’s wearing red. That means he's the first to go.

#Monsterdon

red coat guy going full bambi-killer

#monsterdon

@miru "fang"?

#monsterdon

I can already see the script:
*scream like you're riding a horse*
#Monsterdon

He looks like Barry Manilow and sounds like REO Speedwagon. Our star tonight!

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

#Monsterdon

I suppose shooting in Canada did make it impossible to have a tropical setting.

Oh, great, off to some gratuitous animal cruelty I see.

#monsterdon

We shouldn't fuck up the wilderness with our machines, says man who fucks up wilderness in all sorts of other ways, not least of all animal cruelty.

#monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

Ok, what the heck??? The credits are over and they're still doing the freeze frames.

Who do I complain to?

#Monsterdon

Let's go to some place full of nature where no humans have screwed it up and go chase some things and kill em
#monsterdon

Dogs barking with a Canadian accent. Woof, woof, eh? #Monsterdon

Looks like this was filmed somewhere around Vancouver, like all the greatest sci-fi

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Need a chevron parquet floor, lots of drapes, a white horse and a giant bucket of cocaine!

We got both kinds of shots. Freeze frame and slow motion. #Monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

Chekhov's large animals jumping over barriers?

#Monsterdon

"ha ha ha" the horseback equivalent of "hup hup hup"

#monsterdon

If the food of the gods turns out to be a 7/11 hot dog at 2:37am I'm going to bed.

#monsterdon #thefoodofthegods

#monsterdon Akton: "My name is moreGoneAnniePlayFooBall"

This thing is already a treasure

Oh, an environmental theme.

Things like this always reminds me of George Carlin's line about how the planet is gonna be fine, but the people are fucked, and it's just gonna shake us off like a bad case of fleas.

#Monsterdon

Ooh! Foreshadowing!!

#FoodOfTheGods #monsterdon

I was about to comment, then remembered this movie is from 1976.
I'm going to give it a lot of leeway/
#Monsterdon

Is that the Manitoulan ferry? The Monchichi or whatever it's called?

#monsterdon

@jonny this narration is really reminding me of the recently released "Steamed Hams but it's My Dinner With Andre" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk-Oq8iYtVA

#monsterdon

This talk about getting away into nature feels odd when you're on a roro ferry.

#monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

Can someone adjust the movie's tracking? The video keeps dropping off in the middle of......oh. That's....intentional.

CORKEY!!!!!

#monsterdon #thefoodofthegods

You never know when and where it's going to happen and when it starts you never know when it'll stop and when it stops you'll never know when it will start again and then stop.

#Monsterdon
