Go on lady, it's your death scene., give it your all!
Look, the answer is obvious. Just find a bunch of cats and feed them the Food of the Gods.
Genuinely concerned as to how they're doing the 'rat shots'
Ha, she passed the quicktime event with flying colors, someone get this woman a streaming setup and a copy of Resident Evil 4 :D #Monsterdon
Special effects designer Thomas R. Burman created rat costumes that allowed for the giant rats in the film to be played by child actors, including his own son.
Rats fucked off into a pastoral documentary. #Monsterdon
I donβt think heβs going to make it to Chicago.
A fan theory is confirmed by dialog, as the puny humans also think the white rat is the leader.
As a man who greatly enjoyed βYeti: Giant of the 20th Centuryβ I find this electrified fence to be β¦ um, scientifically implausible.
Okay getting a little uncomfortable about how little we know about whether animals were treated well on this set :/
He died as he lived
Nibbled. #Monsterdon
I for one welcome our new vermin overlords
fuck that generator, it knew this day was coming #monsterdon
lol, Marjoe's gone full MacGyver on this island....
It suddenly occurs to me to wonder why discount-bin Harrison Ford brought his very pregnant wife to a remote wilderness island in an RV.
No. No, I donβt think I want to know.
EVERYONE STOP *WHINING* AT EACH OTHER, CHRIST #Monsterdon
I feel like Lorna is wearing all that beige very aggressively
I think i'm going to call this actor "Harrison Fred" #monsterdon
@JoeWynne Your definition of 'unharmed' and the rats may be very different. #monsterdon
All the giant rat scenes in this movie just show us small rats up close, being normal specimens of rodentia, coupled with buckass whacko sound effects like you might hear in the background of a spooky inside roller coaster at a theme park.
Something tells me that at no point in this movie is anyone ever going to make a decision that is not extremely stupid
While Bundle Gal bandages up Hat Gal, the two bros hatch a cunning plan to deal with the wasps, by stuffing oily rags up the wasp nest and then lighting it on fire from a safe distance. Because giant wasps store all their ammunition in their wasp nest, this makes the wasp nest explode.
how do Footballers know how to make a bomb out of fertilizers? Are they in the 'RA?
Huh. Well, that's it I guess. The rest of the movie is football practice footage. #monsterdon
Eat. Prey. Bugs.
"The lord healeth the sick, that's in the bible"
Great, lady, but the bible's also full of plagues, which we're really trying to avoid around here. #Monsterdon
Oops! We forgot to give pregnant lady a microphone.
...Can these two get eaten already? #Monsterdon
Yes, Not-Jack-Nicholson, please discuss the legal ramifications of who owns the Rock Cum that makes giant killer animals. It's very important that we figure out how to monetize this and ensure that you own it.
Never bring a shovel to a giant wasp fight
#monsterdon
Giant, transparent wasps. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon That's the coming of the lord! Hahahahah! Spooge. Texas Scum. White Gold!
Effervescent oatmeal..?
(Not even the worst food innovation I've seen this week, to be honest.)
K not making AAANNNNNYYY comments about the spring of the FOTG
#monsterdon Come on baby, sweet-cheeks, love-muffins, sweet-money-cracks... they escalate with the homoromantic phrasing.
Ah, yes, throwing open a fence of unknown purpose without thinking it through. This is well known to have no negative consequences.
It's the rats that the old woman mentioned in scene 24! #monsterdon
@paco What she does at night for entertainment is stare at the cracks in the ceiling
Clearly without their leader the other chickens are nothing but submissive.
Gotta love how this movie really uses that Ferry, it's such a powerful motif....
@overholt Whelp. That's a wrap. Thanks for coming everyone!
Wait, it's still playing. Why is it still playing?
So our heroes left the island of giant animals and our story came to a close. #Monsterdon
those look like rat holes just the same as tom and jerry holes look like mouse holes
"The poor bastard lost, what more do you want?"
BLOOD, BLOOD AND ENTRAILS #Monsterdon
Bert... Nobody is fooled when you spell your name B.I. Gordon >_> #Monsterdon
one thing a scientist would know is exactly how much funding it takes to run their lab.
I didn't know rats ate nuts. DOZE NUTS lmao gottem
So, another 70βs fright fest. Rats, capitalists, and country bumpkins. Thanks, @Taweret for bringing us all together to vent! Looking for a change of pace for next week. But no rats and no giant babies! #Monsterdon
Kids, this is exactly what it's like to work in a lab.
"Bobby was one of the sweetest kids you could ever know."
Kid: "I need you to get the f@#! out of my room!"
Wow... So this stuff makes one slightly less nice?
And this is why raw milk is a bad idea.
#monsterdon And that's that! They fuckered off to 3rd grade.... thanks @Taweret for a fun trip!
#monsterdon Cows of unusual size?
Donβt milk stone giants is the lesson here.
Funny thing, the title in Brazil for this movie is "attack of the atomic beasts"
#monsterdon
@Louisa assumptions have been made
So they killed all the big rodents and burned em up and effed off back to the mainland.
THE END
Mission Accomplished right? Big flood...dilution is the solution to pollution right? Certainly no other Large Creatures exist right?
HA
This movie is ending where it should've started WE NEED GIANT COWS
And GIANT BABIES
That would've been awesome!
Still had a fun #Monsterdon time thanks for all the big fun @Taweret !
@trixter Bert I. Gordon: I know filmmakers who use metaphor, and they're all cowards. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon so how is it that these rats can't swim? is it just cause they're big?
"Jon Cypher" sounds like a name I would use if I were acting in a bad movie and didn't want to be credited
Awesome ending. Fun time. #monsterdon
Main bro monologues about how bad it would be if some of the food of the gods gets away while we see some floating away into a pond that cows are drinking water from, so we'll get a sequel with killer cows I guess.
Very Gary Larsen.
But one or two jars made it.
Well, that film was too long and had too many real animal killings. π
Thanks @Taweret and #monsterdon gang
#Monsterdon they sure didn't shy away from using male rats
Rat People (Putting Out Fire With Gasoline) #Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods1976
#monsterdon
Don't set up for a sequel. Please..
is the protagonist a high school football player??? or is just an adult and plays in some intermural league??? surely the doctor is in their late twenties as a doctor #monsterdon
Life⦠finds a way
C'mon giant baby
why are we piling rat corpses when we could be feeding the baby the giant food
...Bert did you actually drown rats for this scene
Bert
Bert I'm talking to you
Bert listen to me
the flood came and knocked all the mice that were already on the roof off, and all of the ones on the side forgot how to climb, thank god #monsterdon
Bert I Gordon like, okay, so we've got some rats up on the photo of the house. Honey, I need you to throw the juice glass of water at them. #Monsterdon
Those rats chewed through the walls of a _log cabin_, we're expected to believe a hollow-core door is going to hold them off?? Those things can't withstand an over-energetic eight year old falling into them!
uhhhhh or so I have heard
Chekovs Dam
Wait so football dude, just made all the bombs, threw one and drove away?
They et the old lady. Oh noes! #monsterdon
So the goop doesnβt work on adults. And the lady will have a baby soonβ¦
HERE'S RATTY!
Even knowing that it's paintballs, I don't like super cute rats getting shot. They don't look like giant terrifying monsters. They are so cute!
@trixter love those models! #Monsterdon
Hahaha
Those rats have hacked our WiFi! No calls will go through!
(Cut to rat at a tiny laptop)
This movie is far, far too long
#monsterdon
After escaping some rats, sidekick bro is eaten by other rats. Main bro comes back to the cabin to toss the jars of rock cum out of Not-Jack-Nicholson's trunk, making Not-Jack-Nicholson mad, but this doesn't matter because he is then eaten by rats.
Having seen Night of the Living Dead and also Zulu, the surviving puny humans opt to fortify the cabin and start shooting the giant rats outside. I hope no real rats were harmed in the making of this movie.
The white one is the Rat King
lol Capitalist Jack gets eaten by rats....perfect!
Did he just shoot his "friend" and LEAVE HIM?
#Monsterdon
Yeah, I didn't think Marjoe Gortner could outsmart a rat. #Monsterdon
Are they just going to copy EVERYTHING from The Princess Bride?
This actress is the least convincing country bumpkin religious person.
#monsterdon
The look of pure joy on Marjoe's face as he electrifies giant rodents....is that what Evangelicals strive for?
