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?

#Monsterdon

Yeah just leave the fence electrified, it'll be fine

#Monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

It's important to have a pregnant woman to increase the drama in the midst of trauma

#monsterdon

We brought the pregnant girl back to the cabin, but she's having a miscarriage, and the bundled up girl is trying to prevent that and wants Not-Jack-Nicholson to help, but he won't because he's bottling up all the rock cum to sell it, which makes her mad.

Meanwhile the bros are driving around debating what kind of fence they need to stop the giant rats.

#monsterdon

That Jeep is getting a lot of screen time
#monsterdon

@nev Don't even joke about that! Do you want to end the world or something? Geez!

#Monsterdon

I've seen movies of hippopotamus, BABY hippopotamus, causing havoc for their keepers!

#Monsterdon

you know what they should feed the Food of the Gods to? MOOSE.

Now THAT'S a fucking kaiju movie

#Monsterdon

This Rat Rave is so cute

#Monsterdon

@brooke #monsterdon

"So, how's your band doing?"
"Lens Flare? Doing great! We're playing the Rat Hole on Saturday!"

@saucerlost It's possible he was paid in alcohol

#monsterdon

HAHAHA. Adorable rat on miniature camper van. #monsterdon

I love the rats on the miniature sets.
Please stop shooting at them.
#Monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

They used that make of model of RV because they knew that there was a off the shelf model 1:12 available.

#monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

Rats climbing into the RV like, FINALLY, we can have a weekend getaway. #Monsterdon

_Gort and wotzername crawl around in the rat tunnels_

_Gort shoots at two giant rats to drive them away_

After shotgun fire in a spot that tightly enclosed, nobody is hearing anything anyone else says for the rest of this movie.

#monsterdon

"Are you okay?"

Well, it's time for us to get eaten, dear. #Monsterdon

LOL@ stumbling across a foreground rat pretending to be a giant rat

#Monsterdon

@amyfou but he has to rescue her

#monsterdon

lol, you guys really fucked that, didn't you?

#Monsterdon

REALLY? I mean it's only 3 feet to the top of the hole

#monsterdon

It really does have to be said that Mrs. Skinner is fulfilling the role of Lassie in this scene. #Monsterdon

Oh no it's the perfectly normal sized rats played at 50% speed!!! #monsterdon

I feel like this wasp's nest is a problem better solved with kilograms of insecticide or fire, not guns.

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

_a giant wasp nest hangs in the forest_

Gort: _observes it, untroubled_

OK, hear me out, we're gonna need a giant rock

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I thought these idiots were going to stay inside their Winnebago?

lol, baby name subplot.....

Straight people.

#Monsterdon

what if the rest of the movie is just a courtroom drama about who's liable

#monsterdon

Oh good there are actual real estate transactions in this movie

#Monsterdon

Okay, that's a legitimate reason to shoot bugs with a gun.

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

That is how you take out drones on the battlefield these days, again this film is prophetic...

#Monsterdon

@tuckerm @forestine "Then up from the ground came the bubbling crude " #Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

"Eat the Rock Cum. Become Giant. Become Cannibal!"
- grocery store slogan in this movie, probably

#monsterdon

🎶…and up from the ground came a-bubblin’ food 🎶

#monsterdon

No cumments at all

#Monsterdon

As a trained bacteriologist, you should always stick your fingers in unknown liquid bacteria - it's just science
#monsterdon

What should eat Jack?

#Monsterdon #foodofthegods

I thought you was a giant grub
#monsterdon

The barn door is destroyed! The chickens are loose!

Fortunately Gonzo is on the case.

#monsterdon

Back in the sports oval, the main bro has to apologize that the other guy (I think their PR guy) got eaten by giant wasps in the woods, which is messing up their game schedule or something. I love the minor inconveniences of people getting eaten by giant wasps (which I thought were mosquitos, oops).

#monsterdon

For the record, the best and safest place to stand while a motor vehicle is trying to extricate itself by vigorously revving the engine is directly in front of it.

#monsterdon

Oo, I claim salvage on the bug! Gonna paint it yellow and soup it up :D #Monsterdon

I wonder if this is based on a shrooms trip? Or peyote? #monsterdon

Is this a pro-league or what , I have no clue
#monsterdon

Okay, so next the guy they were spreading rumors too is driving his volkswagen on an empty road and then it breaks down and he gets out to fix it, only to be swarmed by giant rats. Like rats the size of horses. They eat his face. RIP.

#monsterdon

Oh no that poor toy Volkswagon!

#monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods

Rats off to ya

#Monsterdon

RODENT OF UNUSUAL SIZE!

#Monsterdon

Just put some FOTG on the tire until it's a monster truck

#Monsterdon

LOL - whatever you do, let them keep feeding

#monsterdon

@jsadow Death.
The Island is the land of the dead

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon During these commercial breaks, I sometimes think... “how many people call 1-800-GAMBLER just because they are lonely?”

@ricci @moira

cockteasing?

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Well, that was a short one, but a lot of fun! Goodnight guys!

…

Oh, shit, there's more movie.

I assume if people eat this food, they stay normal size, but if animals eat it they get gigantic? Is that right?

Maybe its some primate mutation that stops humans from getting gigantic from eating the food?

#monsterdon

I wanna ride the ferry

#Monsterdon

Beanie guy looks like Will Ferrel.

#Monsterdon

Give that stuff to your offensive line. You'll aveage 10 yards a carry. #monsterdon

...can we

not

with the wasp closeups please

#Monsterdon

this lady's character is carrying a lot of the narrative weight, she feels like one of those characters at the start of a game

#Monsterdon

He's doing BIG IMPORTANT MONEY STUFF, man! #monsterdon

“Mostly they come out at night… mostly”

#monsterdon

That’s a big cock

#monsterdon

Those chickens are standard Costco size actually.

#ConAgra
#monsterdon

He's essentially fighting a dinosaur bare handed

#Monsterdon

We were somewhere around Edmonton when the drugs began to take hold.
“We can’t stop here… this is bug country!”

#monsterdon

At least this movie killed someone in the first 10 minutes.

#Monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

@floatybirb @klu9 Hey man some of us are Canadians

#Monsterdon

*deer running away from three men on horseback and two trailing hounds*

The entire fediverse, channelling DaShareZone: if it sucks, hit the bricks. Just walk out!

#monsterdon

@cd0 Marjorie Gortner is the Flash Gordon of portions of a novel by H.G. Wells.

#monsterdon #foodofthegods

This movie starts with some boys playing Ice Football, which is like American football (aka "Hand Egg") but played on the snow. It was a practice game.

Then we get a narration where one of the football guys says that they are going to an island to relax before the football game, and he's brought his PR guy (which I'll pretend means "boyfriend" until told otherwise) to the island. It's sort of a misty northern island, I think in Canada because I think all of this is Canadian.

#monsterdon

Is this the prequel to Yellowjackets

#Monsterdon

Wait

Is this a Foote Balle movie

Why was I not made aware

#monsterdon #handEgg

Credits so nice, we titled it twice. #Monsterdon

Hey this can't be that bad, it's H.G. Wells right!? /jk /s

#Monsterdon

Oh boy, I love portions

#Monsterdon

So I think we're watching a movie about this shit or something.

#monsterdon #TheFoodOfTheGods

@moira #monsterdon #WrongFood

Jaws was about food too, if you think about it...

land RAT shark

#monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods2

Don't cross the streams, Egon.

#monsterdon #WrongFood

yes, he's having sex with you, but he's thinking of lab rats

#monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods2

@kshernandez What do you mean? Have YOU ever seen a house flooded like this? How do you KNOW it's not exactly like this? I think some filmmaker must have done a bunch of research to get it so accurately portrayed. Should have won an award for visual effects!

#monsterdon

Man, killer synths kicking in...

I'm having to turn this part up actually. Not even lying.

#Monsterdon

PREPARE FOR HACKER MONTAGE

HACKER MONTAGE INCOMING

HACKER MONTAGE HERE

#monsterdon #FoodOfTheGods2

Ah yes, smashing the monitor. That is a great way to erase the data on a computer because that's how computers work.

(Yes yes, it was a combined casing, but nonetheless, it was the CRT that was smashed. That wouldn't get any of the actual data unless it shorted it or something.)

#Monsterdon

oh wait, this is the beginning of "28 Days After" isn't it?

#monsterdon #WrongFood

#Monsterdon 🐓 🐇 🐄 🌽 🥚 🍿 👺 😱

that was simultaneously a lot of and way too few giant animals but thanks @Taweret for hosting, and @cherizilla for the outstanding chicken-stamped bingo card and @JoeWynne for the reassuring trivia.

Of course, thanks to all you #Monsterdonians who made it fun!

@jsadow @miru the sequel to this #Monsterdon very well might do me in

At least they were trying to address environmental fears back then. Even in this crappy manner. #Monsterdon

Sometimes a man just needs something to do, like make pipe bombs and Molotov cocktails.

#Monsterdon

@MindTGap @Louisa ...spherical giant cows.... #Monsterdon

Oh Simon Fraser--that means I have actually probably been on that same BC ferry but I didn't see any giant animals except geoducks.

#Monsterdon

@patioboater didn't you know that you can just hook up any electricity to anything and it's fine #monsterdon

@nev
He was the Chief in Hill St Blues!
#FoodOfTheGods #monsterdon

@floatybirb Welp, 100% they didn't copy each other! nobody's dumb enoigh to think "I'll rip that off! That rihht there!... gold!" #Monsterdon

@strangefour Evergreen #monsterdon post

This movie would actually have been better if it had a tiresome, obvious, didactic message all the way through instead of just at the end.

#Monsterdon

@otheorange_tag actually now that you mention it is is really strange that we've seen two #monsterdon movies where the monster is some while food that comes out of the ground.
