one of these toy rockets HAS to be effective against a demon horde

#Monsterdon

Nobody ever got demons from listening to Talking Heads

#monsterdon

Hiding under the bed is no good if the bed disappears.

#monsterdon

Yeah I guess keeping a bunch of moths trapped in a jar was kinda cruel. Glad we resolved that plotline.

#Monsterdon

No, hell on earth would be if those boyfriends came back too #monsterdon

Demons not going to get fooled by the 'Take me Instead' game!

#Monsterdon

So have we learned yet why we don't leave the kids for the weekend #monsterdon #thegate

what the fuck movie #monsterdon

I didn't get why the demon overlord just petted the kid on the head. Wasn't he even worth of a demon snack?
#monsterdon

Fortunately it happened to suffer from bipolar disorder and executive dysfunction #monsterdon

@jonny

A matchbox of our own
A fence of real chain link
A grill out on the patio
Disposal in the sink
A washer and a dryer and
An ironing machine
In a tract house that we share
Somewhere that's green

#Monsterdon

That Demon is going to have to speak to the HOA for many many violations.

#Monsterdon

@socketwench 😂

#Monsterdon

Still no idea what the significance of the moths is #monsterdon #thegate

God's like, hey jerk, remember those moths you were trying to kill? #Monsterdon

this movie gets pretty damn bleak for something with an 11 year old protagonist

#monsterdon

Does he just have a large banana plushie?
#monsterdon

I'm hoping I'm wrong, but I feel an "it was all a dream" coming on. #monsterdon

Cross the beams now! Close the portal!

#Monsterdon
#TheGate

How much money did this film blow on animating this cacodemon or whatever it is? #monsterdon

oh is this an IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS type ending? that'd be rad as hell

#Monsterdon

Yep, we're looking at an inverse tornado warning for Elkwood County

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon All of that was written on the walls in blood. Didn't want to admit that they were being literal though, but props to them, for eyeball in hand installation without an OR theater or scalpels, or slimy eyeball bits.

@diazona Oh, I get it. Demonic jet lag. Woof, that's gotta suck. #Monsterdon

Oops. Demons hit a gas main. Don't light a match. #Monsterdon #TheGate

Where did they find this video of me farting?

#monsterdon #TheGate

I think the demon wants to play catch

#Monsterdon

penicillin will clear that eyeball right up #Monsterdon

@ramsey do they kick really high?! --dad #Monsterdon

Glenn now has excellent Hand-Eye coordination.

#monsterdon #theGate1987

@CactuarJoe And who can blame him, after an interdimensional trip like that

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🧒 🧒 ⛏️ 💰 🌪️ 🔥 👿 😱

giant demon pet small child

why does the dark lord look like porunga

#Monsterdon

No, don't turn me into the Pan's Labyrinth monster, I hate subtitles

#monsterdon

get a really wide brimmed hat and a fancy cape kid, an eyeball in your hand is no big deal. #monsterdon

That umbrella policy? Yeah it covers this too.

#Monsterdon
#TheGate

I think this would be better if the little guys had a language #monsterdon

Wait. What just happened? Why did the Big Bad run off?

#Monsterdon

A moment of monster sentimentality?

#monsterdon

Do they have liability coverage for this?

#Monsterdon
#TheGate

@sean "Stop and Staaairs... 🎶 " --onerepublic #WrongSong #Monsterdon

So, daddy demon come to dinner
#monsterdon

turns out Satan was the lil' protagonist all along.... #monsterdon

He's got a little friend in his hand now. #Monsterdon #TheGate

The power of whimpering has saved the day! #monsterdon

Honestly, what would the rocket do though? #monsterdon

The Gate was never in the yard. The Gate is the house. The gate is the way. The stars are right once more! Time for some little demon dudes to party.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

It is important to note that this guy, while big, is just as soft and squishy as the little ones. #Monsterdon #TheGate

#Monsterdon didn't this happen in evil dead?

I would call a friend and be like 'hey can I stay at your house cause demons took mine'

#Monsterdon

Eeewwww, now you'll be seeing palm sweat forever...

#monsterdon #theGate1987

This was quite impressive #monsterdon

I SPY WITH MY EXTRA EYE

#monsterdon #TheGate

Aw. So gentle. #Monsterdon

I love their tiny butts!!! 🍑

#Monsterdon #TheGate #BUTTS

Demon…phone…home.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

when was The Gate released, relative to Beetlejuice?

#monsterdon

"Oh yeah? Well my rocket is bigger than yours!"
#monsterdon

Why *does* Glenn's house have such a giant foyer anyways? Is it for Dark Lord summoning purposes?

Are Glenn's parents *in* on this!?

#monsterdon #theGate1987

Throw the horns kid! Show him you know how to rock out!

#Monsterdon
#TheGate

That's a hell of a large ceiling

#monsterdon

SOMEBODY HAND THAT GUY A UKULELE

#Monsterdon #TheGate

#Monsterdon did they have, like, one mocap actor for the little demons or 100

please put on your 3D glasses

#Monsterdon

@wohali yeah, really well done, very very nice

#monsterdon #TheGate

@wohali Vapor barrier. Demon barrier. Furring strips. Second demon barrier. Gypsum wallboard. Just gotta remember NO GEODES. #Monsterdon #TheGate

omg the upper arms

#Monsterdon

Mom: "'Daddy's home!!'" #monsterdon #thegate

My, you're big!

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

I guess the first one in the backyard was just their starter hellmouth, and now they've upgraded

#Monsterdon

this is awesome

#Monsterdon

That's the wrong thunderbolt
#monsterdon

Sure, mom and dad will be mad about the paint on the walls and the broken-out windows, but those are all pretty cheap to replace compared to the flooring downstairs opening over pit to hell. Your allowance is forfeit forever, kid.

#Monsterdon #TheGate

Heeeeere's Ghoulie!

#Monsterdon #TheGate

Big Demon is mutant Joe Camel?

#monsterdon #TheGate

Look at the lil' dudes dancing around and doing a summoning!

#monsterdon #TheGate

These minions are not unlike the yellow ones.

#monsterdon

Hope the kid was vaxxed for rabies #Monsterdon

Load the Chekov! Get ready to shoot the fisheyed little kobolds.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

Wow. Goosebumps is more hardcore than I remembered. #Monsterdon #thegate1987

#Monsterdon

That's #MonsterdonBingo for me

#Monsterdon

I had to step away, so am only 40 minutes in. No #Monsterdon spoilers, please! 🤪

Now we're on Night of the Living Dead territory.

#Monsterdon

This was how homes were built before national building codes were established.

#Monsterdon

Wow the resale value of this house had dropped considerably.

#Monsterdon
#TheGate

This is actually an elaborate infomercial for a windproof lighter. #Monsterdon

never underestimate an 80’s kid with a box of matches #Monsterdon

Suburban houses all built on demonic portals to hell? How else do you think they keep the properties so affordable

#monsterdon

Dance, minions, dance!

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

It'd be hilarious if the dark lord were really just Big Zoidburg.

#monsterdon #theGate1987

I love their little impish glee as the big one arrives...

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon I forgot how annoyingly noisy this movie is...

Can they just shut the heck up for a couple of scenes?

You dont build tensension by

AAAAAH, AAAAHAH TERRH,.AAAAAH SHRIEK, SHRIEK, HEAVY BREATING AAAAAH, SCREAM,,AAAAH , MUSIC STING, MUSIC STING,
AHHHHH, WOOOSH, MUSIC STING,.AAAAAAHH SHRIEK, HEHEHE, AAAAHHH, SHRIEKING, MONSTER SOUNDS, WIND, AAAAAAAHAH, TERRY!!!!! SHOUTING EXPOSITION..

Went straight for the rocket and ignored the Robo Strux that was right there... rookie.

#Monsterdon

so the atrium's ceiling is basically stolen from a mall?

#monsterdon #TheGate

he needs Buzz Lightyear's little head bubble thing to light that rocket. #monsterdon

Blaming bad things on members of the working class is a pretty authoritarian move #monsterdon

Terry is now a ratboy in the closet.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

Called the Chekhov's rocket #monsterdon

Checkov's Thunderbolt! #monsterdon
