But Terry is an amateur exorcist, so … #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon God is my Hightower? Is this a Police Academy movie?

The hole wasn't so much a "gate", more a "hole"

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon he lost a shoe, I'm picturing one of those little guys finding it and making a cute lil bed

"You left the flashlight!" "That's okay it's only good for about four more minutes anyway!"

#monsterdon #TheGate

Brad’s brave to be jumping on the ex-hole.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

@moira Readers digest before readers digest. #Monsterdon

Lobbeth thy holy hand bible of Antioch at thy foe

who — being naughty in my eyes — shall snuff it

#Monsterdon

@apLundell Are we talking one demon-sized kid versus a hundred kid-sized demons? 😛

#Monsterdon

YES
MY RECALL IS INFALLIBLE

#monsterdon

thus began terry's long and storied career as an exorcist and demon hunter

#monsterdon

These don't seem like major demons so much as bitey homunculi #monsterdon

Read the bit about Jesus hating figs #Monsterdon #NotATypo

Sunday School Bible Passages ... FTW!!

#Monsterdon

Well, we just gotta throw in more explosive bibles. Problem solved.

#monsterdon #TheGate

The best part about these demons is how a nerdy human kid can kick their asses one-on-one. #Monsterdon #TheGate

eat the bible

eat it

#monsterdon #TheGate

that'll do it, read the entire bible #monsterdon

Sacralicious.

#monsterdon #theGate1987

That kids mid-teen voice in struggle is so on point but rough to listen to.

#Monsterdon
#TheGate

apparently Terry didn't go to Bible school. #monsterdon

swear count: 2

bibles burned: 1

#monsterdon

You know I love a Little Guy, but these ones need to take a page out of the Critters' book and kill a few sheriffs first. #monsterdon

#monsterdon "You've got to be kidding!" Looks like they got a portal to Quake 2 there

What you're gonna do is jump into the hellmouth and have an adventure, clearly

#Monsterdon

Yes, Brad, close the Hellmouth with Terry inside.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

@rickpelletier The temperature gradient between Gehennom and Zamhareer makes that place windy as... well... you know. #Monsterdon #TheGate

When Dad gets home he's going to be so angry that the party selling them the house did not properly disclose the existence of a demon gate at the close #monsterdon

oh no save Terry! I like him! #monsterdon

@trixter they hongry little guys
they already ate everything
#monsterdon

oh, NOW they wanna pray? #monsterdon

Try KICKING maybe?

#monsterdon

No, not Terry!! He's the only character whose name I have managed to remember!!!!

#Monsterdon #TheGate

#Monsterdon 🧒 🧒 ⛏️ 💰 🌪️ 🔥 👿 😱

all the little demons have little triangle tails

Those little demons have a great Evil Dead vibe. The wormy form was great.

#Monsterdon

I didn't know Hell was just a cave full of lil' impy dudes.

#monsterdon #TheGate

#Monsterdon i love the little demon guys teaming up to pull his leg

Terry, demon slayer!

#monsterdon

@steggy Exactly. #Monsterdon

Terry vs Ray Harryhausen

#monsterdon

Those little guys are awesome.

#Monsterdon
#TheGate

"actual size."

#monsterdon #TheGate

You can make up a metal band but people will notice if you make up Bible.

#monsterdon #TheGate

I remember the minions being more yellow and silly and obsessed with BANANA 🍌 #monsterdon

Nice fog-sucking effect. #monsterdon

Is this the Goonies wishing well set?

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon man what is the air pressure in hell??? Hell air just comes blasting outta that hole every time it's opened

well, shit
#monsterdon

Welp, gotta jump in and get him now

#Monsterdon

Welp, that's one. #Monsterdon

More Raimi vision. #Monsterdon #TheGate

The hellmouth is vaporwave #monsterdon

that's some top-notch horror movie holesmanship #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Are they on Elm Street?

There's a bisexual lighting party going on down in Hell.

#monsterdon #TheGate

Nice smoke machine work.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

Hellmouth sucks

#monsterdon

"I hope this works"

Well we have half an hour left so I'm going to guess no

#Monsterdon #TheGate

Mom: "somebody down there has really bad heartburn" #monsterdon #thegate

@diazona I think the top row is complete also. #monsterdon

Those girls are all too aware that they are barely named characters in a film demanding sacrifices. Well done! #Monsterdon

@strangefour When I was 5, I started thinking I was the real monster, not what was under the bed. #LiveAndLetLive #Monsterdon

Wait we still don't know where the dog is??? #monsterdon #thegate

Aaahh super creepy gloppy parent ghouls! #Monsterdon

I think I know who's gonna be the 2 human sacrifices.

#monsterdon

They're gonna walk the witches road.

#Monsterdon #TheGate

Seriously doubt Thing 1 and Thing 2 are gonna make it out alive, like, totally.

#Monsterdon #TheGate

I bet Terry has a copy of Tobin's Spirit Guide back at home. His dad probably picked that up in Europe, too.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

Can't believe the cowardice of the Lee sisters....so disappointed in them

#Monsterdon

Well, the two stay-overs just volunteered to be the needed two sacrifices.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

ha! the Lee sisters know what's up. #monsterdon

somebody needs to give those girls some scooby snax, get 'em back in the game

#monsterdon #TheGate

@blogdiva The demons should expect a letter from the big guy's lawyer #monsterdon

I'm guessing Mrs Vandegrift is gonna be science-teacher-to-the-rescue at the end. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🧒 🧒 ⛏️ 💰 🌪️ 🔥 👿 😱

The batteries in those flashlights are all gonna be dead in 15 mins

Speaking of gates to Hell:

#monsterdon
#TheGate

They are all armed with Notoriously Unreliable Flashlight TM. When you need your light to dim and flicker out for dramatic effect, only Notoriously Unreliable Flashlight will do! #Monsterdon #TheGate

I guess parents really were negligent in the 80s.
#Monsterdon

should she be holding an open flame so close to her bangs? how much product does that require?

#monsterdon

Oh, so were demons the original genAI?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon and that's Two BINGOS!

@Rozzychan Not in the 80s for sure.

#Monsterdon

"And Arpaxad begat Saleh... and Saleh begat Eber..."

#Monsterdon

yeah, we went to sunday school.
lololol forever.
#monsterdon

Terry knows his stuff.

"These guys are older than the Bible."

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

We've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty. #Monsterdon #thegate1987

Nice re-touched family photo

So much for *that* copy of the Necronomicon.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

THANKS, RIAA

GREAT JOB

#monsterdon #TheGate

I love them. They are so unsettling and goofy.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

#monsterdon I had one ot those 😿

(The lanterns, not the black magic manuals)

These kids are definitely traumatized for life. #monsterdon

Worse. The demons are *hair* metal fans!

#monsterdon #theGate1987

#Monsterdon careful of the fire! Keep it away from Princess Aquanet over there!

The kids Oedipus Complex is calling them #Monsterdon

That's great claymation! #monsterdon

ah fuck i might actually have to watch more of this SFX commentary than i did before #monsterdon

80s films are the real reason no-one has landlines any more.

#Monsterdon

Has no one heard of a gun safe?
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon well, that's gonna require some therapy...

Terry's time to shine

#monsterdon
