@Lazarou I think I need to point out this is where the phrase "You'll go blind" came from "... if you're lucky" #Monsterdon

The movie is still happening but I'm not entirely sure why or to what end

honestly, just cut it there. rocks fall, everybody dies.

#Monsterdon

Oh you guys are watching The Gate? That's like pure 1987 in a bottle.

#monsterdon

@allanb Denoument? In #Monsterdon? That's crazy talk

Look at all hims little hands. He needs some handshakes.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

#Monsterdon I find that thing's size *very* imaginable, thanks.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon well damn, turns out they closed jack shit

#monsterdon Technically that big demon likely started several GenX kids into teratophilia. Hey big boy, gonna enslave this world? Maybe you want a little lovin' feelin' first? ;)

Oops, well shut my mouth. A big demon

#monsterdon

Let the moths live!

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

Also important to realize that that kid was the winner. He was just granted administrative power over all the lands of men, and he's just like, "Nah. I'm a' go back to being bullied at my school." #Monsterdon #TheGate

"Guys, I've got this great idea for a palm-eye... can we please just try to fit it in somewhere?"

skinny mushroom cloud

What was the thought process behind making the demons tiny?

#monsterdon

Ross Perot predicted this great sucking cataclysm! #monsterdon

and that's where the social media companies came from... #monsterdon

Necronomicon hand!

#Monsterdon

Parents, let this be a lesson - do not leave your 15 year old in charge of the house for 3 whole days, especially if there is an interdimensional gate to hell in your backyard.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

We all had those Brady Bunch stairs in the 80s

#monsterdon

You, little man, I make my disciple! Extra eye in palm at no extra charge,

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

The scariest thing is the high deductible on their family's homeowner policy #monsterdon

See, this demon just looks confused. #Monsterdon

I would simply let the demons have the house tho

#Monsterdon

Oh that is an ANGY demon face damn
#monsterdon

Love the T-Rex arms
#monsterdon

Not bad Small Things Turning Into Larger Things, either. #monsterdon

uh..... Hi, Satan! Love your music! #monsterdon

That's a big boy!
#monsterdon

And why is shooting a rocket supposed to send demons back to hell? 🧐 #monsterdon

How high are your ceilings?!
#monsterdon

Satan still kinda looks larval to me. #Monsterdon

love the big guy too! #monsterdon

The whirlwind is sucking up all the copies of Omni and Computer Shopper

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

There are times when having little mini arms right there could be handy....lazy times....

#Monsterdon

Oh wow, that's a no-rack shotty

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon little demons / BIG DEMON

Wait the hell mouth is now underneath the house?

#monsterdon

Prayer failed. Let's try launching model rockets indoors! #monsterdon

Oshit...

Maybe if we put some pallets over the hole and pray again it'll be ok #Monsterdon

In 1986 I was drinking a lot of National Bohemian and listening to Sonic Youth

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon energy derived from love and light... my giant rocket!

Sure, I played The Floor is Lava as a kid. But I never played The Floor is the Gaping Mouth of Hell

#Monsterdon

I don't think those stairs were up to code.

#Monsterdon #TheGate

#monsterdon uptown Kids using firearms fighting otherized creatures and plucking eyes with blonde Barbies. What is this? MAGA origin story?

@sean Nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure. #monsterdon

Oh hey the best effects shot in the movie. Debatably. It's a really good one.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

@Terencio "and you better not kill the groove, baby"

"gonna tear this goddamn house right down!"

#monsterdon #TheGate

this kid's going to have a lot of explaining to do when his parents get back eh

#monsterdon

#monsterdon
#TheGate

Now for the REAL gate ...

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

"we're tearing up the dance floor!" #monsterdon

So, this film will be solved by....

#monsterdon #theGate1987

Terry, the ratboy, living in the walls 🎶 #monsterdon

And, sister makes two!

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

Definitely gonna get in trouble! #monsterdon

That was a very Sam Raimi whip zoom! #monsterdon

conventional weapons fail! wait, wrong bingo card #monsterdon

Swear count: 3? maybe 4.

#monsterdon

Keeps the gun next to the Barbie dolls 🥴

#monsterdon

This is a really, really bad movie, everyone

#Monsterdon #TheGate

I guess becoming possessed and/or zombified really does a number on your bite strength

#Monsterdon

I love the crash zoom on the little demon like this is a Bruce Lee movie

#monsterdon

Death by Barbie!!! #Monsterdon

Aren't guns supposed to be in safes or something?

#Monsterdon

a barbie leg thru the eye
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

TERRY IS HANGRY!

#Monsterdon #TheGate

You know at this point, just tell your parents you threw a rager. #Monsterdon

TRIVIA GATE

The SFX team was most proud of the 'Dead Workman falls and shatters into swarm of Minions' scene. SFX specialist Cook said it had not been seen since Tex Avery cartoons.

The workman fell from being suspended from the ceiling. Shot was stopped when he hit. Minions laid on ground contorted in shapes of his body parts on ground. They would explode out in subsequent part of the scene to complete the transition.

Three scene components and two frame rates!

Somebody had the foresight to make this house's walls *extremely* spacious

#Monsterdon

Love those little demons
#monsterdon

Poor Terry. Mom died. Fell down the hell mouth. Got dragged back by a zombie. He's just the one that everything has to happen to. #monsterdon

Boom box did him in
#monsterdon

So many creepy things happen in that big foyer with the front door. It's enough to make you afraid of an open floor plan.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

"out of one, many"! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon the boombox is a surprisingly effective thrown weapon

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

You spoke him into being, Terry, because you are an all-powerful wizard! Accept your destiny!!

WALL ZOMBIE, what???? #monsterdon

Oh, it seals itself up, I stand corrected #Monsterdon
