aww, baby's first demon banishing #monsterdon

just toss the whole Bible in, it's the only way to be sure #monsterdon

They go back and the sisters are dead. Happy Ending. #Monsterdon #TheGate

Fire is the devil's only friend

#monsterdon
#TheGate

And that's why you don't do fracking, kids

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheGate

@brooke The Holy Hand Grenade! #Monsterdon

I think they should just let these delightful smol demons take over...the world can't be any worse than without them #Monsterdon

The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch! #monsterdon

@diazona It's not near as straight foward as regular bingo....#monsterdon

Terry probably went on to help make "The Call of Cthulhu" when he grew up.

#Monsterdon

Terry didn’t even get the the “light” part.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

shite *throws bible into Hole*
okay, i have to admit, Terry's growing on me.
#monsterdon

"Read anything!"

Okay, well, there's this bit from Leviticus about not eating grasshoppers, that'll do. #Monsterdon

HE bible

#monsterdon

"You are now entering... The Scary Gate"

#Monsterdon

I feel like the little demons are misunderstood. They were just 'standing their ground' with ... teeth.

#Monsterdon

This is honestly the first time I've actually felt tense during a #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Movies like this have a lot of protracted scenes that are just indistinct shouting.

"Woooah" "Ahhhhh!" "ooooooh!"

This is TERRYBLE

AAhhahhahahahaha

#Monsterdon #TheGate

@Ayyyydrew Heaven knows we could use the eggs? #WrongJoke #Monsterdon

#monsterdon just another day in small-town America..

That’s how I stomp lanternflies.

#Monsterdon

@blogdiva It was baby Gojira! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Ooh. Monsters under the bed is a classic.

#monsterdon Gulliver's Nightmares, little pint sized fleshy sacks of yuck.

love these creepy little guys #monsterdon

Tree house rope to the rescue!

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

@MatthewTitus88 I was counting that as just a hole, not a portal

#Monsterdon

Alternate title: Hungry Hungry Ghoulies

#Monsterdon #TheGate

it's interesting that they can in fact be stompied

#monsterdon #TheGate

@amyfou I know, I know, it’s really serious #Monsterdon

'terry meets a new friends in the most unlikely place"
#monsterdon

Hi ho. Hi ho. It's up from hell we go. #Monsterdon #TheGate

Okay so it's a hole that gives off purple flashing light and mist, they should offer it a disco ball, not prayer

#Monsterdon #TheGate

Buffet! Buffet is on!

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

These little demonlings are so kinda cute…

Except when they bite.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

#monsterdon Classic question : Who would win? One kid, or a hundred demons?

I love the lil claymation guys so much

#Monsterdon

Serious demony scares! #Monsterdon

"Hi.... uh... Hail Satan!" #monsterdon

“Klaatu barada nikto”

#Monsterdon

@MatthewTitus88 Nah I'm still waiting for "Portal opens" for that one. (I mean, maybe the opening of a portal is implied, but we haven't seen it yet)

#Monsterdon

They need that nerdy witch girl from the party, don't they?

#Monsterdon

WELCOME TO HELL #monsterdon

The girls know they're redshirts! #monsterdon

Those are some cut-rate biblical rites. Cut-rites? #Monsterdon

They're all going to feel really silly when they discover that this is all a ruptured gas line.

#monsterdon #theGate1987

bisexual demon lighting?
#monsterdon

If I know one thing about the fediverse, it's this: a Bakelite joke always lands. #monsterdon

A little bit grey aliens, a little bit goblins, alot moving not quite like how people would in a slightly off frame rate.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

Itty bitty demons?

#monsterdon

So I'm guessing the demons did stay, and now we're living the Hell on Earth. #monsterdon

"We went to sunday school!"

Great, we can subject the demons to an hourlong tirade about how the whole camel-through-the-eye-of-the-needle is just a metaphor. #Monsterdon

oh good we've entered the "prayer will save us" arc #monsterdon

I'm unhappy that the actress playing Al didn't have a longer career. She's not the worst part of this movie #monsterdon

They should read the part about killing the fig tree. #Monsterdon #TheGate

"Somebody knock her oat again"

🚨 CANADIAN CHILD DETECTED 🚨

#Monsterdon

He's annoying, but not THAT annoying
#Monsterdon

YOU'VE BEEN BAAAAAAD! #monsterdon

Just one great practical effect after another at this point. #Monsterdon #TheGate

This movie really does have some fantastic practical effects. 💯

#Monsterdon #TheGate

#monsterdon "We went to Sunday School!"

That's a hilarious line.

that's just dad's Slayer album! #monsterdon

I love how demons are beaten down by a priest holding a crucifix but modern telecommunications are no obstacle

#Monsterdon #TheGate

@srol I think most directors didn't give a fuck if child actors were traumatized by it. #monsterdon #TheGate

"Demons!? What kind!"

Grape, lemon-lime, and orange demons, of course. WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT KIND, WHAT AM I A ZOOLOGIST? #Monsterdon

#monsterdon alright that's some very respectable stop motion scary demon mans

Good claymation! That was creepy! #monsterdon

upshot: that's the phone company's phone, they'll send a guy with a new one

#Monsterdon

YOU'VE BEEN BANNNNNNNED

#monsterdon

Ooh, ooh, creepy hands from under the bed #Monsterdon

I love the tiny claymation demons! They are my favorite in this whole movie!!

#Monsterdon #TheGate

I guess that was a call on the hot line.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1986

Dad is going to become Beetlejuice

#monsterdon

Hello, did someone call Demonoes?

#Monsterdon
#TheGate

Okay, the arm thing was gross and weird and also cool

#Monsterdon

Most. Ridiculous. Monsters. Ever.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon The demons are goofy, but I enjoyed that telephone scene.

they're just little guuuuuys

#monsterdon

"We'd like to talk to you about your cars extended warranty..." #monsterdon #thegate

#Monsterdon these kids should go to the ONE place the demons wouldn't expect.... into the hole!

The real monster under the bed is the friends we made along the way.
#Monsterdon #TheGate

YES DEMON BABBIES!

#monsterdon #TheGate

oh this is the good shit right here

#Monsterdon

TRIVIA GATE

A large amount of work went into the Minions SFX. 15 suits were constructed from polyfoam. Creature Designer Cook was inspired by 'Darby O'Gill and the Little People' from 1959.

Turns out the mechanisms in the suits did not work, but filmmakers liked the "fascinating, stupid fish look."

#TheGate

Demon babies! They're so cute. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🧒 🧒 ⛏️ 💰 🌪️ 🔥 👿 😱

That's the weirdest back door in the universe

Those are great special effects!!! #monsterdon

This girl is brave going by herself after almost being abducted to under the bed.

#Monsterdon #TheGate1987

Well this escalated quickly!!

#Monsterdon #TheGate

SLIME TIME! #monsterdon

#monsterdon 🎶 Oh I've got a hellmouth barely covered up, you've got a big dead dog 🎶

This film is certainly hitting all the 80's moral panics- Satanism, Lyrics in general, kids playing with guns and of course squeezing goo out of your parent's faces

when I grow up, I'm gonna make MY KIDS watch this film!

#monsterdon

These guys owe Sam Raimi some serious props. #Monsterdon #TheGate

This is like, Goosebumps Poltergeist :D #Monsterdon

80’s movies! fun for the whole family!! #monsterdon

Starting to think they might, indeed, have demons. #monsterdon

Oh - Terry becomes Garth from Wayne's World

#monsterdon

So that's where the other half of the sock pairs go
