If cars exploded that easily, I think we'd all be in trouble. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion1975 oh that's an interesting model of helicopter, i'm not familiar with it
Why is that idiot holding the door open to back up the car? Use your gott damn side-view mirrors.
#monsterdon
Oh the geodes hatched, who could have seen that coming?
Barbara Hale, resourceful as ever. #monsterdon
coconuts? #monsterdon
@SnoopJ That's TV though https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0354853/bio/ #monsterdon
........ did he say "good boy" to the sheriff ?? #monsterdon
can spiders see shrimp colors? #monsterdon
Oh it's so they can figure out the flairs in the next immediate scene gotcha
Faux Alan Hale is taking on the giant spider #Monsterdon
The big, sparkly eyes of a killer

#monsterdon aaaahhhhhh a hoard of children
uh ma'am, miss hale, if you're gonna drop a neutron bomb, maybe you shouldn't be that close. there's only so much a fabulous white pant suit can do for a person, after all. #monsterdon
@Louisa Did Tubi actually have boobs?
#monsterdon
The soundtrack has some Phase IV vibes. not bad actually #Monsterdon
All these under lit shots of just the legs poking out of Silhouettes because the shot is too dark π€¦
#Monsterdon #GiantSpiderInvasion
So they spent all that time showing the rock creep knocking out the shack window to escape before the explosion and then he didn't escape? Huh
Wait, this little podunk town has an actual ambulance, but the sheriff has to duct tape sirens to his car like a schnook?
total lack of verisimilitude
wait, is this a gadget or a gizmo?
He was just about to go do some sheriffing and shit, and the damn PHONE rings one more time. #monsterdon
I'm glad they're using the Chopper again, get your money's worth
That's right, proles, rise up and seize the means of spider production!
i didn't realize that the title "The Giant Spider Invasion" was referring to a single giant spider. It is a (Giant Spider: noun phrase) invasion not a (giant: adjective) (spider: noun) invasion. i kept waiting for more giant spiders but i love our big gal even more now #monsterdon
@CactuarJoe They're just early for Polka Fest. #Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion
kinda looks like it's makin' biscuits in some of the shots #monsterdon
"It's cuttin' through the woods and heading this direction!"
As we see through this shot of... I'm gonna say pipe cleaners being shoved through a clearing at midnight? #Monsterdon
My mom: "My god, it's a spider driving a car!"
Okay, I'm finally interested in kids getting eaten en masse more than background scenery.
Those crowd shots looked barely under control.
Sheriff Skipper is outside? Driving a car? He was paid for action scenes?
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion
It's very funny to me that she needed to use bees as a metaphor to explain the spiders #monsterdon
@SnoopJ Maybe from Perry Mason? #monsterdon

That cop car must've been a Ford Pinto for how easy it exploded
@moira "The republicans arent in yet, you know!" #wrongMovie #Monsterdon
Those look like some friendly fire incidents
Way to go drunk rednecks
@Louisa tubi's paradox #monsterdon
they actually did hurt a lot of people making this movie so he's not wrong about that
#monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion #α½ΒΊα½Θ βΏ Εα½ΒΊαΏ
I think the doctors are acting in a completely different movie that just happens also to be about giant spiders.
The spider's eyes have blinking lights like a halloween decoration, simply terrifying #monsterdon
Packers? PAcKERS! WOOOO! Go Packers. Go guns! Go away cops. Booo!
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion
you can tell it's a Space spider because it's levitating several feet off the ground #monsterdon
@amyfou Maybe that's what the spiders came for
Polka is four times as fun with eight legs

The spiders do appear to have hit a growth plateau. #monsterdon
Spider's all like, "...no, you're trapped in here with ME!"
I like the big glowing giant spider eyes. #Monsterdon
I don't know why this pisses me off so much but he has the same sense of urgency as a teacher with a hangover reading the syllabus #Monsterdon
Look, if you bring in the national guard, they're going to do what the national guard does best: massacre the crowd.
#monsterdon Meanwhile, back in town, outside an all-ages show featuring the Violent Femmes
Will the Big Space Spider eat that goddam preacher already or what #Monsterdon
@diazona It's true, they have these big umbilical cords that tether them to power and when they disconnect they can only run for 1 to 5 minutes depending on plot needs
I may have been watching too much Evangelion lately

Go to Gleason, WI to see the framework for the VW Giant Spider, found in the woods in 2012, by film historian Bill Dexter.
Do the spiders go to the polka festival.
Oh so giant spider Invasion exists in a Cinematic Universe where they know about the Jaws movie
#Monsterdon Bubbler!
The scientists don't actually have a plan to kill the spiders.
They've just got a plan to close the portal. #monsterdon
These cars must have a gas kiddie pool instead of a gas tank to explode so easily #monsterdon
@YsengrinWolf Ironic because some of the spiders are full of car
"I voted for Trump because NASA let Spiders take over my town" is a sadly plausible excuse in this day and age.
Oooo, pop culture reference to a much better monster movie (Jaws), that was bold!
I'm imagining Tubi increasing the frequency and duration of the commercials so that I never actually get any closer to the end of the movie
ok, that's a pretty good shot of the spider. no wheels holding it up, at least.
EVIL DIES TONIGHT! #monsterdon
You ever see that movie that's better than our movie? Well our movie's better! #monsterdon
"Look honey. It's happening. A black hole. It's smoking hot."
More falling over? The are the second clumsiest scientists after the ones in Prometheus.
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion
Sheriff sits on his ass the whole movie then calls the national guard
I know we like to dunk on day-for-night, but the reason it's so common is because if you actually shoot at night, even with pretty decent lighting, you may end up with this
why didn't NASA immediately like call in idk "the military" or whatever, why is NASA still running the giant spider show #monsterdon
I love the hand pump water fountain!
There's a LOT of AMC cars in this movie.
Never talk about a better movie in your shitty movie.

@paco That's what Geordi LaForge would do. Doctor Who would wave their sonic screwdriver at it and spout some wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff.
I'M MAD! #monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion1975 yes, giant spider, destroy the county faire. give the people what they want
listen, if they want a bunch of mass to feed to the spider black hole, they could do worse than sending the mob there. with that many fatheads in one place, it's sure to do the job. #monsterdon
@brooke And yet they were not enough to give the actress a career beyond the three films she made after this #monsterdon
I checked in to the livestream at https://miru.miyaku.media/ if I missed anything I'm sure it's in the stream here
We've entered the mob-scene portion of our feature.

Yes! We have achieved Spider Chaos. The plan is for the townspeople to shoot each other.
#Monsterdon
Black hole, dirt hole, who cares #monsterdon
Hey it looks like downtown Columbus during an OSU game. A lot less cars on fire

Okay Alan, we just need you to sit in this office and pretend to answer the phone for about 20min. There's TWO bottles of Jack Daniel's in it for you. #Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion
This was filmed on ISO25 film stock in the fucking dark, and the camera operator couldn't find the focus either.
wisconsiners when the booze runs out
#monsterdon
Did they actually film at a carnival? Sure looks like it! #monsterdon
#monsterdon You know why we're all here, why we're all so very close together? Everyone strip! It's a rage orgy!

Did he just call Dr Langer honey? Did they fall in love?
More flopping around on the ground. These two are PROFESSIONAL ACTORS.

They heard about the new used car dealership opening! #Monsterdon
