oh oh, the blood from his mouth was nice. #monsterdon

Love the disgust on the line read "god, another one" #monsterdon

Heh. Terrible, hokey movies and pretending they're better than whatever hit movie they're aping, I can't think of a better combination :P

Yeah, you cast shade at Jaws, Spider Invasion. I'm sure Spielberg is being kept up nights by your little production here :P #Monsterdon

I’m begging you, Alan Hale, button at least one more button on your shirt. #Monsterdon

Wasn’t this area full of toxic radiation? #Monsterdon

I've got a man from NASA and he knows what he's doing probably shouldn't belong in the same sentence anymore

#monsterdon

There's a LOT of AMC cars in this movie.

#monsterdon

Never talk about a better movie in your shitty movie.

@jonny

I believe it went something like:

“we have to close the black hole”

“we should shove more matter into it until it chokes and blocks up”

“oh, you mean neutron rays? great idea!”

… though I, too, may not have been paying full attention.

#monsterdon

I agree. Boo the police #monsterdon #thegiantspiderinvasion

They didn't get this crowd of gun toting hicks for the movie, that was just happening anyway and a camera team followed them....

#monsterdon

Wait did I just hear that the giant spiders have to draw energy from a lifeline into another dimension?

whaaaaaaaa 🤦

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

#monsterdon movie: we couod choke it with the extra mass
Me: *thrusting*

Rookie mistake to get your mob to cluster that close. It gets like Twitch Plays Pokemon, you can't move anywhere. #monsterdon

And here's why you don't actually shoot at night for these movies

all hail the blue filters

#Monsterdon #GiantSpiderInvasion

Everyone is driving an AMC, including the cops and mobs!

#monsterdon

woah hey night for night okay

#monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion #ᄽºὁȍ ‿ őὀºᄿ

DAY FILMED AS NIGHT!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Will somespider PLEASE eat the sheriff already

@SordidAmok I mean why not at this point

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

"this is my hole! it was made for me!"

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

Poor spider just wants to take all its children to the fair.

#Monsterdon

Why can’t these white dudes have fun at the Polka Festival, leave the giant spider alone! It just has a taste for human flesh! #Monsterdon

another dead mime corpse!

#monsterdon

My black hole has also turned into an open doorway from hell.

#Monsterdon

the spider portal: go girl give us nothing
#monsterdon

Actually hold up: there would be like a thousand people crowding around it taken selfies for Instagram, and only if the scientists could get through that crowd they would try to make friends with it

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

So does everybody in this town drive pintos? #monsterdon

"The running of the Spiders" used to be a proud American tradition

#monsterdon

@paco If you shoot the cue ball, that counts as a scratch, and you will be penalized.

#monsterdon

day for night

never works

#monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion #ᄽºὁȍ ‿ őὀºᄿ

Love to the guy who has to call the National Guard on a 'Giant Spider Invasion'

"You're not going to believe this guys, but BELIEVE ME..."

#monsterdon

Spent a bit of money on car splosions.

#monsterdon

I love how they're using crowds of people to block the bottom of the giant spider so you can't see the chassis.

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

Everyone runs in the same direction.
#Monsterdon

Interesting how the panicking mob is always in the way of the spider's lower half #monsterdon

I’m not opposed to a rural mob of gun-toting monster killers, but I’m not sure the movie’s really earned it. #monsterdon

has every crashed vehicle exploded so far? #monsterdon

Skipper: "Hello operator? GET ME THE POLICE."

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Ooops! We found the Ford Pinto!

Go, space spider! kill them all!

#monsterdon

🕷️ GIANT TRIVIA INVASION 🕸️

The producers wanted larger spiders because they new Jaws was being made at the same time. The film crew then created their biggest monsters, using VW Beetles for the inside, driven backward, so the brake lights could be used as eyes.

Crew members stayed inside and manipulated the legs. It was hot work in the summer.

#TheGiantSpiderInvasion

#Monsterdon

“Mommy I want to go on the spider ride!”

PACKERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

#monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion #ᄽºὁȍ ‿ őὀºᄿ

Hard to get an exact id given the low resolution, but similar wide leather strap watches appear to have been part of the Mod style movement.

#monsterdon

Nice running of the extras!

#monsterdon

Eat them all my Spider brethren, eat all the colonisers!

#monsterdon

director couldn't have enough 'people eating repulsively' scenes, huh

#monsterdon

#monsterdon The wildly varying levels of focus sharpness in that lynch mob pep talk scene actually made me a little queasy. But in this amusement park scene some amazing camera operator managed to pull almost perfect focus all the way around a revolution of that chairs-on-chains ride!? What gives?!

edit: o god why the lingering soft-porn shot of raw chicken legs on the grill?? It's like the filmmakers just hate the audience!

Moar Butts!

#Monsterdon

The spiders took the weakest members of the herd first. #monsterdon

So the giant spider wrecked the entire house trying to get to her. Then it fucks off into the cannabis field rather than, like, eat her or anything? Was it just after a peek at her boobs? #monsterdon

Ugh that swing thing is making me sick to look at.

#monsterdon

This movie was really sponsored by Pepsi.

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

Don't know about y'all, but in Angry Mob of Drunk Yahoos vs. Giant Spider, my $ is on the spider

Any takers??

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon This guy reminds me of a 60 year old Fox Mulder

you know what they say

wooooooo Packers

#Monsterdon

Shout out to the little league team, I think that'll be the force that turns the tide against the spider. #Monsterdon

(shouts of approval) #monsterdon

@apLundell@octodon.social Only G7s and above, IIRC

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

DAMN! There's a *polka festival* here? Why the hell isn't this movie about that!?

#monsterdon

We're all WHITE MEN and we ALL HAVE GUNS, so we ALL KNOW WHAT TO DO

but THIS TIME

it's with SPIDERS

#monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion #ᄽºὁȍ ‿ őὀºᄿ

I hope they eat you all.

#monsterdon

Music to kill spiders or get laid to #monsterdon

POLKA FESTIVAL!??? #monsterdon #thegiantspiderinvasion

“Open doorway from Hell” #Monsterdon

#monsterdon bob carl jack peter

In fact everybody's wrinkles are showing up now that I look for it

Who did makeup

#monsterdon

Can any NASA employee call up and order a neutron bomb?
#monsterdon

I really am rooting for the spiders at this point.

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

Spider Disco!

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

#Monsterdon 🕷️ 🕸️ 🕷️ 🕸️ 🕷️ 🕸️ 🕷️ 🕸️ 😱 #ᄽºὁȍ ‿ őὀºᄿ

I wanna see giant walking in the field spider whenever I go back outside he's a great spider!

Aww! Big pretty roof spider just wants to give a big fuzzy hug.

#monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

Also, an obvious neutron initiator would be PuBe, which unfortunately fits with the movie's scuzzieness

#Monsterdon #GiantSpiderInvasion

I kind of think Drs. Langer and Vance weren't supposed to fall and roll down the hill like that, in the script.

#Monsterdon

How do you kill a monster like a spider? How do you grab a web and pull it down? #monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion

It's SO CRAZY that it JUST MIGHT WORK

#monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion #ᄽºὁȍ ‿ őὀºᄿ

Oh, I feel like a neutron shower myself, should freshen me up.

#monsterdon

"we can shower it with neutrons"
i love this movie.
#monsterdon

Stop mansplaining gravitational fields to Della Street, she's smarter than you. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion1975 *giant spiders grabs woman with a leg through the window*

"this could be us but you playin"

if you have opened a portal to a dimension that is so absolutely packed full with spiders that they spill out the hole the moment it opens then you might as well call it quits as a species because you are probably only getting like the bottom 1% of spiders so far you haven't even engaged with the coordinated response of the political or military systems of spider universe #monsterdon

I do not like this technobabble

#Monsterdon #GiantSpiderInvasion

She was just chased by a giant, interdimensional spider but they’ve got time to dress a small laceration on her hand. Their sense of urgency is ALL fucked up. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon A gizmo is a contraption. These are rocks. Geodes. Egg Cases. JFC, do we have to do all the heavy lifting around here? COME ON SPIDERS GET TO EATING THE CAST!

#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion1975 at least they let her put a top on for the spiders react shot

Wondering about the Spider Civilisation on the other end of that wormhole and how the geodes contain their shock troops....

#monsterdon

come on, spiders! take no prisoners! leave no survivors!

#monsterdon

"An open doorway from hell!"

Yeah, that's what the TV screen is right now. #Monsterdon

Jack and Jill went up the hill
To find a big ass spider....

#Monsterdon

Get 'em!

Get 'emmmmmm!!!

#monsterdon

Look, all I'm saying is we could have had an invasion of giant *jumping* spiders.

(CW photo of the cutest jumping spider I ever kept, "Madeleine").

#monsterdon

I love this giant spider's leisurely journey across the meadow #monsterdon

GO SPiDERS!!! #Monsterdon

DON'T BLAME ME, I VOTED FOR SNOWBEAST

#monsterdon

@strangefour you're looking at the Future my friend, the Future.... #monsterdon

Wrong doctor. It’s PEOPLE hunting season! #Monsterdon

that life-sized gigantic spider prop is a thing of beauty #monsterdon

poor rural people really do lead harder lives
