"he's just trying to get attention" about a guy trying to commit suicide by fire is a bad sign for how everyone here is going to treat PTSD
@apLundell Oh, I was thinking more like cesium?
Hope he breaks out in "Night Train to Mundo Fine"
He gets attention by howling #monsterdon
For a cult party, I'd expect more orgies and more psychedelics #monsterdon #thehowling
Even better, heβs sending her to the hippy folk music colony #Monsterdon https://ohai.social/@jeffron/115443507824243883
@steggy this baby can fit so many green gables in it #Monsterdon
"Oriental girl." #Monsterdon Ah.. the 80's.
The fiddling is pleasant.
#Monsterdon
@SnoopJ we've got like three, four notes on this baby #monsterdon
Please let Carradine be an elderly werewolf with false teeth
#Monsterdon #TheHowling
he's gonna pee on that rock wall and it's gonna be his next album cover
"I've felt parts of me I didn't even know existed." are you talking about the g-spot ma'am
OK I know I name-dropped Videodrome a while back but this dude is giving me psych-from-The Brood vibes
Plato's Colony. #Monsterdon
When is Diana Rigg going to appear?
<Jan voice> Marcia Marcia MARCIA!
And who could forget this classic song on the beach? #Monsterdon
Oh NO the horror of the late 70s auto-harps!
So she's a fae? How many monster types are in this retreat?
@apLundell i would have punched the banjo player already #monsterdon
"Gee, I hope these people aren't too weird." #Monsterdon
The music in these Colony scenes makes me think of Deadwood and what a weird vibe for an early 80s movie
@paco
marsha
marsha
marsha!
#MonsterdonπΊ π¨ π² π±
that's a truly awful sweater
This is what I imagine the Republican National Convention afterparty is like #Monsterdon
Oh the good doctor is here too.
"What's in it?" "The blood of my enemies ER I MEAN cherries" #monsterdon
@strangefour yes plz
Yep. Steed a woof. #Monsterdon #TheHowling
Marsha! Marsha! Marsha!
#Monsterdon #TheHowling πΊ
they just picked up a bunch of day actors and told them to do "whatever you like" didn't they?

A "retreat"? What is that exactly when the people are weirder than the ones your are trying to get away from...
#monsterdon
If Bubba Ho Tep is in this, I'm going to bed.
this is what people did at get-togethers before they had smartphones #monsterdon
It's a cult! Don't g...She's going.
#Monsterdon
This is a poor man's Sinners.
okay, points to him though, good response. "Excuse me." *vamoose!*
@littlemiao yeah we'll have to keep our eyes peeled
"...I'm the Gypsy, the Acid Queen, pay before we start"
#Monsterdon #TheHowling πΊ
"Who knows, maybe she's pregnant." Naw you ass she was attacked and watched a dude get blown in half. #Monsterdon
That's the Carradine I know. Starring off at nothing, falling asleep on set, mumbling lines. Only this time it's intentional.
#Monsterdon #TheHowling
We have Elvira at home
Well that's your problem right there. Ya' got Caradines. #Monsterdon #TheHowling1981
Why is she so goth #monsterdon #thehowling
#monsterdon This retreat would drive me absolutely insane.
"What's in it?" "Blood." "No, not what's it called, what's _in_ it?"
At least they have nice music at "The Colony"
"Oriental girl" wheee racism #monsterdon
OMG I watch you on TV all the time I'm not your greatest fan but you're OK! #Monsterdon
I could watch that guy chew steak forever... #Monsterdon
this gathering smells a bit....'Klan' if you get me...
"ah done heard you was a giant chicken!"
"no, no, a giant wolf creature"
"step down from a dinosaur, aint it?"
"I am but as the gods made me, sir."
the juicy stuff??? oh yeah, this is a cult.
#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981 folk music *and* red meat? sus
@Zerofactorial Teenagers! AmIright?! #Monsterdon
band is popping off tho, this place seems alright
Oh - it's that type of colony
80s mustaches are back on some people in 2025, and they look as awful as they ever have
HEY WAIT A MINUTE Pumpkinhead was last week! #monsterdon
getting some serious cousin eddie vibes from the guy in the brown leather coat and cowboy hat
#monsterdon
Yes, John Carradine looking even more older than dirt is a werewolf #Monsterdon
#monsterdon "Hey, I recognize you from the T V! Here have a hunk of meat!"
We've gone from #TheHowling to The Shining to JAWS in 3 cuts.
#monsterdon
Does nobody know the one girl's name?
#Monsterdon
@diazona You never know! But Iβm counting it. If it becomes a monster later onβ¦ π€·ββοΈ
That was a helluva long preamble to get us here..
I'm surprised this guy hasn't recommended a forced orgasm or some shit. #monsterdon
are they barbecuing a gigantic pizza rug over that fire???? #monsterdon
Pompous Doctor Accent is pretty spot on #Monsterdon
The doctor forgot to mention that everyone up there will be high AF. #Monsterdon
Had to look up and figure out where I'd seen one of the guys working for the News before.
Kevin McCarthy. He was the bad guy in Innerspace. Mystery solved. #monsterdon
Oh hey Carradine. You're full of energy this movie. That's rare.
#Monsterdon #TheHowling
Two hands on the wheel pal.
And by recharge your batteries he really means become the main course for some werewolves. #Monsterdon
and it contains John Carradine. see? see, i was right!
Ah yes, the Shining-like road scene. Perfect way to start a vacation!
#Monsterdon
Yep, they're weird #monsterdon
I want to go to a Zydeco retreat!
bitey bitey tiems
Grandpa is drunk again #Monsterdon
#monsterdon "I recommend a vacation at the resort I happen to own."
Sure, I'll trust that doctor.
#Monsterdon "maybe she's pregnant" incredible. it's a personal ambition of mine to see how often pregnancy horror shows up in stories about women in horror b/c i swear to god its like almost every time. that's besides the point
Karen,I'll be honest. I'm pretty high and like 17 minutes late and I don't know what I'm in for. #Monsterdon
Bowing out of this one for the uncomfy themes. Hope the rest of you enjoy it!
#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981
please say heβs not sending her to a hippie nudist colony #Monsterdon
There's a lot of light vs dark and blood, which makes this feels surprisingly vampire-adjacent
i love it when my therapist goes "you're totally fine, why don't you go live in my house for awhile" #monsterdon
At home, Karen is unwilling to have sex with her husband Mr Mustache, because trauma.
She goes back to work and is about to be a talking head, but then in the eye of the camera she says the porn film that she saw before and blanks out, unable to speak. So they cut to an editorial and take her out of the talking head booth.
Her boss is unsympathetic and suspects that she's pregnant because misogyny, then calls up a replacement news lady whose name he cannot remember.
Oh, I get it, this pop psychologist is a sex pest.
Ah yes, go up to the woods. Thatβs a totally safe place to go when youβre in a horror flick #Monsterdon
The worst part of being an 80s kid is half-recognising actors and they're so much younger than in their moviedb headshots I still can't name them
#MonsterdonπΊ π¨ π² π±
this psychologist is not a good psychologist
lol, love how she just drifts off while he's speaking...
