yes let's keep the lady in utter shock in the middle of a crowd of gawkers and ask her shit. #monsterdon

Now THAT’S acting!

#Monsterdon

oh my gods that building is magnificent

and probably torn down but maybe not?

#monsterdon #TheHowling1981

That is the longest greenest house I've ever seen.
#Monsterdon #TheHowling

WHAT IN THE FUCKING SUBURBIA

where the hell near West LA is *this*

#monsterdon

FLUSH!!! #Monsterdon

That older cop was Kenneth Tobey who we saw getting tied up in a favorite scene of #monsterdon in The Thing From Another World. #TheHowling

Gee, I though the husband was going to slap her and a people would queue behind him, like "Airplane!"
#monsterdon

Bill, you're gonna have to shave. Maybe go for a buzz cut? #Monsterdon

This movie is a horror movie you said? #monsterdon #thehowling

the score is telling me it's the end of the movie, the scroll bar is telling me it's the first 15 minutes of the movie

#Monsterdon

@Taweret Somehow they missed her, though? Minus 5 accuracy points. #Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

I wonder whether these two use the same hairspray which they buy by the caseload? #monsterdon

@elroachy It was honestly scary looking at how many sequels are on tubi

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

@amyfou that's the free space

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Cop just shot right through a door. Jeeze. Do not like this kind of realism. Amazing he didn't shoot her.

this lady needs a therapist rn immediately

#monsterdon

Its worth a mention at this point, you know they made a sequle to this film…#Monsterdon

Ah, great, now she's going to have the smiley face as a PTSD trigger.

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

Bill. yes, indeed. Bill.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Wasn't expecting the nudity

this is not a Watchmen tie-in

despite the appearances

#TheHowling1981

@SnoopJ it's a shame to miss out on the classic ZOOOOOM

#Monsterdon

Well, we don't know either Karen, this has been some weird first 10 minutes, even for #monsterdon standards

@faoluin ACABABS (all cops are bastards and bad shots)
#monsterdon

I can't blame you, Karen. I don't remember either.

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

the dog men in this universe have mind control? pack it up its game over #monsterdon

of course Neil's a football chud, the stache totally gave it away
#monsterdon

I'm late but have been watching and skipping, and now I'm 4 minutes behind, and I don't want to skip ahead because I might miss something important.
#Monsterdon

It's saying the content is unavailable. :(
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon🐺 👨 🌲 😱

there's no box on my bingo card for casual misogyny

I don't know what happened in there either

I'm not sure I know what happened anywhere in this movie TBH

#Monsterdon

✅ Red light! An 80s monster movie classic. #Monsterdon

Is firing guns randomly into a dark room where a lady is screaming standard cop procedure? #Monsterdon

@paco Whaddya think this is 2025?! #StartsSobbing #Monsterdon

thank god, a #Monsterdon movie that understands how to do a close-up

A MYSTERIOUS ENCOUNTER

#monsterdon

So....this was what she'd intended to happen? #monsterdon

The police shooting whoever screams. that makes sense
#monsterdon

Shoot first, ask questions later. Classic.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Due to the murder (and the girl) everyone gets free tokens.

#monsterdon Shouldn'ta let the cops back there.

Quickdraw McGraw #monsterdon #thehowling

Dennis Dugan was the Unidentified Flying Oddball. Just to lighten things up.

#TheHowling1981 #Monsterdon

@Brookside Mebbie the woolwolf store? #Monsterdon

lol, GIGANTIC video camera...

#Monsterdon

Yeah just shoot away there champ. No chance you're gonna hit the vic. Geeze. #Monsterdon #TheHowling

Cops shooting though doors

#monsterdon

Unfortunately, we put the keystone cops on this one, and they got stuck in a well while your wife was murdered

#Monsterdon

shooting up the parlor is a *choice*, sirs.

#monsterdon

That's exactly what a porn shop was like, but slightly more creepy...I have been told.

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

I can't really watch a lot of the cuts to this porn.
#monsterdon

Dames don't like it when you call 'em broads!

#Monsterdon

oh yeah just shoot straight in there blindly where the lady screaming is

#monsterdon

I'm so far behind on #Monsterdon gahhh! Don't leave me!

I missed a bit having problems with too many wires and not enough coffee table space and tuned back in to what might have been porn or a rape scene?

Uh...
#Monsterdon

okay clearly if I hold out for anything like proper seduction I'm going to be disappointed

#Monsterdon

A few years later Dee Wallace would appear in my favorite teen rom/com of the 80's. Secret Admirer. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon #TheHowling1981

Hey it's the asshole TV owner from #UHF!

The Howling (1981) A mysterious presence falls over new york city that makes everyone howl like when someone stubs their toe in tom and jerry occasionally. No dog guys, no other symptoms really, and it doesn't play a very big role in the plot that is otherwise basically law and order SVU #monsterdon

I tuned in at an... interesting time...
#Monsterdon

okay, eddie, that's not creepy at all. #eugh

#monsterdon

Early 80s aesthetics was grimy AF #monsterdon #thehowling

@strangefour ah but it's West LA! Even said so on some of the signs. But yeah it could have been times square!

#monsterdon

@Taweret

It's hot in the city toniiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

#Monsterdon

@Taweret@timeloop.cafe Their bodies are trying to sweat out the tobacco, probably

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

It's my impression or Blacula is around?
#monsterdon

80s movie, got tiddies; early 80s, they're not castle-sized knockas

#monsterdon

Before he was the Doctor, he's the werewolf #Monsterdon

@apLundell all glory to the internet, huh

#Monsterdon

EW Trigger warning #monsterdon #thehowling

And we have nonconsensual toplessness #monsterdon

So reporter girl reaches a phone booth and calls her contact who I guess is the criminal they're trying to get, who we saw earlier asleep watching the guy selling his "Repression Bad" book. He asks if she is wearing what he asked, which is kind of a red flag unless you're coordinating outfits for an elaborate Voltron cosplay and don't want too many Corans.

After leaving the phone booth, the girl goes for a walk in an 80s porn store, which I guess is a way to fight crime.

#monsterdon

🙂

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Gee, Analog porn was a lot of effort.

So are the smilies the psycho's signature? Guess we're gonna find out.

#Monsterdon

oh jeebus

#monsterdon

@brooke I mean I wouldn't even be surprised at this point

#Monsterdon

satisfaction guaranteed. well, we are watching #monsterdon , but i guess we'll see.

Ascending diminished seventh chords! Spooky! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

NO TUBI I HAVE NO INTEREST IN BEING A THRILLIONAIRE 😠

#Monsterdon

@b VHS, Beta, or Hi-8?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

Bead curtain..

Wait is that a porn store?

#Monsterdon

Looked like Woody Allen there. #Monsterdon #TheHowling

A very skeevy establishment indeed #monsterdon

if only this West LA still existed

#monsterdon

@georgieboy
Remember videocassettes?

#monsterdon

the music is trying to break it to us gently that her ass is about to get howled #monsterdon

Well, this weird-scalated quickly #monsterdon

Aww dang it. We didn't get to hear Roger say anything in his perfect enunciation of every word.
#Monsterdon #Howling

Took me a minute to get things set up for Airplay but I'm a) confused and b) not sure I missed anything that would make me otherwise

#monsterdon

Meanwhile, in the Combat Zone

#Monsterdon

VIDE CASSETTES #monsterdon #thehowling
