That movie was... something else? Best I can do rn. Thanks to @Taweret as always and good night #Monsterdon 🤘

@_L1vY_
Got shot.

Got acid thrown on him.

Then he got shot again to death, when he thought he was an immortal killer. 😖

#Monsterdon #TheHowling

This concludes my thread for the Howling, a movie with multiple murders and multiple awooos!

Thanks to all who participated and to @Taweret for hosting!

until next time... um... remember to buy silver bullets at the bookstore I guess. also if you get bit by a werewolf remember to transform on live TV but also try not to get shot afterwards.

#monsterdon

this procession coulda happened during the opening titles. just sayin.

#monsterdon #DoubleFeature #WrongHowling

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

stay tuned for the post credits scene! it sets up the WCU sequels (werewolf cinematic universe)

Aww Karen turned into a kinda cute were-puppy on LIVE TV!

Pity she had to be put down like that

THE END

Inside of us areally are 2 wolves!

Or...like a wolf and a Yorkshire Terrier or something I dunno

Thanks for a howling good #Monsterdon @Taweret !

We get a coda in a dive bar where the men in attendance think the werewolf thing on a live news broadcast was fake and also special effects. Then the camera pans and we see that the Goth Wife from before is there, so the werewolves survive.

Then credits. The credits are a scene of hamburgers being grilled set to yet another music genre... some jazzy soft rock background music.

#monsterdon

A werewolf movie with no full moon, no wonder no one likes this movie!

#Monsterdon #TheHowling #TheHowling1981

Wolf out. On live tv. Awesome. #monsterdon

"In the end, everyone was too drunk to think it was real"

#Monsterdon

Back in civilization, Karen is preparing for a news broadcast, where the audience Knows that she will transform in a Cool Werewolf.

She better transform into a cool werewolf. If not, I will be disappoint.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

I'm still trying to figure out how a group of super-strong werewolves couldn't break out of a shitty barn.

Someone please recut this to a fun 30 minutes. #monsterdon #TheHowling

I’m waiting for the twist the werewolf was actually Matthew McConney this ENTIRE time!!! #Monsterdon

welp, Karen's got bit, so I guess she's a wolf-lady now

#Monsterdon

lol, of course the car explodes...

#Monsterdon

“Not all of us have got enough money for a Wankel rotary engine, you know, some of us have gotta work for a living.”

@amyfou They have the opposite of plot armor

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Seems like a rather long time for a transformation. You could read a book chapter waiting for the rice krispies to resolve.

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

Ah-ha, it was the one-armed man!

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

Back in the 1980s, you could actually drive on LA highways faster than 5 mph.

#Monsterdon

here's the part where the villains bark their lines at each other, I guess

#Monsterdon

oh darn i guess they were luring people in specifically to eat them

#monsterdon

@Taweret the classic question that we must also ask of catgirls and inu yasha. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

REMEMBER ME, EDDIE?? *turns into a toon*

#monsterdon Ok, I appreciate the effort to do a werewolf transition that isn't just a couple of cross-fades.

But I'm afraid it really just exposes how silly the concept is, and doesn't make it scary.

Also, this is taking forever.

"....still transforming.....hold on...."

#Monsterdon

"Just stand there while my head bubbles ok, it won't take long....."

#Monsterdon

Dick Miller will sort you out for weird guns....silver bullets, 40 mw plasma rifles....

#Monsterdon

Meanwhile, back in the relationship drama. #Monsterdon

There's knives on the other end of those sticks, lady. #Monsterdon

@paco lol, it's been an awful choice of mental health spa #Monsterdon

I had an itch and used a pitchfork to scratch it
#monsterdon

@msh

This isn't simply a werewolf colony... it's a multi-level marketing retreat.

Buy 8 cases of Wolf Chili and get a free tube of Glister toothpaste!

#Monsterdon

While reporter girl levels up her photography game, she is ambushed by a Werewolf. She tries rolling out the window but then the werewolf catches her and she hides in a something? She finds an axe and uses it to cut the wolf's hand/paw off, causing it to... um... inflate and then deflate. And then inflate again. Then it turns into a human arm. This freaks her out so she leaves.

#monsterdon

Wow, werewolfs got surprisingly soft arms. #Monsterdon

that was a fortunate axe

#Monsterdon

@SnoopJ #monsterdon

it's an Acid Rave chill-out room

Another smiley face button? The Comedian has been here... 35 minutes ago.
#Monsterdon #TheHowling

@catzilla #monsterdon

and drink Wolf Cola with it

@kcarr2015 SLOW is a fair cop for this film so far.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Werewolves can change into dogs whenever they want to. They mostly change for sex.

Yes, I think I've heard of this on Tumblr.

honestly gonna be surprised if this movie doesn't end up with a werewolf orgy before the end #monsterdon

Bill, why do you smell like wet dog? #Monsterdon

During the moonlit makeout scene, Goth Wife pulls of Mr. Stache's bandage and drinks his blood. Then they both grow vampire/worlf fangs (while otherwise looking normal) and continue making out, just also hissing and howling at each other.

Inside his psychology lab, psychology guy hears this but doesn't seem to know what it means, so he stands there confused.

Then Mr Stache and Goth Wife continue transforming into more wolflike forms while doing an off camera werewolf sex.

#monsterdon

@paco We'll fix it in post

.... NOT!
#monsterdon

lol, I hate drool in porn....

#Monsterdon

"lick my wound....urrrghhhh"

#Monsterdon

are there two couples that look exactly the same, one where the man has a moustache and one where the man does not have a moustache? #monsterdon

80's kids remember how that guy was the only doctor, for everything

#Monsterdon

Is everybody in this station fucking each other?

#Monsterdon

The good ol' rabies vaccine :x #Monsterdon

Fakes a werewolf attack to distract from why you were in that woman's lair in the first place...

#Monsterdon

The therapeutic power of dolly zoom

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981

Dick Miller? A bookstore? A raven? Creepy etchings? I'm in monster movie heaven.

  🐺🩸 THE TRIVIALING 🩸🐺

Dick Miller appears in this film as "Walter Paisley" in the bookstore. He first played a character with same name in Roger Corman's Bucket of Blood (1959). He played Walter Paisley also in

🎃Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983)
🎃Chopping Mall (1986)
🎃Night of the Creeps (1986)
🎃Shake, Rattle and Rock! (1994)
🎃The Haunted World of El Superbeasto (2009) and
🎃Hanukkah (2019)

That's 60 years of Walter Paisley under different directors.

#TheHowling1981

YAYYY! It's that guy whose name I forget every time!

#Monsterdon

I wish Erle was Dick Miller

#Monsterdon

Big Hair spotted!

#monsterdon

okay that's a clear pass, i mean, two named women talking about therapy

#monsterdon #TheHowling1981

Doesn't know what cows sound like....is she from Space? Is she a Belter? She's handling the gravity well...

#Monsterdon

The colony people sleep in a wooden longhouse. Karen wakes up after dreaming about what she almost remembers seeing in the booth, which she relates to the face of the old man she saw almost jump in the fire before. She hears some howling in the woods but Mr Mustache assures her that it is just a dog.

Unable to sleep, she makes a fire then putters around outside, discovering a ribbon of something on the trees. Then she hears more howling. A spooky guy in the woods watches her.

#monsterdon

We have now reached the Bartok portion of tonight's score. #Monsterdon

Ma'am I appreciate you're an Intrepid Reporter but this may be the stupidest course of action a person in your position could possibly take. #Monsterdon

Ah, the mental health awareness of 1981

....we knew more about werewolves tbh

#Monsterdon

:ms_awoo: :awoo:

#monsterdon

@paco Why is there always a "creepy girl" at the beach in LA movie themes?
#monsterdon

Find you a man in a Sabertooth coat that looks at you like you purdy

#Monsterdon

lol, all the dudes given the hot, sex crazed lady a break....

#Monsterdon

"I'm looking for my wife."

Me too, Bill. #Monsterdon

Well, the colony seems friendly!

#Monsterdon #TheHowling #TheHowling1981

Because the sex trauma and or werewolf trauma is affecting her, Karen goes to see the TV psychologist, who prescribes a trip to his camp in the woods to cure his amnesia. The woods probably has werewolves in it.

Anyway, she is going there with Mr. Mustache, who we learn owns gyms. When they get there, it is an old time communal hoe-down attended by computer touchers, cowboys and people who have seen her on TV. This place is called "The Colony".

#monsterdon

I'm using that doggy snarl to mark Teeth on my bingo card. I think it counts!

#Monsterdon #TheHowling #TheHowling1981

Dude, that's a windey road. Two hands on the wheel. #monsterdon

#monsterdon So many awesome bit-players in this movie. It's kinda comforting :)

From full goon, to full moon. Our report tonight looks at the link between lechery and lycanthropy.

#Monsterdon

Call the cops? And tell them you found some dude with a bunch of werewolf drawings? #monsterdon

“The beast in all of Us” brings out the best 😜#Monsterdon

Okay the line about the Marquis de Sade coloring book was genuinely funny ^^ #Monsterdon

CPTSD is a bitch, everyone. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

#monsterdon

why is everyone so sweaty

#Monsterdon

@_L1vY_ #monsterdon

if you develop an interest in uBlock Origin, that won't be a problem...

#Monsterdon #TheHowling1981 so is the premise of this film that masturbators get such hairy palms that they become werewolves?

We're joining #monsterdon a few minutes late tonight. Likely more watching than posting from us tonight.

"I'm Robert Stack." #Monsterdon

Wow, philosophicops. #Monsterdon

Slim Pickens sighted!

#Monsterdon #TheHowling #TheHowling1981

Slim Pickens!

Hope he rides an atom bomb!

#Monsterdon

@steggy
Bruh, I think WE are the hamburger, bruh. 😬

#Monsterdon #TheHowling

@Configures @moira omg definitely looking that up

#Monsterdon

@_L1vY_

Thanks, Trump!

#Monsterdon

@_L1vY_ To be fair it was pretty sudden, not much of a denouement

#Monsterdon

@saucerlost horny when present, is always a pro and a con. #monsterdon

🦖#MONSTERDON Goodbye!

❤️ Thank you @Taweret for hosting this furry feature!

🅱️ and thanks @cherizilla for the Bingo card! My favorite was "Feeling Wild, Feeling Strong". That had to be the colony brochure tagline!

🦖 And to all the members of the Real Time Film Analysis Squad: Tremendous fun! I missed too many good posts and will get to them later. Kind of a lagniappe after the Loup-garou.

lycanthropy is just a plot by Big Silver to sell more weird bullets

#monsterdon #TheHowling1981

lycanthropy is just a plot by Big Electrolysis to sell more electricity needles

#monsterdon #TheHowling1981

@moira I have seen some werewolf movies I liked but my taste in movies is perhaps somewhat erratic #monsterdon

So, she said “I’m gonna turn into a really cute doggo on camera and THAT’S when I want you to blow my brains out” and dude was like “k, nbd.”

This movie just gives and gives and then gives some more.

#monsterdon

@gnomon There was nothing too slow that they couldn't make room for it in this film. Even watching a burger fry.
