well that film was something. at least it sort of had Bowie to look at in it. Thanks @Taweret @ryan & the #Monsterdon squad

@TerryHancock "better" in some senses for sure, but very much not in others (IMO)

#Monsterdon

Time for some Wrong Frogs.
Wrong Vampires?
#Monsterdon #MrVampire

time to take meds, listen to "Bela Lugosi's Dead" again, and go to bed at a reasonable hour

#Monsterdon

There can be only One

Or something

That was pretty darn good!

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

@starkraving666 Oh. Well. I could probably chip in a few more seconds for a good cause. #Monsterdon #TheHunger

That was moody and stylish. Fun times. Thanks for the laughs, Monster people! #Monsterdon

good show! thanks for hosting that one, might have to add it to my collection of Halloween films

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

Pretty sure this Schubert was used in Barry Lyndon too

#monsterdon
#TheHunger

Okay, okay, style over substance, but WHAT STYLE!

Thanks @Taweret for a very—wait, Whitley Strieber the alien abduction guy???? alkdjflkdjf

—anyway, thanks @ryan / @miru for the stream, and all of you for being such good company!

#Monsterdon

This was actually quite breath taking in places. Definitely the most artistic movie we've done since I've been here! #Monsterdon

And, we're done. Fade to black. That's a wrap, even if the studio did muck about with the ending.

#Monsterdon #Hunger1983

Good time again at the old #monsterdon with Tony Scott film

@strangefour Because of that, "Blade" is the sequel to this movie.

#monsterdon #TheHunger

Okay, movie. You got me. 96:29 of my life, and I have no idea who or what I sacrificed it to. #Monsterdon #TheHunger

I think that needs a rewatch, alone, with a glass of Merlot and sunglasses. Thanks @Taweret 😎 #monsterdon

So she didn't die. So what happened?
I am very confused by this ending. But much vibes and hot people, beautiful cinematography and Bauhaus. I like this movie a lot!

Great one, everyone. Thanks @Taweret for organizing and happy Monstergiving to all Canadians

#monsterdon #TheHunger

Um... omg! #Monsterdon

Well that was a bad ending to an otherwise damn fine #monsterdon

Thanks for the selection @Taweret and everyone else for joining - especially @JoeWynne 's amazing trivia and @cherizilla 's bingo cards.

See y'all next week for another spooky time!

Bauhaus....disco group?!

#Monsterdon

Ok, so now that the movie is over they're going to explain what the heck that just was.

Right?

Right???

#Monsterdon

A credited appearance by Willem Dafoe. Goodnight, and sweet dreams. #monsterdon

Okay, I give up.

What the fuck just happened?

Is Sarah gonna start getting old real fast in a hundred years? What the hell was that shit with Miriam at the end?

What the fuck was that?

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

Stayed tuned for Mr Vampire on Miru!

#Monsterdon

OMG, Tubi wants to show me Cabaret next. If only I didn't have to go to work tomorrow morning! #Monsterdon

@Terencio yeah that's my read - OH I see the mechanics of it now

#monsterdon #TheHunger1983

I think that's the first time we've done a 6-hour long #Monsterdon

Every. Single. Thing. about this movie was too long. The screams. The slow mo. The dragged out scenes.

The only thing that shoudl've been longer is Bowie's role in it.

#monsterdon #TheHunger

@randy_s omg 😂

#Monsterdon

So there's just some scientists with vampire blood samples trying to stop aging across town now... Huh.
#Monsterdon #TheHunger

What is it about 80s movies and doves?

#Monsterdon

Railing kill.

#monsterdon #thehunger

I have no idea what I just watched. #Monsterdon

A fall from about 5 stories up seems like not enough to take down a real vampire. But then again having all of one's lifeforce drained out for 90 minutes by this movie may have weakened her somewhat. #Monsterdon #TheHunger

Another #Monsterdon is in the can!

Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!

Tonight's feature, #TheHunger, from 1983, put on its red shoes and drank the blues! We also had,

@starkraving666 like are we nuts, the WHOLE POINT was that she refused to accept the blood and killed herself, that's what set off the exes, right? I mean, what?

#monsterdon

So she's starting her own collection now? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🧛‍♂️ 💞 🧛‍♀️ 💞 🥧 🍩 😱

becoming a vampire apparently affects your earring selection

did tony scott make this at uni

#Monsterdon

I thought Sarah's hair was a different color #monsterdon

The ghosts that will haunt this place are gonna have some killer orgies.
#Monsterdon #TheHunger

#monsterdon I wonder if you have to declare undead lesbians as part of a distressed property disclosure

And crawling. On the planets face. Some insects called the human race... #Monsterdon #TheHunger

wait how is she alive???

#monsterdon

Dan Hedaya will always be Carla's abusive ex-husband in the Cheers spinoff to me.

#monsterdon

Not surprised at all that a vampire can lie so easily.

#Monsterdon

@paco no one here but us pigeons, oh and our lice.
#Monsterdon

Chekhov’s Hedaya.

#Monsterdon

What did kill her? #monsterdon #TheHunger

@hollie@social.coop But what a way to go!

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

#monsterdon I think you have to declare on the listing if your house is a murder house in NY

He's right, it was very sudden. But that's the way Deus ex Machina works. #Monsterdon

Lady...look. Relationship, *then* vampirism.

It's not that hard! You've had 2000 years!

#monsterdon #thehunger

We finally get our vampire dust. Such a fitting ending. #Monsterdon

@whiskeysailor

But Woo is *so* much more restrained with them

#MOnsterdon

@davesdogmaggie we know major Toms a junkie! #tooSoon? #Monsterdon

da copper

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon total eclipse of the heart was totally filmed on the same set as soon as the movie wrapped

Oh no, I missed a plot point because I went searching for a video and it turns out to be Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart. Why did Sarah end up in the belfry of past lovers?

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

You've got red on you!

#Monsterdon
#TheHunger

she smashed into bits of overbaked biscuit for why?
#Monsterdon

I am NEVER going to be able to see that scene with Marion and the mummies in Raiders of the Lost Ark quite the same way again.

#Monsterdon

Once upon a time, I was falling in love
Now I'm only falling apart
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

#monsterdon #TheHunger1983

Turns out “aesthetic vampire” is definitely not my preferred aesthetic

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🧛‍♂️ 💞 🧛‍♀️ 💞 🥧 🍩 😱

Pretty impressive that it took all the way from ancient Egypt to 1980s NYC for all this to happen. She had quite a run.

Hello?

#Monsterdon

I mean a couple dozen padlocks from the hardware store for those coffins would have avoided all this. #Monsterdon #TheHunger

So that's how to kill a vampire, thown them from a high place?
Or was it the sun?
#monsterdon

@cherizilla 😂

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

I guess the exes were too angry to die, but now that's resolved so...

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

Does he have to watch?

#Monsterdon
#TheHunger

#monsterdon so it turns out doves crying sound exactly like pidgeons crying #theHunger1983

Ew, his blood probably tastes like chewing gum #monsterdon

I guess her stronger blood is weak to slip and fall accidents?
#Monsterdon #TheHunger

#Monsterdon I love how much sense this movie makes.

Only Murders In the Building

#Monsterdon

"...so what happened to the previous owners?"
"Ummm ... they moved to Switzerland?"

#Monsterdon #TheHunger

the spell be broken, 'k, back to bed everyone

#Monsterdon

these end effects are great

#Monsterdon

So it's one of those "kill the master vampire" situations then. But still, this didn't make any sense #monsterdon #TheHunger

Unlike other vampires, she has a reflection but no body.

#Monsterdon #TheHunger

well it looks like they DO live forever

#Monsterdon

John Woo saw this and took a big lesson: Include Pigeons
#monsterdon

Ashes, ashes…

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

These coffins are RESTLESS!

@wohali

Excuse me, I've got some.... spring cleaning to do

#Monsterdon

@moira why pigeons just why 🤦 #monsterdon

so what's the moral then
#monsterdon

Somebody’s about to be dinner #monsterdon #TheHunger

How many times did she fall down those stairs?

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

I don't know if this is all in her head or actually happening and I suspect it doesn't really matter. All that matters is if the makeup person got an Oscar.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🧛‍♂️ 💞 🧛‍♀️ 💞 🥧 🍩 😱

wait can't she turn into a bat tho?

The screaming is freaking my dogs out now.

#Monsterdon

y'know the stakes here really aren't that great

#monsterdon #TheHunger1983

So John basically led a jailbreak from the attic...
#monsterdon

#monsterdon shoulda thought about that before you left all your leftovers together to form a revenge posse

@Taweret they need group therapy clearly
#monsterdon

AAAAAAAAAAAAA #monsterdon #thehunger1983

Holy crap, is this some kinda don't be promiscuous morality play?

#Monsterdon #TheHunger1983

#Monsterdon

This audio is nuts!
