Poor Mrs Blaylock, couldn't afford her electric bill
"I don't know why I'm here"
I'm not aware that I'm in a vampire movie yet, you see. #Monsterdon
Wait, is this partly a retelling of Bluebeard?
My Switzerland Husband.
David Bowie is now The Six Flags guy
Woo, that is some good, creepy makeup. #Monsterdon
Bowie turning into Anthony Head as he ages. #Monsterdon
Kid you are gonna get et. #Monsterdon
"We've shown there is a clock! That it can be tampered with!"
If you can survive the Timex people, yeah. #Monsterdon
*stares at Polaroid, which depicts the back cover of βLodgerβ*
Yes, aging sneaks up on you. This is known.
This is how Europeans live, skulking around haunted mansions having very quiet arguments with life partners...
How many pallet loads of cigarettes have they gone through at this point?
Talking about slowing down aging and then lighting a cigarette is a choice.
NICE sunglasses, dude. #Monsterdon
David Bowie is bored of life. Even the best of Tom and Jerry gives him no joy.
#Monsterdon #TheHunger
pardon me, lily belle, there's an extraordinarily hot woman who wants to speak to me right now, i'm sure you understand.
Look, all I'm saying is that if we lived for a few hundred years we'd actually get some time to read all those books we've been meaning to
#monsterdon Not now, I'm watching the monkey show!
Yeah, being a vampire is great at night, but you ever try being a goth denizen of the darkness at 7:30 am on a Sunday? Doesn't scan :/ #Monsterdon
@strangefour David your lack of knowledge of Bauhaus is embarrassing me in front of the cool kids.
Patrick Nagel: The Movie
Is this what being high at a party with David Bowie was like? The sound track sounds what a throbbing headache feels like. Including the angry cat noises.. . . Coming from a monkey?
#Monsterdon #TheHunger
OOPS that building was in an episode of David Suchet's Poirot :D :D :D #Monsterdon
@kshernandez @Taweret Me neither. I have no idea what I will be watching, and I'm going to try to keep it that way to go in cold.
#Monsterdon
π¦#MONSTERDON Goodbye!
β€οΈ Thank you @Taweret for hosting this tasty treat!
π ±οΈ and thanks @cherizilla for the Bingo card! My favorite was "Vampire makes good point". Subtle.
π¦And to all the members of the Real Time Film Analysis Squad: We'll be trying to make sense out of some of these scenes for a while. Please post if you possibly figure something out.
I might hang for double feature a while.
Wait, what? Did Sarah stab herself?
Now she's going into the Attic of Failures?
Thatβs a hour and a half of my long weekend Iβm not getting back.
#monsterdon
@LuluHelle At least one more interval of boobs, and more smoking, but basically yes
Did Tubi autoplay "Cabaret" after this for anyone else?
@Taweret oooh I missed the line about "Forever? No."
lol, legit thought "Monkey Effects" was someone's name!
oh wow, now she's in the coffin. too bad for you, Miriam.
The end sneaks up on you. An underrated one to me. Thanks #monsterdon ers. Take care. See ya soon.
"Take your time."
I'm just gonna stand here and wait to get eaten. #Monsterdon
@hollie I mean, I'm thinking of nothing but the pigeons at this point
Doves like holy shit dude, this hotel has gone to HELL #Monsterdon
MOAR PIGEONS!
Hmph. Judgmental exes :/ #Monsterdon
Sorry, just woke up - is the film over yet?
Well, I've heard these kinds of relationships can be volatile. Sorry, ma'am. #Monsterdon
Very......erotic #monsterdon
@wohali i think itβs have gay sex and you could get a mysterious blood borne disease that will kill you (the AIDS metaphor hit harder in the 80βs) #monsterdon
Reverse vampire:
π§ is only visible in a mirror
π§ invites you in
π§ gives you their blood
20 minutes more and no reason to believe there will be any substantial change in this movie's timbre
we won't have Susan Sarandon in a box by the end of it, I think, but I truly do not know where else this could be headed.
I only know that the path there will be a meandering one
#Monsterdon
And the most beautiful man blessed us with the most beautiful mug shot
it's the HR vampire sandwich, a guide for new employees in the vampire factory
turning into a bathaving your soul stolen from you and bound to the night for eternityturning into a batthis is one of the least New York movies set in New York that I've seen
I don't have an opinion about that, it just seems remarkable how little the city matters to the plot in any way
Surprisingly this movie ends with the classic "Rocket Launcher Solution" so fond of Monsterdon movies
This guy knows EXACTLY what's going on.
She wasn't sending back the clams earlier....
Jeez, the bite already Miriam? You move fast lately, huh. #Monsterdon
Probably wanna ask what happened to the last one, there, Susan.
oh. no. i'm sure i didn't mean to spill this wine that i literally just spit out of my mouth for no reason other than to get my shirt dirty. quelle surprise!
mr blaylock has not, in fact, gone to Switzerland.
A shipping crate? She's sending him to Abu Dhabi? #Monsterdon
Miriam has THE STRENGTH OF A VAMPIRE which is very helpful for moving a near-corpse
...So this species of vampire turns into a Return of the Living Dead-style vampire, immortal and unkillable but still decayed? #Monsterdon
"AMTA for ditching my boyfriend and him rapidly age before my eyes?"
surely he will get the squirty bottle for doing that?
BAD john not in the house SQUIRT
#Monsterdon
Whoa, Bowie's getting older by the secondβ¦
Lots of Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes in a short time.
Every time I go to bathroom to take off my shirtβ¦ thereβs always a 125-year-old man watching me get undressed
Dude's literally just lost in the hospital. #Monsterdon
You're drooling, Bowie. #Monsterdon
oh, also: coffee was ALMOST served
Neat! Claymation monkey zombie! #Monsterdon
#monsterdon If I saw a big glass ash tray right on the arm of the couch, I'd assume smoking was permitted.
"Oh don't worry about him, he's British...."
["top men" inflection] I'm a young man
Oh, this is a Whitley Strieber joint. I should've known. #Monsterdon
Quaaludes, yeah, this is the 1980s all right #Monsterdon
They're not going to appear in any of the polaroids, right? #Monsterdon
The vibes of this movie feel like a place I want to visit but definitely not live in. Not at my age anyway. maybe decades ago.
#Monsterdon #TheHunger
OK, this is way more than normal 80s-tiddies. So far I'm not sure if there's a plot though.
@trixter @strangefour Bauhaus are from my home town #Monsterdon
Well, that intro was a bit of an editing mess.
#monsterdon
Looks like Tina still rules Bartertown. #Monsterdon
the instability of the tempo of these drums is very unsettling
Morpheus, stop taunting the zoo animals. #Monsterdon
He looks like me during high school gym class
@diazona #monsterdon #MrVampire #wrongHunger
dunno, I don't think those vamps are fast as lightning.
(though it is a little bit frightening...)
wait, why isn't this guy hopping?
looks like THIS vampire's dancing Thriller!
My incense is bigger than your incense.
#Monsterdon
wat does Miss Ting-Ting do for a living again?
@paco @TerryHancock Hey vampires gotta survive capitalism somehow
... Well, I've at least got to watch Liza Minelli's core workout
A lot of people are surprised when they find out whitley strieber wrote horror novels before he became a ufologist
And a lot of people arenβt surprised
they were only kept at bay by their tuition bills taped to their foreheads.
wow, grad school is TOUGH in ancient China
@skatem Yes it was.
#monsterdon
at least the beginning of the movie was horny, though
well, I would certainly have turned that off if I'd watched it alone, so I'm glad to have gone through it with everybody
@hollie she won't be the first, nor will she be the last #Monsterdon
YAYY BARBICAN!
My favourite building in the London, she's living the life!
So, vampires can't die, except from things that kill ordinary humans? Stab in the throat, fall from a height, presumably a runaway Chevy Nova
