well that explains why all the zombies know his name. his wife is probably the leader #monsterdon

Are we going to flash forward now?

#Monsterdon

okay, like half an hour to go and we're back in the present. #monsterdon

Oh right. This was all a flashback. #monsterdon

see what he's saying is that only people with a stake in america should be able to

#monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

You know she's a zompire because her 60's bob is all in disarray. #Monsterdon

Stuck on the burn pit, and will be for a while. I think another movie would have him fight harder to save his living daughter, but his resignation sells the horror. Also this movie isn’t great with action.

#Monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

Seriously though, that's a really effective scene :D #Monsterdon

Is she saying Boebert? #Monsterdon

welp. guess we know why they burn 'em now. #monsterdon

The monkey's paw curls a finger #monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

Brains!?

#monsterdon
#LastManOnEarth

@apLundell You've got to warm up and also stretch periodically, definitely #monsterdon

Well THAT grave ain't gonna do anything. What a waste of all that digging!

#Monsterdon

"...i'm here... for that... hamburger Vince..." #Monsterdon

Oh man. Obviously burial didn’t work … #Monsterdon

Are we hallucinating this whole movie?

#Monsterdon

time to bury my wife so she becomes 100% a vampire #monsterdon

Oh god these whispers are creepy. The doorknob. Oh god. #Monsterdon

@amyfou

#Monsterdon

Price is the definition of suave.

@blogdiva They don't make house calls like that any more. #Monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

Welp. There goes the station wagon.

#Monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

Yup we'll just bury here in this studio backlot

#Monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

@brooke we thought she was a goner! #monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

Damn, parked on the wrong block! #monsterdon

and three years later, he was still wearing the same suit. #monsterdon

quarantining within a house is hard but you can do it and you can even bring a little levity to it to keep the person's spirit up. maintaining full contact with them and then wrapping them in a sheet and driving them around is way off the map of potential good responses #monsterdon

She's in the passenger seat of the car, covered in a sheet. Just like on their honeymoon... #monsterdon

Don't bury here there. The ground went sour years ago!

#monsterdon

@SnoopJ I was just telling my pals I miss old Twitter sometimes #monsterdon

Bullshit! Nobody digs a hole that deep by themselves, in the desert, without dying of dehydration. #Monsterdon

Wow Virg didn't last long after going blind it's as if adults get it more acutely than children or something #Monsterdon

You know he's a professional when he can dig a whole grave while keeping the suit on
#monsterdon

Aww home movies. Of a family that well... Families never do well in apocalyptic movies. Ahahahaha!
Damn Vincent has one of the great laughs. From maniacal to melancholy.
#Monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

"...So, wanna stop for a hamburger? Oh right, you're dead. ...Eh, still, though, right?" #Monsterdon

When you're serious about wanting to stay in the HOV lane.

#Monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

My mom, as he carries his dead wife off: "You're stinking up the place"

#monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

so now we're gonna bury her in secret, okay, that's not gonna go wrong at all. #monsterdon

OK that whispering is CREEPY...

#Monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

Somehow his relatively low emotion makes his straightness way less believable #monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

Boy this movie hits harder, after Covid 19 erupted #monsterdon

really not appreciating VP's attitude towards public health #monsterdon

Let Me In, the prequel. #monsterdon

@jonny And yet he is the only one who DOESN'T get sick?? #monsterdon

#Monsterdon music 🎶 Oh bury me not, on the lone prairie…” 🎵

@SnoopJ He's just wallowing in nostalgia #monsterdon

I know it's supposed to be grim and dramatic, but of course I can't hear "Mister, a lot of people's daughters are in there! Including my own!" without thinking of Wayne's World

#Monsterdon

"There are a lot of daughters in there. Clearance sale at the orphanage."

#monsterdon
#TheLastManOnEarth

I like it with the b
Zombpire

#monsterdon
#LastManOnEarth

sorry, virge, you didn't make it. #monsterdon

Oh jeez, that line, wow, dark.

#Monsterdon

Yeah sure that's proper use of NBC

#Monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

Impressively long flashback sequence, still going

#Monsterdon

It the tumblin' tumbleweeds

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Oh, THIS road trip is going NOWHERE GOOD.

K turns can kill people. Especially the unalive creatures of the night.
#Monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

Zompire! Awesome! #Monsterdon

Is the virus making it windy? #monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

Vincent sweeps his hair over to the side and demands to see the manager.

#monsterdon

"I'll take my daughter medium rare thanks" #monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

@Sorl it's the 60s. Frankly I'm surprised she didn't light her a cigarette in grand Monsterdon tradition

#Monsterdon

Is he chasing after the dead body of his daughter? What is he thinking? This makes no sense. #monsterdon

He knows All Doctors Are B*stards #monsterdon

High security clambake, huh #Monsterdon

Traditionally, you don’t burn the sides of the burn pit, just the shit at the bottom. #Monsterdon

@yogajedi true. I do enjoy collecting unearned titles. #Monsterdon @apLundell

#Monsterdon Wow. Make-out Point was different back then.

so when the child says, "Mommy, where are you?" don't turn away and sob, hold the girl's hand and say, "I'm here darling. I'm right here."

#Monsterdon

@apontious No no, Andrew, save yourself! Or watch #Monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth with us. There's a clickable movie on the Wikipedia page for it.

Srs time: the bit with the bawling woman whose body-bagged loved one is being hauled into a truck reminds me of an Ebola epidemic long ago where people were like "ahh, local people didn't trust the health workers because they were taking away their loved ones into closed off tents in the traditional colour of mourning and they always ended up dead." and then it didn't really matter much because everyone learned nothing #Monsterdon

@Configures @nev

So Zompires might be a better name.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon is now trending across Mastodon

#NatureASongOrPoem is now trending across Mastodon

@Zerofactorial Everything about this movie is above other #monsterdon movies.

We have to admit that's a hell of a station wagon
#monsterdon

Great...everyone is dead and I still have to clock in

#Monsterdon

For some more fun vampire science videos this one by thought potatoes is kind of cool

#Monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth #Vampire

Oh no! The only guy at the institute is another, younger Vincent Price!!

#Monsterdon

It's disorienting seeing so much good acting for #monsterdon

"Aww shit, they took my daughter to the flaming body pit"

#monsterdon

Honey, why didn't you say it was bring out your dead day?!?! #Monsterdon

Very admirable of Vincent Price to give his own stunt double a part opposite him. #Monsterdon

Apparently so

#Monsterdon

@nev They're just sick people. They talk with each other and Vincent Morgan, and they feel pain. [And can use tools!] They're human. That's why I keep putting "vampires" in quotes. #Monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

totally valid to not want the guy who said you were cr*zy for trying to protect yourself to come to your house during a pandemic, vincent price may be the protagonist but he's no hero #monsterdon

#Monsterdon “Is everyone in the world going to die before we find the answer?” Uh, well, Morgan, I have some good news, and some bad news…

Gee why all the hate for doctors no wonder this zompire plague is so bad #Monsterdon

Good thing I started watching The Decameron earlier today to get in the mood #monsterdon

nothing like driving to work and seeing a bunch of body-laden military vehicles pass you by. yeesh. #monsterdon

@berniethewordsmith That's what the vampire zombies are all saying!

#monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

I'm missing #Monsterdon tonight for reasons, but I like reading the toots and trying to piece the movie together in my mind.

I think Ben was a Teenage Werewolf

#Monsterdon

Oh a ferris wheel. One more stop VIncent. I wanna ride the ferris wheel.
#Monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

he is embarrassed upon seeing the wreath, he forgot to bring over a Garlicsmas gift
#Monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

So is paranoia one of the symptoms?

#monsterdon #TheLastManOnEarth

He's wearing a robe, he must be sick. #monsterdon #LastManOnEarth

#Monsterdon And now we see how “my theory is vampires” shows our hero that that the garlic thing works! I mean, props to him for experimental verification of his hypothesis….

People had an abundance of garlic back then, didn’t they? #Monsterdon

TIL Richard Matheson also wrote What Dreams May Come, Somewhere In Time, and Nightmare At 20,000 Feet, plus so many screen plays, seriously check out his IMDB.

#Monsterdon

ben the smart one in this flick. #monsterdon

Thank goodness he drives a hearse
