Music for Old Invalids is what our kids think we listen to

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Mom sure is knocking that bottle back!

#monsterdon My goiter is coming back.. lines I was not expecting to hear..

Yeah I live in Skid Row.

...Yeah, in Popeye's old apartment

#Monsterdon

OK so we have an approximation of the One Stooge so far

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Maybe Seymore should be less sudden?

“Music for old Invalids” because they’re funny to laugh at… get it… get it #Monsterdon

That's my favorite spotify playlist
#monsterdon

@Wyatt_H_Knott “I don’t even like flowers!” #Monsterdon

@nev Putz #monsterdon

#Monsterdon "music for old invalids" ok this movie is not taking itself seriously :)

Mushnik's business budget

flowers 200
payroll 500
lighting 3000

help my flower shop is going under

#monsterdon

This movie def thinks it's a comedy

🙄

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I hope that Mushnik likes the fancy-schmancy plant. Or there might be trouble.

"out you go to Bodeo"

Is that something people said back then?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon "I'll eat them here" and here we go. He actually ate them. It was a gag on the set, nobody expected this.

#monsterdon Music for Old Invalids

Sickroom Serenade

dang

#Monsterdon 🥬 🏪 🧌 😱

everyone's face is a weirdly shaped gray shmoosh with dark bits for eyes

If we don't keep saying we're on Skit Row, we'll forget where we are.

#monsterdon

@wohali I think they want to give a vaudeville impression here to save time #monsterdon

#Monsterdon My goiter's back. Don't hear than much anymore.

Fancy Schmancy Plant!

#Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors

Ah, I forgot about the flower eater! #Monsterdon #TheLitttleShopOfHorrors

I think the ability to create new forms of life is perhaps a bigger talent than running a flower shop. Angry man needs to go on a holiday.

#Monsterdon

Some guy is in the shop eating carnations, and Seymour is played by Johnny Knoxville’s ancestor.

#Monsterdon

“I’ve eaten in flower shops all over the world” #monsterdon

@littlemiao Oh you can't say that and leave out how they taste

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon "I've eaten in flower shops all over the world" <- this isn't even the weirdest part of the sentence

Dick Miller so young it's freaky!

#Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors1960

he just wants to lick the mystery plant #Monsterdon

whatever this dude who's STILL EATING THE FLOWERS is making, it's not enough.

#monsterdon

Did anyone adjust the color and tint dials on the back of their television, and put on their 3D glasses?

#Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors

Dude is eating flowers like they're fries #monsterdon

Oh, wow.... The Colorized version is SO much better. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon "Shot in 2 days" is not a good thing.

You can really tell it with all these long shots.

this is the best Dick Miller performance ever

#monsterdon

I have no idea what’s going on.

#Monsterdon

@jonny Thank you!

(I obviously failed at racing the clock tonight)

#Monsterdon

He means it #monsterdon

@amyfou This sound is really horrible! So harsh and jarring!
#Monsterdon

We also already have more plot than 50% of the movies #Monsterdon https://wandering.shop/@Violinknitter/115047076570827364

#monsterdon, also the AI colorized version seems to be a LOT better picture-wise than I remembered from my last try watching this one. If this becomes the de-facto way to get somewhat decent approximate-print-quality movies, keep in mind you can always completely de-saturate it in VLC and have something semi-watchable

#Monsterdon

My goal here is to see how much of this enduring SF horror tale derives from this original film.

Seymour don’t look too bright. Measure fifteen times, cut to corsage #monsterdon

The flower eater feels like a John Waters character. #Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors

I think he should eat some monkshood #monsterdon

#monsterdon You have tried carnations, yes? They're actually quite yummy.

Nobody should ever go to that dentist

#Monsterdon

@littlemiao also, a florist #monsterdon

CHOMPY chomp
Carnations good
#Monsterdon

He's eating them? What in carnation?

#Monsterdon

Lots plants cheap. So cheap we can’t afford prepositions.

#Monsterdon

Hey Dick Miller! Wait have we had Dick Miller in a movie before? We have to have.
#Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors

Not just eating the flowers but SEASONING them.

Is it salt? is it pepper?

Is it hungarian paprika that will lead to queer dreams? (No)

#Monsterdon

lololol, i'll eat them here. this movie is already amazing.

#monsterdon

Mr. Mushnik is like the guy who owned the tire shop where I worked in high school. Seymour is cooler than I was though #Monsterdon

"were you calling for me?"

"No, I was calling John D Rockefeller"

Here's your sign.

#monsterdon #BillEngval

#Monsterdon

Sadistic dentist sighted.

Alice and Ted and Gretel and Hansel and Tasty Flowers with salt

#monsterdon

Uh so he did say what I thought he said

#Monsterdon

We took a quick look at the BW print and it was almost unwatchable. The colorization sucks but at least people have, you know, faces #monsterdon

We need more hand-drawn intro credits

#Monsterdon

I forgot this had an animated opening...
Well "animated"
#Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors

MOOSH. NICK. 😒

#Monsterdon

Bechdel pass! #monsterdon

I didn't know selling flowers was such a cutthroat business #monsterdon

@amyfou only if you’re using the subtitles

#monsterdon

This florist reminds me of Mel from Alice.

#Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors

back at Mushnik's!
#monsterdon

So they are on skid row i guess

#Monsterdon

I remember my dad telling me that when he was a kid the dentist had a hand cranked drill

#monsterdon

You can tell the dentist is cracked because he talks like one of those kooky beatniks. #Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors

#Monsterdon 🥬 🏪 🧌 😱

is it possible that watching the bad print also makes the sound fuzzier

When dentists offices had a floral budget. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon It is a musical! *Seymour singing Auld Lang Syne*

This movie has an anti-dentite taint....

#Monsterdon #Dentists

This scene makes my teeth hurt

#Monsterdon

So far the dialogue is better than 95% of the movies we watch #Monsterdon

This is how people get PTSD from the dentist.

#Monsterdon

wooof i am not hip to this dentist scene D: #monsterdon

#Monsterdon "Who am I to argue with science?"

Why did that phone's ring sound like a burp?

#Monsterdon
#LittleShopOfHorrors

@cobalt123 @_L1vY_ yesss i see blurry gray things on the screen and they're talking about plants

#Monsterdon 🥬 🏪 🧌 😱

That’s a big space for the number of flowers #Monsterdon

Imagine having a flower budget for the week.

#monsterdon

Time for "The Little Shop of Horrors" (1960) on #Monsterdon! 🧵

Jesus the subtitle track that came with my copy (off archive) is AWFUL and I suspect AI-generated. Like I have issues hearing sometimes (like in an autism way not a d/Deaf way afaik) but I can tell it DOESN'T match

#Monsterdon

allegedly they shot this in two days #monsterdon

awww, he's already looking annoyed! #Monsterdon

DICK MILLER!!

#Monsterdon

@lapis …you can make us

a MAAAAAA-AAAAA-AAA-AA-AAAAAAAAN

?

#monsterdon

... DIBBLER? #monsterdon

@amyfou @_L1vY_ are we there yet?
Asking for a friend
#Monsterdon

oh, to die is bad enough, to die in Arkansas starts to look like negligence...

#WrongMovie #monsterdon

“He got blown up”

“That’s nice” #Monsterdon

hey I hear singing!!!!!!!

#Monsterdon

Who said there wouldn't be songs? #Monsterdon

Who's on Fern? #monsterdon

The colorization is top notch, for varying definitions of "top" and "notch" #monsterdon

The colorisarion on Tubi is as dreadful as expected #monsterdon
