Is the Mears subplot necessary? We only have 71 minutes! #Monsterdon
Ah yes, must be a bit of the old wandering womb #monsterdon
βYour statements have a tinge of fantasyβ
Just say sheβs a woman and you canβt listen to her
#Monsterdon No survival instincts at all, these two.
@flowerpot Or she drives slow. She sure didn't go very far.
#monsterdon
She just hit one of those stones in the road. In front of another drawing. #Monsterdon
"AND THERE IT WAS"
i'm going to start talking like that
#Monsterdon
I'm getting Sandown Clown vibes.
"A horrible rubber suit!!!"
I don't see that as being particularly scream worthy. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Wild Conan appeared!
Judgy, aren't ya, lady?
"the lights flickered on and off"
"yes, yes, Lucas electrics, but what was unusual?"
She must have a good sense of direction, not to get lost in the moors. #MONSTERDON
#Monsterdon #ManFromPlanetX i think my grandmother had her hairstyle at that time
Damn, she runs fast.
#Monsterdon
Is that an oboe solo? #Monsterdon
awfully rude to discriminate against this guy just because he is low poly #monsterdon
She didn't notice the buzzing space ship looking thing from the road? Ho hum, just wandering around and ....
What the fuck?!
#Monsterdon
No worries, ma'am. A nice alien will come along and fix your tire right up. #monsterdon
I can't believe how she treats that man differently just because he's been attacked by an amateur paper mache artist.
#monsterdon
Whoever did the matte paintings probably did the costuming for the space being #monsterdon
I donβt mind that theyβre using models and matte paintings. I do mind that theyβre using models in a fairly realistic-ish style, but matte paintings in a loose expressionist style. #monsterdon
Candygram.
Finally our little Manlette X is here
#Monsterdon #ManFromPlanetX
20 mins in and we gots an alien
It looks kind of like Marvin the Martian's helmet.
What the fuck is that title font? Is Planet X a 1951 stereotype of a hillbilly outhouse?
all that Professor does is creep around....
I like how the alien does a flashlight-under-the-chin thing for extra drama.
"Ha! You should've seen that Earth girl run!"
Big Daddy Lawn Dart has been sighted, thanks to the party lights inside.
And here's the Man From Planet X!
Itβs Charles Dance! Or Max von Sydow? #monsterdon
This is the most chill, "I'm interacting with a
WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT THING WAIT #monsterdon
I know the papier mache work is rough but you didn't have to react like that β:floofSad:β The design team worked very hard on it!
#Monsterdon #TheManFromPlanetX
look lady, you go peepin' in people's windows, YOU GET WHAT YOU GET.
Look, Iβm sure itβs just someone with their nighttime moisturizing mask on
"...gooood moooooring"
Quit peeking in windows, and you won't be shocked by what you see. Duh.
good thing we smoked the building today!
Calm down, he's not looking for trouble, Planet X just wants their shaving cream atoms back!

#Monsterdon
Have you ever seen so many rocky cliffs out on the moors?
Uhh, alien looks more like βThe Guy From Planet FawXβ.
Hey it's a cabin with the light on... maybe I'll knock
Okay, I like the spaceship
With EYES.
Yes, go investigate the spacecraft by yourself. Way to have survival instincts.
CUE THE GLOWY ALIEN THING
MY GOD THAT SHADE OF GRAY IS UNLIKE ANYTHING ON THIS PLANET
#monsterdon
#Monsterdon She's pretty good at describing a thing that frightened her to death. Useful skill.
omg its mork from ork

I liked that tempura painted tree backdrop though it was swoopy
#Monsterdon #ManFromPlanetX These art installations are really useless out here.
It's a butt plug! That's what they mean by X! #monsterdon
standing a little close to those painted-on trees #Monsterdon
The blue halos around people are really distracting.
Oh hey! It's The Cone! Looks like they've had work done. #Monsterdon #TheManFromPlanetX
There is a big pointy metal squid thingy humming on the moor
Worst foley guys ever! #Monsterdon
this is Lowly Worm's Space Ship.
Oh no, I got a flat tire, I better abandon my car and walk home.
Really? Who does this?
A lonely walk on the moor and it's alien close encounter time. A bit of a Cthulhu look to the ship.
Now _that_ is a space lawn dart!
That flashing light is probably a local filling station. I'll just go see if they can fix my car...
The lawndarts are getting bigger every year out here.
#Monsterdon #ManFromPlanetX
If she becomes the new Puma Man, I'm going to bed.
Yep. Women always make shit up. Now, let's go back to talking about exploiting miraculous space metal. #Monsterdon
Remember when cars used to get flat tires all the time?
Right away itβs about controlling the capital. Hrmph. We can tell heβs a real bad guy #Monsterdon
I'm gonna paint my room just like these backdrops.
Him: "We can't have you getting upset."
I don't like this man. He's kind of creepy.
#Monsterdon
Tire's flat. To bad it's illegal for a woman to change it #monsterdon
Car broke down next to a dry ice farm. #Monsterdon #TheManFromPlanetX
The one stone she DIDN'T know
Modern audiences already turned this off. I was promised weirdness and at least one man from planet X.
Also, is this supposed to be courtship?
There is a glowing light in the fog
Wow, Lucas electrics and she had to turn the lights off herself? I'm impressed!
I too react to flashing lights on the moor by approaching them
#Monsterdon #TheManFromPlanetX
I love that when a car dies on film, it smokes out of every single pore. #monsterdon
last month I took an home electricity 101 workshop and the instructor talked *so much* about the history of every tool and material, now when I see the laboratory equipment in this movie I'm just thinking "I bet those wires are insulated by wax-coated cloth"
@bunnyhero they all kinda look like they're painted on with mascara too like what's the deal? #Monsterdon

John's suitcases are clearly completely empty
honestly the backdrops they're driving from are _hilarious_
Dadgummit a blow out. #Monsterdon #TheManFromPlanetX
I didnβt know Scottish fog looked so much like dry ice fog #Monsterdon
whew. lucky she was only going 1/2 mph there.
#Monsterdon
@pngwen O I C #monsterdon
It's like they filmed this on the backlot while two of the crew distracted the guards. I love it! #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon oh no is she about to get roadside assistance from the #ManFromPlanetX ?
all roads in Burry are dead ends, she keeps backing out of the frame
Knows the road....
Gets a flat...
Oh no, a rear projected flat tire.
#Monsterdon Ah, the days when people didn't know what high voltage live wires sounded like.
"I know every stone in the road being, you know, so stoned all the time."
Wow - now the fishing village has a street and actual buildings!
@socketwench It's an unobtainium-explodium alloy.
"Can't have you getting upset" yes, that's a good time to stroke her collar seductively, after she had to spend time around a creep. #monsterdon
Isn't this the village from Dracula? #Monsterdon
