#monsterdon Amazingly clear communication to these undersea divers.

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Ya know, we might have been exposed to a lot of radiation.. maybe we should spray ourselves with DDT to counteract it..

THE 50's

@Lazarou This movie will have you covered

#Monsterdon

They're doing this diving on the promise of more coffee if they do. I get that. #Monsterdon

Oh christ you and your rock formations give it a rest.

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

"i'd rather not conjecture. i barely knew 'er!"

#monsterdon

Wow, that sailor must've really had some blue balls prior to that.

#monsterdon #TheBeastWhoChallengedTheWorld

2 snacks on their way down to the monster.
#Monsterdon

At least Jody died doing what she loved...
... being an easy gad-a-bout.

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Well, at least they found their missing se(a)men. #Monsterdon

there better be a giant ladybug later

#monsterdon

Ectoplasm! #Monsterdon

Hoo boy, wetsuits have sure come a long way

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Unless you are married if you have sex you will die. 1956. #monsterdon

They’re investigating the bottom of the sea. That could take a while. #monsterdon

ewww morty secretions

#monsterdon

More radioactive monster spunk!

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld1957

The Sheriffs go to turn off another beach, and talk to the beach owner, who is a (non-secretary) girl. After a verbal thrashing, her daughter leaves to do a romantic swimming with a random boy on the closed beach, so they can kiss and then get eaten by a monster together.

#monsterdon

The cap belongs to the US government, Junior...

#monsterdon

MONSTER CHOMP and CHOMP PART DEUX

whomst could have foreseen that the character named "Mort" would so quickly be made to face his own Mort-ality

#monsterdon

I wonder if Spielberg saw this

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon 3-2-1, AND HERE COMES RICK! Eh Morty!

yeah I found the cap on that shriveled corpse over there
#Monsterdon

did we know Mort well enough for him to count as "annoying person eaten"?

#monsterdon

MORTY! I'M A PICKLE! #Monsterdon

sorry mort, you're going to meet Death. again.

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

Mort est morte.

#Monsterdon

"You haven't got a chance, you're just a dumb girl!"

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

Mom washes her hair with lye soap
#Monsterdon

Morty. He’s named for death. #Monsterdon

Wubba lubba dub dub, Mr meeseeks and so forth

#monsterdon

Who are you going out with?

Morty

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChangedTheWorld1957 #MonsterMiru

...The guy's name is Mort. Now THAT'S a little on the nose. You wanna start the countdown to his death or should I? #Monsterdon

Bechdel test: solidly failed

#monsterdon

@hollie They didn't give proper units, but it sounds like it's more in "interesting" than dangerous

#Monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

Jody is far too attractive to date a guy named Morty.

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

"That's odd: that sample is from the same water. Why the difference in radioactivity?"

Could science have been... WRONG‽

#monsterdon

“I’d like to talk to you about your beach.”

Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

#Monsterdon

These days those bars you clamp things to in the lab would be at the back of a fume hood, they are great.

Also those are not the units you measure radiation with XD

#Monsterdon

Oh Salton Sea, will you never tire of taunting us with your unfathomable secrets?!?

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

#monsterdon We've got the morgue locker that doesn't leak fluid, and the one that does. Want the non-soggy one, or the off-pink soggy one?

@ProcessParsnip

No, it is a Czech Test, the latest thing from Europe.

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

@hollie Not in the 50s

#Monsterdon

How on earth are those separatory funnels being supported on that lattice?!?! I don't see any rings, but maybe it's the angle?

#Monsterdon

@Terencio @cd0 Yeah I believe it's a fairly well-known phrase in the US (albeit maybe a bit past its prime)

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

“Speed up your science, scientist!”

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I don't know about radioactive but as a Gen-X all I know is going in the Salton Sea is super inadvisable

while typing: Is this the first use of the sandwich in the morgue gag/trope?

A "check test", can you be more specific?
#Monsterdon

“You gonna close down the beaches on your own authority?”

#Monsterdon

wait the cum is radioactive now? oof
#monsterdon

@cd0 #monsterdon

idk... I've heard "read the riot act" in the US too....

@YsengrinWolf """"ham""""

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon
Man, strokes have changed!

@apLundell But is it a Chekov's Fire Axe?

#monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #ChallengedTheWorld1957

We can rule out anger based on the scientific principle of Plot Relevance

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

“You’re looking at a piece of skin.”

Gross.

#Monsterdon

Dracula has a new underwater lair! #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #Monsterdon

You keep lunch in the morgue?

#Monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

WE'VE GOT TO CLOSE THE B- oh htey actually are closing the beaches huh #Monsterdon

I bet Johnson survived. The creature's attack was but a scratch!

#Monsterdon #TheCreatureThatChallengedTheWorld

Puncture wounds? Exsanguination?! AQUAVAMPIRES

#monsterdon

Ah medical examiner humor.

They're totally like that too.
#monsterdon

"Okay, now that I talked to a woman, I'm going to have a post-coital pipe smoke. Alone. Cab fare's on the nightstand." #Monsterdon

You know, I've only ever seen one person smoke a pipe in real life

#Monsterdon

@ottaross The little girl IS the monster to that ladybug.

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

did he murder that ladybug #monsterdon He's the real monster

Probably Chekov's Ladybug

#Monsterdon

The pipe is in the mouth ... the matchbox is out and open ... AND THE PIPE IS LIT! We have smoking!

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld1957

Captain Beaver gnawing his paw off at their sloppy OpSec. They're hot to trot whereby trot I mean commit acts of treasonous disclosure to enemies of their nation. #Monsterdon

Bechdel test passed thanks to a bunny rabbit.
#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

"marine secretion"

#Monsterdon

"Young lady you're not to discuss that with ANYONE."

"Well gee wilickers, mister, I'm only an adult human being working on a military base, I've never kept a secret before!"

🙄
#Monsterdon

"I wanna see the rabbits, George".

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

A simple marine secretion, okay
#Monsterdon

“People are always jumping to wild conclusions regarding nuclear reactions” #Monsterdon

lets see if this guy gets over his "science fiction" skepticism before being killed by a monster #monsterdon

Science fiction and science fact are not the same and you'll be only seeing the science fiction of atomic energy in this movie.

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChangedTheWorld1957 #MonsterMiru

I really hope that excessively attractive secretary kills everyone.

I understand it isn't that sort of film, but I hope.

#MonsterDon

Yeah you can't see Grace today, she's having her eyes propped open to test oven cleaner >:( #Monsterdon

Ehrlenmeyer flask, it's genuine science!

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Do they know about shrinkage?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon You understand or you don't understand? You FETCH THE COFFEE... YOU WENCH... ;) you don't understand, nevermind! ;)

@moira good call

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Traditional monster movie line detected! "[X thing] does strange things to the human body..." #Monsterdon

Radioactivity mentioned

#Monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

is was shriveled ?
#Monsterdon

"Sure is an eager beaver..."
"That's no way to talk about a friend of Flutterboy."

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

How could they recognize that as Hollister? He was completely deformed.

#Monsterdon

They Live!

#Monsterdon

Slime! Yay, everything is better with slime.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon
"No, of course I don't understand!"

Boatkakke
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon It's the coming of the lord!!!

ew it's the Stuff!

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

Oh god, marshmallow fluff all over your hand? Nasty

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

It's also a lake, not a sea....

#Monsterdon

Hollister is what our friend calls me, so I don't really appreciate what has happened to Hollister here

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

"what's that all over your hand?"

"damn those seamen"

#monsterdon

They have FOUR Land Radios. All carefully numbered. #monsterdon

GOOOOOOOOOP
