#Monsterdon
This monster looks like he needs some help learning to ask a girl to the sock hop.

Leave Blake! He's expendable! Wait, he didn't hear that did he?

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

Exploring the cavern, which is deeper than the Salton sea should be, we find a giant radioactive... salt crystal? Maybe it's an egg? They call it a "marine growth".

The boat people send a net to recover it.

#monsterdon

These divers sound psychotic over the radio.

#Monsterdon

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAHHA
That rubber mask needs some botox real bad.
#monsterdon

not a bad looking monster #monsterdon

Monster right now: "Why are they stealing my piss bottle?"

#monsterdon #TheBeastWhoChallengedTheWorld

AND WE HAVE MONSTER

#monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #ChallengedTheWorld1957

Ooh! Bug-eyed monster, classic! #Monsterdon

The navy is trying to unravel this mystery with another boat trip, sending divers to stare at rocks and check the seaweed for radiation. While doing that, they discover a cave, which they should obviously enter to search for treasure.

#monsterdon

It's a reading of 1.038, didn't you hear the first time

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Oh this is where Rover from The Prisoner comes from!

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

80 feet, 97 feet, I'm not sure how it works in something like the salton sea, but I'm pretty sure 100 feet in the ocean is where you need to start using trimix rather than normal air for SCUBA right?

#Monsterdon

we haven't had a movie with extended diving sequences in a while

#monsterdon

Monster sighting!

#Monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

@RobynGoodfellow

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

@Lazarou one they get started with it, they don't stop

#Monsterdon

OMG, a fight over the closed beach? It's #Jaws before there was #Jaws!

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Weird how they're underwater but they sound like they're in a recording studio... #monsterdon

Back at the beach building, beach mom is distressed, possibly psychically aware that her daughter was eaten by a sea monster.

Then some little boys are playing outside, fighting over a navy cap. We follow them and find a uniform (from the disappeared random boy) and the dress (from the disappeared daughter).

Mom is sad and starts crying; but the army boys ignore her feelings to stare at more monster cum on a nearby rock.

#monsterdon

Try a reading... I recommend The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

#monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld1957

"what's the bottom like?"

That's rather a personal question, commander. #Monsterdon

Sir, initial reports show there's a flea on the tail on the frog on the bump on the log in the hole at the bottom of the sea

⁉️ TRIVIA THAT CHALLENGED
THE WORLD 🐌

Actress Audrey Dalton in 2016 Interview:

"The monster stuff was fun, crouching behind a desk with a monster breaking down the wall. But you had to play it very straight. Once you start seeing the funny side of it, it doesn't work."

#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

#Monsterdon
It's ISOTHERMIC MAN!

@Lazarou This movie will have you covered

#Monsterdon

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

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

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

damn that's a lot of '"""secretions""""
#monsterdon

That swim scene was definitely on my #monsterdonBingo card. #Monsterdon #TheMonsterthatChallengedTheWorld 👾🎥

Ah, a sailor's cap, a rarity this close to a military base. #Monsterdon

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

Is this like Shaun of the Dead where character's names are related to their fate? Mort is Mort. What will happen to Captain Beaver?
#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

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

Memento Morty.

#monsterdon #TheBeastWhoChallengedTheWorld

I wonder if Spielberg saw this

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Is that rock RIGHT next to the mother's shop?!?

Like Fifty feet away?

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

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

Chekhov’s neckerchief!

#Monsterdon

impossible to take the name Morty seriously

#Monsterdon

Ma, I’m a Bad Girl. That’s just how it is. #monsterdon

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

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

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

#Monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

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

Could science have been... WRONG‽

#monsterdon

"lady, I want to talk to you about your sandy beach"

"how dare you!!""

#Monsterdon

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

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

Wow, some of the Italian audio was re-recorded. Just went through some big patch of audio that was re-done with way worse quality. Wonder what the story is there, minor production drama.

#Monsterdon

Corn-teen. #Monsterdon #TheMonsterthatChallengedTheWorld 👾🎥

Why yes, I would say he was stroking to the east. Possibly stroking to the west. I'd even go so far as to conjecture he was stroking to the woman that he loved the best.

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

By all means continue holding the vial that is clearly very radioactive. #monsterdon

I wonder what the ladybug is up to

#monsterdon

This? This is like leather! I made a very handsome jacket out of it!

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

You keep lunch in the morgue?

#Monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

Roast hand on rye
#Monsterdon

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

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Nate Brown? Jeez they really phoned that name in.

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

Ah medical examiner humor.

They're totally like that too.
#monsterdon

@cptbutton @Binder why not both?

#Monsterdon

Chekhov’s Ladybug?

#monsterdon

top secret secretions

#monsterdon

"Hey baby, no need to react like that. It's just a simple marine secretion."

#Monsterdon

Lotta childbearing going on in the white goop lab

#Monsterdon

how many girls who are also secretaries will be in this movie?

#monsterdon

Hollister has seen some things in the depths #monsterdon

A Marine secretion ?!

#monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld1957

Sea-creation from a sea-monster maybe

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

"Radiation simply isn't that dangerous. A buch of liberal ado about nothing. Commies."
#monsterdon

Science fiction is more fun!

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

"Sometimes seawater does strange things to human flesh"

Just classic #Monsterdon things 😀

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

hoping for a mad scientist arc #monsterdon

"out radioactive experiments had nothing to do with what happened to your man. But don't ask about the giant lizard we shipped to japan"

#monsterdon

"You're not to discuss that with anyone, Understand?"

"No, of course not"

"No you don't understand, or no you won't discuss it with anyone?"

"I dunno, what's it worth to you?

#Monsterdon

Don't let your kids play with the lab animals. So many reasons. #monsterdon

Mysterious seamen found in boat

#monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld1957

Radioactivity mentioned

#Monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

It's not radioactive, it's polluted with toxic farm runoff. Oh sorry, that's reality. Yea, radioactive, sure. #monsterdon

We won't need you anymore, Wyatt. You're fired.

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

I bet Twilliger is ticklish and kind to his many pets

#Monsterdon

“It’s Sanders!”

“Quick! Check for his secret recipe! It should be on him in the event of his death.”

#Monsterdon

Oh that's uh...

That's spunky.

#monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #ChallengedTheWorld1957

Lol, Flutterboy spent his load over the side....

⏳ 30 MINUTE POLL 🐌

Which of the following is NOT part of the body count of tonight's feature?

#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

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

Our intrepid Boat Sailors drive up to where the Lieutenant has parachuted, only to find his parachute floating like a Portugese Man-O-War. One sailor dives down to look for the missing Lieutenant then the other one sees a scary shadow and shows us how much his eyes can bulge before he screams.

#monsterdon

Salt 'N Sea

#monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld1957

#Monsterdon

He lost his Johnson...😄

There have been ancient lakes caused by natural overflows of the Colorado River, but the current Salton Sea is a man-made overflow.

https://saltonsea.com/get-informed/history/

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

MONSTER CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP

#monsterdon

No one will be seated during the embarkation sequence! #Monsterdon

Flutterboy 242 has a bit of an unmotivated scream.

#Monsterdon

THAT's NOT JOHNSON!

Wait, is it?

NO!

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

Parachute boy was challenged by the Salton Sea monster....

#Monsterdon

No Randy I'm serious if we just strap a camera on the boat we can get paid to be out on the boat

...well yeah, you gotta dress like a sailor

#Monsterdon

SEND MORE SAILORS. #Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Flutterboy 242 is my new drag name
#Monsterdon

This is actually some pretty cool footage of a skydive.

#Monsterdon

Thrill to the jumping! Thrill to the falling! Thrill to the parachute opening!

#monsterdon #challengedtheworld1957

Sorry I'm really distracted by people voluntarily entering a lake which became highly toxic in the 70s. #monsterdon

"Weeee, I'm a bird!"

#Monsterdon

I have been to the Salton Sea and can confirm you don't want a monster coming out of that #monsterdon
