"Something in her blood?" Guess it beats a worm in her brain. #monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum

something in her blood? yeah, have a taste, tell us what you think, i'm getting, banana split? #monsterdon
He will never be satisfied. #Monsterdon
Don Nicolas "Funky Cold" Medina #monsterdon
I'm keeping an eye on the storm radar so I might not participate too much tonight in #Monsterdon, but I am watching. And I am reading your toots!
For all you Jeopardy watchers: Vincent's looking like an older Matt Amodio with a mustache. #monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
I'd like to meet Vincent Price by surprise in a dark alley. Well, not NOW, but an alive Vincent. #monsterdon #thepitandthependulum
We are dying at yall's riffs lmao #monsterdon #thepitandthependulum
the apparatus is now calibrating
I don't judge, it's hard to dust the upper corners of the wall
#monsterdon
Wow! Vincent price jumpscare #Monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
"""shock""" and """grief""" #monsterdon
Calling it: the noisy "apparatus" is their electrical generator because they're time travellers. No I haven't read the original why
Only one person in the universe could rock a pencil moustache and a frilly collar #Monsterdon
A wild Vincent Price appears! #monsterdon
Vincent took a banger dump
SUDDEN VINCENT PRICE π€π€π€ #monsterdon
you can't fool me i know the first four notes of the godzilla brass riff aka simon says riff anywhere. vincent price ripped off his walk up track #monsterdon
"you are welcome, sir," he said, looking at him like a spoilt sardine
That noise is just the CNC machine. It does that once and a while!
Oh, wait, that's *my* basement I'm thinking of...
This doesn't LOOK like the spanish inquisition. I was expecting the spanish inquisition. #monsterdon #thepitandthependulum
"What's the noise?" That would be the plumbing. You'll want to use the upstaird facilities. #monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
PRICE! #monsterdon
"How was I not notified sooner?!" "It's the late mideavel period, Europost hasn't been invented yet."
Cobwebs! #Monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
If you're going to have a mausoleum, at least dust it once or twice a century, sheesh!
#Monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
@arisummerland OMG yes she totally does!
"...don't mind the noise. That's just the garbage disposal."
They got an honest to god art director on this one and boy howdy does it show. #monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
It's unfortunate that @uptownsongclub is at work right now, because he knows all the choice Roger Corman production anecdotes #monsterdon
Vincent Price is the Pit in the Pendulum of my heart.
#Monsterdon #PitandthePendulum
they've been careful about visitors since that Amway guy wouldn't leave #Monsterdon
Man they've got some BUSY SPIDERS in this house. #Monsterdon
i think their Mysterious Visitor would be better served playing JFK in some biopic somewhere. #monsterdon
"She is interred below"
We are not wasting any time getting to the spooky dungeon, are we
#Monsterdon bingo
A creaky door!
I like to keep a scrollwork gate in my living room to separate the living from the dead. #monsterdon #thepitandthependulum
So far the biggest takeaway from this #Monsterdon is that good housekeeping services were hard to find
What do you mean they're not talking in English accents to denote this is a Period Piece regardless of the fact the characters are all actually presumably speaking Spanish
Is that a cat statue
@sean "It's a hole in the ground where they put bodies, but that's not important right now." #Monsterdon
This is what Elizabeth wears when she's just laying about at home, I guess? #monsterdon
Vincent Price is the Toei logo
Since the death. #monsterdon
"Grave? What is...grave?" #monsterdon #thepitandthependulum
@nev if u reply to an account that isn't you then when you post with public visibility it shows up in the #monsterdon feed but not in your local TL <3
You can't bother my brother
DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM #monsterdon
These are the most American Europeans I've ever seen #Monsterdon
They need some landscaping, it would be such a nice place.
#monsterdon
I like how the statue of Mary is the only red in that shot. #monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
Why is there smoke #monsterdon #thepitandthependulum
I think I can now formulate a rule from other movies: if the carriage-driver refuses to go further, turn back with him.
This is an actual anecdote about Roger Corman's ingenious frugality, not a joke #monsterdon
Is Funky Don Madina available? #Monsterdon
"Oh. I'm sorry." Sorry she has to let this dude in.
#Monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum

#monsterdon
The funky Donia Medina #Monsterdon
Dad: have you ever read the Poe story?
Me: It's about a guy in some trouble, right?
#monsterdon
John Medina is in Seattle founding the neighbourhood of Medina
don medina? funky don medina? #monsterdon
It seems like the house orchestra is still tuning up #monsterdon
Lava lamp intro is always promising
#Monsterdon
This is the part of the country where they grow the Star Trek sets. #monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
I just noticed that the movie is called "Pit and the Pendulum" with no "the" in the title, though the poster does have a "the"
And, we start with a sea! And a harsh soundtrack. And a glorious castle on a sea cliff.
Is this the same forest from The Undead? #Monsterdon #STAAAAAY
Are these sounds made by the pit, or the pendulum? #monsterdon
@moira You know weβre on the right track now. #monsterdon
PIT AND THE PENDULUM, the story of the founding of Pitsburgh, Pennsylvania!
I think John Nicholson is a different Nicholson from Jack Nicholson. #monsterdon #thepitandthependulum
Fog machine gonna get a workout here I see
You thought you were safe when you saw the MGM lion but NO! American International it is. Hi Mr. Z. Arkoff #monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
@aburka For purposes of #Monsterdon, so am I π
Samual Z. Arkoff, darn, I was hoping for Samuel L. Jackson
Castle on Cliff!
@BsCreativeLife [aerosmith riff]
Like Colours out of Space.
And a soundtrack out of... a broken piano.
#Monsterdon #PitandthePendulum
@diazona honestly I'm a fan #monsterdon
@Taweret That was the job of the metrosexuals I thought #monsterdon
American International, responsible for the cowboy in Dracula adaptations #Monsterdon
We are going full β¨aestheticβ¨ tonight #monsterdon
no, nothing ominous about a giant be-turreted castle up on a steep steep cliff, whatever makes you think that... #monsterdon
"Have you ever read Poe... on WEED???" --Roger Corman #monsterdon
YAY a sea!
@Taweret except for superheros, agreed
Ah good, there's a sea. Something to be filed off for future reference #monsterdon
Where wolf? #monsterdon
Nice Gothic castle background matte right out of the gate. We are definitely in for finer than the usual fare. #Monsterdon
edit: oh, no "The"
we need to bring capes back
"...couldn't you drop me off at the top of the cliff, like where the house is? Wait! Come back!"
THAT's the guy who put a feather in his cap
Cool psychedelic opening #Monsterdon #ThePitAndThePendulum
Time for a nice idyllic visit to the countryside, where I'm sure we will not have ANYTHING CREEPY OR SPOOKY HAPPENING WHATSOEVER!
"Sir, we've almost arrived at Castle CreepyAndSpooky, enjoy your stay!"
ZER CASTLE! Early Corman baronial style, very chic #Monsterdon
Worst. Uber. Ever.
