That zoo was Chessington Zoo!

#Monsterdon

btw @ryan what is that music playing on https://miru.miyaku.media/ right now? It's good. #monsterdon

I was so certain Quatermass was going to be infected! Alas.

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Wow. Quatermass, spelled QuatermASS. Thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting! Have a great week Beautiful Mutants. Congratulations Seahawks fans! #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Cadavermass is going to go pout now, like a petulant toddler.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassExperiment

And thus ends another #monsterdon, not with a bang but with a fizz-zap-pop-sizzle.

I'd forgotten what a repugnant human Quatermass was. But he is a stereotypical American from a British view point, so I guess that makes some kind of sense.

Anyway, thank you all for tooting along, and thank you as always to @Taweret for hosting! Til the next time!

RIP, Carroon.

My Grandma used to say "A Kwaitermass never learns." Always thought it was strange until now #Monsterdon

quatermass, founder of weyland-yutani

#monsterdon

Sooo... that sure stopped right when the run time ran out. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

And Quatermass, the true monster, fucks off to fire another rocket.

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Not too shabby. Thanks @Taweret and everyone! #monsterdon

He set up a sequel with only seconds to spare! #Monsterdon

#monsterdon also apparently inspired Couillon Quest somehow

so anyway the wealthy dickhead fucked off back into irresponsible experimentation

WATCH THE SKIES

10/10

#Monsterdon

And then they fucked off into space.

Thanks @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon

DON'T GIVE HIM MONEY FOR ANOTHER ROCKET WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT

#monsterdon

now, for the question

was Quartermass always wearing gloves?

#monsterdon

everyone is like "yay the day is saved from the alien invasion" and this mofo stalks off like "damn, try again i guess"

-fin
#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

the zoo lion signed a great contract with MGM after this movie - that's him right there in the logo!

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

And they all fuck off into space....

#monsterdon #Quatermass1955

#monsterdon

DAMN.

#monsterdon

@amyfou word! #monsterdon

"One world at a time's good enough for me."

#Monsterdon

Quatermass will be back in "Stop filming me" and the dramatic conclusion of "I'm calling my lawyer."

#monsterdon #thequatermassXperiment

And lo, the Abby shalt smell of overcook'd broccoli. #Monsterdon

#monsterdonbingo right at the end! #Monsterdon

Though not Christians, our family _loved_ watching WPIX every Christmas Eve when they broadcast that burning monster for hours and hours….

#Monsterdon
#TheQuatermassXperiment

"Hmm. Smells like roast pork."

#Monsterdon

I will purposefully walk all the way off this set, without speaking to anyone, so the film can end. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

if you're cold they're cold, bring them inside, after all #monsterdon #theqatermassxperiment1955

#monsterdon

You basically just killed a zoo through electrocution. But you prayed on the Bible, so it's fine.

@yatsu Like barbequed McDonald's chicken nuggets :x #Monsterdon

Oh, OH NO.

THAT'S NOT GLITTER

IMDB trivia "Among the materials used by Les Bowie to embellish the monster were bovine entrails and tripe"

😱

#Monsterdon

Cactopus! #Monsterdon #Quatermass1955 #QuatermassXperiment

so many options, and what we got was a cactopus with sixteen moist drippy schlongs.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassExperiment

oH! the monster! shots! #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

bet that smells amazing (repulsive)

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Huh I wonder if @miru is showing a longer cut or if the stream just got delayed by a couple minutes?

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

well?

how far back did you set restoring the Abbey?

#monsterdon

i appreciate "the alien is octopus shaped" take 🐙

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

So who wants to fry a houseplant today?
#Monsterdon

no need to be alarmed. 🌵

One down, several hundred to go!

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

It got The Chair

#Monsterdon

So...............................calamari?

#monsterdon #thequatermassXperiment

oh no there actually is a Quatermass 2

:blobcat_patpat: #monsterdon

That BBC director looks damned familiar. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Let's eat this sucker!!

#monsterdon He looks like a noir detective.

A noir detective about to start his own space agency.

Ah, we get the "Edison discrediting Tesla" ending this time. Bravo, movie. Way to diss alternating current. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

I prefer this ending:

"Quatermass leaves the building, ignoring all questions.

Heading outside, he stops.

Then, tentacles erupt from... everywhere and he screams as spores flood out."

#Monsterdon

Now would be a good time for the creepy girl with the dolly to wander in!
#Monsterdon

So many penes.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassExperiment

keep calm and kill it with fire #Monsterdon

Little potatoes.
Bigger potato.

TENTACLES! Every monster turns into tentacles!
#monsterdon #quatermass

GIVE IT THE JUICE

#monsterdon

So the plant based alien is gonna get electrocuted?
…
Did Howard Hawks write this? #Monsterdon

It's like the movie was like "Woah! Woah there.. we almost had some tension. Slow down there Chuck." #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

I also don't know how to spell 'Abby' I guess dangit

An inspector never runs. #monsterdon

Movie, we need an ending, here... #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

I keep seeing references to "gin goblin" on the timeline, but missed it in the movie. Is there some reason they didn't use the phrase "demon gin"? Was it considered too old fashioned by 1955?

#Monsterdon

Reminds me of the scenes from the Crawling Eye movie.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

We're gonna fix this thing the way we fix everything. with electricity..

Welp. Honestly, kinda boring. But not terrible. 5 goos out of 10. g'night folks! thanks @Taweret as always. #monsterdon

I can't with this glistening single eye yonic bush monster y'all

#Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment

This building stinks of faith and dead alien menace. #Monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow So you don't expect to see anything else. That would cost money.

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

I would like space cactus octopus to win this final battle plz

Guys, he just wants to hang out for a bit. Don't get worked up over it.
#Monsterdon

oh it screams like everything at once!

#Monsterdon

so much glitter, that alien spore creature is faaaaaaaaabulous

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Please form an orderly queue for viewing the extremely dangerous xenobiological phenomenon. Then go back to your homes. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

Classic Monsterdon ending #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

The monster is just chilling. Leave it be.

#Monsterdon

“If that thing spoors before we kill it, you won’t have a city”#Monsterdon

poor goo monster just wanted to see the famous crypts of Westminster Abbey

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Please do not panic. There is nothing to see. Please go back to your homes.

And they fucked off into the thermosphere! Good night, Sussex!

#Monsterdon

It'll take a miracle!
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

'There is no cause for alarm'??????

"If that thing spores before we kill it, you won't have any city!" Okay, that's quite a good line

Also, I like the symmetry of the too-hot-to-touch metal/electrocution via metal scaffolding

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

I love the analog Ampere and Voltage meters!! All sins fofgiven!

Quatermass 2: Return of the R! #monsterdon

Oh i guess this is the climax? Zapzap or the city and earth is doomed?

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

That's a Lotta amps. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment

Wow, he can do a live transmission of some sort of alien monster and he cuts the feed? What a lousy media journalist.
#Monsterdon

80 or 90 minutes? tell me this movie isn't that much longer? -- okay, i've never before been relieved to find that a scientist has grossly underestimated an alien's lifecycle.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

This orchestra is extremely load-bearing on the cinematic tension. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955
