They need a young Steve McQueen to fight this thing. #Monsterdon

This is literally turning into "The Green Slime" but on earth instead of a space station. Didn't see that coming.

#Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment

Where is UNIT when you really need them?

⁉️ THE TRIVIA XPERIMENT ❌🚀

🐙 A live octopus was used for close-ups of the monster for the Final Battle. Uncredited. Probably also unpaid.

#TheQuatermassXperiment

@Violinknitter He would just solve it with a sonic screwdriver.

It’s a cactimanflyloogie.

Ye Olde Livestream Tryke.
#Monsterdon

Kinda feel bad for the monster
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

And that concludes tonight's showing of John Carpenter's The Thing #monsterdon

Loving this scene in Westminster Abbey and the pompous presenter going on about the murals.

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

They're only actors.

#Monsterdon #Quatermass1955

When does the Doctor show up?? #Monsterdon

“I want everyone cleared. Public, clergy, everyone” #Monsterdon

I should set my phone alarm to an audio clip of "There is no cause for alarm"

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Nigel Kneale ended up working with John Carpenter by doing an early draft of the Halloween 3 script (very little of his work remained in the final film) and Carpenter later went on to credit Prince of Darkness to the pseudonym "Martin Quatermass".

So if you've been watching this and going "Hmm, The Thing vibes with this one" you're right! #monsterdon

Why are we getting the slimy monster in the last 5 minutes?? #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

NEWS of the ALIEN INVASION - Camera 3 has the scoop!

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

That's the ay to kill blob-slug-space-man? A big power extension using the whole london electricity?

#monsterdon
#theQuartermassXperiment

that presenter is a real Pro. he was giving dude major side eye while still carrying on like nothing was happening. good for him.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Come on blinky lights... #monsterdon

The extremely slow monster #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

And once more with the ever so tired police announcements.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

oh no don't let cactus goo get these dead corpses in westminster abbey who knows what powers they'll have then!

Let's face it, Briscoe is the real hero.

#monsterdon #Quatermass1955

Oh I say, another dead guy, what!?

#Monsterdon #QuatermassXperiment

Stiff upper lip, and all that. This gothic revivalist structure isn’t getting any younger! #Monsterdon

If there's no cause for alarm, why are your actions so alarming? #Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment 🎥🍿

TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES!
#Monsterdon

Monster is kinda just hanging out there
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

The Gin Goblin, on the top of Westminster Abbey: "THANCTUARY! THANCTUARY!"

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassExperiment

We'll record somewhere away from the body but get back to work! 🎥

Her Royal Majesty's Operation Yashima

#Monsterdon

Is movie still asking itself how to pronounce Quatermass? #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

Lucky we employ zombies.

#Monsterdon #Quatermass1955

the BBC TV camera bike is amazing.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Lip reading was a required skill for all television viewing in the 50s.

#Monsterdon

Sewer rushes just as soldier walks past. In the distance we hear "DAMN THIS DEPENDABLE COLON."

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassExperiment

This monster not big on in-betweening

#monsterdon #TheQuartermassExperiment

Attention, all British people. We would like to inform the public that they are not to pay any attention to the vampire cactus starfish taking over the island. Repeating. Pay no attention to the vampire cactus starfish. If you look directly at them, you will fall over stone dead. Good day. Carry on. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

Clearly neither of the other two people in the production booth are capable of doing anything

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

I feel like people shouldn't have to be told not to touch weird shit they find in the street.

I mean, they do have to be told the obviously, but it just feels like something you shouldn't need to tell people. #Monsterdon

It's a very slow moving monster though, not very threatening
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

"Anything unusual" is so broad, the police would be fielding questions about deflated footballs and people in drunken stupors all day.

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

“This is all we need to start the program with a swing” #Monsterdon

Hey let's set Westminster Abbey on fire! That'll start it?

Westminster Abbey?

Conan looking concerned at monster

#monsterdon #TheQuartermassExperiment

#monsterdon fantastic!

That is a very nice monster!
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

@arrjay oh no, they never try fire! #IamAbot #monsterdon

At least he's easily traceable by the snail trail he leaves behind. #monsterdon

@leece
Pretty much everything ripped this off.
#monsterdon

That's a very nice monster for 1955 #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

That was a HUGE BBC…

microphone.

#Monsterdon

Y'know, this is slow but it is in fact pretty good if you're willing to deal with that

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

@cocaine_owlbear Now I'm wondering if Mabel (astronaut's wife) knew how to hire the PI because she had a friend who had to escape her own husband. I'm thinking of a whole reference whisper network for escaping wives. This subplot could have made a decent movie! A thriller, not a #Monsterdon movie. #TheQuatermassXperiment

I want to be a phone talk actor!

#monsterdon

Oh good it's prehensile now.
#Monsterdon

Congratulations. It's a...squid. #monsterdon

the smart goo move should be to board a bunch of trains
#monsterdon

Ugh, why hasn't Scotland Yard converted to metric yet? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT WE NEED EVANS. SOMEONE GET EVANS!

every TV detective should have a cartoon grabby arm on them at all times #monsterdon

this movie explains why I have oreo powers

#monsterdon

Name Drop! Drink! #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Thank goodness Victor Slime Monster leaves a slime trail wherever it goes.

#monsterdon

Did that mouse just fart? #monsterdon

The blob is escaping containment. Increase the Bunsen burner!
#Monsterdon

No doubt he was here. He left a slug trail, just like I'm about to, straddling this very sexy wall.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassExperiment

i could see the string 🤭

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Y’all, don’t touch the goo starfish!!!

#Monsterdon

Unattended Bunsen burner with the flame turned high is always a great idea.

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

I guess we will have another classic #Monsterdon sudden end here
#TheQuartermassXperiment

So the Blob just ripped this off? #Monsterdon #Quatermass1955

"The Restoration of Westminster Abbey" is serious business

#Monsterdon

Wait, this woman gets completely drunk and thinks she sees things every week that never turn out to be true, and yet the police still pay her cash for her reports?

#Monsterdon

Is that a beef tongue in that cage with that mouse and all that synthetic saliva?

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassExperiment

FEED ME, SEYMOR!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

NOOOOOO don't get the little mouskins!

so this is all because there was an invisible cactus in space?

#monsterdon

"Arm all officers with salt shakers!"
#Monsterdon

How long is this Rosie scene going to last? #Monsterdon

Silent talking heads, huh

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

@CactuarJoe

Do I know that "Kill transmission" actor from somewhere?

#monsterdon
#TheQuatermassXperiment

Has that Bunsen burner been burning the whole dang movie?

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

The Gin Goblin is Spiderman's drunkest super villain. #Monsterdon

Chekhov's Flame?

#monsterdon

Hahaha the captions are translating the British into American.
#Monsterdon

Um, movie? You can wrap this all up in 13 minutes, right? #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

Space Snails #monsterdon

A jungle of tentacles? I think I've seen this Hentai before... #monsterdon

guy got half way across the wall and couldn't make it over the rest of the way, decided to make it look deliberate.
