he just came from his mistress's house. or in, i suppose #monsterdon #theqatermassxperiment1955

This version of Lomax reminds me of the police chief in Hot Fuzz, but I looked it up, it’s a different actor.

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

3 - 1 = -2

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

I'm into it! I'll buy Donlevy as a bossy American technology guy, fast-talking everyone. It almost feels like a deliberate choice of adaptation, like someone in production has slipped in a bit of incidental social commentary.

It was Americans who were really into stunts like what we're getting from Dr. #Quatermass. They were shooting people up into space for questionable reasons, inviting gawd only knows what trouble.

#Monsterdon

Ready? We'll both sit down on the count of 3, so neither one is rude at the other. Got it? 1... 2... 3... sit. Well done, us. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

okay, maybe i'm just tired, but this "plain simple bible man" is kinda cracking me up.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Dr. Quatermass was famous for taking a signle breath and talking for 5 minutes straight nonstop #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

SIMPLE BIBLE MAN

_RUN_!

#monsterdon

i don't understand the "lomax" references but i support them #monsterdon #theqatermassxperiment1955

but did Quaterass _penetrate_?

Got it.
Good.

Files on the crew, and a calculator to help you with all this math, Inspector. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

kwaiter-mass?

is there a running joke that no one agrees on how to pronounce this name?

#monsterdon

"Mr. Quatermass will see you, sir."

"Actually, I'm Mr. Buck-and-a-Quater-Quatermass, but I'm not telling HIM that."

#Monsterdon

for a second i thought he was licking his phone and not, you know, doing a different perfectly normal human grooming activity at his desk while having a conversation ​:neocat_glare:​
#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

A piece of ice? Who says that?

#monsterdon

more penetrating

enemy territory is a weird word for it tho'

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

The audience will be on the edge of their seat for the shaving scene! #monsterdon

Gonna get some sugar from the wife on payday are you?

#monsterdon

That shaving bit was like the torture hanger in Raiders

#monsterdon #TheQuartermassExperiment

REAL TIME SHAVING!
QAURTERMASS!!!
#monsterdon

"plain simple bible man" oh gawd no. #monsterdon

#monsterdon

I love a good shaving scene, myself..

yeah this is absolutely the man in the bean #monsterdon #theqatermassxperiment1955

None of those headlines made any sense! #Monsterdon #Quatermass1955 #QuatermassXperiment

tonight's film brought to you by Norelco Electric Razors #monsterdon

No police investigation because we want this guy to stay alive

#Monsterdon

I wonder what the Magnetic Monster is up to right now.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassExperiment

“I’m afraid the camera won’t tell us anything.” It doesn’t look like the film is hanging out, exposed to light, so what’s the problem?

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

DRAGNET!

#monsterdon

"we forgot to hit record, boss" #monsterdon #theqatermassxperiment1955

get it? got it? good

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Dammit, movie, I wanted to read out the other headlines.

#monsterdon
#TheQuatermassXperiment

Green! Riechenheim! Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated! #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

#monsterdon I know what I'm doing! I'm being emasculated by doubting Thomas constabularies. You just ask questions, endless questions! LIKE THE BRITISH. Whine mope and endlessly ask questions. ;) He's from Fanduel! OKAY!

The interior and exterior of the rocket don'tmatch. Looks somethink like Doctor Who
#monsterdon
#theQuartermassXperiment

"He said to clear his browser history!?"

#monsterdon

Shaving on your desk is most unhygienic
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

any of those headlines gonna tell me if that dude's gonna be all right, or

#monsterdon

That's right, let the sick space guy breathe all over your face.

#monsterdon

whoops, RIP Vitctor.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

i like how they built the rocket to perfectly be level with being crashed at a weird angle so it would be easy to walk out of in such a scenario

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

More like Quatermassachusetts

sorry

#Monsterdon

Someone goes missing ✅ #monsterdon #monsterdonbingo

“If I knew that, I wouldn’t be wasting my time trying to find out” #Monsterdon

They really shouldn't have soaked him in water. We all know astronauts hate water. Sometimes to an allergic degree.

So ... the hatch is arch shaped outside, and round inside??
#monsterdon #Quatermass1955

"Where's Rambo?"

#monsterdon

I’m not here to tell you anything. I’m just looking for the next risk to take! #Monsterdon

Stay out of an occupied ambulance apparently.

#Monsterdon #thequartermassxperiment

"How could they have got out?"

"Have you ever heard of the Donner Party?"
#Monsterdon

'Victor, Victor…go write some history.'

ROCKET EXPERIMENT SUCCESS

Wherabouts of the R in Quatermass' name remain unknown #monsterdon

⁉️ THE TRIVIA XPERIMENT ❌🚀

Irish-American actor Brian Donlevy might have added interest for the American audience, but he did not act consistently with the character for some involved in production.

🍸 Worse, he was suffering from alcoholism, as writer/director Val Guest found when brandy was discovered in Donlevy's ever-present coffee flask.

Guest: "Brian was all right, no problem at all once you kept him sober".

#TheQuatermassXperiment

A rocket expert, a door expert... What can't this man do?

#Monsterdon #thequartermassxperiment

They showed the rocket righting itself with a camera tilt. From the inside!

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

#monsterdon

I really love the way the future was. The interior of these rockets are so awesomely analog.

American Quatermass is serious uncanny valley shit

#Monsterdon

@cargot_robbie Thank you!! #Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment 🎥🍿

Get Tim LaHaye, two of the crew have been raptured! #monsterdon

@fabio Apparently they can just turn the whole chamber around

'cause that makes sense

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

"Rosebud" #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

The astronaugts are in futuristic aluminum BMX armor!

This rocket has a live well? #Monsterdon

"Rosebud"
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

real "Ground Control to Major Tom" moments here

#monsterdon

Love how they guess about space flight before any people went up.

#monsterdon

Getting some Lifeforce (1985) vibes from this #Monsterdon

Oxygen, morphine, glucose? Add some vitamin E, and it sounds like my kinda party.

#monsterdon #TheQuartermassExperiment

lol. 300° isn’t astoundingly hot in Fahrenheit -or- Celsius. Have they never used an oven? #Monsterdon #quatermassxperiment

@cherizilla We've been tricked into watching a SpaceBalls prequel

#Monsterdon

rocket looks like an rv honest to god

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

contamination control is for SUCKERS not dr kwatermiss

#monsterdon

Slower countdown == MOAR DRAMA

#monsterdon #TheQuartermassExperiment

The rocket is upside down, so how are they rightside up inside it? #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

My spouse: "How is Monsterdon going?"
Me: "Terrible!"

It feels wrong when it isn't terrible! ​:floofLol:​

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

#monsterdon

Reichenheim? Was this a V2 rocket?

So the metal hatch goes below the wooden front porch slats

#Monsterdon

Firefighters in shiny black leather pants?

WTF kind of movie are we watching?

#Monsterdon

"the camera won't tell us anything. They forgot to take the lenscap off." #monsterdon

this is the slowest countdown ever #monsterdon

IT WAS MAN! THE THING IN THE ROCKET WAS MAN ALL ALONG! err wait we knew that.
#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

They got made tiny - the Master's been here!

@peterries #monsterdon

don't cross the streams, Egon.

Um. That one guy’s hose appears to be having performance issues… #Monsterdon #Quatermass1955 #QuatermassXperiment

"This is Carl Phillips! the fire is spreading everywhere! it's about twenty yards to my right--" #Monsterdon

The rocket’s ceiling fell in too

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

How… how did the water open the door?? #Monsterdon

"we need everything out, oxygen, morphene, glucose"

ooh, sounds like a weekend in vegas

#Monsterdon
