Should your dead relatives be so easily accessed?
"My rotted visage is up here, asshole"
So, the message has to be important if your old man comes back from the dead to tell ya. #monsterdon
#monsterdon folding the cover carefully together, then Lorre just tossed it aside :)

I think that the gathered shoulders of Price's silver brocade doublet are underappreciated
BEWARE!! Beware of the extremely slow-moving grab of your collar!!
So does that mean his father is only "mostly dead"?
Dr Scarabus has been slipping it to Lenore?!
This movie is so quotable #monsterdon #TheRaven #TheRaven1963
Peter Lorrie
#monsterdon
What year is this supposed to be?
Price was 6'4", Lorre 5'3". #monsterdon
@trixter such a party killer #Monsterdon
youre really wasting Price if you're not making him the bad guy
milk spit lol
#Monsterdon #TheRaven
A corpse telling you to beware seems like really bad vibes.
Nothin' like a good old-fashioned drunken spellfight!
the less raven he gets the less i like him. this is just like beauty and the beast
Roderick C Raven?
#Monsterdon
My husband beat me at bingo! π
"oh come _on_ gramps I just wanted to cut your hair" #monsterdon
The corpse is trying to tell him to not sign a contract with Rodger Corman.
whoops, looks like papa minds after all.
That is one heckinβ well preserved corpse
Lugosi fell on hard times, and did some bad movies, but he didn't do this
Would dead man's toupee work? #Monsterdon #TheRaven
"...we only have one Iron Maid .... en"
Vincent taking his physical comedy cues from the bird! π€
#Monsterdon Good lord they're professors arguing.
If you get the evaporated bat's blood that's made in Mexico for export to the USA, they use real cane sugar!
He was known as Grand Master Flash
@bunnyhero Damned if you do, damned if you don't. #monsterdon
It's Peter Lorre! #monsterdon
@shaunduke will be delighted
this is SOME BACKSTORY
bros, stop talking about βgrand mastersβ and βmastershipβ #monsterdon
Vincent is reading all of his lines like he's lying his ass off and I love it
"He only used his hands?"
Van Dyke would've danced with cartoon penguins and banged Julie Andrews by now
β¦and the sound track is trying desperately to convey humour.
He has a basement jail, as one does.
#monsterdon Is it too late to vote for a different film this week?
i'm watching on tubi tonight because the youtube version i was going to watch had bad audio. so i've got ads this time
So, we're going full horror comedy with three of horror's greatest hams.
This is awesome!
EAP rolling in his grave every time this movie is run, this script is pure sorcery.
This film is even wackier than I remember. I first saw it when I was a pre-teen and loved it but.... i'm a bit embarrassed about that now π
enter the convenient family crypt.
Wacky hijinx music to a story (vaguely) based on The Raven is certainly a _choice_.
I miss Vincent acting across from the bird. Can we have the Raven back? #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Vincent Price and Peter Lorre just had fun doing this didn't they
Go to LIDL and get more dead man's hair!
Family crypts are so convenient.
#Monsterdon
Spoil the dead? At night? That's a daytime activity!
#Monsterdon
dead man's hair? so if we kill peter lorre, he's still got some hair, technically...
I'm only a dozen minutes in and this is already got a gently bonkers vibe, no notes, I love it!
Peter Lorre does NOT like his outfit! #monsterdon
@blogdiva it looks soooo uncomfortable #monsterdon
#monsterdon I wil say this, the bird acting in this is actually pretty impressive andGAH PETER LORRE
#Monsterdon That's one demanding bird. I'd just turn him back into a bird.
@dbendit (thinking of all those ass cracks) #Monsterdon #MagicTheGathering
Ah Jeezus! It's Lorre
@Newpa_Hasai oh yes, that's how doctorates were invented
It's been a great weekend of films at the watch parties. That all ends at #mondayactionmovie tomorrow, but in a fun way....#monsterdon
Vincent are you a wizard?
Or merely a painter of light.
#Monsterdon #TheRaven
Peter Lorre!
#Monsterdon
It's Peter Lorre!
okay I _did_ think the raven was gonna take a bath in it.
it would be less unnerving than the swallowing noises.
#monsterdon I also have trouble remembering the names of furries I meet at conventions
Those eyeballs look pretty fresh for 20 years old or more. #monsterdon
What happened at the sorcerer's convention STAYS at the sorcerer's convention

π¦ββ¬TRIVIA EVERMORE π¦ββ¬
All that anyone needs to imitate me is two soft-boiled eggs and a bedroom voice.
- Peter Lorre
#monsterdon I wonder how much of this set it let over from the other Cormen/Price/Poe films.
Of course when you have access to Vincent Price you want to get as much footage of him opening boxes and reacting to their contents as possible. #monsterdon
He's not a necromancer; this is all his dad's stuff. He's a nepo necromancer
#monsterdon
How do you make a film with a scary soundtrack but cartoonishly goofy voices?
Oh wait, now the soundtrack is acting goofy, too.
Not Vincent's best cooking segment, unfortunately #Monsterdon
wood cowbell is a nice touch
along with xylophone and tuba
#monsterdon
Black Smoke, guess we don't have a new pope yet. #monsterdon
#monsterdon Wow, this voice and tone was quite a choice.
I always whisk my potions. It's the only way to get the consistency just right. #Monsterdon
EYEBALLS!!!
Yβall, the Raven from HOGFATHER (Terry Pratchett) would be *all* about those eyeballs!
well, the eyes are oddly fresh for being boxed up for 20+ years.
I would be like, follow me Mr. Raven, all the ingredients you mention are right here in this crypt in the cellarβ¦
listen, if he's anything like the other raven, that box full of eyeballs is exactly what he wants.
Those eyes!
#Monsterdon
Thelonious Monk has a great tune called Eronel.
Weird that he has a new world tarantula in...where does this take place again? #Monsterdon
That's a Brachypelma hamorii!
#monsterdon point of order: who the FUCK was that skeleton?
Me wandering down to my sewing room, raven on my shoulder, covered in too much brocade, wondering when I should take care of this moustache....
Honestly I can't believe Vincent Price *wouldn't* have things like dried bats blood or rabbit lard kicking around #Monsterdon
Worried about what they did to the raven so it keeps its beak open
#monsterdon
CAW CAW BANG FUCK I'M DEAD
@dbendit "No, we don't keep those things in our house! We're vegetarian!" #Monsterdon #TheRaven1963
"We don't have bats here, we're vegetarian!"
