Are these flashbacks to the movie we just watched? This is GOLD
#monsterdon The Youtube copy has dropped frames. Still playing along, ah well. hahahahah
This is already better than the robot one
Wait, so they killed the luchador?? How am I this confused ALREADY???
But NO, he's ALIVE!!!
Police killed by the Bat[s]men?
@blogdiva Are you sure? Maybe the Aztecs sailed around the Caribbean, planting pyramids.
@blogdiva well there's your luchador
@allanb Y'know surprisingly it actually is
The Angel! #thecurseoftheaztecmummy #monsterdon
What name does El Santo use when he submits for his car registration and plate?
#Monsterdon Double Feature
#CurseOfTheAztecMummy
@hollie currently about 10 minutes in
@hollie Yes! The Curse of the Aztec Mummy. Seems to be a sequel or something. https://archive.org/details/CurseOfTheAztecMummylaMaldicionDeLaMomiaAzteca1957-English
@hollie Curse of the Aztec Mummy, it's on the archive
"you can't kill him, he's the star of this movie!"
hey the bat is a cold-blooded assassin in this one
already much better
Wait. The wrestlers are back. Awesome!
@lytta does it matter tho
(I think it's later because they talk about revealing the identity of The Bat at the beginning)
#monsterdon I think they replaced the machine gun sound with a plastic gear assembly that is slipping.
Who is the wrestler on the scene?
It seems like there might be something happening in this one
I wonder if I should pay attention
fimally a gaddamn luchador in this luchador movie
"He who ran came back to say that the other heroes were buried today" is the most ambiguous possible version of that sentiment
@Zerofactorial @Mikal @lytta At least The Phantom Planet had a war between tiny peoples.
#monsterdon Is the man in the white car wearing a cape and β¦ helmet?
@diazona honestly, the robot OR the mummy probably could have made a better Robot vs Mummy movie. #monsterdon
@CactuarJoe @yatsu We might have seen that movie, in fact
@yatsu @CactuarJoe lol
Although a potato could make a better movie than the one we just watched
@CactuarJoe that would actually make a much better movie than the one we just watched. #monsterdon
@athena_rising This is pretty much the only worthwhile part out of 64 minutes, apart from the grave keeper. #monsterdon
OMG! this is the follow up with a mention of Dr. Bat. it just has new pachucos.
I don't think Flora and Maria the housekeeper exchanged lines so no Bechdel for us tonight #monsterdon
okay so we're gonna see a lot of reused footage here that isn't actually reused _here_, it's just that we just saw it because of the _previous_ movie I GUESS
Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I'm wearing my #Monsterdon shirt tonight!

@jchaven You are a glutton for punishment
@whknott "The movie wasn't so hot
It didn't have much of a plot
We fell asleep, our goose is cooked
Our reputation is shot" oh yeah! #Monsterdon #TheRobotVsTheAztecMummy
FINE. YOU THINK YOUR FILTHY CARDBOARD ROBOT CAN BEAT ME?!
#monsterdon #TheRobotVsTheAztecMummy #TheCurseOfTheAztecMummy
it was a good #Monsterdon :muppets_waldorf: :muppets_statler:
@athena_rising You missed literally the only new footage in the movie.
How you feel about that is up to you.
@hollie but thereβs also a screen in the middle of the robotβs torso for someone to view out from. What?!
This was my first #monsterdon so I can't wait to see how much lower it can go.

#TheRobotVsTheAxtecMummy
Lessons for Screenwriters: Masterclass in Session....1. If you have a plot for a 'short' but the execs. give you a 90', one word: 'flashbacks.' 2. If you don't have a believable character use make-up to approximate an A-lister or two. 3. Make sure to add in yaoi-fight scene and fade to smoke for cover.
@jsadow This is a comment that could really go on ANY #Monsterdon movie....
@ranjit Many thanks to @Taweret for hosting, to @Cherizilla for bingo, and to all of you for the lulz! #Monsterdon
What did the robot do to the watchman, spray habanero sauce on his serape? #monsterdon
every time i watch what for me is the worst #monsterdon movie yet, i think it can't get any worse. i am always wrong
Dubbing was quite good. Not the voice actors, but the timing and accuracy of lip-syncing. seen/heard worse #Monsterdon
"Sorry to wake you up AGAIN. Here's your stuff back."
"FINALLY thank you."
#Monsterdon
#Monsterdon at long last, the mummy and the robot are about the fight <3
The mummy sounds as disgusted as I am.
Feel like you need more?
Some of us are doing a double feature starting at 0:15 after the hour
Curse of the Aztec Mummy
Testing the axiom that "two wrongs don't make a right"
@moira FORTY THREE MINUTES
holy *shit* #Monsterdon
Not really sure what just I just watched, I guess it was theoretically a movie of some sort but it lacked most of the usual movie elements, like being a movie
@ramsey didn't friend mummy fuck off in the general direction of the ruins of his tomb?
@CactuarJoe YES. 43:44 of previous film.
#Monsterdon ah that was great
It'd have been hilarious if there'd been a love scene between Edward and Flora, they could have spent forty minutes on him just unbuttoning her clothes
@Victorsigmoid I'm certainly horrified, but I don't think it's in the way they intended.
The key feature of any Aztec mummy feature is that the thing they promise in the title you only see for like 5 minutes at the end of the film, so you are forced to buy a ticket to the next film in order to actually see what you paid your cash money to see. Well, that and the funny hats.
So movies, huh. Was this one of them? Jury's still out for me. #monsterdon
I'm really not sure what happened at the end because no one fucked off into anything.
Okay, that was fucking hilarious, but no way I could keep up with both the movie and the comments.
#monsterdon
And that right there, folks is why we monsterdon, the patented βabrupt endingβ
So, next movie at 9:15? Curse of the Aztec Mummy?
Accurate.
Could have done with a longer fight at the end and much less recap of the previous films
@apLundell I think we can safely write off the Young America Horror Club as a troll farm.
#Monsterdon i want the old cemetery guard to come out and look at the robot and go "hoooo boy"
What in the actual fuck, of all the endings that didn't actually happen, that one didn't actually happen the most
Poor kneeless cyborg. I know precisely what kneelessness feels like.
Really? #monsterdon
How did the robot get down the stairs with no knees?
Oh man you guys I zonked out on the couch. I just _could not even_ with this movie. This is one I cannot make it through un-MST'ed.
#Monsterdon it's gonna take forever for this lumbering robot to make it to the cemetery, jeez
Hey, remember last week when we watched an Aztec mummy movie. It feels like just yesterday when.... thanks again to @Taweret for hosting. That was a tough one. #Monsterdon #RobotVsAztecMummy
Oh hey, the breastplate, and the bracelet. #monsterdon
Poor cyborg. Having to go zip-zap zip-zap zip-zap non-stop all the time.
Wow. That was really bad.
"recommended by Young America Horror Club"
for which i shall never forgive them. #monsterdon
oh lord, DEEP HURTING!!!!!
Thanks everyone for....whatever the fuck that was!
See you next week for more #monsterdon !!
That's not a human robot, that's just a deep sea diver out of water #monsterdon
oop and we done
#Monsterdon
The end?
#Monsterdon
@Zerofactorial @starkraving666 I mean, how else would it justify wearing a breastplate?
hooooooly shit. mst3k's edits made it _better_.
The mummyβs voice actor has clearly changed.
#monsterdon
And it ends with no closure, just like a good #Monsterdon movie should.
Just awful
And we learn, after all this time, the real monster was the accountant who decided to make a clip show.
Another #Monsterdon is in the can!
As always, huge thanks to @Taweret for hosting!
Tonightβs feature , #TheRobotVsTheAztecMummy, released in 1958, was the second feature this year showcasing an Aztec Mummy, though there was remarkably more Mummy in this showing! We also had,
Ritual sacrifice!Flashbacks, and then some flashbacks, to be followed by a few, you know, flashbacks.Mummy shuffle!Hypnotizing! The Bat! No, not that one, the other one.A robot! Epic robot mummy fight!You can tell they only got once chance to film this fight scene because of the way the robot's tin cans get dented whenever he gets ... uh ... hugged, vigorously
This flashback could have been an email. #Monsterdon #RobotVsAztecMummy
