"Good luck with your experiment" #thingsiveneversaidtoanyone #monsterdon
Must be quite a challenge to be an OCD hand washer and working a movie ticket counter #monsterdon
Evolution created vocal cords for survival. The Neanderthal who didn't have them all died because they couldn't release their fear. Everyone knows that. It's science!
Hate it when I can't release my fear tensions #monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TheTingler This movie combines all the disability representation into the character of the germaphobic wife... who then just... died?
Oh good she just fainted; I was afraid we had lost her forever.
Itβs just science.
#Monsterdon
i'm sorry sir your wife has come down with a case of the tingles #monsterdon
"She says she never shakes hands."
Funny, I guess I should have noticed that before, being her husband and all.
People's hands do have germs tho #monsterdon
i've stopped shaking people's hands too #Monsterdon
as my hearing started going i started learning to read lips and honestly you'd be really suprised how effective you can get at it #monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TheTingler Randomly, I like the tiny 1950s car the doctor guy drives in. It's like 1950s style... but incongruously small. It's like a vehicle out of the alternate universe where Americans decided small cars were more patriotic.
That's real #ASL on this black & white #Monsterdon movie. Cool. Very progressive for the period.

#Monsterdon #TheTingler I too often bum rides from autopsy doctors; its the most reliable form of public transit in the USA.
I hope this doesn't awaken anything in me β‘π³ #monsterdon
not gonna, ya know, put the body back in the fridge? #monsterdon
All that just to avoid calling an Uber? #Monsterdon
@Taweret Same, I too am questioning the very scientific premise of this film. #monsterdon
imagine going to the autopsy of your dead relative irl and this guy is just giving this speech about fear and a weird spinal thing and calling it "the tingler" #monsterdon
ive never actually felt fear in my spine. is that normal? its usually a sick feeling in the stomach or a metallic taste
Why is the doctor hanging out with the narrative device?
Breaking of the spinal column is caused by your kids stepping on sideway cracks, everyone knows that #monsterdon
Fear can shatter your spine?
Wow. Maybe we shouldn't be watching horror movies.
You know, just in case.
"There's a force inside of us that science knows nothing about." π€ #monsterdon
"screaming at the right time may save your life"
"...can I have a hall pass for the autopsy room, please?"
@bunnyhero
I didn't get mine either. Maybe we were supposed to request them? #Monsterdon @Taweret
The tingler is what makes your cat into a scaredy-cat #monsterdon
I scream, you scream, we all scream for .... The Tingler!
that you for the screaming demonstration, I was confused #monsterdon
@bunnyhero Iβm not even sure how well itβs aged. I am not an objective viewer for this one. But it does have Vincent Price. So thereβs that. #Monsterdon
i only know this movie by its reputation. and i didn't get the tingling devices that i assume @Taweret sent out to the #monsterdon folks
...You put joybuzzers on the seats, didn't you Will? #Monsterdon
I hope @Taweret got the electronic buzzers wired up to everyoneβs seats in time #monsterdon
These intros were so charming. #monsterdon
love a movie that starts with a guy talking directly to the audience #monsterdon
Time to update your filters if you don't want to see #monsterdon content for the next hour and half!
Note to self and whoever else wants it-
The Chuck Tingler:
*Those two sided cup things in every home-bartender set? One of the large side full of blue curaΓ§ao, two large sides of vodka
*one of the small sides of the same implement half full of Luxardo
*shake some bitters into that, don't be shy
*top off with sprite/diet sprite/diet store brand lemon/lime soda
*If there's not enough cherry flavor squirt in some cherry flavored "MIO" for a BLORT, or- black-out rage Tingler #Monsterdon
The perfect dessert snack after a Vincent Price #Monsterdon movie.
"Creep In The Cellar" by The Butthole Surfers. This is a great little video treatment.
@yatsu I don't think I've ever seen a movie that was so much a movie. #Monsterdon
Okay, so like the Tingler's animus is that it suddenly grew three sizes like the grinches heart or something, bear with me here (wtf is blue curaΓ§ao anyway?), and it can now survive without its host so it's trying to awaken other Tinglers so they can do away with their inferior, prone to screaming, human, hosts entirely and live the dream as footlong earwigs... I feel like in the 21st century this would be the start of a whole franchise #Monsterdon
Now we all know that Vincent Price is a screamer #monsterdon #TheTingler
@apLundell i think that predated #monsterdon that was just some of watching together on one of those group watch sites
"So doc, I hear you're researchin' the, uh, whaddya call it, the psychology of fear. Wow. Man, I dunno much about that, but my wife, see, she's crazy about it. Says there's a creature in the lower spine called th', uh, the Tingler. You wouldn't know anything 'bout that, would ya doc?" #Monsterdon
@Taweret Wasn't one of the very first #monsterdon films "Last Man On Earth"?
We could do that one again now that there's more than five of us watching.
I love that film.
@ishiku Love Matinee. <3 #monsterdon #TheTingler
@apLundell all the loose ends, like the monster, fucked off into the sea #monsterdon #TheTingler
That was a fun ride on a loony 50s horror movie that only worked because it was a soap opera full of evil spouses, but mostly because of Vincent Price.
Thanks for another fun #Monsterdon @Taweret
i feel like i missed at least half the #monsterdon posts tonight. that one got crazy
@blogdiva The moral is that capitalism makes you evil #monsterdon
THANK YOU!!
Oh, most excellent commentary, #Monsterdon viewers!
I have to rest now. Exhausted from laughing. This has been too much fun. Don't want to end up on a coroner's table.
Well, maybe catch up on the scroll for 30 minutes. But that's it.
@Taweret,
*Thank You* for the polls and prep for this Occasion! My week would not be the same without it.
well, that was certainly one of the movies of all time. thanks everybody, and good night. don't forget to scream. AAAAAAAAAH
#monsterdon
@bunnyhero @Taweret I'm not mad this one made it to the top of two polls. It was a palate-cleanser #monsterdon

"The next time you're frightened in the dark... Don't scream."
I can hear the smirk on his face in that line.
The movie even ends making me think of stupid sexy Vincent Price's mouth.
#Monsterdon #TheTingler
That was a fun pick! I'll watch Vincent Price ham it up anytime. Goodnight , Monster people. #Monsterdon
What happened to those two nosy kids crazy in love? I want to know #monsterdon
The Tingler is animating her corpse? Well this just got even more fucked up.
#Monsterdon #TheTingler
so I take it as read that the Tingler itself fucked off into the sea
I probably wouldn't have made it through the first ten minutes of The Tingler if it wasn't for #monsterdon
Thanks, I guess.
"The next time you're frightened in the dark, don't scream... tingle!" #monsterdon
thanks for the stimulating #Monsterdon this week @Taweret even though I didn't have enough time to electrify my sectional for the occasion it was still fantastic!
They're just lucky they live in a town without law enforcement, gotta say #monsterdon
"Alright. Give me the Tingler now."
Well that's my new foreplay line.
#Monsterdon #TheTingler
@strangefour "I'm ready for my close-up" #monsterdon
that reminds me, i left my tingler on the charger
wow that one ends about as fast as a toho film, i approve tho'
that was a good one thanks everybody #monsterdon
Oh don't worry, Vince, I won't. :P #Monsterdon
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!
Fun movie y'all! ^_^
#monsterdon
so wait, that's it? that's as bad as any of those Godzilla movies, jeez. #monsterdon
I learnded my lesson Mister Price! I'm gonna scream all the time now! #monsterdon
@Zerofactorial like lego, like her spine, whatever #monsterdon #TheTingler
AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!
oh no, i KNOW i have a tingler of my own, but it's not really something we blurt out in polite society. #monsterdon
The projectionist has survived the monster attack. We now return to the rest of The TIngler.
#Monsterdon #TheTingler
How did he put the Tingler back in so fast? Does it just snap back on like Lego? #monsterdon
@cheribaker
Yes, yes ... and is it just me or do women in this movie need to be a bit careful around the men?
Give me the tingler now :bloblewd:β #monsterdon
wife revenge wife revenge wife revenge #monsterdon
Whoops, Ollie's about to get tingled himself :D #Monsterdon
ill simply tell the police you made the color red appear somehow to cause a giant centipede to kill your wife
#monsterdon don
Bye Ollie #Monsterdon
"Oh I'm not blaming you for me killing my wife after you sent her on a bad accident trip..." #monsterdon #TheTingler
We will resume the movie. Forget everything that just happened. Maybe go to the concession stand. Yes, that's right. Have some popcorn! And JujyFruits, something healthful.
SCREAM
#Monsterdon #TheTingler
Just go back to casually watching the movie, like we didn't all almost die from fear #monsterdon #TheTingler
"sorry i killed my wife" #monsterdon
That's real dedication from the film guy. Shrug off almost getting killed by a lobtrostity. The show must go on!
"Scream for ice cream. Visit the concessions stand" #monsterdon
Vincent Price and His Boyfriend Attempt A Surgery, film at eleven. #monsterdon
We will now resume poking people in the theatre with broomsticks #Monsterdon
aAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #monsterdon
The projectionist is very calm about this.
#Monsterdon
