hail the queen of may! #monsterdon

is he FALLING to TEMPTATION? 👀

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

Summersisle understands complementary colors, swag king

#monsterdon

These masks aren’t frightening at all. I’m just not planning on sleeping tonight.

#Monsterdon

Three O'Clock. The Green Dome.

#TheWickerMan #Monsterdon

#monsterdon 🚪

actual bagpipes. movie +3 points #monsterdon

"Good morning Sergeant, how are the blue balls!"
#Monsterdon

One of the best parts of this film is how there's only one moment... ONE where the cop actually knows what's going on. And it's a dooozy. #monsterdon #TheWickerMan

Worst high-speed chase ever. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Oh, my plane has been sabotaged, I’ll go investigate the hostile islanders some more. This cop has NO survival instincts.

I'm sorry these holidays sound far more enjoyable then Christian holidays (especially if you strip out the less Christian elements)
#monsterdon

there is SO much nudity in this film lmfao

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

#monsterdon 55 minutes in we see that Donnie Darko is in fact part of the Wicker Man Universe. Also Christian Copper is just one big fucking pill isn't he.

“You know, when you said ‘let’s bang’, I kinda assumed you meant something other than wall slapping” #monsterdon

This dress represents my high score on Tetris. #Monsterdon

This suddenly feels a lot like Zardoz. STAY INSIDE MY AURA. #monsterdon #wickerman73

Heh - apparently a difference it the cuts here. Some of y'all are on the next morning while I'm watching the cop trying very hard not to have sex through a wall.

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

#Monsterdon Which mask do you think I would wear? #TheWickerMan

#monsterdon Im guessing he's the fool.

i could deal with the dubbing in of her voice, but the dubbing in of the slaps is too much #monsterdon

Been reading about mythology and religions since I was a kid. This movie is amazing and it is jarring that I didn't watch this soon enough. That wig doh... #monsterdon

chasing a may day horse through the streets, this feels like the end of The Prisoner. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Island Pagan Animals, stand and be counted!

I wonder if the innkeeper's daughter is trying to save the cop there. And I wonder if it would have worked.

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

Of COURSE the plane doesn't work, Howie, YOU TOLD THEM YOU WERE GONNA LEAVE -_- #Monsterdon

@Taweret huge fan, please more folk music in everything #monsterdon

And now, time for a nude musical interlude

#Monsterdon

The island's furries are great at sabotage.

#monsterdon

Nobody said anything about a furry convention on May Day. #monsterdon

@Ooze I feel like it should get them some bonus points if their sacrifice is actually named Rowan

#Monsterdon

This isn't your grandparent's jazzercise!

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

oh. so it /is/ actually a village for furries. poor guy really didn't know what he was getting into. #monsterdon

This is the most pent-up man in the entire history of the world.
#monsterdon

whelp furcon's back on

#TheWickerMan #Monsterdon

Me at furry cons at 3am trying to get literally anyone to hook up with me #Monsterdon #WillowsSong

Yeah, my money's still on Howie getting eaten alive here. #Monsterdon

I’ll admit I do like this song. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Respectfully, officer, tonight seems like an exceptionally good night to convert to paganism.

We! Carry! Death! Out of the village! #monsterdon

Wait, is this Donnie Darko now? #monsterdon #wickerman73

That rabbit took a wrong turn at Albuquerque.
#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

Don't think you can develop photos in white light...

#monsterdon
#TheWickerMan

#Monsterdon Cop reads Pagan 101 Exposition to us so we get what’s in store for May Day.

Essentially "Broome, sweep out this trash" 😂

#Monsterdon

Sorry, it's just you're internally reading very loudly. #Monsterdon

Carrying death out of the village, a very valuable skill indeed

#Monsterdon

🎵 Heigh ho. Who is there? No one but me, my dear. Please come say, How do? The things I'll give to you. A stroke as gentle as a feather. (I'll catch a rainbow from the sky and tie the ends together)

Heigh ho. I am here. Am I not young and fair? Please come say, How do? The things I'll show to you. Would you have a wond'rous sight The midday sun at midnight?

Fair maid, white and red, Comb you smooth and stroke your head
(How a maid can milk a bull And every stroke a bucket full) 🎵
#Monsterdon

(Another song hacked apart by the scene, sadly, ruins the meter)

The bulging codpiece on that Fool

#monsterdon Prime Version of Wickerman (1973) 51:00: EastmanKodak would like to remind you to use your ektrachrome responsibly and to not take photographic evidence of your human sacrifices.

#monsterdon thats his toughest policing voice too

@davesdogmaggie That’s not *my* bag! #Monsterdon

Big CJ John Roberts energy from the copper

#monsterdon

Pubic library! #monsterdon #wickerman73

@steggy OMG, that's been wrinkling my brain this whole movie. Thank you for pointing out how I know this guy! #Monsterdon

[tosses hare] i found that in rowan morisson's grave

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

#monsterdon

"Horny Singing Pagans In Your Area"

First British copper who resisted a shag.....

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe I think they didn't invent not telling your enemy exactly what you're going to do until 1975, but don't quote me on that

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Cop: I’m going to tell my boss on all you heathens!

I don’t think he’s thought his cunning plan all the way through.

@trixter gods I know, right?

#TheWickerMan #Monsterdon

poor bnuy 🐇

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

Indulging in some B&E, eh Constable? #Monsterdon

Howie, nobody want to hear you talk about Jesus, this is why you don't have any friends #Monsterdon

Oh no Christopher Lee singing might just turn me a little straight #monsterdon

Grandfather Rasputin?
#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

i'm here for more Christopher Lee Private Concert please. #monsterdon

again, you are threatening the way of life of an entire town right to their face, what do you think is going to happen to you. #monsterdon

Damn Chrissy Lee, you have pipes #Monsterdon

thank god "pagan barbarity" isn't illegal anymore #monsterdon

If you have any questions you would like me to answer please @ me as there are too many posts on the tag for me to keep up with. #monsterdon

He got it good with the "fake biology". Again the contrast of "what seems more stupid? to be a fanatic or this?" #Monsterdon

as the subject of a nation I am personally much cooler than, i relate deeply to chris here #Monsterdon

@paco And right after he was granted permission.

#Monsterdon

perfectly lovely transmutation #monsterdon

Howie, I feel like you're just stupid. If you think they're fucking with you maybe don't TELL THEM WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO. #Monsterdon

Everyone hates that dickhead and gives no quarter (rhetorically).
#Monsterdon

now i know where Prince was taking his fashion cues

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

#Monsterdon ‘It’s not sacrilege if you’re not Christians!’ I think they broke the cop’s brain.

Heh, Pagan Barbarity :D #Monsterdon

Is the island heathen, or pagan? Make up your damn mind, copper. #monsterdon #wickerman73

#monsterdon Wait forget this rabbit meat I want to hear more of this patching and plugging song

This move is an exemplification of the mainstream response to people in the English speaking world at the time daring to suggest that there might be other religions more suited to them than Christianity. They got very upset and hounded many occultists.

#monsterdon

everyone forgets that christopher lee was very briefly in the who

#TheWickerMan #Monsterdon

Christopher Lee showing off his height
#monsterdon

Who remembers The Equalizer? I'm enjoying seeing a young Edward Woodward

#Monsterdon

“I am an enlightened heathen.”

#Monsterdon

Waiter, there's a hare in my grave! #monsterdon

@Taweret They would fit in well on Mastodon #Monsterdon

"I believe that you are supposed to be the detective here" brutal #Monsterdon

slightly sour note as it zooms in on the contents of the coffin #monsterdon

@aprilfollies@mastodon.online Symbolic of how Rowan herself is missing. Hare today, gone tomorrow!

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

Oh but you absolutely can be made a fool of indefinitely #monsterdon

🎵 A maiden did this tinker meet and to him boldly say Oh sure my kettle hath much need, if you will pass my way. She took the tinker by the hand and led him to her door. Says she, my kettle I will show and you can clout it sure.
For patching and plugging is his delight
(His work goes forward day and night)
Fair maid says he, your kettle's cracked, The cause is plainly told. There hath so many nails been drove, Mine own could not take hold. 🎵
#Monsterdon

(Look for "The Tinker of Rye" on YouTube, they cut the song down and you don't want to miss Lee singing)

okay that wooden thing that he opened and pulled the knife out from looks cool as fuck though

#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

"But they're naked!"
"Naturally. It's much to dangerous to jump though fire with clothes on." *trying to stifle laughter*
#Monsterdon #TheWickerMan

"A fool of indefinitely?" Ah, no. But long enough.

#TheWickerMan #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Hare in a coffin, in Rowan’s grave. Symbolism!

'very perplexing for you. what do you think could have happened?'

lmao

#monsterdon

i mean a beautiful hare like that, why not give it a casket? and this mfer desecrates it?

#monsterdon
