I like that the Aztec mummy turned out to be a little bit vigilante, cleaning up the streets of those Black Dragon gangsters who were terrorizing Mexico City. πŸ‘

And where were the police? Chillin' in their safe house, completely missing large obvious surveillance equipment monitoring them, undoubtedly distracted from hanging with the attractive Amazon wrestlers, when not getting the snot beat out of them by lady judo masters! πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

I feel like I could go for a #monsterdon movie where the title characters eff off into the sea, because I just miss the feeling that makes. But I don't think I'll have a chance to select one any time soon

Question for other #Monsterdon fans - do we have a Letterboxd list of all the movies we’ve seen? Or a list somewhere, with dates?

It would be really appreciated!

I think I'll give this movie 2/5 Wrestling Mummies. I was a tad bit disappointed, as I thought the combination of "Aztecs", "Mummies" and "Presumably Muscular Wrestling Women" was an unbeatable combination, but the execution was a bit lacking.

The best character was the mummy in bat form, because it went "squeak". The worst character was the writer who forgot to follow up on all the plot threads.

πŸ¦– #MONSTERDON GOODBYE!🎞️

Thank you @Taweret for hosting this genre-tossing specious spectacle!
...and thanks to @cheribaker for a historically significant Bingo card! I saw Full or Half Nelson on there, but I think you missed Major Nelson.

And to all you Intellectual Amazons of the Real Time Film Analysis Squad: This is possibly my favorite event so far this year. It had everything - whether it belonged or not - and you caught it all.

This was certainly the worst #monsterdon I have seen! Wow! Good job everyone keeping it fun! It made no sense whatsoever! It didn’t even deliver Luchadoras vs The Mummy as it promised!

But thanks to you I had lots of fun

Well that was a movie I guess, had a mummy (eventually) and some women wrestlers, and some horrible cultural stereotyping and stuff.

And there were others in the series I hear. So that says something. Though what that is I’m unsure.

Still, I’ll likely tune in again next week.

You could easily simplify this plot like:

Archaeologists are being murdered while researching the pyramid (and the murders seem... supernatural)

Our squad of ragtag professors & wrestlers & cops? try to get to the bottom of it, while occasionally wrestling

Then all the Aztec stuff (and also the mummy was killing the archaeologists out of spite), you don't need the Black Dragon gang and you can have just as much women wrestling, which was obviously the real draw of the movie

Well, that was a movie in which the action implied by the title never actually happened. πŸ˜‚ But it was a lot of fun watching everyone here freak out about the mummy also being a vampire. Good night, #monsterdon!

Well just like last night's boxing extravaganza the main event is the biggest letdown and the ladies' matches were the highlight.

THE END

This one had everything you could ask for in a #Monsterdon evening. Lucha Libre Ladies, cringy Asian cosplay, ersatz archaeology, a mummy that was ALSO a vampire, and an especially abrupt ending! I am both confused and amused!

Thanks @Taweret for another fine one!

Hahahaha my air filter and living room light are set to go off at 9:30, and it happened right as the movie was over. I thought we had a power outage for a sec! SPOOKY! Nah. Just the internet of things.

Now to find something to do for TWO HOURS before I go to the Amtrak station.... is there a sequel? 🀣🀣

Night, all.
