@Infoseepage who did it better?

For those of you scrolling through your timeline, you're about to hit a big mass of Monsterdon postings about The The Wrestling Women vs. the Aztec Mummy (1964).

Should you not wish to read through them, here's how to filter them out, at least on the web browser:
1) right click on the gears & open in a new tab
2) choose "Filters" then "Add New Filter"
3) give the filter a title, check all boxes under contexts, choose hide completely and put "#Monsterdon" in the keyword box.
4) Click on "Save New Filter"

... and you're done.

So I forgot, what happened with Mao again? #monsterdon

Unbeaten

#Monsterdon

@Lazarou Girl is sitting there wearing this absurd navy sailor hat and Shelley is like "girl, don't even try. I got this one by a mile."

#monsterdon

That was certainly a cursed movie! Mummy's curse? Maybe, who's to say! We had

- cursed coreography
- cursed pacing
- cursed exposition
- and a cursed mummy fight that didn't happen

Thanks to @Taweret for organising and i'm looking forward to checking out a replay on https://monsterdon-replay.gerlach.dev/

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. 👍

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! 🤦‍♂️
#TheWrestlingWomenVsTheAztecMummy

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!

#Monsterdon

Whoo what a stinker. Thanks @Taweret #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummies #Monsterdon

We need to have a "Hats of Monsterdon" gallery somewhere.

#monsterdon

Rats. Got caught up in other things and completely forgot #Monsterdon

@Taweret The kitchen? #CantTakeMeAnywhere #Monsterdon

@r343l Yes, the judo sisters were not well-behaved in the ring. One or the other of them kicked/punched the ref at least twice. #Monsterdon #TheWrestlingWomenVsTheAztecMummy

@hollie
Glad you liked it and hope to see you often!!

#Monsterdon

The movie has been over for ten minutes and I'm still sitting here waiting for the wrestling women to wrestle the mummy. It's going to happen, right?

#monsterdon

I'm having a huge case of FOMO
What's going on!?
#Monsterdon

a mi me encantan esos carros. yo quiero uno de esos carros.

#Monsterdon #LuchadorasVMomiaAzteca

@Copperplate I will buy the boots.

#Monsterdon

@hollie Woohoo, welcome to the "club"! It is a wonderful thing to look forward to. See you next week!

#Monsterdon

@billyjoebowers someoen in this party has been dungeoning before

#monsterdon

@Taweret that was the REAL mystery of this #Monsterdon not all that Codex chicanery

@Taweret
Re-enactors maybe? Feels like a group that would exist.
#Monsterdon

@raindrops_and_roses @fabio Fortunately when watching along with the #Monsterdon feed you can still have a good experience watching a truly terrible movie

Do we know what happened to Prince Fujiyama's gangster crew? including the two judo ladies? Seems like they took an early exit #monsterdon

@moira @steggy @hollie
Godmoster was worse... kinda. It was more confusing and had more interesting batshit scenes.
This just had shitty bat scenes. I guess it is a tough call which is worse.
#Monsterdon

la Chela es cojuda, yéndose así por la pirámide… y se desapareció.

¿cuanto apuestas que la momia hace a la Chela su nueva Xotchl?

#Monsterdon #LuchadorasVMomiaAzteca

🦖 #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.

@Louisa ooooooooooo is _that_ it?

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

@Louisa or indeed mummy. #monsterdon

That's IT?!?!?

I really wanted mummy wrestling.

There needs to be a remake.

#monsterdon
#WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

@georgieboy It seems like a stretch to call it a "crew" even

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon fucked off into the pyramid collapse

wild :D

@Crazypedia isn't that technically what the Aztec ancients did too though?

#Monsterdon

@steggy @jsadow@c18.masto.host @hollie MORE COHERENT THAN THIS

barely

i think

and MUCH FEWER SCENES SHOT IN A LITERAL CLOSET. There.

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

#Monsterdon hmm they didn't really deliver on the wrestling women actually fighting the mummy. they sorta... helped hold him down for a bit.

#monsterdon okay well the end bye good night see ya

So we did get a spider movie this week after all. Satisfied? #monsterdon

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

@jsadow @hollie *cough* Godmonster of Indian Flats *cough*

#Monsterdon

i need a drink after that deep hurting #monsterdon

This was almost Manos, The Hands Of Fate levels of bad #monsterdon

No don't shuffle through dark corridors in badly lit sound studios, go back and wrestle that mummy

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

#Monsterdon "he's a mummy again" *smdh*

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.

#monsterdon

Wait already chained to a pillar? The wrestling happened off screen!? Nooooo!

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

@jonny only two questions? #Monsterdon

@Newpa_Hasai I guess the annoying Tommy is this movie's Renfield? #monsterdon

severely disappoint

no mummy rasslin'

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

#Monsterdon

So they leave the breastplate. And nothing really happened in this movie. The end #monsterdon

@msh You must go to the wrong kind of parties.

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe @yatsu honestly if they'd wrestled the mummy it woulda been some OSHA violation

basically you don't wanna breathe that mummy shit

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

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

#Monsterdon

okay the wrestle women came in to save them but how how are they supposed to wrestle a bat?

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

#monsterdon That was an ending lacking any women vs mummy wrestling.

#Monsterdon "i brought you some stew"

Somebody get Tezomoc a coffee, he looks absolutely wasted #monsterdon

¿polvo piramidal?
¿la ína?
¿caspa?

#Monsterdon #LuchadorasVMomiaAzteca

This is why in old school dungeon crawling, you had a dedicated mapper.

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

They spent more time wrestling hokey Asian stereotypes than they spent even LOOKING at a mummy, I demand a recount D:< #Monsterdon

Okay I'll give him points for shooting the knife out of his hand instead of shooting The Mummy

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

Well, that was a movie in which the action implied by the title never actually happened. 😂 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!

#Monsterdon Tommy lost Charlotte in the pyramid, so he ran off like a proper man I guess? This is what Woke has done to us!

(P.S. Pretty sure Woke had nothing to do with that)
#TheWrestlingWomenVsTheAztecMummy

No one fucked off into the sea. We didn't even get the wrestling women going to the beach randomly for a scene.
This movie was kinda bad. But not bad bad? Good for riffing atleast.
#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomen #AztecMummy

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.

#Monsterdon

Love how the sun is setting over the same terrain where it rose.

Kind of like it was run backwards.

#monsterdon
#WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

So ends another #Monsterdon. Our thanks to @Taweret for hosting (and for all of you who make the #Monsterdon family), and remember #Monsterdoners: You brought us here for nothing!

#monsterdon Wow. This mummy can turn into a bat AND a spider.

@catzilla At least the other women got some wardrobe changes in!

#monsterdon

@hollie I have not watched every #Monsterdon by any means but that was by far the worst one I have watched.

Actually good suspense with the menacing footsteps routine

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

I guess to be fair, we were promised 1) wrestling women (which we got) and 2) an Aztec mummy (which we also got). And a bonus bat/spider as well!

#monsterdon

@georgieboy
Nepotism? #monsterdon

The torrent from archive.org has failed me again today, it always takes 200% to download as long as I think it will. So I'm stuck with ads every week #monsterdon

Poor Charlotte has been wearing stiletto pumps all day, that is the real monster #monsterdon

THE END. . .
or is it!
It is!!
#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomen #AztecMummy

@Taweret you took the words right out of my mouth

word

one word

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Not sure why they tried shooting guns again. But wrestling soon??

#Monsterdon c'mon c'mon westle the mummy

@CactuarJoe i demand a refund. #monsterdon

Charlotte NEEDS a rabies shot now!
#monsterdon

@yatsu I'll get the kindling. #Monsterdon

WELP that is certainly a thing that we just watched, though I hesitate to call it a movie. 🤣

#Monsterdon

That mommy sounds like me waking up

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

@aburka I hope not, I'd send them back as punishment

#Monsterdon

We either ran out of script or film (or both). Finis.

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

That was... abrupt

Thanks @Taweret for setting things up!

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe fair point well argued

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

Mummy honey no! That's a load bearing pillar!
#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomen #AztecMummy

#Monsterdon i don't quite know why the mummy is a vampire, but whatever :D

Thanks so much to @Taweret for hosting Monsterdon, and to @cheribaker for the bingo card that I didn’t mark a single square on this time (probably my fault), and everyone else for making this interesting and awesome!

#Monsterdon

@paco they are just trimming his claws
