There's some weird bird calls
#Monsterdon π !π !π ! π₯ π±
PINCERS and FUZZY FUZZY ANTENNAES sorry I'm shouting but it's exciting
Don't taunt the scientists sargent!
What did that ant do to you? Did you try to center its needs and wants instead of yours? No, you just killed it.
#Monsterdon
#Monsterdon
What a career - giant ants and then tribbles.
@CactuarJoe Seems unlikely in 1954. #Monsterdon
"Probably caused by lingering radiation." Umm.. no not really, but go on. #Monsterdon #THEM
"...notice it's odor?"
"Yeah ..."
"Oh, I was just joking. That's not from the ant."
@rallias π€¦ π π
I gotta say the grasshoppers from The Beginning of the End were a lot more badass than these guys. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon campanotus vicinus?
"We may be witnesses to a biblical prophesy come true"
They didn't mention Giant Ants buddy....
Ah the stridulation. So strident.
@brooke Amazing call back. I appreciate you. #monsterdon #them
I dunno, those eyes would be good targets too and larger than the antennae #monsterdon
#Monsterdon π !π !π ! π₯ π±
OK but have you ever tried walking through sand in high heeled shoes because it's not easy and she's making it look easy.
Silence of the Ants #monsterdon
They're heeeeeeere #Monsterdon
the ant just went "uuhhhuughhhh!" #monsterdon
πππππππππππ!!!
#Monsterdon
Ooh that big ant moves pretty good for a prop
only a good ant with a #HighPitchedStridulation can stop a bad cop with a gun
poor ant, he just wanted to say (HIGH PITCH STRIDULATIONS). #monsterdon
Giant ant? Giant land lobster, more like. Good eatin' on one that size!
Just have to rinse out all the formic acid.
#Monsterdon i just carry tommy guns around itβs cool
Are guns finally useful? Wow
#Monsterdon
Okay, for 1954, this giant ant looks pretty good.
"..oh wait, just remembered that I keep a machine gun in the cop car."
Twenty-eight minutes in, and we have a giant ant!
We have antsign the likes of which God has never seen #monsterdon
leave the ant alone!!
#Monsterdon get the antenny! get the antenny!!
I had to turn down the volume on my laptop. The high pitched noises were too much.
#monsterdon If Time Team has taught me anything that stone circle had a ritual purpose.
Oh wow 1/2h in and we got a big ole monster, this is a good one compared to some of our movies!
"Thatβs the B feature, sir. This is Them!"
#monsterdon
GIANT ANT! #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon oh goddamn oh shitfuvk
why send your daughter to find monstrous ants alone during a sandstorm?
#monsterdon
AND WE HAVE BUG PUPPET! #Monsterdon
THEM!!!
Although whoops, terrible for running in the sand dunes. Especially with those shoes.
#Monsterdon that sound is super annoying tho omg. im shocked my birds havent spooked
#Monsterdon π !π !π ! π₯ π±
Ah, the 'Miss' vs 'Dr' convo finally happened, but was quickly followed up by the 'why don't we talk English then we'll understand each other' BS
ππππππππππ
oh no. Watch out Pat! #monsterdon
Hey sexy science lady! don't wander off into the dust storm by yourself with all that stridulation going on!
WE HAVE ANTS BABEYYYY #monsterdon
did she just brush sand off a print in the sand with her hand? how the fuck does that work? #monsterdon
uh... #monsterdon
How is this windstorm not blowing the ant prints away? Serious aeolian environment here
HI HAVE YOU SEEN MY GOGGLES I THINK I LEFT THEM HERE SOMEWHERE
Them! From There!
#Monsterdon i am in love with these sandstorm goggles
"Oh yeah, something horrible happened here. Probably a threat to human life as a whole. Anyway, let's send the lady off on her own." #Monsterdon
is that fedora stapled to his head #Monsterdon
Nationwide panics were really in style in the 50s, so I guess that makes more sense
Wait, is he flirting with the doc?
#Monsterdon #Them(1954)
Ethel Mermacologist?
#Monsterdon #Them
In 2025, those will be the only cool glasses style.
Oh they are just pronoun fishing all over the place, aren't they? Them, it...
I wonder what formic acid smells like.
Also, ants and even giant ants are legitimately terrifying
Damn her skirt suit really is spectacular π€©
This gag where the eggheads won't mention the word for what they're thinking about because they're not scientific 100% sure is annoying.
#monsterdon
This is the most perfunctory romance in an ant-related sci fi movie I've seen since I saw Ant Man like three months ago #monsterdon
So you can buy formic acid in a drug store?
Old doctor sounds like Inconceivable.
"THEM! THEM!" That's the name of the show! #Monsterdon
"I want to know what this It is!" That's another film. You're in THEM. #Monsterdon #THEM
so why didn't that print get covered up? #monsterdon
Come on, tell us before you get killed and we don't get to learn.
Daddy doctor has tested positive?
#Monsterdon #Them
You know they are smart because they speak Metric instead of English #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon there is no way that print in the sand would last 30 sec in this wind
"if calling me by my earned title bothers you, just call me by my first name in a time where that was a more personal, informal address" #monsterdon
Just going to make children cry and then run away what a old fart
You know he's a good scientist because he's measuring in centimeters!
"If the doctor bothers you why don't you call me Pat"
Why don't you never call me again if you can't handle my education.
CENTIMETRES??? What kind of foreign doctor IS this?! In 195x?
I understand the glasses, but no masks? How they can talk without chewing sand?
#monsterdon
The Goggles, they do noth- Oh, actually they work quite well, thank you.
Adjusting someone's glasses is absolutely a romantic gesture and you can't convince me otherwise. I'm here for the scientist/police officer side plot!
If the doctor bothers you, why don't you cram your goggles up your ass?
Formic acid AKA Ant-acid #Monsterdon
Looking like a devo music video with these goggles #monsterdon
Trying to give that kid a shot of formic acid is a bad idea doc. Maybe start her on tequila or something weaker.
#Monsterdon #Them
The googles... they do something
"...what would turn carnivorous?"
"My father.."
"What?"
Quick thinking on that Tommy gun there.
wonder if him adjusting Dr Doofus's glasses was in the script... #monsterdon
I do want to see White Sands sometime #monsterdon
Them, 1954. An early documentary about non-binary folx.
Chirst, you have explained the simple things to eggheads. #monsterdon
A child going from 0 to 60 in nothing flat is ... bad, right
Yes! Yes!! This better!!
#Monsterdon
That scream was a real jump scare for me. Was not expecting it at all.
