@strangefour And this one's supposed to be good
We've had a number of #monsterdon movies take place in New Mexico, haven't we?
@wohali i keep thinking they're saying "tencent" #monsterdon
Drank his breakfast? What's wrong with coffee for breakfast?
I too like dolls with the top of their head chewed off.
#Monsterdon #Them(1954)
#monsterdon Obviously this is a lost prequel/followup to the Coleman Francis trilogy. The Hobbit to it's LoTR.
The little girl is awestruck with the wonder of the giant ants!
10-4 hadn’t been invented yet FYI. #Monsterdon
nice shots of the plane flying. looks like the real thing!
#monsterdon
Oh no. The child in the movie is already bored of the movie. We're in trouble aren't we?

Not speaking to the cops. Girl knows her shit. #monsterdon
We are all the little girl.
IT'S ALWAYS SHUT THE FUCK UP FRIDAY
Little girl knows ACAB #monsterdon
That girl knows the game. Do NOT talk to police.

This girl has seen some shit.

This evening's #monsterdon starts with a very special cameo:
"HEY KIDS IT'S PETEY THE PLANE: Always remember don't pour acid in other peoples parachutes BYE BYE"
little girl knows not to talk to cops #monsterdon
That kid and that baby doll have both seen some s**t. #Monsterdon #THEM
Little girl has a thousand yard stare. That's not ominous surely. Maybe she's a Vietnam vet?
#Monsterdon #Them1954
I tend to associate mysterious abandoned children with a different kind of movie.
Creepy kid alert #monsterdon
Ten ten! and his dog Snowy! #Monsterdon

She seems neurotypical #monsterdon

It's a kid! Quickly, dive-bomb her!
Aww sheesh, movie. ACAB

🐜 EUSOCIAL TRIVIA 🐜
Studio executives cut the budget midstream. The original movie was supposed to be in color and in 3D. You will see vestiges of color in the titles and of 3D planning in the film.
Rotten Tomatoes score: 93% (2021)
Speed limit enforced by aircraft, apparently.
I like a soundtrack that gives its all from the get-go
So, Monsterdon is a fediverse movie watch together event that starts at 9PM EST every Sunday. We queue up the movie on whatever streaming service or preferred media format, and at 9PM every pushes play at the same time and we start commenting and heckling along with the movie. :muppets_waldorf: :muppets_statler: It helps to subscribe to the #monsterdon hashtag so you'll get all posts of people participating.
The movies are picked every Monday under the # MonsterdonAlert with a vote. These events are organized by @Taweret(@)octodon.social
This week we're watching : Them!
Here's a link to watch along too: https://tubitv.com/movies/100028504/them?start=true&tracking=google-feed&utm_source=google-feed
