Twins of Evil

Okay, so this seemed … not very good. I will say that they got some mileage out of doing the β€œno reflection” trick with twins (and the convoluted twin-swapping at the end). The score was a bit aggressive at times (and seemed to think the witch hunters were better people than the screenplay did), but was otherwise decent. And there was some decent scenery chewing.

Really, though, it was pretty forgettable as a vampire sexploitation film. #monsterdon

@floatybirb I feel like Floaty Birb is the re-incarnation of the guy who wrote the most evil condensations of movie premises for the San Francisco news paper TV schedules back in the 70s and 80s. #monsterdon

I think all this movie did was conclusively establish that the "Twins of Evil" were the boobs and not the girls πŸ˜•

Well, anyway, the commentary delivers as always. Thanks everyone for posting and thanks @Taweret for organizing!

I think we were supposed to view Gustav as an empathetic character at the end, and by that point, I was waiting for him to realize that he was the baddie (or one of them, at least). He never really had that realization, but I still think they wanted us to view him as the good guy in the end. #Monsterdon

Theydies and gentlethem, we wrap another #monsterdon with the knowledge that you can tell twins apart by the gooeyness of their lips. The ones on their face anyway.

As always, don't blame @Taweret, this is a functioning democracy, and we fucking did this to ourselves. If you're like me, you voted for the coolest name, and now we all suffer for it. #monsterdon #twinsofevil

It just goes to show you: name one twin after the mother of Jesus and the other after a word meaning peace, and the peace one will become evil

The moral: name both your twins Maria

in order for vampirism to be a "trade" where you give your soul up to the devil you have to get something in return. they got no powers, it doesn't seem like they are doing any sort of freaky vampire stuff with each other, they just get the teeth and lose their reflection #monsterdon

@paco Now I'm thinking of someone in the Buffyverse stabbing Spike nowhere near the heart, and he would just sigh, take the stake out, and impatiently explain how you properly kill a vampire before then biting the person

(not a real scene AFAIK but it would be totally in character)

Joachim had a real shot at highest body count in this vampire movie, for a second there.

But then he got his ketchup spilled.

"GOD IS WITH OUR CAUSE"

also we finally took some goddamn advice about how to do this thing with a modicum of effectiveness! Let's go! We've got a low percent chance of success now! #Monsterdon

What!!! I was 100% sure the strategic undressing cutaway, and the silhouette nudity, meant no ACTUAL nudity in this movie, and now we're seeing crucifix boob-burns!!
