in the next scene, Mr. Oats is at a convention of puritanical inquisitors (also dressed like quaker oats guy) who meet in front of a giant cross like most republicans. They complain about devil worshippers in the community and Mr. Oats says that we should... burn them! They all shout at this statement in celebration.

One guy explains that there's a crazy cat lady in the woods who lives isn't married, so they decide she's a witch and they need to harass her.

#Monsterdon This scene is where the film lost me- I thought maybe Anton was going to be the hero but then he goes and tells Peter Cushing you can just stake the pretty sex havers instead of burning them and it's SO MUCH MORE EFFICIENT. Souls directly to heaven, you say? You can almost hear the gears turning at that point.

The name Dick Bush doesn't faze me. Back in the day I learned how to edit tape-to-tape video from a guy who went by Dick Wood.

I mean, nobody's *named* Dick, it's a shortened form of Richard. And before you ask, the videos were of church services, for public access TV.

@apLundell exactly why i am like "flee to the next town as soon as you're suspected" because you have eternal life you have a shitload of time to strategize and get buff and make a system of lures and pulleys and trapdoors and whatnot. getting spear javelined to the chest is a rookie move #monsterdon

If the Count in tonight's film had been smarter, he probably would have asked if being a vampire is so great, why was the countess laying dormant in the basement waiting for a drop of blood to revive her? #Monsterdon

Better than I was expecting it to be! Thank you, @Taweret for an enjoyable film!

Most memorable scene: the unexpected decapitation. Woo, Peter Cushing! Nice swing!

2nd place: Count Karstein and Mircalla having sex on a bearskin rug ... she reaches behind her head, gropes for a lit candlestick ... is she going to bash his brains out? Nope, she's stroking the candlestick off.

πŸ¦– #MONSTERDON Goodbye

Tonight, the Real Time Film Analysis Squad had more comments on 'Dick Bush' than other watch parties' full commentary. And I really don't want to think about whether that is good or bad.

But THANKS to @Taweret for hosting this film that made me double take.
and to @cheribaker for the Bingo card. Got a bunch but no row 😒

🚨 Also, everyone, GET YOUR GEAR if you can!!! Shirts, mugs, more!!

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.
