so this is a weird Wicker Man bookend or what?

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

It took Wicker man almost two hours to get to this. #monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

Nice of them to rip her shirt a little like that. Lots of Witchfinders don't prep the scene like that. #Monsterdon

i'm going to be late getting home tonight, hence i'm watching part of the movie early (3:30pm ET) and scheduling to be in sync with the actual event! #monsterdon

It makes my little heart so proud to have a Hammer film for #Monsterdon and I love that we do this together.

Is that the Admiral from Star Wars that they resurrected? #Monsterdon

sir, whatever you get, you deserve. why would you go outside when your Elvira Wore It Better wife seems so disturbed. #monsterdon

Peter Cushing selling oatmeal door to door. #monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

Cleavage? You’re a witch. #Monsterdon

Peter Cushing, followed by a man banging two coconut shells together... #Monsterdon

The ~~gong~~ ~~hammer~~ Twins of Evil

#monsterdon

Oh, it's The Gong Show? #monsterdon #twinsofevil

We have gong sign! And I imagine Tom Servo now asking, "Why don't more movies start with gongs these days?"

#Monsterdon

#MonsterdonAlert

#monsterdon

GO GO GO!!!!

Double your pleasure, double your fun ... or something like that. Time for Twins of Evil!

@dirtyoldtown Seems like the axe grinder stays busy, too

#monsterdon

@c0debabe It was an art film, kind of #monsterdon

@c0debabe TWINS OF EVIL! 1971!

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@c0debabe Boobarella, Vampire edition. #monsterdon

@moira @YsengrinWolf @Taweret Anyone with one of those would I think have to be diligent to avoid tooth decay and pyorrhea #monsterdon

@liferstate OMG! #monsterdon

I'm reading that "Twins of Evil" is the third film in a vampire movie trilogy. Sounds like some more #Monsterdon material.

Also the lead twin actresses were Playboy Playmates.

@RobynGoodfellow ..."Here in fair Vagi-" *hit by bricks* #monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow okay that's it

get out of my snack bar you villain

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

Wait... WAIT! Is it too late for "It was the breast of times, it was the worst of times?" #monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

Well, that was very bad, but somehow still very entertaining. Great if not period costume work, lots of cleavage, two evil guys all good stuff. Thanks @Taweret ! #monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@Taweret Chalk it up to the wisdom of crowds #monsterdon

anyway looks like the lobby is slowing down so good job everybody and thanks to @Taweret as always for hosting

snack bar's still open but watch out for last call if you want anything to eat on your way out

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@diazona No. But a squid can.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire_squid
#monsterdon

@YsengrinWolf @Taweret still needed vampire vagina dentata

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@Crazypedia I mean, Matt Berry *is* a vampire on another show, so… #Monsterdon

Thanks to @Taweret for capping off a vampire weekend for us fans of #monsterdon

@diazona

Oh, you just wait till he gets there! There'll be Hell to pay!!! You'll be sorry!

#Monsterdon 👯 #TwinsOfEvil

@diazona fangs are for sucking blood, suckers are for, well, sucking, so an octopus vampire would suck through every sucker, right? so i meant suckers.

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

The wikipedia page for cinematographer Dick Bush has a god-tier disambiguation note. #Monsterdon

@ramsey @catzilla Exactly. If it were actually _in the script_, he'd even be _over_playing it. But since it's not, it's the kind of play needed to get it across.

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@Crazypedia No can do-sville, babydoll

#monsterdon

@moira @catzilla I picked up on that, too. You can see it in his eyes, and it looks like he’s trying to redeem himself. #Monsterdon

@strangefour He has hubba hubba vision #monsterdon

@diazona every sucker turns into, well

that thing would take down a sperm whale in like three point eight seconds

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

...could an octopus be a vampire

#Monsterdon

@floatybirb that can't be pleasant, i mean, watching a big chunk of your skin kind of spin around in place

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@catzilla He really was putting in a legitimate performance. He's trying to imply through acting that Vile realised towards the end that he was also the bad guy, even though it's not really in the script, and I salute him for it.

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

ol' Count Meltyface #monsterdon

@Infoseepage @strangefour I remember a company in midtown Manhattan that sold used props, I don't know whether it was to the public or to other film producers #monsterdon

That was definitely a movie #monsterdon

Now that was Definitely not through the heart. #monsterdon

The way to root out evil is to, uh... nip it in the bud. 😃 #monsterdon

@paco Wondering how many other #monsterdon themed movies have been made with Playboy models. For historical curiosity

“Quality” fight choreography #monsterdon

@strangefour Yeah... No #monsterdon

@moira That was my intent. #Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie (we thank you for your service of setting that up)

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@davesdogmaggie much like the men who directed them

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

thanks @Taweret@octodon.social for hosting & to everyone for the posts!

sleep tight & may your dreams be full of frilly shirts and/or sheer nightgowns and/or over-the-top hats
#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

So how's Maria going to explain this to the folks back home when she gets there solo? Awkward #monsterdon

Uughhgaaahh the fake blood got in my eyes! #monsterdon

Another great #Monsterdon! Thanks @Taweret and everyone!

wouldst thou like to live ... leathery?

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@strangefour TBH as part of #Monsterdon I would love to see a vampire clown

Well first his plan was to slap her but then he thought, wait, I've got a tunnel! And that was his second plan. The point of the first plan? None. #monsterdon

Tubi wants to play Vampire Circus next? That doesn't sound like a good title. I do not want to see a vampire clown.
#Monsterdon #TwinsofEvil

@strangefour That was a great moment in a very uneven film. #monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

The moral of the story is that nice young ladies from Venice can't be expected to pick up on all the local customs without a proper orientation first, preferably with diagrams and mnemonics, so if you just leave it up to chance you may be disappointed #monsterdon

@ramsey Huh. I guess I can kind of see how that may have been the intent, but if so, mission failed

#Monsterdon

As always, thanks for a fun time at #monsterdon, @Taweret!

And back to the Barbie font for the happy ending! #Monsterdon

@brooke Exactly! You don’t *burn* them! You stake them through the heart, for goodness sake! #Monsterdon

Virtue is measured in sparks. #monsterdon

#monsterdon so this isn't a Mike Hammer franchise film then...

I wanted to axe you about your back! #Monsterdon (I'm sorry someone may have tooted this, the feed was MOVING tonight)

oh, hey, both men did in fact lose the movie! Wahoo!

#Monsterdon

Hooray Gustav is double dead. Long live the also horrible vampire... oh never mind. Well maybe. Kinda missed his heart there.
#Monsterdon #TwinsofEvil

More like #BOOBSTERDON tonight. 😆
#MONSTERDON

I told you this was going to be the best #Monsterdon ever.

I guess in the General Metropolitan Area of the Heart was good enough

THE END

Do was creepy preacher man truly redeemed by his Final Act? I dunno the Vampires seemed to be the most likeable lot in this one but I am kinda odd myself

Thanks for another fabulous #Monsterdon @Taweret ! It was actually pretty good relatively speaking... I would watch it again for #Mastoween

I keep forgetting that older movies like this have no wrap up they just hit their Climax and it's over, roll credits

#Monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

The ruby slipper! #Monsterdon

@Infoseepage Maybe they can only come out during daylight hours on Taco Tuesdays #monsterdon

Damn, Gustav is GOOD on this beheading stuff!
#monsterdon

tbh i love how abruptly a lot of these old movies end ​:BlobCat_SmilingOpenMouth:​
#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@diazona Sequel, like "Threesome of Evil"? #monsterdon

@SeanAloysiusOBrien

If you're reading this, you're at the tail end of a long stream of posts on the feed about #Monsterdon, a fediverse community movie-watching event. This week we watched TWINS OF EVIL (1971). See the post at the top of this thread for more info:

https://hachyderm.io/@SnoopJ/111004128276431553

I think the main lesson we can all take from this film is, if you're a woman you're only allowed to have agency if you're evil. So go out there and vamp it up, ladies, you've got nothing to lose :D #Monsterdon

Ah, poor Gustav. But Anton got the Count!
#MONSTERDON

(i would watch a re-write where Frieda becomes vampire with the Count, Maria becomes vampire hunter with Anton, Gustav can still die at the hands of the Count and Anton spears him, but Maria vs Frieda in the cave with Maria Victorious could be a legit heart-wrenching scene. in a better movie, of course.) #monsterdon

Definitely good sets, definitely good both villains died, good luck to Anton at trying to reform the Brotherhood from the inside, good lack of denouement, sure hope nobody minds the Emperor sending in troops to kill everyone in the village in retaliation.

#monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

Did the emperor end up sending his troops in to burn the village after all then?

#Monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

@Sorl

She uses boobs out to break the ice.

#Monsterdon 👯 #TwinsOfEvil

They said a few times that the Duke "protected the village".

I wonder how. He had no army or palace guard. #Monsterdon

Reading #Monsterdon tonight and there's a Tinder joke just lying around here, waiting to be picked up.

THE END

"Grr... argh...."

Thanks @Taweret ! #monsterdon

Such a good movie! Seen it a couple times over the years, but this was the 1st time I picked up on the Marxist angle of it all...

Thanks everyone for watching along! Thanks @Taweret for hosting! Have a great week & see you next Sunday!

#monsterdon

@SeanAloysiusOBrien Sequel time!

#Monsterdon

Do Elon next

#Monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil

And, in true #monsterdon fashion, the idea of denouement is simply absurd. Stab the monster, monster dies, credits!

And Done. Needed more cephalopod harpsichord if you ask me. Thanks again to @Taweret for hosting. That one left a bitter taste. #monsterdon #TwinsOfEvil
