First attempt at joining in on #monsterdon at all, and already we’re…”just cruising”?!? I think this is the place to be.

What the hell, indeed. Still waiting for something to happen.

#Monsterdon

"nice car!"

"thanks, I won it on the price is right!"

-- tumblr in the 80s, probably

#monsterdon #VampiBeachieBikini

I’m thinking this shot of the women driving a convertible to the beach should have been the opening shot.

#Monsterdon

THE WAVES ARE REALLY HAPPENIN YOU GUYS #Monsterdon

Do these people even live in LA? Cruising isn't something you do at the beach.

(it involves driving really slowly to show off your lowrider car/truck(

sigh

#Monsterdon

This is Sci-Fi Channel Saturday movie material, years ahead of that I think. #monsterdon

OMG THE MOON IS HUGE AND IT'S SO CLOSE TO THE HIGHWAY!
#monsterdon

"no! we can't afford re-dubbing!"

#monsterdon

Bondage happened... This was normal when cruising in the 80s.

#Monsterdon

Um, hi?

#Monsterdon

Oh my.....

#MOnsterdon

Jumping immediately post opening credits to a flashback. Extra points for big hoop earrings.

#Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach

So far, it’s 5 minutes into the movie, and all we’ve had are opening credits.

#Monsterdon

Tubi has decreed no #monsterdon for me tonight.

jesus god no

no

NO

IT'S A VOICEOVER NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

EMERGENCY HEADSET DEPLOYMENT PROTOCOLS ENGAGED

#monsterdon #VampiBeachieBikini

This image was taken on whatever Samsung phone faked the moon photos.
#Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie LOL so considerate. #Monsterdon

Moonfall (2022)
#monsterdon

Given the aspect ratio, was this just a Direct-to-VHS production? #monsterdon

@cherizilla If the Moon ever got close enough to look like that the world would very literally end that same night...

#Monsterdon

@paco I love a Monsterdonian that recognizes a setup. #Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach #VampiBeachieBikini

#monsterdon They went all out with these titles.

You can tell this will be a classy film.

@combatwombat

Yet another of their powers!

#Monsterdon

The message so far is that altogether too many people were involved in this

#Monsterdon

@ramsey That explains the vampire problem.

#Monsterdon

Music is a bit repetitive and simple
#monsterdon

This soundtrack brought to you by Knight Rider #monsterdon

MOON

#Monsterdon

It’s not just an original score, it’s an original ROCK score #Monsterdon

I really hope the incidental music is of high quality as this intro

#Monsterdon

It is never daytime in this beach town.

#Monsterdon

Dick Jones!

#monsterdon

[nudging my date] they got Michael Hao for Demos in this one

#Monsterdon

It's all Miguel Alonso's fault

#monsterdon
#VampireOnBikiniBeach

Good synthy score!

#Monsterdon

miguel alonso, the only reason to watch this movie.

#monsterdon

Aspect ratio seems a bit squished on https://miru.miyaku.media/. Extra tall vampires. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🧛 🧛‍♀️ 🧛‍♂️ 🏖️ 👙💪 🫣 😱

The title card said "Vampire on Bikini Beach", but the title is listed as "Vampire*s* on Bikini Beach" does this mean they wrote the title card before actually filming the movie? And they thought they'd only need one vampire?

Soundtrack by Casio 'DEMO mode'. #monsterdon

whoah, they got sombody _playing_ the DX-7 "Demos"?!

#monsterdon

@kshernandez added a CW :)

#Monsterdon

This is the kind of music I could take a nap to.

#Monsterdon

Is… is that font related to Comfortaa or am I losing my Owlbear-lovin' mind?

#Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach

We don't have cemeteries in the grassy parts between the sidewalk and the street here.

#Monsterdon #VampireOnBikiniBeach

Too early for these titles to be done on an Amiga? #Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach

Seen Madonna's Ray of Light too many times. #Monsterdon

Fun fact:

California beach towns do not have graveyards. They just use the land between the street and the sidewalk.

#Monsterdon

They were really, really, into timelapse shots. And video titles.

#Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach

All these people are dead now....

#MOnsterdon

Is it legal to use this font in movie credits?

#Monsterdon

Big moon and music video traffic blur behind the tombs. I’m enjoying the beat. #Monsterdon

My brain is broken, these title sequences look AI to me #Monsterdon

Robert Dinwiddie is a #heyitsthatguy isn't he? Can't remember from where #monsterdon

#monsterdon Opening credits music sounds like a demo on the synthesizer they forgot to do anything more with.

Wait, Richard Reiner? How does this into Aliens?

#Monsterdon

So it's THAT kind of movie! #monsterdon

Sherry Dill? I love that salad dressing!

#monsterdon

We put all the stars in alphabetical order, but costars and the withs and ands ? NAH.

#Monsterdon

Titling provided by Movie Maker, circa Windows 3.11.

#monsterdon #vampireonbikinibeach

You can get pretty sick from Badham. #Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach

was this movie actually made in 1988. why do they need stop motion animation for the ocean

#monsterdon

#monsterdon The moon was HUGE, and then not! Not even going to do a matte painting of a nice full moon huh? The easiest? Harrumph. Time for cast to start dying.

80'S TIME BAYBEE #monsterdon

Oh, well that's a very 1980s soundtrack intro. Needs more drum machine. #Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach #VampiBeachieBikini

starring in alphabetical order, this is gonna be such an amazing film. look at this font.

#monsterdon

Budget typography on the title presentation

#Monsterdon

Wait... did she just... #Monsterdon Her heals did more protesting than she did.

🎶 gonna be a montage 🎶

#monsterdon

This is what happens to you if you go walking in LA.

#monsterdon #VampiBeachieBikini

hey wait the title says there's only one vampire??
i'm also watching Seattle Modular Nights in another tab so this is an extremely synthy #monsterdon (failing to multitask)

Was that the vulcan neck pinch? Do we have vulcan vampires?
#monsterdon

Dman, I forgot to start the disposable victim clock

🎶 One night with vampires makes a hard man humble 🎶

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Now that is a cheap-ass font..

Oh no we have voice overs!
#Monsterdon #VapiresOnBikiniBeach

So far no bikinis and no beach so
#monsterdon

And now, a Cars video ...

#Monsterdon #VampireOnBikiniBeach

Most realistic timelapses with moon the size of Jupiter I’ve ever seen #Monsterdon

White heels never really made a comeback huh

#Monsterdon

Who put that moon there, and how did it get so big?

#monsterdon #vampireonbikinibeach

see she was Jennifer Goodham before this movie

#monsterdon

Woops. Spoke too soon. Nice moon, fuckers.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🧛 🧛‍♀️ 🧛‍♂️ 🏖️ 👙💪 🫣 😱

what did that hooded figure do to that young woman ?

oh my god that moon #monsterdon

beacon films is hoping you'll forget their name by the end of this film.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon That lady collapsed faster than a souffle at a rock concert, geez.

Oh. I look away for 1 second, and the lady is being carried off randomly.
#Monsterdon

The title card is "vampire" singular on the version o am watching. I am just going with it!

#Monsterdon

Last night I watched 'Thief' with a Tangerine Dream synth soundtrack

So presumably this movie will be just as good?

#Monsterdon

dear lords the 80s Valley hair dos...

Wait, was she just vamped?

#MOnsterdon

Hoo boy. This is gonna be a slog. #Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach

And the title is actually VAMPIRE on Bikini Beach, singular.

#Monsterdon #VampiresOnBikiniBeach

omg #monsterdon

MEGA moon
#monsterdon

why was there a vanity card after the film started? woof this is already off to a start
#Monsterdon

THE MOON IS MOON

#monsterdon

We should have seen a beach by now. I’m just saying.

#Monsterdon

I for one never miss a BEACON FILMS, INC. picture.
#Monsterdon

only the finest of VHS tape was used to shoot this movie

#monsterdon #VampiBeachieBikini

SO. MUCH. DX7.

#monsterdon
