#Wolfen1981

Hey it's...
that guy?
#monsterdon

Its not against the law for rich people to have cocaine. #Monsterdon

I do remember about 15 minutes in the 1980s when all of us wore these headbands.

#monsterdon

So far, I do like Albert Finney’s portrayal of this character.

#Monsterdon

Ha ha - if only some other 1980s wealthy guys in NYC with an eye to the US presidency had got the Wolfen™ treatment.

#monsterdon

"See if you can sniff anything out" oh this movie has JOKES. It thinks #Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

We know he's weird because he's holding his coffee that way #monsterdon

There were signs of a group hug which escalated. #Monsterdon

"See if you can sniff out anything"

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

just watching this dude's coffee gradually spill out the cup as he walks along

#monsterdon

So far "Wolfen" is so '70s it owns a Marantz receiver with a built-in cassette player/recorder…and Altec-Lansing speakers.

#monsterdon
#Wolfen

@apLundell creepiest thing in this movie so far

#Monsterdon

Donuts settle my stomach, too. Wait. What?

#Monsterdon

@flowerpot The annoying (dead) people with ineffectual high tech surveillance 🤣 #Monsterdon 🐺 #Wolfen

@jonny @floatybirb

I think it inspired the Predator vision in the later film (I got more certain of this after the heartbeat sound was included)

#monsterdon

Little chocolate donuts. Breakfast of champions. (Look up the Jim Belushi sketch.)
#Monsterdon

@paco

The hand was found incribed "delay, deny, depose"

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

I miss how much the 80s loved New York City.

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

The pager tech also sticks out these days. Almost connected #Monsterdon

Thank you #EatTheRich #MonsterdonBingo #Monsterdon #Wulfen1981

Somewhere, a helicopter exists #Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

WOLF WINGS #Monsterdon

Is that a Robinson helicopter?

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Dog distribution network... denied ​:floofSad:​

#Monsterdon #Wolfen

i need to feed my cat right when there is any dialogue at all, so much for me understanding what's going on in this movie #monsterdon

Tom Brokaw: Tragedy tonight at Christo’s The Gates installation… #Monsterdon

After the rich people fondle the wind chimes and go play inside the spooky wind mill, the valet goes to take a goddamn break and look at the sky and then is decapitated by something. RIP annoyed valet.

Oh wait and then both the rich people are attacked by something. RIP one or both rich people.

#monsterdon

doggy!

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

lol his hand.

#Monsterdon

The Wolf Ate Wall Street

#monsterdon

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Werewolf?
There wolf!

She finally stopped clutching her pearls so, good on ya, Wolfen.

#Monsterdon

3 kills in under 11 minutes?

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

🐺 3
🤷‍♂ 0

#Monsterdon

Okay yeah, that dog is high as fuck.

#Monsterdon

The distorted video (presumably from the monsters' eyes) is an interesting effect. I don't know the right term but it might be posterization?

#monsterdon

@apLundell that's posterizing and it was done via video technique, either analog or digital

#monsterdon

Called it. At least he died with a weapon in his hand, so he gets into Valhalla.

#Monsterdon
#Wolfen1981

can we have a WOLFEN: UNFILTERED EDITION without the video fx?

#monsterdon

alright, leave the driver alone, too. man's just trying to make a living.

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Do werewolves see in...whatever that is...acid maybe?

#Monsterdon

This scene is like watching a migraine
#Monsterdon

What is with the wolf's vaguely electronic sound effects?

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

characters in this park

fancy lady (fondles wind chimes)
chris (presumably the rich asshole)
annoyed valet guy
the park itself (has a replica windmill)
spooky shadows that appear on the replica windmill
doggo (good boy)

#monsterdon

Oh, you're killing the black guy first? Whitely, c'mon. #Monsterdon

Limo driver does not want to be there.
Let limo driver go home.
You rich people are the real monsters.
#monsterdon

okay I think this is a new monster POV effect for monsterdon

#monsterdon

Engage the wolf filter

#monsterdon

I suspect we shouldn't get so attached to this guy that we remember his name is Chris.

#monsterdon

If this was from the 50s it would absolutely advertise this as Wolf-O-Vision.

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

#Monsterdon Are you going to make me go to DoesTheDogDie.com ?!? 🐺 #Wolfen

And now it’s time for “Wolf Vision” !

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Suddenly we're in an New Wave video. Nena's gonna start singing about balloons any minute. #monsterdon #Wolfen

#monsterdon the classic trope of supernatural-killer-cam where the killer's vision is significantly worse than a regular human's

OK, that visual effect is going to get tired fast.

#Monsterdon
#Wolfen1981

"Did you miss me?"
"Yes! I'm too high for object permanence right now"

#monsterdon

Chaueffer CC: White people #Monsterdon

@diazona The guy was wearing a tie, and they were in a limo. If that's not formal drugs, I don't know what is.
#monsterdon

Aaaaa rich white guy jump scare #Monsterdon

something about windmills? we gonna have a werewindmill?

#monsterdon

Executive Surveillance Systems

#Monsterdon
#Wolfen1981

Press X to Chris

#monsterdon

Oh you know, new york's famous... replica... windmill.

All the movies have it.
#monsterdon

Had to turn the sound down bc the chimes are messing with my chi.

#Monsterdon

oh sweet we have James Horner doing the music.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon lol replica historical windmill huh, seems legit

she's done so much coke that she actually finds those windchimes interesting.

#monsterdon

I thought she was doing coke not x

#Monsterdon

Casual drugs

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Oh, no, there we go, this IS the Whitley Strieber one.

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

OH he gave her a pearl necklace. Not just metaphorically wink wink. #Monsterdon

What in parkour is going on?
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

I fear for the Borzoi!

#monsterdon
Little old midwestern ladies🤝<tiny spoon collection>🤝yuppies in the '80s

alright, i skipped through the first four minutes, what i gather is that there is a wolf that has wolf vision on the loose and he hates rich people, that about right? #monsterdon

A little nose candy. Must be the producer. #Monsterdon

Did....did people intentionally misspell their names on this movie?

Did Alan Smithee direct?

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

A white woman doing drugs while a Black man drives is certainly A Choice. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon damn that was a great throw EJO

oh there's a doggy. i bet the doggy is there to growl at werewoof humans

#monsterdon

ah, the 80's…
(where's the nosecandy emoji?)

#monsterdon

Fingers crossed for a tap dancing werewolf if Gregory Hines is in the cast

#monsterdon

Wolf. Were Wolf.

(His collar says 007)

#Monsterdon

Wolfen had Predator vision, even before Predators. #Monsterdon

It will always be eerie seeing the Twin Towers

#Monsterdon

Cyborg-vision? #Monsterdon

Bold move, director. Using 30+ seconds of film for a building collapse, including 10 seconds of countdown.

#Monsterdon

WOLF-O-VISION

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

@MatthewTitus88 #monsterdon

a lot of trouble, unless they are.... WOLFEN!!!!

This is my #monsterdon thread for #Wolfen1981, a movie that perhaps has a werewolf and the 1980s.

Monsterdon is a thing where we watch a monster movie every week and make fun of it. Moot the hash tag if that's not your jam. If that is your jam, follow @Taweret for the weekly poll to decide what we film will subject ourselves to next.

They're on a .... DemoMission. #Monsterdon
