That's a weird atttempt at scale armor. Usually working a little more on joint overlap will help more.

As it stands, you could slice her leg off.

#monsterdon #doublefeature #TheHowling2

Lots of werewolf nipples. #Monsterdon

She's wearing sunglasses because the actress got pinkeye.

You can literally see how watery her eyes are.

The sentry says NI

#monsterdon #doublefeature #TheHowling2

@kcarr2015 To be fair, he was a lot older in the "Adama strips naked and presents his rump to the Cylons" sequence of Battlestar.

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Oh snap! That was #EdwardJamesOlmos? How did I not recognize Gaffe/Adama!!!???

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

There have been a couple scenes where I'm asking "why is this here?" I don't know if it's filling for time or what... #monsterdon

Back to the werewolf threesome!

#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

"BOO HI HONEY"

Quality writing AND quality writing all in one movie?

Wow.

#monsterdon #doublefeature #TheHowling2

I don't care if she's dressed in pink head-to-toe and has afternoon sex with the guy, no one will convince me this woman isn't a dyke. #Monsterdon

That movie was way better than it had any right to be. Loved the ruined decayed settings, atmosphere, mystery, and the weird lore. 👍

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

More bird call references for some reason. #Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

The one second insert shots are hard to keep up with when I'm reading y'all comments

#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

...and then New York was gentrified and the wolfen lost, huzzah!

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

I think I'm going to have to make it a triple feature, and put on Transylvania 6-5000 after this.

Is that Big McLargeHuge from "Space Mutiny". I think that's him. Dear god he makes Peter Graves feel over the top. #monsterdon

Trust Christopher Lee to always keep a silver spike on his person. #Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

I wasn't super productive this weekend, but that's fine.

My only real regret is that I did not watch tonight's #monsterdon which everyone seems to have had fun with.

A lot more titty in this one

#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

Ooo, nice swipe in that transition. #monsterdon

Got back home just in time for boobies. #Monsterdon

@Binder

I've never watched a #monsterdon, but reading your live tooting is one of my favorite Sunday night things.

I'm here for the artistic nudity.

So tasteful

#monsterdon #doublefeature #TheHowling2

!Okay so there is some bat and vampire iconography to Rear Getting Vampires in our Werewolf movie.

#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

The writers' not at all concealed fetish.

#monsterdon #doublefeature #TheHowling2

"So we only got one song written for the soundtrack."

"That's cool. We'll just play it again and again and again."

Somebody please eat this jack off.

Reb Brown absolutely SCREAMS as Beef Hardcheese IN THE HOWLING 2

#monsterdon #doublefeature #TheHowling2

Husband: so how was the movie?

Me: well there were some fun 80s wolf effects

Husband: that's good!

Me: ...also it is was kinda really racist

Hubs: oh no.... It was about indigenous people wasn't it...

Me: YEAH...

Hubs: were there any actual native people in it?

Me: NOT REALLY...LIKE...just extras really...

Hubs: of course not...

#monsterdon

How many bullets did you bring? Silver is expense!

!I'm so glad the glass-topped coffin fad died out.

#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

@msh Thank you. You know how I worry when you're MIA Sunday evenings! 😄
#monsterdon

ANYWAY i know that most people have moved onto the double feature but great job as always launch team, that's another movie deservedly sent into space

and thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting

#monsterdon #wolfen1981

I have been watching this movie for an hour and a half, and have yet to see a single werewolf. Maybe the real horror is my misplaced anticipation along the way.

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

He said they removed the bulles in the autopsy but they clearly passed through to the wall behind her

#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

H'wat in the white bullshit was that

@saucerlost

They should have evolved their own then!

#HowlingII1985

Whitley Streiber: what if there was a brilliant underachiever who shuffled his way through life and didn't really do anything but also his boss and love interest told him all the time how brilliant he is while he fucks all his relationships up and takes stimulants, and then in the end nothing happens, or does it? (No)

Hollywood: here's millions of dollars

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe And he would have gotten away with it too. If it weren’t for you pesky kids… er… wolves!

#monsterdon #wolfen1981

@rebeld @Taweret
I learned a new racist slur - apple! For a conservative indigenous person - red on the outside, white on the inside. 🤦‍♂️😖

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Frankie Goes To Hollywood wannabes?

#Monsterdon
#HowlingII1985

Well heck. This is one to turn off the sound for, and just enjoy the visuals. The script just kind of interfered. Thanks, @Taweret, @Cherizilla and @JoeWynne for some great urban landscapes #Monsterdon

Is this the same Christopher Lee character as the alien priest in that #monsterdon movie the other month?

#Monsterdon
#HowlingII1985

Oh this movie is going to be bad bad.

Still watchingnfor Christopher Lee squirming at the rock show

#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

Mr. Costco?

#Monsterdon
#HowlingII1985

This is a much greener movie. #monsterdon

Anonymous violence, unlike the the good old days when you got killed by a skilled craftsman in a very intense personal encounter.

#Monsterdon
#HowlingII1985

There was absolutely no chemistry between Dewey and Rebecca, who decided that they should f**k?

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

#Monsterdon So the bit about bad livers, was that misdirection?

Or a metaphor for thinning the herd (of humans)?

By why diseased livers in particular, then?

None of the wolves I've known have had any strong opinions on urban architecture.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Well, there were some nice shots of actual wolves. Also, some terrible shots of wolves getting shot. Movie, what were you thinking? At any point?
Racist gibberish mumbo-jumbo, terrible haircuts, bad sex scenes, but wonderful location shooting. Decent special effects. Generally good cinematography but too many scenes of cops standing around with cigars in their mouths.

Another fine mess that @Taweret got us into.

Thanks all @monsterdonians for your pixellated feedback and digitized noises.

Hold the fuck up. This isn't even a sequel to howling 1. It's based off a novel howling 2. #Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #Howling2

🦖 MONSTERDON Goodbye!

A werewolf movie not about werewolves? Doesn't matter. All you in the Real-Time Film Analysis Squad saved the day with your posts!

❤️ And thank you @Taweret for hosting tonight's Woeful Wolf One. There's always hope for next week.

🅱️ and thanks @cherizilla@hypertext.monster for the Bingo card! My favorite: "Feeling wild. Feeling strong!"

#Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

holy shit i went looking for "urban renewal south bronx 1970s" and

#HowlingII1985

@nev It's back to writing the lesbian slashfic for me

#Monsterdon

Huh bits of the score were used in Wrath of Khan and Aliens. No wonder it sounded familiar in places. #Monsterdon

Well that was actually watchable! Thank you @Taweret
I think the real monster was that horrifying apartment
#Monsterdon

@SesameSquirrel I believe the climax (of the wolves crashing in through the ·penthouse· windows) confirms my "flight" theory 😜

#monsterdon

@steggy THIS! IS! #MONSTERDON!!!! *kicks him backwards into hell*

Thanks all for a fun #monsterdon with you all

https://miru.miyaku.media/ if you wanna watch The Howling II

#monsterdon

WHAT the entire and complete fuck was that #monsterdon
Everyone go and watch Ginger Snaps or Dog Soldiers at your earliest convenience

@Louisa maybe he's looking for his car keys

Well that was a racist and eugenicist pile of crap. Glad to have suffered in such great company though!

#Monsterdon
#Wolfen1981

Thanks Twaret and Miru and thank y'all. That was fun. I'm out.

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Film's end should've been Olmos stopping Dewey and telling him "you've done a Wolfen's job, sir. I guess you're through, huh?"

#Monsterdon #Wolfen #Wolfen1981

An anti-gentrification #monsterdon !

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

In arrogance man knows nothing of what exists...

A fitting ending monologue to this movie, which thinks it's profound but is in fact spouting gibberish.

I know we just saw the captain die, but we're alone in this penthouse and we might not make it out...

#monsterdon

OK so the woofens are cool with Dewey now that he symbolically smashed the richy's models and will leave him alone. After all that other stuff. Hmmm, yes. That is the ending. OK.

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

All I can think is a bunch of well-known actors were about to become free agents if the studio didn't put them in a movie within a specific time frame, and this is what the studio came up with at short notice #Monsterdon #Wolfen1981

i would give them competent stuntwork on the bridge i guess, but if the actors do it is it a stunt?
#Monsterdon #Wulfen1981

y'know I let myself get my hopes up for this one and _that_ was a mistake

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

#monsterdon so the Dutch settlers with their devil themed windmill and church was a misdirect, that would be fine IF THEY EXPLORED THAT POSSIBILITY AT ALL

@paco they clearly had to fly to spy on the [utterly inexplicable] sex scene, so…🤷

#monsterdon

Really feels like a ran-over-budget ending
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

Whoooooooooooooooooo!

normally it's about real estate deals but this time it's just "nope, these tower blocks don't FUCKING WORK, start over"

#monsterdon #Wolfen1981

With the Wolfen appeased for now, the movie is... over I guess? And we're... going to feed the poor and destitute to the Wolfen? I guess there is a lesson? Also Professor Ferguson was never found? Anyways, this is the end of a watch thread for the 1981 movie Wolfen. #monsterdon

@cherizilla
The buildings were going up on their "hunting ground".

#monsterdon

They could have at least listed the wolves in the credits.
#Monsterdon

@cptbutton I was idly wondering if this film was one of the inspirations for World of Darkness…🤔

#monsterdon

I think we can track the exact point this movie lost the plot.
And it was when Whittington got eaten out of his sniper's perch.

#Monsterdon #Wolfen #Wolfen1981

#monsterdon fuck you Whitley Streiber!

And so the dogs go doin' what da dogs gonna do. and also MITCHELL. Thanks @Taweret for hosting, miru for streaming, and all the usual folks.

ENERGIZE *whoosh of active transport*

#monsterdon

Hashtag MutualAid intermission
Do it for Gregory Hines. #Monsterdon

So Dewey indicated his understanding about the construction and, I guess, indicated that he is okay with the Wolfen continuing to prey on our most vulnerable.

#Monsterdon

I think that was an abrupt ending, and yet it was kinda wrapped up.

#Monsterdon

you say potamo, i say

#monsterdon

The best thing to come from this film was James Horner, the composer.

#monsterdon

@apLundell they're jealous of our opposable thumbs and our power of speech #monsterdon
