I imagine the Yeti willl appreciate his parade. #monsterdon
This film has suddenly turned into Severance
Youβll definitely go into orbit once you see the Yeti Hog Dong. LOL. #monsterdon yay! We have Disco!
"Take the YETI for a spin around our landmarks first, we have the time...."
Okay⦠say what you will about how *unrealistic* the first act was⦠but that MARKETING sequence tho!
The changing scale of the yeti is dizzying
I love that the official yeti t shirts reference the nipple grab #monsterdon
HAHAHAHAHA of *course* the first thing they do after meeting the Yeti is use him to market hair care products and gasoline
...wtf movie...
please stop framing the yeti in ways that suggest the other characters are staring at his dick
Wait, they seriously named her Jane? Tarzan references much?
After eating the fish, the Yeti offers a fish skeleton to the Smart Daughter; this makes her mad because she says that all men are the same; I guess her last boyfriend gave her a giant fish skeleton or something. Anyway, she is still very horny for the giant Yeti.
The adult search party appears to chaperone this encounter, and they give the Yeti some spray medicine to heal his gunshot wound. He is scared but trusts the children enough for them to use a healing item on him.
Best way to clean a bullet wound is with Lysol my Mom alwasy said... #monsterdon
this yeti's face journeys are something else #monsterdon
...yeah, this is the writer's *undisguised* fetish. They just implied monster fucking
It's too late for tender hair combing, YOU DID THE NIPPLE THING
"ONLY THE GIRL MAY USE THE HAIRSPRAY ON ME"
"He's mistaken you for his children, maybe you for his mate."
"You might have some duties to perform!"
WHAT
WHAT THE HELL
Red flag there, sir.
lol @ the professor, high as fuck, happy with the 50ft YETI taking that girl for a wife...
What's that Lassie? The yeti is trapped in the old well?
Such a romantic fish skeleton
Lou Ferrigno never could've pulled off that hairdo
Don't shove your pistol down your pants.
Is the one on the left a girl or a boy? I can't tell...
LOL, the professor is still so high, it's brilliant....
FUN FACT: The actor that played The Yeti later played Skeletor in Masters Of The Universe (1987)
I will hug them and pet them. Call them George. #monsterdon
Those spectators are still running around in circles.
#Monsterdon The Yeti knows, itβs definitely Maybelline.
Are you ther God? Itβs me, Yeti. #Monsterdon
YETI NIPPLE! OH NO! OH NOOOO!
#Monsterdon #Yeti
The spectators have been running around the trailer park for a long time without getting anywhere fast.
LOL @ "look out, he's got a tree" and all that happened in that scene
With that big hair, he's a shoe in for a 70s metal band.
Sure bring your dog. Bring a picnic. Weβll make a day of it!
#monsterdon
Yeti butt
You can't fool me. That cage is actually a 19U server cabinet. I've cut myself on those enough times to know.
RIP Giant Canadian Phone Booth
#Monsterdon the problem with running film backwards like that is that the smoke effect is kind of a giveaway.
YETI has every right to be upset
Mimmo Crao isn't wearing a costume. He was a hairy guy who was willing to do nude work, if the film required it.
This Professor is very much of the "Move fast and break things" variety, isn't he?
Oh don't blame it all on the handsome dog!
No one expected the creature would be extremely unnerved to wake up suddenly and find himself up in the air with no control over his situation. Really? #monsterdon
Gosh, maybe flying around in a helicopter dangling a monster in a giant phone booth wasn't a good idea.
he was melting in the helicopter phone booth this whole time???? put him down!!!!!!!!! of course he is scared!!!! #monsterdon
Heβs going into Future Shock!
We've successfully revived the yeti! Quick! Gas the yeti! #monsterdon
Let Nature give him life, if she will. Oh hell, just shock him.
#Monsterdon they used this in Conan the Destroyer too. Ba boom. Kettle drummer was very happy that day.
I like the literal oscilloscope
I'll give it to Jurassic Park, they had a very plausible reason to have kids on a dangerous adventureβ it was supposed to be an amusement park
Most of the #Monsterdon movies don't bother explaining why 10 year olds are allowed to do monster wrangling
I feel like there are a lot of assumptions going into this yeti being from the himalayas? Unless I missed something about how he ended up in ice, I thought it was around the arctic ocean?
Found out about a new spot near me today. Their pasta gets really food reviews but I was feeling pizza-ey. Crust is perfectly done and the tomato sauce is nice and thick. Definitely try the lasagna/spaghetti. #Monsterdon
@socketwench you can tell he's not a real scientist because he did literally just stop and ask if they SHOULD revive the Yeti.
Jurassic Park taught me that real scientists don't do that.
Really confused as to the size of this being, toy helicopters are not good for scale...
Does Trump know the Canadians have a yeti?
@bunnyhero #monsterdon
I now realize I too have seen this one. I remember the big red erector setβ¦of science.
The plot thickens as the Large Rich Guy has a sneaky lieutenant, who after the video conference goes into a side office and calls a Mysterious Patron. He is apparently plotting to betray him; I'm sure this treachery will not cause any problems.
This professor is high as fuck and I appreciate that
"WE MUST MERGE SCIENCE AND PHILOSOPHY!"
All that man in the yellow jacket does is smoke and leer over that girl
The soft porn background music is making me uncomfortable
#Monsterdon Morgan will have a waaafer thin mint. Kaboom!
In the next scene, we are somewhere that requires coats, probably canada, where a large coated crowd has gathered to watch some employees shoot flame throwers at a block of ice. The Science Master from before is watching and taking notes, as are Two Matching Children in White Coats. Other people are watching too; flamethrowering an Ice Block is a fun collective experience.
We learn that the ice block contains a big hairy guy frozen into the ice, perhaps the titular 'Yeti'.
The millionaire plans to open a theme park⦠Welcome To Yetassic Park!
I bet sunlight would work just as well and be way less dangerous than flame throwers, but what do I know? #Monsterdon
The standard beautiful teen girl and her little brother, Cillian Murphy
"But when the world needed him most, The Avatar just vanished..." #monsterdon
Jodie Foster is not amused. There is only one way to win Jodie Fosterβs heartβ¦
Didn't any of you guys watch The Thing? #Monsterdon
Also the SimCity4 player in me is recognising buildings from the game, yayy!
@allanb @ramsey @Copperplate @riedlr
Tough call. #monsterdon
This is going to be stuck in my head for days now
https://youtu.be/97FAle0F1jE
#monsterdon
You're hair isn't truly great, unless it's YETI great. Try new Alpine-scented YETI shampoo and conditioner.
"I was frozen for a MILLION YEARS. Talk about bed head! But I woke up without a worry about how my hair would look, because I always use YETI brand shampoo and conditioner."

@SnoopJ And here's a one-second, take-away clip to share with your friends (or notβprobably not).
Dunno who asked for it but I saw a request fly by. Here is the entire Yeti Nipple Sequence for your viewing (dis)pleasure
I forgot to show you! It was delicious though, like key lime pie with crunchy coconut
Yeti pudding #Monsterdon
@Copperplate @allanb @riedlr @ramsey Iβm trying to be an influencer with the flat earth crowd. #monsterdon
Can't believe I missed the German giant octopus movie. Yeah, I know I can watch it in the archive, but it's not the same.
Upon reflection I think the true moral of Yeti this #monsterdon was that scientists who trust businessmen and figure they'll work out the ethics later get murdered by hitmen and have their deaths blamed on yeti.
I watched Yeti earlier. Sorry I missed the toot-along, but some of my favourite bits:
- Teenage-model-heroine places a phone call from a phone booth dropped haphazardly in the middle of a puddle.
- All the Massey Ferguson product placement.
- The henchman killed with the - βgonna crush you, hmm, maybe not, psych! - TOE STRANGLEβ
- From downtown Toronto: βDrive up the mountain!ββ¦ Um, wat!?
Thanks @Taweret for hosting, and everyone who tooted, will be reading through them now!
Top highlights of this week's #monsterdon movie (Yeti: Giant of the 20th Century):
- fully articulated yeti nipple
- funky 70s remix of O Fortuna
- Good Dog
10/10, would recommend
@allanb @riedlr @ramsey Raw yeti milk is great for the immune system. #monsterdon
Well, now that I tricked you all into voting for Yayti, Iβm off to do my book tour.
Too soon?
whew, it's over. That was a very #monsterdon movie.
I first saw that from MightyBattleCat on Twitter who posted this a long while back.
"Of all the movies I've seen, that was certainly one of them."
@moira When you tell your kids this story, remember, you asked for it.
@riedlr That would explain why he didn't populate the earth. #monsterdon
@riedlr my wife an I watched this a few weeks ago, I think Monsterdon would appreciate it #monsterdon
@ScruffyJunco well, I've never seen THAT before.....
once in a while y'just gotta go "thank the gods for Italian cinema"
Fellini
Sergio Leone
Whatever the fuck this just was
The amazing thing about this week's #monsterdon is that even after watching the whole film, I still have no idea how tall that Yeti was supposed to be, and I have no idea how old either of the kids were supposed to be.
@SordidAmok That would be @Taweret (although the final selection is made by a poll each Monday - follow #MonsterdonAlert to see it)
do we know why there are horseshoes on the conference table? #monsterdon
@jonny @riedlr @ramsey Not once in the process - script, storyboard, effects, rehearsals, or filmingβ¦ not once did someone say βhey, this seems wrong.β #monsterdon
A classic #Monsterdon if there ever was one!
- Friendly yeti
- Just one random scene of weird sexual allusions (optional)
- Monster gets to stomp some people who deserve it
- Monster fucks off into the sea
- Funkina Burana
Thanks @Taweret for hosting and everyone for posting!
yeti really was like "I could crush him under my foot but...I think I'll strangle him with my toes instead." #monsterdon
I kind of love how in all these YouTube previews the play button spared us the Yeti Butt Crack experience. #Monsterdon #Yeti1977
So the plots of this movie were:
Scientist finds yeti and wants to study him
Rich guy wants to promote his businesses
Orphans deal with trauma-induced muteness
Yeti can't make sense of this modern world
Guy positioned as the male lead does some kind of corporate takeover and commits assault, murder
Girl accepts sexual harassment by yeti as normal
Boy find comfort in the unconditional love of a noble hero dog
In case you need that upbeat jazzy disco theme song in your life, the internet archive has you covered.
