Oh goodie, late 80s American Borrowers.
"I'm real but I'm not solid"
Same tbh #Monsterdon

"I knew it, I'm finally going postal"
I can smell those chairs. Ew. #Monsterdon #zarkorrtheinvader
The LSD flashback finally hits
Girl how old are you? What are you doing in my apartment? How tall are you? Are you like Link's annoying fairy? HEY LISTEN!

Movies have taught me that every 90s TV was constantly airing the weirdest off brand cartoons
Youβve either got a brain tumor, or youβre gonna end up with one with that projection into your brain mailman. #monsterdon
Good miniatures! I liked that city fly through #monsterdon
They could only afford one of the Shobijin for this film
#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
Wow, I never expected Project Blue Beam to look like this. #Monsterdon
Yeah, Tommy! We need to talk. Why did you walk out on me last night?
this is already outstanding
#rootpost for #monsterdon (zarkorr! the invader)
Tommy just eats toast right out of the toaster? Nasty.
Oh, it's the little woman #Monsterdon
You left a wheat chex in the bowl. It's driving me crazy!
I appreciated the continuity of aesthetics by having the interior of these sets look like the exteriors.
#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
Little alien/fae pops in ... "Tommy, we got to talk."
Even this guy furniture looks fake

That guy lives in a diner #Monsterdon
OMG the buildings he's destroying actually LOOK like they're just made of cardboard or balsa wood.
@SnoopJ @socketwench Check out the TYPESET IN THE FUTURE book if you're curious about graphic design minutiae in movies. It's a fun deep dive into font wonkery.
Look! Itβs tiny Isla Fisher!
I just hope they donβt Christopher Lee this Kaiju reveal. If itβs another movie of horny people chasing nuns without the main draw ever appearing again Iβm going to lose my shit. #monsterdon
flying over new jersey like a mid-90s urban fantasy TV series.
RUN! it's a kaiju legally distinct from King Ghidorah!
So that was what. One minute of credits and then almost two minutes of monster?
Wonder how long it's gonna be before we see him again.
#Monsterdon #Zarkorr
You need to either take more or fewer meds, Tommy.
#Monsterdon
This has a very 1990's video game camera feel to it.
Oh my, they are really messing this diorama
#Monsterdon

@bstacey Going to mooch over here tonight if I post at all (might not, it's been an "allergies" day)
allergies = medication bounce back in this case + actual might be allergic to something that blooms in the summer here
A much faster zero-to-monster than previous #Monsterdon.
No time wasted, straght to the rubber suits breaking models. Excellent. This is the #monsterdon I was led to expect.
#Newjersey shoutout in Zsrkorr! Everybody from NJ drink!
meanwhile, in ... new jersey?
the execution is lacking but i will grant that the attempt seemed to be made with those models. not good, but enthusiastic.
@wohali@timeloop.cafe And the Zarkorr comes in the NIIIIIIIIIIGHT!
#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
There goes the foam board store #Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader1996
#monsterdon They sure didn't pussyfoot around this time. Blue collar workers for 10 seconds, then, MONSTER.
Quick summon Godzilla!
Double tap on the feed and grain store
My models! #Monsterdon
He's going all out for his Judas Priest cover band video! #Monsterdon #zarkorrtheinvader
Much close-up stomping of the scenery.
Monster already! They know they don't have much time.
No, my model convenience store!
#Monsterdon
Special effects by the people who did that HBO intro back in the early 80s. #Monsterdon
Fun fact: The number of movie scripts that begin with the word "avalanche" is non-zero.
sfx aren't bad so far
@GeoffWozniak that's no so much a prediction as it is a #Monsterdon standard.
#monsterdon The stupid way the actor delivered the line 'Avalanche!' was actually totally appropriate for the scope of that avalanche.

Do a little kaiju dance
Make a little kaiju love
Get down tonight
Weβre getting right to the creature! #Monsterdon

Not the feed store!
these people would have killed for drones
@ohiofi ack showing up late and where is the link
#monsterdon
this kaiju attack... is making me.... sleeepy.....
Oh shit, this takes place in Newark? And I thought it couldn't get any worse. #Monsterdon
Old school rubber suit kaiju? You have my attention, go on... #Monsterdon
A monster less than an hour in?
wow, okay, like 30 seconds to Zarkorr, that's better than i thought we'd get tonight.
How close is this mountain to this city exactly? #monsterdon
From that angle it almost looks like Zarkorr is lighting its own farts. ππ₯
Zarkorr! The Invader (1996) #Watching #Monsterdon https://letterboxd.com/imdb/tt0118214
Monster already! Zarkorr, you're spoiling me!
#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
I was gonna say those locals didn't look terribly fussed by the styrofoam avalanche, but okay sure why not we got monster right out of the gate!
Starting with the monster. I like it.
Nice change of pace
#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
I love miniatures! π #Monsterdon
little early for the over-the-shoulder explosion scene my dude
#Monsterdon π½οΈπΎπ¦π§ββοΈπ₯π«£ π±
Excellent! We are in kaiju territory already!!
Yes, because avalanches always make laser noises.
#Monsterdon π½πΎπ¦π§ββοΈπ₯π«£ π±
Hooray!!
2 minutes to monster, a new record? #monsterdon
So if the mountain was hollow, would it have rang like a bell when you hit it like the moon does? #ConspiracyTheoriesAreReal #Monsterdon
Okay, that seems bad
#monsterdon well so far this looks like a job for international rescu...oh wait no they don't do Kaiju
Time is a flat circle, ie. I'm using tubi for #monsterdon tonight
We really need to bring back miniature towns for destruction.
#Monsterdon
This is a pretty good score for a #monsterdon movie

It was taken from the Tyrannosaurus-rex of Jurassic Park.
Avalanche!
And, we have Kaiju. Well, they know what the audience wants.
Can't be an Avalanche. There's no sign of Rock Hudson.
Explosalanche!
#Monsterdon I aways assumed all movies with a ! In the name were musicals
@socketwench The children have to learn about TekWar typography some day.
Run! Papier marche! #Monsterdon
Avalanche!
a single, lone rock launches itself off the mountain in solidarity.
