@strangefour Puggle Kaiju #monsterdon
Yellow coat dude really dragged out that death
This guy really WALKS down concrete walkways....like a PRO
If I'm ever a gangster, my hideout's gonna be somewhere that people feel comfortable slow-dancing.
@WastelandWandrr he make think being a giant is cool but has he thought it through? what about the toilet situation? what clothes would he wear? He will regret taking the formuler #Monsterdon
wait, why doesn't Muzzler get its own Fing food, it's big enough now
@Terencio exactly! Everyone would be at your door, you'd never get any quiet....it's a monkey's paw situation
Kinda want to go grass skiing now......
@Lazarou #Monsterdon #WrongInvader
with Infinite Power come Infinite Responsibilities
Noticing a theme of "Children irresponsibly unleash kaiju on the Adult world" tonight
Giant snakes sound like crows, that's just science #Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleDeature #ThunderOfGiganticSerpent
Is she asking the snek if its muslim?
@wyatt_h_knott #Monsterdon #WrongInvader
The movie's actually pretty entertaining so far...
@ramsey you have some questions to answer for this! #Monsterdon
I would have liked her pink angora jumper as well back then, but that would not have been allowed π
Oh wow. I remember those grass skis!
Why are people dying over this giant frog, is it symbolic?
Terrorists attacking a science facility with monster experiments going on? Did Godzilla vs Biollante rip this off? Oh fuck no. Nobody at Toho ever heard of this crap. But it's funny to compare.
#Monsterdon #ThunderofGiantSerpent
"....and clear my browser history!"
Honestly, Zarkorr could only dream of these action sequences!
loving the frog enlargement
Dr T pities the fool #Monsterdon #ThunderOfGiganticSerpent
"I have a right to know! I'm a scientist!" I'll try that next time.
so far the snek is the best actor so far.
#monsterdon Zarkorr song not on Spotify, I can't put it on my Halloween playlist π
Wow, I forgot that the Yeti theme song was like a disco/funk version of O Fortuna.
that movie was nice and short though, got to give it a point for that
Now with a Godfrey Ho picture we know for certain that he just took the monster footage from one movie and glued some extra scenes onto it to make a movie.
#Monsterdon #ThunderofGiantSerpent
Whew, so that was like... five? minutes of solid kaiju footage wrapped in 70 minutes of SciFi Channel-level crap. And we didn't even get the fairy returning to tell the guy he'd done a good job!
I'm gonna fuck off into space for the night too. G'night #monsterdon and see y'all next week!
lol, once the after movie feature looks better than the main......did Zarkorr have Kung Fu?
@kcarr2015 @combatwombat Indeed, and also seemed like one of the more competent actors in this one
More monster in the closing credits than in the whole movie! :gummyeyes:
#monsterdon #zarkorr1996
Love how they're belting this rock anthem over recaps as if we had just watched a good movie. Were Hilary Pugh and J Fuzzbee Morse ever heard from again?
@combatwombat I like to imagine they fell in love and went on a killing spree in the badlands.
Miniature Effects Crew, thank you. You're the only people here I still respect #Monsterdon
"Zarkorr"s are doin' in for themselves #Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
#ZarkorrTheInvader1996
Okay but how was that a solution only he could think of/apply? Does postal employee training provide some kind of beam reflection bonus? #Monsterdon
#monsterdon FUCK OFF Zarkorr gets his own theme song?!? Five stars
Here. The ending theme. The only good part of the movie outside of the very rare kaiju effects shots.

#Monsterdon #Zarkorr
All it took to vanquish Zarkorr was a vanity mirror? π€
alien mind projections lying in mall fountains and distributing calls to action is not a viable system of government
This movie does not deserve a song that goes this hard #monsterdon
#monsterdon Why did the movie even have a tiny girl?'
@xerozohar Legit the best piece of music in the film. I know that's a low bar, but still. #Monsterdon
@srol The #Monsterdon experience in a nutshell
Zarkorr, Giant of the 20th Century-Stand
Lazering myself is one of my turn-offs
@north @Bluedepth it's the second one we've seen tonight! #Monsterdon
oh, hey, called it.
Next question: Would that have been the better movie?
If tiny Buffy doesnβt show up at the end to award Tommy with a medal, imma be pissed.
Tommy has grabbed the giant egg and is now using it as a shield to repel the lasers. Eventually the lasers reflect back into Zarkorr and he disintegrates himself.
In the next scene, Tommy is in a hospital bed and Dr. Steph says "you did it you saved the world" and the news person is interviewing him.
#monsterdon this song rips and this movie did not earn it at ALL
π¦MONSTERDON ποΈ
βοΈ CATACLYSMIC TRIVIA ππ₯
What happened to the Zarkorr costume?
There has been no confirmed public exhibition or sale of the original costume. Its current whereabouts remain unknown, and it is likely still in private hands or lost to time. (Low budget movies of this time often trashed costumes like this.)
At least it was brief
Wasn't the real Zarkorr the friends we made along the way?
Spefically, several of the actors?
Why did they write this song?
#monsterdon We don't even get a final thought from the tiny girl?
No "Good job Earthling, I knew you could do it. -wink-" or something like that?
I've played video games in the 90s with more convincing final scenes
"Running for President?"
Oh fuck off
he's firin' him lazers
Ok, I guess we got something worse than "Vampires at Bikini Beach". #Monsterdon always surprising us!
#zarkorr1996
@Bluedepth I'd be curious to see the ratio of monsters fuckering off to space
Pacing problems.
#monsterdon
[lasers pewing]
Anyway, after our other party members leave, Tommy takes the wheel and floors it into the city where Zarkorr is smashing things. He leaves the car and stares down Zarkorr and yells at him, invoking the ancient code of "come at me bro".
Zarkorr shoots laser at him but misses because his eyeball aim is bad I guess.
They should find the bin that big lid goes to and put this movie in it
... why did those normal pistols sound like lasers
Zarkorr could also just walk around the buildings too.
@cocaine_owlbear oh god damn it
#monsterdon Zarkorr has a bad case of laryngitis. So much wheezingβ¦
Love how buildings are pre-emptively exploding before Zarky gets to them
While driving to Zarkorr we get stopped at a roadblock. The dumb cop pretends he has a mother in the town which has been evacuated offscreen. The roadblock cops get suspicious of all the nonsense and tell them to leave the car.
@CactuarJoe I did say amateur :3
OMG we actually have live actors green-screened with the Kaiju footage!
We now rejoin the destruction of Cardboardopolis already in progress
We checked and your mother is deaf. She's wanted for unsolicited jam poetry in five counties
Poor Zarkorr just want fren and skritches.
#monsterdon He's driving into an evacuation zone! Shoot him!
For his own safety!
@davesdogmaggie that would take a lot of amphetamines, surely? #Monsterdon
@diazona ...wait, that's some iterations of mecha-godzilla among other things
Is he going to use his extensive knowledge of postal codes to save the day?
The dumb cop baffles the Sheriff with nonsense, and it is super effective. He takes the Sheriff's belt as a trophy and we use it to secure the giant egg into our trunk, because it won't quite fit.
Dr. Steph tries to figure out what they're going to do next, and Tommy, doing his best stoic resignation face, says "I've got it covered. Just get me to Zarkorr."
STOMP STOMP STOMP !
#Monsterdon π½οΈπΎπ¦π§ββοΈπ₯π«£ π±
Is Zarkorr a doctor or is he also perfectly average for his planet? Or Newark? Or California? Where is Zarkorr from?
Zarkorr has the best monologues.
More yelling!
#monsterdon
"What are you? Some kind of a god damned question asker??" best line so far
#monsterdon
I must admit, by this point I'm kinda rooting for Zarkorr. #monsterdon
@CactuarJoe Character development seems like too much to expect from this movie
@diazona We could always find another Frankenstein movie
What if the monster is also a doctor?
I mean, terminal velocity impact with the ground didn't cause it to explode but, sure, being picked up might #Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
#ZarkorrTheInvader1996
"I need an old cops' belt, NOW!"
