Folks it is about an hour until #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party. If you want to avoid a flood of goofy toots, I recommend setting up a hashtag filter in your preferences.
If you'd like to join in, we're watching CRITTERS (1986) this week, one o' them Gremlins-alikes. You can catch it for free over on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/100001406/critters
We start at 9pm eastern! Be there or be a small dubiously constructed rubber mammal!
There are now ten minutes until #Monsterdon. If you're joining in, cue up the movie and get your snacks together. If you're trying to avoid it, make sure your filter is set up. If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands.
Y'know, I can't figure out if I've seen tonight's movie before or not. Or if I'm just confusing it with Gremlins, or Hobgoblins, or one of the eighty other rubbery ugly/cute knockoff movies that came out in the '80s.
And I suspect I'll still feel like that after having watched it. #Monsterdon
