Folks it is an hour until #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party. A bunch of nerds are about to toot about a corny movie, if you don't want to see it set up a hashtag filter.
If you'd like to join in, this week we're watching DRACULA, PRISONER OF FRANKENSTEIN (1972), which I fully expect to be as hokey as the proverbial pokey.
The flick's on Tubi over here, hit play at the top of the hour and toot along!: https://tubitv.com/movies/100040021/dracula-prisoner-of-frankenstein
#MST3k fans may be interested to know that this week's film is directed by Jesús Franco, the man responsible for The Castle of Fu Manchu (1969). You should come watch it with us :D #Monsterdon
Fifteen minutes until #Monsterdon~! Set up a filter to avoid it! Get the movie cued up to join in! All other eventualities are your own responsibility! C'mon people get your shit together!
You think Dracula had a public defender before he was convicted and sent to Frankenstein's prison? I worry about his rights being protected. #Monsterdon
I see someone paid the Dennis Price. #Monsterdon
You think that mist is natural? Nah, they set fire to a passenger plane just off camera. #Monsterdon
Aaaand there's the low-rent condo of Fu Manchu... The rusty garden shed of Fu Manchu... Fu Manchu's local eatery here... #Monsterdon
I'm always shocked by the mysterious powers attributed to bats in these movies.
Hovering. Knocking on doors. Opening windows. #Monsterdon
Oh Jesus, no. #Monsterdon
"Let's just take the birth control pills on schedule, this is a Franco movie after all..." #Monsterdon
Heh, they, uh, didn't get the grey paint QUITE all the way up to his hairline did they ^^;;; #Monsterdon
Cat's like, that was my meal ticket you BASTARD #Monsterdon
"Oh, sounds like a woman being murdered in the next room. Huh. Well, not my problem." #Monsterdon
So, Franco was credited as a writer for this flick. Do you think the script looked like, "Scene 1, act 1: Woman: Groan. Groan. Groan."? #Monsterdon
Oh hey, someone spoke!
Stop that.
GAH, JESUS, ENOUGH WITH THE EYEBALL CLOSEUPS D: #Monsterdon
Oh hey, turns out SHE was the Clapper. Wondered where they put that thing. #Monsterdon
And now, enjoy a horse's ass. #Monsterdon
Glad the horses seem to speak his language, 'cos I sure as hell don't. #Monsterdon
Are we sure Jesus Franco didn't also direct Manos: The Hands of Fate?
I'm just saying, dingy camera work, almost non-existent dialogue, bad dubbing... #Monsterdon
Man, those Jehovas Witnesses just don't give up, huh. #Monsterdon
And now, Dracula on the Haunted Harpsichord. #Monsterdon
