Folks it is one hour until #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! If you want to avoid a bunch of nerds tooting about a goofy movie, best set up a tag filter.

TURN DOWN YOUR LIGHTS
(where eye-plicable)
BETTE DAVIS, NOOOOOOOOOO #Monsterdon
...Okay, we get it. Eyeball. Can we move on now? #Monsterdon
Man, hypnotoad last week and hypno Z. Arkoff this week. #Monsterdon
Diana Van Der Vlis, that's Dutch for, "of the Vlis." #Monsterdon
Holy eyebags, chief #Monsterdon
...This is gonna be another one of those "you only use 10% of your brain" bullshit fests isn't it 9_9 #Monsterdon
"That's light"
Tastes great, less filling. #Monsterdon
Men in these movies are always accusing women of having a temper for saying things like, "Stop treating me like a child"
They should just skip to hitting the man and put that accusation to actual use. #Monsterdon
"My god, you've trained a monkey to flip all three switches! You madman!" #Monsterdon
"What did he see?"
He saw he was in a Roger Corman movie and died of embarrassment. #Monsterdon
"After tonight's work you can call me Diane"
Yeah there's nothing more intimate than killing a monkey. #Monsterdon
"I'll bring them much more than a report."
Dunkin' Donuts, here we come! #Monsterdon
He's gone Plaid! #Monsterdon
Sam, I've invented a tailor's DREAM! #Monsterdon
Always with the penetration in these movies 9_9 #Monsterdon
Oh hey, it's that guy. He played a lewd Colonel on M*A*S*H*. #Monsterdon
She's full of bubble wrap. #Monsterdon
Sorry kid, your surgeons are too busy fighting over their bruised egos to think about you. Enjoy the free coffin! #Monsterdon
Aw yeah, do the slipped rotator cuff! #Monsterdon
Yep, this is a film that's fully Cormanized. #Monsterdon
"You know, you're quite lovely."
I'm committing sexual assault just being in the same room with you :D #Monsterdon
...On the other hand, he does have to see the ancient doctor over there nude, so it's a tradeoff. #Monsterdon
You're MAD, James, MAD! #Monsterdon
Jeez, you guys gonna clamp *each artery individually*? Hold up, there's a corpuscle over there you missed, get the BIG clamp out. #Monsterdon
"I see veins, organs!"
♪ Who could ask for anything more! ♫
Wow, what a fragile window. #Monsterdon
AND ONCE AGAIN WE'RE AT PASADENA DAYS '69
how do we ALWAYS end up here -_-; #Monsterdon
Whaaaat? An untrustworthy CARNEY? Never! #Monsterdon
"No secrets, there's nothing left to fight about!"
Hoo boy >_>;; #Monsterdon
Wow, that's a helluva widow's peak. #Monsterdon
No wonder she's in pain, she's got a textbook illustration of a circulatory system inside her. #Monsterdon
"The effects of the compound are still unpredictable."
So I'm chugging it down like a water wheel! #Monsterdon
Don't look at my Special Eyes! #Monsterdon
Don Rickles plays a very believable scumbag. #Monsterdon
Compounding bad decisions, that's the doctor's super power, not the eye thing. Bad Decisions²
...Yeah, okay, so you're gonna try to play the tables at a FIXED CASINO
Bad Decisions CUBED #Monsterdon
He's gonna get chucked out of this place like the man he threw out the window earlier. #Monsterdon
Yeah, if anyone else had discovered this x-ray vision drug they'd be rich and famous and have everything
This guy's losing everything because he's an *asshole* #Monsterdon
Cool eyeballs, tho #Monsterdon
You know how Frogs was really just people slipping on things and dying while frogs looked on?
This movie is "a dude who HAPPENS to have X-ray vision makes a series of bad decisions which he probably would have made anyway, which ruin his life." #Monsterdon
They're gonna end this film like Red Zone Cuba. He drove aaaaaall the way to hell. #Monsterdon
He lost control because he saw a uranium deposit out in the desert. Next he's gonna steal a steam shovel and make a crooked deal with a dishonest mining foreman. #Monsterdon
The theremin thinks this is a lot spookier than it is. #Monsterdon
Completely ignoring the very obviously hurt and in need of assistance man. Good job Christians. #Monsterdon
...Do Not™ #Monsterdon
Oh, so that was HIS eye at the beginning of the film. Cool! #Monsterdon
Yeah, again, most of that film happened not because the doctor could see into other spectrums of light, but because he was *an asshole.* #Monsterdon
Still, beats the electric crab movie hands down. #Monsterdon
But yeah if you want an honest title for that movie it's "X: The Jerk with X-Ray Eyes" #Monsterdon
@CactuarJoe I think those are a customization option in Cyberpunk 2077.
@CactuarJoe oh gods no, the crab movie was the best one we've done
as a monsterdon i mean
that was fucking _amazing_
@CactuarJoe if I could see through objects I would be normal about it
