Tonight was my 9 yr old son’s first Monsterdon and he had a blast. Thanks @Taweret and the #monsterdon family.

On Halloween, I released a new short film, Lajok The Night Dancer. ICYMI, here it is again, a revenge fantasy where dance, instead of guns or karate, enables the main character to get justice. It's based on the most popular character in Ugandan mythology. This is a small thread about the making of this film and you can enjoy it free on my #PeerTube channel @dilmandila

🚨 #Monsterdon Bingo FYI 🚨
Starting next week, I have a schedule conflict and won't be able to do Monsterdon for a while. But no worries, I'll schedule bingo cards to go out on Sundays.
Because technology is fickle, If you don't see the Bingo post go out by 20 minutes to showtime, someone please grab a card from the archive and share it.
Weekly cards will be tagged #MonsterdonBingo. Thanks!

#monsterdon incoming! Mute the hashtag if you want to continue to live in blissful ignorance of what an "asphyx" is. (in the Mastodon web UI, for example, you can do this by clicking the hashtag and adding a new filter to block it)
Tonight on Monsterdon we're watching The Asphyx (1972). I've watched the trailer, and all I can really tell is that this movie thinks that it is Very Scary, and it is probably Not That At All.

IT'S #MONSTERDON
we will be watching:
Tales From the Crypt (1972)
BECAUSE
it has an evil Santa in it and this week is
Monsterdon is raising money for charity this week and you can win some cool stuff that monsterdonners have made!
its a giveaway. (not a raffle) we're not collecting money or selling tickets or anything
how it works:
any time this week before monsterdon (or like now if you want 👀) make a donation to charity, screenshot it (scrub your personal info! we don't want it!) and DM the screenshot to:
(NOT to ME. we want to keep the tally straight)
we are recommending as charities the Trans Lifeline and the Rainbow Railroad but you can give to a different charity if you want
donate any amount you like (also if you can't afford to donate you can still be entered. you will have the same odds of winning something regardless, one entry per person, void where prohibited, etc etc)
deadline for donations: the end of the monsterdon movie on Sunday night!
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, it’s DONATION MATCH-terdon!
@paco and I (@steggy ) will match #Monsterdon donations to The Trevor Project, the Rainbow Railroad, or Trans Lifeline, up to a total of $3,000.
LET’S DO THIS!
What is #MonsterdonSavesChristmas ?
Glad you asked!
from @Tarawet, our fearless host:
Monstordon CANNOT be missed tomorrow at 8pm CT
The movie?
The classic wholesome story of giant ants who help people and are nice:
THEM!
Whew! Made it home just in time for #Monsterdon ! Mute the hashtag if you don't want to get spammed with Kaiju nonsense for the next 1:45
We've watching another Godzilla move tonight, and while I am excited, I just don't see how as many things can possibly happen in this movie as our last Godzilla move, which had a things / second rate that asymptotically approached infinity.
who says your movie hase to have a "resolution" or "satisfying conclusion"
those things are for cowards
you can just stop your movie at an arbitrary point and roll the credits. no one can stop you
Y'all. I am so excited for #monsterdon tonight.
I have no idea how I did not know that Masters of the Universe (1987) existed. I was not like a huge He-Man fan or anything, but look, I was an 8 year old suburban American boy in 1987, how on earth did I not know that there was a live action movie of this.
It looks *awful*, and I am so here for this.
It's on IA: https://archive.org/details/masters-of-the-universe-1987_202304, watch it with us at 7 MST!
And warm up with this absolute banger: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FR7wOGyAzpw

CRITTERS!
It's time for #Monsterdon
I will be watching a bad monster movie with a couple hundred of my closest friends for the next couple of hours. Join in! Critters (1986) is streaming free on Tubi! Or mute the #monsterdon tag to miss our shenanigans Or wonder what the hell I'm tooting about! Or watch a totally different movie and pretend our toots are about that! I'm not your boss! (Unless I am, sorry.)
Are you yeti for #Monsterdon?
Watch along, mute the tag, or prepare for a torrent of million-year old jokes to be unfrozen from the ice!
Root post for #Monsterdon: LASERBLAST!
(If you don't want to see me, and others, posting for two hours about kid from the 70s finding an alien laser, and, well, blasting, with it, mute the hashtag, this thread, or me)
The trailer for this movie seems to fit the title exactly: it mostly consists of Laser Blasts, plus a couple shots of E.T.-ripoff aliens[*] . However, I am suspicious: knowing the trailers for #Monsterdon -tier movies, I bet they put every single special effect that they could afford to film in the trailer, and the movie consists of 2 minutes of action and 83 minutes of characters I couldn't care less about saying things I don't want to hear.
So: go on this journey with me and let's find out together!
* Wait, this movie came out four years BEFORE E.T., which raises the fascinating possibility that Spielberg ripped of his alien design FROM THIS THING, HWAT?
