monsterdon
After a week of prepping for #Monsterdon (updating poll info options, updating collection, collating links etc)... I forgot to download the bloody film! And of course THAT is when my internet decides to go funky. (Did a speed check last night & it was spiking & crashing every second!)
I got so frustrated trying various options that I began to transform, howl at the moon & savage the local populace. But I eventually gave up, let the torrent take its sweet time & will watch it tonight.
🐺
Oh I almost forgot, Happy pride Godzilla fans!

Godzilla: Final Wars
Oh good. Now they're rescuing the comic relief. #monsterdon #HawkTheSlayer
over the years (years omg) of hosting #monsterdon, I've heard from a lot of people that it's their little safe space. It's two hours a week where they can take a breath, laugh and connect with other people and not think about everything heavy and overwhelming in the world
Rest is not ignorance. You can't face real monsters if you're burnt out and hopeless. Sometimes, a little time with fake monsters is exactly what gives people the strength to keep going
Oh, hi, I didn't see you there. It must be because I'm distracted by the #Monsterdon happening in about 30 minutes (7 MDT).
If you don't want to learn what happens when Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster, then you just might want to mute the #Monsterdon hashtag (Preferences -> Filters -> Add New in the Mastodon web UI, for example). or Or OR you could check out #MonsterdonAlert for details, and you could follow that hashtag and watch along! And you could find out with us the answers to life's most important questions, such as: What happens when Frankenstein meets the Space Monster?
finished watching The Evil Force 🌕🌗🌑🌑🌑
Very little action for most of the film.
Watched in #Monsterdon watch party on Mastodon.
#Monsterdon Soon!
Well right now some Ultraman.
Ghost boy? Oh hey that theme park with the griffin.

WHY is "Hawk" the worst actor in this film? Everyone else so far is half-decent English television grade, but Hawk here is being played by Plank, apparently
Another #Monsterdon is in the can!
Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!
Tonight's feature, #Bog, from 1979, didn't get ... cough ... bogged down in silly details like plot or character development. Instead we got,
- Dynamite fishing!
- Fry the Gun Elf!
- Bog Witch!
- Hypodemic Nurdle!
- Bog Tumor!
- Fifteen minutes of murky underwater footage!
- Bog Eggs!
- Blood Scent Generator!
- Slime Trail!
- Flammable Bog Monster!
- Question Mark Ending!
I would love it if I could hear all the dialogue
Oh hey it's time to settle in for #monsterdon
Another #Monsterdon is in the can!
Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!
Tonight's feature, #TheRaven , from 1963, was another Roger Corman film. Ties to the Edgar Allen Poe piece were superficial at best, with Richard Matheson (the screenplay writer) choosing to take a comedic view to the project. The film was shot in only fifteen days, and contained a large amount of ad-libbed lines, mostly from Peter Lorre. Highlights included:
- Vincent Price!
- Talking raven!
- Magic potion stew!
- Diabolical Mind Control!
- Raspberry Jam!
- Precious Viper!
- Finger Manipulation Battle!
tonight! for #monsterdon's viewing of Hercules (1983) i'm planning on doing an unofficial ad-free bootleg-ass owncast livestream of the movie again at https://miru.miyaku.media 🗼
⏰ pre-stream countdown with music from the movie, Ultra Q E26 “Burn On, Glory”, and trailer starts at ~8:15pm eastern
🎥 Hercules (1983) starts at 9pm eastern (English audio, hardcoded English subtitles)
🍿 stick around for more same-cast-different-director shenanigans with The Seven Magnificent Gladiators (1983, English audio with hardcoded English subtitles)

Maybe you can get him to eat the silver bullet by hiding it in some food, did anyone think of that

🫵 QUICK! Inside the stone mouth! 🗿
Tonight, on #monsterdon : It's 1985's The Adventures of Hercules 💪 ! The answer to the question: "nobody really liked the last movie we made, what if we made it again? But kind of different! But not *too* fundamentally different, it's not like these actors have much range!"
Come, be one of us and post along! You won't regret it too much!
Streaming free on Tubi.
Minutes away, on https://miru.miyaku.media/, some sort of cobbled-together Italian Godzilla movie / clip show which Toho pretends doesn't exist \o/

On last night's #monsterdon, Lou Ferrigno is tricked into making a sequel to last weeks Hercules (yes https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089271/trivia/?item=tr2392151&ref_=ext_shr_lnk).
Later, in @ryans #wrongfrogs double feature, director Luigi Cozzi mixes Godzilla, WW2 footage and questionable taste into something that shouldn't be, according to our poll and Toho. But it is.
Replay the toots and watch along:

finished watching FantastiCozzi 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
Documentary on Luigi Cozzi, director of #Monsterdon #Fantasy #SciFi #BMovies like Starcrash, Hercules etc
Interesting but would have been more so if they had others (e.g. Argento, actors & producers etc) also speaking about him & his films, not just him.
