Some Japanese scientist furiously taking notes. 60 years later:

@strangefour@retro.pizza Sounded more like lazy parenting. "Yeah Johnny, go out into the garden and catch a specific fly while mommy takes a nap". But the lad did it.

Trivia: 'Shot on a 25 day schedule in the UK, a big difference to the 15 day schedule used in the US for the previous Roger Corman "Poe" movies. The director attributed the extra time to the British crew's obsession with taking "tea breaks."'
20 years later James Cameron had the same problem on the set of Aliens. #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #thetombofligeia1964 #teabreak

100 hungry foxes, 1 aristocrat, 1 UFC cage. Kickstarter pending. #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature
Turns out the blind housekeepers actress released an album at 72 with deliberately bad music, "Music to Suffer By": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpFXMokACWc
'Anderson made bad singing a legitimate, if entirely unnecessary, form of entertainment. She reveled in the limitations and deficiencies in her singing voice and her publicity proudly proclaimed her as "the World's Most Horrible Singer."'

"What could happen?"
Langoliers, most likely.

On last night's #monsterdon, a jellyfish/trashbag/man-hybrid tries to get revenge on conga-dancing pricks, feat. Neil Sedakas greatest hit.
Afterwards, on the #monsterdondoublefeature in @ryan@social.miyaku.media's stream, the same director made a Jaws rip-off with real shark footage boring somehow.

@70sgayspaceangel@mas.to Sir, a second remake has hit the cinema https://www.imdb.com/title/tt41816914 #monsterdon
Replying to
@klu9@ohai.social Perhaps some contrast programming. The opposite of Vincent Price. Peter Cushing (who often played the monster hunter, whereas Price is often a villain). We had six #monsterdon movies with Peter Cushing:
The Gorgon (1964)
Dr. Who and the Daleks (1965)
Twins of Evil (1971)
Tales from the Crypt (1972)
Horror Express (1972)
The Beast Must Die (1974)
Or just Laserblast every week.
A bit hard to be concerned about sharks when the movie takes place on dry land. #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

@Terencio@mastodon.social @klu9@ohai.social Which of our movies had Kung fu though. Maybe Godzilla Final Wars.
As for Space Women, the selection is bigger. 3 "Girl" (https://monsterdon-replay.gerlach.dev/?s=Girl) and 3 Women/Woman Movies (https://monsterdon-replay.gerlach.dev/?s=Wom)
Cat Women of the Moon, for Space Women. Or The Wrestling Women vs. the Aztec Mummy for Kung-Fu (sort of) women.

@ryan@social.miyaku.media I wonder what it was. Maybe an usher rattling your seat and spitting soda in your face.

In 1973 Florence Marly wrote a sequel to Queen of Blood, Space Boy. In it, the alien queen is called Valana/Velarna https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Boy_(1973_film) #remonsterdon #monsterdon
Another night, another comet on our last #monsterdon. Followed by a Nissan commercial, according to the comments.

@Taweret@timeloop.cafe Perhaps Night of the Demons (1988) would work as a double feature @ryan@social.miyaku.media? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093624
Or Night of the Creeps (1986, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091630) Night of the Eagle (1962, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056279) Night of the Seagulls (1975, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073461) Night of the Bloodbeast (1958, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051993) ...
Or Malam Satu Suro (Night of the Satu Suro, 1988, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12118230) which looks great.
welcome to the hydraulic press channel #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature
Fancy a lava cave, the color orange and an 80-minute runtime that should've been 8? Last night's #monsterdon movies each had all three!

Awaiting gigantic Martian fireballs, electrical storms, screeching creatures, haunted cities and a spikd pendulum of death. #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature
Waiting for that ULTRA-DEPTH 3D effect... #monsterdondoublefeature #monsterdon
Forgot Dennis Hopper was in this, of #monsterdondoublefeature fame.

At least they put all of their budget on the screen. #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature
Three #monsterdon movies tonight, three caves, two with lava.

Get your Devil Girl of Mars memes ready. The Wizard of Mars (1965), in ULTRA-DEPTH pseudo 3D, next on https://miru.miyaku.media/ #monsterdon
Right now he is 50% fly. Instead of catching a fly, they could just catch about 10 men, let him merge with them one after the other and bring his flyness down to 0.05%, good enough.

On last night's #monsterdon, Vincent Price in his suave prime. Followed by a slightly older Vincent Price, caked in make-up, fighting a cat.

Two rather good #monsterdon movies last night, both featuring Vincent Price. Bat vs. Cougar, Fly vs. Spider, and the riveting search for a single specific fly in a huge garden.
