Word for April 25: #Insect
Attack of the Giant Ants
- Blondie (1976)
Early Blondie, but already ignoring genre rules and defying labels.

Busy pitching my "future #Monsterdon " movie script to studios:
...
AI achieves AGI on the eve of Tesla enabling fully autonomous driving. Cars begin hunting humans, and noone is safe! Our protagonist desperately needs to navigate the length of Route 66 to return to her family
It can join "The Birds", Triffids, Them!
... What should I call it?
- Carpocalypse Now
- WayMo' Road Deaths
- CARS!
it took me a MINUTE but i finally own and am wearing a #monsterdon shirt

last week i watched ROBOT HOLOCAUST (1987) and wondered if i’d seen it before because the theme song sounded familiar. it turns out that it’s basically the same theme as LASERBLAST (same producer) haha #monsterdon

@Taweret I added THE BAT PEOPLE (1974) post to your #Monsterdon #WatchPartyCalendar listing for this Sunday the 27th, along with @CactuarJoe and @davesdogmaggie 's helpful links
It's fun following #WestWed and getting to have the "I'm not participating but I'm looking" experience that so many people do with #Monsterdon.

#ThingsMovieCharactersInvent
An H.G. Welles character invented something when the story was made into a movie:
Cavorite. What to use to fly to the moon with. #monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon
A bonus friend appeared!
So nice to see @Configures again. Been a while since we last chatted in person. Always a delight and I am now pretty close to convinced #monsterdon is worth staying up for, even on a school night.

Looks like The Bat People will be off-brand vampires or werewolves of a sort?

Full disclosure: I loathe this movie. I've only watched the #MST3k episode a couple times over the last two decades.
You know how Invasion of the Star Creatures really thought it was a hilarious movie, and that makes it super hard to watch? The Bat People is the serious version of that. It takes itself *so very seriously* that you get contact embarrassment.
Like, you're a monster movie. Please stop trying to be Days of Our Lives.
Oh, it's also on YouTube with Spanish subtitles if that's your jam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UxtR_fvMng
This Sunday at 9pm Eastern it's #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! Join the us as we watch and poke fun at a very bad movie!
This week is THE BAT PEOPLE (1974), which #MST3k fans will know as It Lives By Night. Come and be lulled gently to sleep by a movie that wants to be a relationship drama but inexplicably has a bat stuck in the middle of it!
It's not available on Archive.org, but it is on Tubi, over here: https://tubitv.com/movies/100011938/the-bat-people
Of course they needed a man in order to communicate #Monsterdon #firstmeninthemoon
Look at this magnificent fellow!
(Also, I love how the fake phone camera bokeh makes it look like an action figure!)

I'm watching the movie "It's a Wonderful Knife", just in case anyone thinks my bad movie watching is limited to #Monsterdon
It's a movie that boldy asks "What if It's a Wonderful Life, but more stabby?"
It contains the line (from a cop) "Could we get some more of that caution tape? I feel like we need to be a little more... cautious."
... I kinda love this dumpster fire.
