how would you have managed to let hundreds of people into your zoo before realizing that all the animals have been absorbed into some guys arm and their corpses are lying empty all over the ground #monsterdon
i was sittin ineedoway i woz, ennisaw eshamblin blob creepin up th wall. looked likee cactus et a zoo it did #monsterdon
if you keep saying the goo reaching the mice will kill all humanity then maybe stop leaving the goo unattended in a room with mice in it! #monsterdon
"yes men, your orders are to scour through the sewers looking for a huge cactus bag of zoo creatures" #monsterdon
if a hideous agglomeration of alien cactoid zoo creatures absorbs the royal family, does it become the rightful ruler of the british empire #monsterdon
even though the cactoid has absorbed many life forms after which it could choose any body form, it has chosen "cactus octopus" which i think reveals the best that earthly body plans have to offer #monsterdon
from the cactoid's point of view, it is just an ARG player in a game that is baslcally pokemon except you invade non-galactic planets and try and absorb all their different species before they can kill you #monsterdon
@jonny I would play that game.
it would actually be the most fun katamari game of all time, if instead of just growing a bigger ball, you just became a more and more badass blob that could take hybrid forms picked from all the different creatures you had absorbed #monsterdon
i have sort of zoned out from the movie thinking about what the blob is up to, and why are they in like a mausoleum or palace or whatever this is #monsterdon
wait what happened? #monsterdon
having to rewind to see how they killed the alien because i totally missed it zoning out thinking about the alien. they just like zapped it and problem solved? the goo can absorb all terrestrial life but is vulnerable to electricity? #monsterdon
"in my simple bible way i did a lot of praying" who in the FUCK IS THIS GUY #monsterdon
@jonny he is... Bible Cop. Simple Bible Cop. #monsterdon
who the hell is quatermass and why does he have his own space program!?!?!? #monsterdon
did the wife just die from seeing the cactus arm??? where did she go!?!!? #monsterdon
@jonny
I thought she just sorta freaked out and screamed herself into a delirium, as women in 50s horror movies are want to do. 🤷♂️
this movie being two of 6 episodes of a tv show explains EVERYTHING #monsterdon
edit: wait no this was a remake of a tv show that was never recorded lol... so it's just based on someone's memory of watching a tv show???

The Quatermaxx Xperiment (1955) - 3/5
They had cactoid alien that eats a zoo and becomes a library of biological form in the palm of their hands and they fumbled it.
@jonny They probably still had the scripts.
@apLundell @jonny And the screenwriter.
@bk1e
@apLundell
3 hours sounds about right for developing the lore around the pan-biological life form
@jonny she died of starvation bc she mis-heard cactopus as cocktopus and was waiting in the bedroom ass up
@jonny She got shocked right out of the movie!
@jonny She got Cotton-Eye Joed.
@jonny same boat here lmao
@jonny they're relaunching the space travel experiment that turned that dude into a fucked up octopus
@jonny definitely yes, that's in the Succession Act of 1548
Are you sure this hasn't happened?
