In the category of "Christopher Lee gets a paycheck and star billing for a few days work," I give #EndOfTheWorld1977 3 out of 5 stars. He's there for a terrific opening sequence, and roughly the final third. Boy, were we glad to see him. Our heroes needed emoting lessons to sell the disasters happening off screen. At least Lee took the material seriously, no matter how confusing and dull it got.

The real star was Sue Lyon's hairdresser. Her hair was sleek and perfect, whether done up in a shiny sphere, or hanging like a frozen waterfall. Never a strand out of place. Except for that one scene where they wanted you to know that shit was getting real because she had schmutz on her face and her hair was a bit windblown.

That was a #Monsterdon all right. Thanks @Taweret for hosting. Thanks @cherizilla for the Bingo card archive. Thanks @miru for the stream.

Hey, the director's cut is over now! I'm not sure what they cut out, but the version I watched certainly makes you yearn for the planetary explosion.

Thank you for hosting @Taweret, and sorry I opened the wrong version. Have a great week everyone!

You know, going to his planet doesn't sound so bad. Then again, the fact that he's destroying ours sort of belies the whole non-destructive angle.

Big thanks to @Taweret for this fine example of low-budget 70s film. Not quite horror, not quite sci-fi, Christopher Lee and the Six Nuns carried us through roughly an hour and a half of thin plot and much padding.

Much smoking, multiple coffee teases but I don't think anybody ever actually *drank* any coffee.

Secret government listening post in an abandoned zoo, just for fun.

Death count in the billions, which I guess is something.

Anyway now that there's nunthing left of earth we may as well join this movie in being launched into space

Good job as always team, and thanks again to @Taweret for hosting!

@kshernandez @pineheap I think I would have preferred to see the movie that gets all the spots on your bingo card.

#monsterdon #endOfTheWorld1977

@ottaross ah, I missed that! At least that solves the mystery of why I was so badly out of sync. And I needed that mystery because the movie just was not holding my attention.

@bunnyhero yup! I still have 18 minutes to go. I envy those that had the short version.
