Folks it is now ONE HOUR until #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party. Best set up a hashtag filter if you want to avoid it.

If you want to join in, this week we're watching THE ADVENTURES OF HERCULES (1985), the sequel to last week's Hercules. It's still got Lou Ferrigno, which kinda surprised me -- usually the Herc of Choice doesn't come back when they do A Second Hercules Movie.

Anyway, the flick's free with ads over on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/476693/the-adventures-of-hercules

Or you can download from Archive.org: https://archive.org/details/the.-adventures.-of.-hercules.-hd.-1985

Either way, should be a blast. See you in an hour!

Whoops, lost track of time. Three minutes until #MONSTERDON :o

Gettin' all the wub wub wub #Monsterdon
Hey, nice moon. ♫ In the not too distant future~ ♪ #Monsterdon

The mightiest of all men! Hercules!

Me:

#Monsterdon

...Uh, call me crazy but I don't remember that robot fly making baby noises last time. #Monsterdon
Oh man, remember when Herc fucked up the hydrology of a whole region just because he was too lazy to pick up a shovel? Wow, what a hero. #Monsterdon
...I gotta say, as far as recaps go, this one is not what I'd call illuminating. I think they're just kind of making it obvious how little sense the first film made. #Monsterdon
Guys I was already sleepy and Watch This Shit You Saw Already But In Five Second Clips is *not* helping. #Monsterdon
AND LEWIS COATES DID HIS DARNDEST! #Monsterdon

"oNE DAY FOOLISH AND ENVIOUS GODS--"

"Be quiet, maiden!"

I'm posting on Reddit!

#Monsterdon

"The moon is high!"

And so a-

#Monsterdon

THE BEAST OF TANAGRA!?!? #Monsterdon
Real Xena-level costume quality here. #Monsterdon

much writing

very script

wow

#Monsterdon

"I'd be willing to die"

Listen lady, *I'LL* make the jokes about the atrocious writing, thank you.

#Monsterdon

...You couldn't find footage of a bird flying at sunset? You had to do a seven-frame animation of one? #Monsterdon

"Oh Mothra, hear me..."

#Monsterdon

I WAS JOKING O_O

#Monsterdon

Yes, thank you, we saw the recap, can we move on? #Monsterdon
Hey, Zeus. New perm? Looks good. #Monsterdon

Hey, UFO.

Unidentified Ferrigno Object :D

#Monsterdon

First thing back on earth, what's Herc do? Get in a scrap with a bear. #Monsterdon
...I take it back, it's not a bear, it's an alsatian fursona. #Monsterdon
Wait, it was the LIGHTNING BOLT's fursona? #Monsterdon
"I know that because I hold the lifesaver of prophecy" #Monsterdon
...So she hired Hegseth? #Monsterdon
Call me obtuse, but I suspect the glowing thing does not contain the secrets of *darkness* per se. #Monsterdon
Gnnnnnnnnnnhuuuuuurrrrrr this lucite is HEAVY #Monsterdon
Ha ha ha lady gave him the zip zop of death :D #Monsterdon
XD XD XD what IS this scene??? #Monsterdon
"UGH god it's in my EYE" #Monsterdon
So they went to all the trouble of getting themselves a badass mercenary to fight Herc, only to gut him like a chicken to bring THIS guy back to life? #Monsterdon
I dunno man, even the soundtrack seems bored by this sequel. #Monsterdon

Urania kidnapped by Slime People!? That's w--

#Monsterdon

We rented a pneumatic catapult and by god we're gonna use it. #Monsterdon
Look, the first Ator movie had better cinematography than this film. Do you understand how tragic that is? #Monsterdon
Herc, suddenly oiled up. #Monsterdon

"They look so real..."

They're... They're people in caked makeup. C'mon. #Monsterdon

"Fight them!"

Oh, Herc's a tactical master all right. #Monsterdon

Again, Lou's physique actually seems to cause him more problems than it's worth. That pointing back gesture he made? Stiff as FUCK. He'd be more convincing as powerful if he were LESS buff. #Monsterdon
Whoops, statue is having trouble standing still :P #Monsterdon
What a terribly proportioned Medusa :/ #Monsterdon
