This poor monster. It just wants to set the world on fire & stop our dependence on oil.

WHOM AMONGST US DOES NOT? Ultraman/SSSP is the real monster.

Berlin, Paris, Moscow, all silent.

But good thing we're isolated & rich, we'll be fine!

Don't open the door! I'm going to open that door!

I only planned for 3 people!

Pfft.

The true force of the atom is mutating people into zombies! And also unviewably dark day-for-night shots.

"He's a freak, of this new atomic world of ours!", is what people have said about me all my life.

#monsterdon #year2889

YES, every movie needs a beach or swimming scene so the female cast can get almost-nekkid!

When they said "pool", I thought natural pool. Nope, just a swimming pool, implausibly cleaned without a poolboy.

Do you believe in mental telepathy? No, these characters would need mental processes first.

The first taste is never good, like this movie.

#monsterdon #year2889

SWEET! They've added fog machines to the unviewable day-for-night!

"Sometimes I have a feeling of doom." Possibly brought on by EVERYONE DYING.

"Welfare of mankind. OUR kind. WHITE kind." "The girls… should bear children as soon as possible!"

ANIMALS vill be BRED unt SLAUGHTERED!

#monsterdon #year2889

It's Adam & Eve, not Steve & Joanna, old man. I don't want a "Human race" bred from these honkies.

"Someone was calling to me! Take me home!"

"He'll kill you Steve! Go murder a guy!" But won't do it his own damn self.

Nice Mina Harker scene. A rare moment of filmmaking in this film!

#monsterdon #year2889

Closure: NONE! The BEGINNING! So you can have a horrible Garden of Eden, cliché "and the planet was Earth" ending. Fuck this whole thing. Everyone is poorer for having seen this film.

You know what did this well? The World, the Flesh and the Devil (1959). That was a GOOD take on post-apocalypse breeding, and ends in THE BEGINNING but it's not shit.

Gappa has more cinematography, acting, & music in the intro than all of Year 2889.

"We're going to steal animals & pretty girls from the South Seas. Ha ha Japanese imperialism is fun!"

OH, random island in the Pacific, that happens all the time.

#monsterdon #gappa

A thing that has never occurred in history: Native people happy to see the invaders who mass-murdered their parents a generation ago.

"But we made a theme park land just for you!"

I'm not super amused by the blackface, but eh, it's the '60s. !timecapsule, you know?

And now, the ceremonial gravel quarry! Holy land of all B-movies!

The statue looks like their comic relief fisher guy.

"Go back to the office, marry a coworker, have babies!" is a common refrain in these movies, but at least here it's meant sarcastically.

YES, giant eggs are always good, take it and make omarisu!

#monsterdon #gappa

@mdhughes That statue does NOT look just like the ones on Easter Island! This explorer is ignorant and doesn't even know it. #monsterdon

"Will you find me a new Mom? How about you marry the help, like on The Nanny?"

Secret monster door! Mom & Dad monster!

Is that the moral of this, that a baby (girl or monster) needs parents?

UGH, now it's doing day-for-night, too. I hate this. Just make everything be in day.

Toy submarine sighted! Water doesn't behave right at that scale.

#monsterdon #gappa

Yes, torture the baby monster, that'll make it love you.

LOL "English" almost managed.

Attention giant monsters, please file a flight plan and install proper tail lights.

#monsterdon #gappa

Monster raised in captivity doesn't know how to do natural things like speak Island language or rampage, only sit in cage.

Reptiles mostly do not have paternal feelings, they drop, maybe guard them, then let them go. Crocodiles are a rare exception!

Are they gonna make Mt Fuji erupt‽ That'd be fucking epic.

#monsterdon #gappa

Well that was a movie. Not a really good movie, the resolution is just "convince a jackass to quit harassing the kaiju wildlife", but sure. Complete plot, monsters, and some explosions.

I didn't hate anyone or anything from it, except the rampant imperialism & racism. Borderline on the sexism, it's *aware* there's options, they're just not popular.

★★★☆☆
#monsterdon #gappa

I couldn't even give Year 2889 a rating. Just make it stop.
