THIS SUNDAY at 9pm Eastern (that's 1am Monday UTC) it's #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! Come watch a goofy monster movie with a bunch of nerds!
This week, our monthlong Vincent Price-fest continues with THE BAT (1959), a murder mystery involving money, madmen in costumes, and you guessed it, BATS. Also stars Agnes Moorehead, so it should be pretty good :D
The flick's available free with ads over on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/351000/the-bat
Or you can download from Archive.org over here: https://archive.org/details/The_Bat.mpeg
Since it's public domain, even Wikipedia has a copy you can watch: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bat_(1959_film)
See you this Sunday!

"Lock yourself in and keep quiet."
After all, we know for sure there aren't any secret passages or hidden pathways in this house that a killer could use to sneak up on you!

The thing about the 1950s is that the men were all kind of vaguely box-shaped. #Monsterdon

"I'm sure we're not going to go running through the house shooting at each other."

"Are you sure about this?"
I dunno, it could've been someone ELSE being played by Vincent Price. Fuck off, flyboy!

To hang your wife once may be considered bad luck, but to hang your wife twice begins to look like carelessness.

They lock me in a "haunted" house to try and drive me mad but when spooky shit starts happening I just go "Oh cool, are you using the angled glass trick for that shot? The flexible hose rope from before was super cool, can I see that again?"

"They've been caretakers here for years."
The husband is a professional face grabber and his wife likes to ride segways.

Chill, Nora, she's just into bondage. Look, see? Informed consent and everything.

How'd you feel about HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL (1959) last night? You should vote in the poll about it :D

Quoting
Welp, as Vince saunters over to the court to be exonerated of murder by a jury of 1950s white men, we say aloha and turn to the one last thing we do before leaving the theater:
Was HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL (1959) the WORST #Monsterdon movie of the year?

"What's the use of saying good night?"
Sorry, are your MANNERS spectral as well?

Hey, they got her into a gauzy nightdress. The movie's true goal has been achieved. #Monsterdon

So, thinking back to the early parts of House on Haunted Hill...
So the caretakers were in on it? Did Annabelle pay them off? Did she, like, train the old lady to stay stock still while looking as witchy as possible?
"Now hold still, dear" her husband could be heard saying, "I'm gonna pull the rope tied to the hand cart so you float up out of the darkness at the young lady."
"And then the closet?"
"Right, I have to leave you in the closet until she finds you so you can spook her again."
"And HOW much are we getting for this?"
"Oh oodles, honey."
"Better fuckin' be."

Yeah, no, at this point if she was canny at all she'd have immediately turned around and left.
