Folks, it is an hour until #Monsterdon, the weekly monster movie watch party. Now's a good time to mute the tag if you want to avoid it.

If you'd like to join in, this week we're watching NIGHT OF THE COMET (1984), a horror movie about a dusty comet, apparently. It's on Tubi and Pluto, or you can download it from Archive.org over here: archive.org/details/night.-of.

We start at 9pm Eastern time! Be there or be Mondale!

This is going to blow all your minds, but I grew up in the 80's, played Tempest (still have the PC port) and my initials are almost right (DKM). This movie is about me!

I'm going to keep a photo of these fine folks in my wallet and tell people that they're my family.

I first saw tonight's movie at an age to absolutely terrify me, so well done movie makers.
Terrified as I was that everyone I knew would be turned to red dust I also saw advantages to everyone but me being dead and I get to drive cars (I think I was 10)

Tonight’s #Monsterdon feature: Night of the Comet. May it be the most 80s thing we see for some time yet.

Okay so I missed the first 15 minutes and I'm rewatching that now, and they're linking this to the extinction of the dinosaurs? But it completely dehydrates and calcifies them so there's no bones left just dust? Then explain the fossils
