Fun fact: George Kennedy wrote a novel centered on a fictional version of himself. #Svengoolie www.goodreads.com/book/show/60...

Not sure how you walk into doing this one-on-one scene with Joan Crawford and don't absolutely doo-doo your pants. Cheers to this guy holding it together and being professional. #Svengoolie

Not the most understanding group of people. #Svengoolie

"I'd prefer not seeing where my breakfast eggs come from. What a weird thing to say. What the hell is wrong with you?" #Svengoolie

Shudder watching that last promo: #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam

This perfectly Drive-In movie paired with @therealjoebob123.bsky.social busting out Drive-In Knowledge, while watching everyone engage online is absolutely amazing. It's like being nostalgic for a moment while I'm in that moment. #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam

I'm really glad spiders don't actually semi throat-scream like that. I've got enough problems. #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam

I'm almost 50, and that dude looked old to me. #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam

It's a wonderous occasion when the #Svengoolie world intersects with #TheLastDriveIn. And #EarthvsTheSpider embodies that crossover. #MutantFam

Well, he was the one married to her. #Svengoolie

Now she knows he's a "murr-drah." #Svengoolie

Looks like someone slipped him one of those Atomic Sour Warheads candies. #Svengoolie

I picture him holding the knife in a threatening manner with the one hand he has and telling his victim to "hold still." Sets the knife down. Strangles the victim after they've waited for his approaching grasp. #Svengoolie

Imagine your best weapon against an on-coming supernatural monster is a long-ass shotgun. That thing is meant for small, unsuspecting birds, my dude! #Svengoolie

She's important to the plot because she looks like someone who is more important to the plot. #Svengoolie

ANOTHER flashback. 🙄 #Svengoolie

"Aaand we're baaaack!" #Svengoolie

Because of #Svengoolie, I sometimes wonder what it would be like to be a man, standing in a room with 20 ft. ceilings, having a conversation.

"Hey buddy. You're covered in mud and every moment of existence is probably filled with immeasurable pain. But I've got this scroll, so I need you to do me a favor." #Svengoolie

Must be pretty cool to find a pre-lit chamber like that. #Svengoolie

#Hammer had a way about their title cards/fonts that I really appreciate. #Svengoolie

Okay. I officially made it to the bit I was waiting for. #Svengoolie #HouseofSvengoolie #TheBlairWitchProject

Getting lost in the woods is incredibly unsettling. Try it sometime. You will quickly lose your $**t. #Svengoolie #TheBlairWitchProject #HouseofSvengoolie

The first time I saw #TheBlairWitch I was basically waiting for...the thing (whatever that meant at the time). But seeing it now, I really appreciate how the build-up, interactions between these humans. #Svengoolie #HouseofSvengoolie

Fun fact: the friends I saw this with on opening weekend didn't know it was fake. I'd seen the cast on Leno the night before. I didn't let on. After the movie, I 💔 with the reveal, but I like to think they enjoyed the experience that much more because I kept my mouth shut. #Svengoolie

I saw #TheBlairWitch in the theater and explored the original website back in my AOL days. 🥇 #Svengoolie #HouseofSvengoolie

Igor's commitment to that horn hanging over his shoulder is an often overlooked aspect of the movie. #Svengoolie

"Silence!" #Svengoolie

"Igor's Horn, guest starring Frankenstein's Monster" coming to NBC this fall!! #Svengoolie

I bet all that sulfur smells amazing. #Svengoolie #GhostofFrankenstein

Now THAT'S how you start a Frankenstein movie! With...erm...political pressure? #Svengoolie

Someone should've told the writers that feeling fear on behalf of the main characters requires the audience to care about them. #Svengoolie

"Legally, we can't blame the water tower incident on the people involved nor the spider-incident. So we're denying your 'Wrongful Death' claim." - the insurance company. #Svengoolie

I dunno. Pretty sure I could hop, skip, and run past all those spiders. #Svengoolie

#KingdomofTheSpiders, and movies like it, have a child-like logic and understanding of the natural world that I kind of miss. Glad I first saw this one when I was younger and less cynical. I can still appreciate it, just not in that same way. #Svengoolie

I'm pretty convinced our two leads actually hate each other. Does anyone have a behind the scenes story to support my theory? #Svengoolie #KingdomofTheSpiders

Someone should have asked if anyone had actual experience with "burning a mound of spiders" during the interview process. Some skills need to be vetted. #Svengoolie

This movie is doing a terrible job of convincing us they have chemistry. #Svengoolie

Just like a herd of goats, a murder of crows, or flock of geese, apparently there's a "mound of spiders." #Svengoolie

"Think of the County Fair, man. Just think of it!" #Svengoolie #KingdomoftheSpiders

Who's your pick for the worst #MeTvBatman villain? "Shame" is definitely one of the bottom three in my mind. #Svengoolie

The wildest aspect of #MysteriousIsland is how the entire cast of characters lacks intellectual curiosity about their circumstances. Hot air balloon, giant chicken, convenient trunk floating to shore, and not a one stops to say, "This whole thing is weird." #Svengoolie
