Another #Monsterdon is in the can!
Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!
Tonight's feature, #DraculaPrisonerOfFrankenstein, from 1972, contained more sound effects than lines. We also had:
- A bat that swallowed a whistle!
- Tiny vampire hammer!
- Monstergram!
- A sound effects department (aka Pierre) that could only afford the childhood toy that spun an arrow around and then made the noise of the animal it was pointed at.
- Lots of eyeball closeups!
- Wolfman fighting Frankenstein monster!
- Bat zapper!
- Monster zapper!
- Still no idea what the plot was!

- A Flying Oliver typewriter!
- Anti Gravity Goop! Not Flubber, but close!
- Bouncy ball space ship! With chickens!
- Turns out the inside of the moon has breathable air!
- Moon bugs!
