Proud Owlbear
@cocaine_owlbear@retro.pizza
Partner, Veteran, puppy parent. I like lots of nerdy stuff, mostly indie games and Linux. Oh, and science. And ttrpgs. And… look, the Owlbear is a nerd, alright? Also, I'm an Owlbear. My profile picture is a character from a (modded) Starbound game - a pixel art character with goggles on her head. Follow me for game recommendations, weird short fiction, mediocre poetry, and poor proofreading! I swear often.

The Owlbear talks about a weird connection between SeedPeople and Good Boy; mild spoilers
Hover or focus to reveal
Sensitive
So during #Monsterdon this past Sunday, there was a bit of a problem in #SeedPeople in that you couldn't really tell that the eponymous seed people were taken over because although they were supposed to be zombie-like with deadened emotions, there wasn't really a difference because of bad acting.
#GoodBoy2026 has a similar problem, except it's in the writing. The human lead is supposed to be, acting like more of a dick as the supernatural stuff starts affecting him. Except he's been unlikable since his first line of dialogue. He's got some illness and has been all like "gah, leave me alone, you being conceded about me is annoying" to his sister from the get go - to the point that later "escalation" just seems par for the course.
It's not even a question of acting. The guy seems to have been written with the emotional maturity of a 14 year old entitled, spoiled brat.
He does not deserve his dog.

Granted I was kinda expecting from the beginning it would only be the FBI agent that was a Seedpersonage who would get his head bashed in with an axe or something. So full on dark ending even if sloppily executed was fine by me.

This was waaaay better than I expected from my vague memories of it as a kid. Then again mosty of what I recalled was the Seedpeople monster puppets, and in a few weeks that is probably all I will think about once again. But solid 3/5.

You know, I usually find 50s monsterdon selections kinda boring, but this one is much worse than many older movies we've watched #monsterdon #seedpeople

well, Mrs Santiago and the seedmonsters were the only ones I liked so I guess that's a happy ending!
Thanks to @Taweret@timeloop.cafe for hosting, @JoeWynne@mstdn.plus for trivia, and @cherizilla@hypertext.monster for bingo (which I did not win dangit). Next week maybe I'll be luckier!
And most importantly, thanks to all you #Monsterdonians for making it fun!

I vaguely remembered seeing this decades ago on some Saturday Creature Feature, but I thought this was going to be way cheesier and dumber. Not to say that this is good, but it's decently competent for us here on Monsterdon.

So does the ultraviolet light kill the mind control seeds inside them or just make them dormant? How does the light get inside them?
