Friend, Bob is teensy, I'm afraid

John Agar was Shirley Temple's first husband. #monsterdon

@crowbriarhexe @Bluedepth
Hey, hey! Manquins have hard butts too, so that argument makes no sense!

#Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

@amyfou It's unclear whether any men better than this existed in the 50s

#monsterdon

I wonder if the writers just had a barely-disguised micro/macro fetish or something

#Monsterdon

I know I'm supposed to be making fun of Attack of the Puppet People, but…

I don't think the Amazing Collosal Man knows how clowns work.

#Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

Meet me in St. Louis… totally different film 😂
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

I am confused about the size of clowns now.

Schlock movie in a schlock movie!!! #monsterdon

Did Sally go out with Bob? Really? He’s a jackass.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Just think where I stick my hand! The felt is moist. It's delightful!

After dinner we'll go back to my shop.

Oh, oh...

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon HE was the best? THAT was the best?

Heh - we're at a drive-in showing the Amazing Colossal Man

#Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

Yeah. We’re going to find the estranged wife on that shelf. #Monsterdon

Well I may be wrong, but I can think of a few things wrong with you Mr. Content
#Monsterdon

@blogdiva This is one of those "A man will invent a ray to shrink people into dolls rather than go to therapy" moments isn't it? #Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

"I'm going to the one place where the law can never find me... space!"

#monsterdon

How DARE you be content and happy! That's wrong and sinful!

#Monsterdon

"You know what's wrong with you my friend?"

Capitalism? #monsterdon

This Puppet Master prequel is kinda dull. Just like a Full Moon production.
#Monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958

lol, puppets are inherently funny and creepy at the same time, they are like clowns, but with the humour!

#Monsterdon

Who’d a thunk it, a slightly crazed marionette owner, AKA Franz.

#PuppetPeople1958

Ah so they WILL respect the doll/puppet divide apparently!

From Each According To Their Strings, To Each According To Their Plastics

#monsterdon

please decide if you're doing an accent or not

#PuppetPeople1958

that man just picked up that doll and looked up her skirt

Ah yes, his old friend Lenin

#monsterdon

I suspect that Dollar Store Vladimir Lenin is going to end up shrunkinated

#Monsterdon

Meanwhile at the Yul Brynner doll factory. #Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

@nazokiyoubinbou #monsterdon

bc pervy dollmaker said he'd give it to the lady when she dropped by in a couple days.

She put that together very quickly.

#Monsterdon

that's a great sinister mailbag

#MonsterDon

And this is why you invest in a cross-cut shredder

#Monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958

Columbo is gonna talk to the mailman and this shrink-wrapping kidnapper of a doll maker is over...

'Goodbye, cya later.... Oh, just one more question'

#Monsterdon

OH NO!!!

It's a letter!!!

...

Why is this scary?

#Monsterdon

whelp I guess we know what she's gonna be wearing

#monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958

Lingerie for the dolls?

What kind of dolls are these?

#Monsterdon

@klu9 lol, "our glorious Future" #Monsterdon

I don't know here new address, I haven't built that playset yet...
#Monsterdon

@jonny Doll guy secretly has mafia ties. They think he's mild-mannered, but actually he's running a protection racket out of the back.

#Monsterdon

Mail sack or MALE sack?! #monsterdon

@bunnyhero Oh gosh you have missed the terror then of taking elevators!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon "No, I'm not afraid of him..."

Seriously, not afraid of this guy? They didn't make red flag detectors in the '50's did they?

@Lazarou

Can't wait until AI saves us the trouble of pressing the buttons!

#Monsterdon

This guy walks too close

#Monsterdon

Third floor! Shoes, naked feet, general fetishes!

Fourth floor! Weird shit involving appliances and gourds!

Fifth floor! Electricity!

Sixth floor!

#monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958

okay, the elevator scene can stay though, that was good filmmaking, especially for like 1912.

#monsterdon

i don't think i've ever been in an elevator that had an operator

#monsterdon

How big is that elevator? They are exceeding capacity.
#Monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958

#monsterdon

I love a good elevator scene..

I hope bob gets shrunk, and then gets used by a cat as a sexual aid

#Monsterdon

You can always introduce yourself as the best salesman in St. Louis #LifeProtips #Monsterdon

I'm having fun imagining the costume designer who had to make tiny versions of the adult costumes and how delightful and maddening this probably was

#Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

People who say "let's start over" are telling you all you need to know #monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

@allanb

Involving a 7-inch tube?

#Monsterdon

She went from "I have no idea what I'm doing" to "I need the cash ledger right now."

#monsterdon

"So what happened to the last girl who worked here?"

"Uh... *hides realistic doll that looks just like the last girl who worked there."

#Monsterdon #AttackofthePuppetPeople

@Lazarou 😱#Monsterdon

This movie was remade years later as #SmallSoldiers.

(☝️ Pretty sure that's not true)

#Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

fuck off bob westly

#Monsterdon

Skills: can type at 60 WPM with few errors

#Monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958

Seriously Glasser, stop hitting me. I'm getting a stick. #Monsterdon

I am an important person - look at the four tie tacks in my tie.

#Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople

That has to be the creepiest set of job interview questions possible.

(well I can think of others, but you know, as creepy but not quite "things that would be asked that weren't overt sexual harassment short of asking your blood type")

#Monsterdon

She really ought to listen to those alarm bells -- creepy guy who loves dolls and begs you to work for him and all that -- but this is the story of the one who didn't listen.

#Monsterdon

I guess we missed the tour of the factory floor

#monsterdon
#AttackOfThePuppetPeople

Just answer the phones while I'm getting this roomy labcoat refitted

#Monsterdon

"My dolls showcase all different types of women. A bride, a housewife, and a nurse. See, all three types of woman!"

#Monsterdon #Oh50sYou

He's offering a "competitive salary", so another red flag.

#Monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958

I'll take it in the back room. Ignore any noises you here through the door. #monsterdon

Insist on stock options #monsterdon

General Office Girl Wanted. Easy work, good pay. Dolls Inc.

This doesn't sound as innocent in 2025 as it apparently did in 1956.

#monsterdon

The lady's instincts were right, she should run

#Monsterdon

You're on your own? You're perfect for disappearing.
