"Come on, Sally, we'll call the police!"
"Don't leave me... please don't leave me... I'll be alone!"
That's the end?! Two escapees, but the rest of the puppet crew is just left offsccreen? Presumably the mad scientist offs himself per his plan as soon as he's left alone?? And nobody but nobody fucks off into the sea!
AND THAT'S A WRECK
Man, that was a weird one.
EXCELSIOR!!
Well this was fun!
I'd like thank all the little people
And everyone else, and also @Taweret for hosting!
Night all! :D
Someday this will be returned to a full-size movie with a full-size ending
are we supposed to feel bad for the creepy man
I would like a giant cup of coffee.
@trixter What is the ratio of monsterdon to coffee? Over 50%?
#Monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958
hell yes, tiny-large paper airplane
even though paper gives the scale game away, I respect the prop chutzpah
...I don't think I actually *need* to post the meme at this stage, right? #Monsterdon
That Dolls Incorporated place sure does seem to go through secretaries, huh?
Ermagerd just get a room you two
See, this is why we need to bring lassoing back to schools
Wow yes, definitely a fetish
Attack! doll people, Attack!
So. Taking all bets, how much y'wanna bet he's got his wife in a tube somewhere? #Monsterdon
Like is no one going to ask why he has slides of babes for his visual aids
it must have been very fun to do the effect where someone threw really tiny objects at him
Think of what they'll save on rent and car insurance
Shoutout to the stagehand throwing doll furniture at Hoyt. #Monsterdon
Beyond The Cabinet Of The Dolls
Yeah, that paper cutout is super accurate. #Monsterdon
Emma? Emma? Oh right, under the floorboards. #Monsterdon
I LOVE the smell of burning plastic in the morning!
The men in this movie are awful, I hope she stabs them all and runs
I guess they are not only shrankened but also put in some kind of stasis 🤔
lol, this guy is not helping the 'creepy dollmaker' reputation

@Taweret This whole movie is an extended Twilight Zone
Sorry, kid, those are the ADULT collectibles.
GOGOGOGOGOGOGO #Monsterdon
@ohiofi #monsterdon #WrongPuppets
I'm digging the harpsichord tho...
Attack of the Puppet People was good in concept, but terrible in delivering on that concept, making it good #Monsterdon fodder. It could have done better with some writers/directors from the Twilight Zone.
As always, thanks to @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla for #MonsterdonBingo, @JoeWynne for #MonsterdonDrink, and @ryan for #MonsterdonStream!
Until next time, keep donning your monster!
@allanb @nazokiyoubinbou @Taweret the stuff that terrified me as a child is laughable now, but back then it was the end of the universe!
Marlene Willis, who sang “You’re My Living Doll” in the movie, later recorded a song called “Sticking Pins in a Dolly.”
@CactuarJoe Yes. The woooooorst.
Not objectionable or utterly horrible. But it is the worst thing we have seen in a while. Slow, dull, bad, no damn ending, not punishment, no clue what happened to half the characters.
Puppet people are the worst.
#Monsterdon #PuppetPeople1958
This movie featured far too little comeuppance
oh okay
wow, that movie sure did end.
Why does a little girl show up at Dr. Franz’s doll shop at 6am?
this girl is giving real Kid From Finding Nemo energy rn.
Child snitch
Congratulations you've escaped into prison
"Oh I've heard bettern' that."
Yeah, me too. #Monsterdon
"Doll Suicide Cult" - excellent band name
Oh, he's gonna commit suicide rather than run or give up his toys? Yeah, there's a slave owner for you. #Monsterdon
Kind of running out of time to make more people into dolls
#monsterdon fucking greedy kid. a little gringa in the making. teach your kids right, so they don't grow up to be entitled karens.
Living dolls but puppets 🤨
i can feel the burns on my hands after he slipped down the rope
I certainly had enough of that music!
This feels less like "Attack of the Puppet People" and more like "Desperate Attempt to Survive Horrifying Circumstances of the Puppet People"
They had to know the number for the police department. Fun Fact: The standardization of "911" in the united states did not reach 50% until 1987. #monsterdon
@hollie Lassoing and civics. Agreed.
I will say this is by far the wackiest Bert I. Gordon film I've seen by far. #Monsterdon
Her voice is way too low. Shouldn't they all be squeaking like cartoon chipmunks.
I don't have secret living dolls but if anyone barged into my place because they saw a light on and started telling me about a puppet show I might become some kind of villain
Anybody who was only watching this to see the adorable shrinking kitty cat may now go to bed.
"I'll have to shrink a priest!"
These dolls are acting like swingers
science is when ~wwweeeewww wewwwww~
...So it's the same principle as Wonkavision.
But Bert expects us to take it seriously >_> #Monsterdon
Wow, a whole half an hour Time To Tiny. That's extensive for a Bert I. Gordon film. #Monsterdon
RIP Bob
those heels should be registered weapons
lol at "Tube Bob"
Fun Fact: The Amazing Colossal Man was another Burt I. Gordon film which came out the year before this one. #monsterdon
how much you wanns bet he was a Real Dolls angel investor
"Did you pick this show for any particular reason?"
It's royalty free, see. #Monsterdon
Look! A better movie!
#monsterdon An acrobat, because his buns were so tight you could bounce a quarter off them and the quarter would shatter brick walls! We're talking TIGHT. Like amazing, the screaming, the dolls just couldn’t take all that hot passion.
Heeeey, The Amazing Rando! Come by with your Amazing Corpse Party? #Monsterdon
I'm admittedly thrown by the villain dressing like Fred Rogers
Ma'am, just hit him with a brick and save us all the trouble. #Monsterdon
OMFG HE TURNED JANET INTO A DOLL!
I'm not on team any of the men in the movie
is that a Royal typewriter in the background? if anybody wants to get rid of their old typewriters, send them my way!
Hoyt! John Hoyt, he was a B-actor's B-actor. #Monsterdon
OH FUCK IT'S THAT GUY #Monsterdon
Representing Lemmy, Mastodon's fediverse sibling! #monsterdon
"Have you seen my collection of White People?"
Physically when I die, my obsession to follow Insane Clown Posse will live on.
'You checked the Certificates of the Dead. But did you also check the Certificates of the UNDead?!?!"
Is she like one of those Chinese ghosts that will sex you to death? Cuz that would enliven things.
@paco @Mallow @_L1vY_ "Pictured: Victim of Monsterdon Ending Whiplash cir 1958"
#Monsterdon
@kcarr2015 there was some good set design, I'm give them that #Monsterdon
@nazokiyoubinbou @Taweret Yeah, but the drama of the show was the edge he played on and the risk it posed to the family
@strangefour Seriously, could we at least FINISH the dang plot, Bert? :/ #Monsterdon
It's a low bar, but I think this is probably the best Burt I Gordon we've seen. #Monsterdon #AttackOfThePuppetPeople
#Monsterdon ppl might want to know that there is now a Devil Girl bot and you can @ mention to get a meme @devilgirlbot
Thanks @Taweret for hosting and to all the tiny tooting monsterdonians
Y'know I'm used to #Monsterdon films ending without a denouement but most of them at least have the kindness to have a RESOLUTION >:\ #Monsterdon
