@riedlr Scotland Yard, I thought
Another #Monsterdon is in the can!
Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!
Tonight's feature, #CatGirl, from 1957, is an unofficial remake of 1942's Cat People, which had its own official remake done in 1982. While we weren't "putting out fires with gasoline", like the 1982 remake, we did get:
A little table with ALL the glasses!Love triangle! Well, more like a love rhombus, I suppose. Big cat curse!Camera jitterbug!Worst psychiatrist ever!A quick canary snack!Anachronistic theme music:

so... the cops think this guy semi-accidentally ran over a wild leopard AND a slightly crazed young woman, and their reaction is to... clean up after the crime and return the murder weapon to the murderer. checks out. #ACAB #monsterdon
#Monsterdon *creeeeeeeeepy* well that was fun :D
Brian?
#monsterdon
Scotland patrol car?!?! Heyy... I thought they were in LONDON! #monsterdon
The cops are going to CLEAN HIS CAR FOR HIM!?!?
HOLY *FUCK* these pigs #Monsterdon
Pussy cat said the thing!

#Monsterdon this guy is playing pokemon go and just heard a shiny was spotted

If this actor emoted any less, he'd be made of cardboard. #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
oh no!! #monsterdon
If you die in a curse you die in real life
@mmezabet starts singing very loidly "I can't feel my face when I'm with you!πΆ :ablobcathungry3: " #Monsterdon
I'm a few minutes behind y'all. #Monsterdon
Yikes, this stalking scene is legitimately scary!
That's one powerful psychic connection.
BOOO.
nooo the leopard π’
Sorry Cat Girl, Dorothy is reality #monsterdon
#Monsterdon woooooow 'until death parts you' that some cold ass shit
Stiff upper lip what what
Oh no he ran over the kitty you bastard! #Monsterdon
oh. the leopard was struck by a vehicle. damn. #monsterdon
Poor kitty!
#Monsterdon π π§ π π§ π π§ π±
So wrong to focus on eating Dorothy when you could have eaten Brian!
Whoa-oh, here she comes.
Watch out, Brian, she'll chew you up. #Monsterdon
love how theyβre setting up the βis she crazy or is she cursedβ situation.
"Doctor, can you come here a moment?"
One sec, disembodied voice! #Monsterdon
DOUBLE road kill! #monsterdon
"Faster, pussycat, kill, kill!" #monsterdon
Aw man. Poor kitty. #Monsterdon #CatGirl
And THAT is why you keep your cats indoors. :/ #Monsterdon
that poor leopard plushie, it did nothing wrong! #monsterdon
So many movies we watch could use a bigger body count. Occasionally we get a feel like there were more kills than we actually got, like the Critters flicks. But most of the time we get two, maybe three kills but the movie acts like that is a killing spree.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
Try loving Brian when your face has been eaten, Dottie!!!
"why did you marry him?"
"I was lonely and frightened." That's probably a red flag. But what do I know? #Monsterdon #catgirl1957
K I L L
#monsterdon
Is the police British? #monsterdon #thecatgirl
@bstacey@icosahedron.website Don't worry, your aim will improve!
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
"Is that you Leonora!?"
Well, that's an interesting question actually. #Monsterdon
Oh oh oh, I know this one. The camera will stay on the running feet, the shoes will be kicked off, the coat will drop to the ground, and then the next scene will show a running cat! Or, they'll do .... this.
Wait...she's turned Vulcan!
Suddenly it becomes a women's track event #monsterdon
doc got a spot for his car right on the front of the restaurant? In London?
Ok, that's where this movie REALLY slipped.
#monsterdon
chase scenes SUCK when you can't take a full stride. #monsterdon
@Taweret god right to the turned up coat collar
UNTIL DEATH SHALL PART YOU
@bstacey I don't, but I do miss is wrenches
@trixter It's a #Monsterdon staple
Man, she's got all the directional sense of the cast of C.H.U.D. >_> #Monsterdon
Dorothy was the one person (aside from maybe Allen) that I didn't want to wind up dead. Oh, well. It looks like I might not get my wish.
They send out a squad of constables, each holding a feathery toy dangling from a stick #monsterdon
#Monsterdon yeah, and the cops have simulated pricks they carry around. Cops and rifles. Elegant, make them run. Looks hilarious. Possibly self inflected gunshot wounds too. Merow.
Dottie's gonna break a heel and then Leonora's gonna pounce!
Excellent Foley-work when she's dashing about.
If she doesn't get another shot of heroin soon, she might display an emotion.
@arrjay It's more likely than you think. #Monsterdon
You don't have a gun, sir! Like all of us in the city of London, England, are known to constantly carry. #monsterdon
@Lazarou Dangit, I always miss the good ones #Monsterdon
Make yourself look big! #Monsterdon #CatGirl
get her ass! she is just a normal girl, you are a cat girl! #monsterdon
@jammerb And the way the leopard has been killing people, there should be enough parts to satisfy anyone
@diazona I am often saying this during movies.
#Monsterdon how come nobody wears rubber dresses any more???
"Why do you hate me so much?" Cause you're an asshole. #monsterdon
These leopard rumours travel fast. Almost as fast as a leopard can run down Denmark Street. #Monsterdon
I missed most of today's #MonsterDon due to dinner, I see a woman running.
Not the POLIS with their blunderbusses!! Watch out, kitty!
based on the fact that there are about 5 minutes left in this film, i think this is supposed to be the "thrilling conclusion" part??? #monsterdon
Brianβs dinner plans will undoubtedly go very well.
#monsterdon
Clearly these cops have seen some things to react so calmly to the all cars call. #Monsterdon #catgirl1957
Leonora has finally started owning it. Too bad her next target is another woman
#Monsterdon π π§ π π§ π π§ π±
Loose leopard alert! Loose leopard alert!
"Till death parts you" - woooo
Take her back to the mansion so she can be cat girl too.
How does this cat just keep appearing places?
#Monsterdon
@arrjay The leopard probably stole the cars spot. ... changed spots?!... get it?... --dad #Monsterdon
"He loves me, you know that, don't you?"
"Yes. Until death parts you."
NOT EVEN VEILED, that threat!
Shut up Helena Eagan.
"Yes, until I eat your face."
"Leonora, what happend to your eyebrowns?"
#monsterdon
That's not ominous at all.
Here kitty, kitty!
"Richard? Why did she marry you? She doesn't love you."
"One of my ancesters was hung after The Gunpowder Plot. I'm afraid that I'm well hung too."
Do cats smoke?
