@Taweret the curse of carrying a candelabra too close to one's relatives and endangering their hair, which is oddly perfect considering she was asleep... the curse of a perfect do
C'mon Leonora, every family has a weird aunt or uncle
#monsterdon
@gnomon She is consigned to a fate worse than death... maintaining the internet backbone.
"You've been reading too many of these books. I mean, *one* isekai, sure, but..."
#Monsterdon ok so this is how the golden compass got started
@SRLevine She has to choose which model she's going to be.
βIt is the symbol of my affliction. For I amβ¦ a cat boyβ #monsterdon
#monsterdon movies with stuffed animals in them are just better, scientifically speaking
Cat uncle to cat lady, through the ages...
Leonora: "You've been reading too many books. This is what happens when you read. That is why I never read."
#Monsterdon Dusty old books and a leopard? This guy's study is the best.
I want to live in this house.
The Catification legacy must continue
Her husband's already got the craving for raw warm flesh, uncle #Monsterdon
So do they like have their family members stuffed when they die or what's going on here
Barbara Shelley's BARE BACK *GASP*
"Pardon me. Do you mind if we dance wit yo dates...?"
"Look. Look at my stuffed animal collection."
#Monsterdon
Is this where catification ritual happens???? #monsterdon
#monsterdon so it's a family curse that has to be handed down manually?
So to end the curse, maybe just, you know, don't?
oooh, _these_ are the founding members of the leopards eating their faces party, okay. Not those still living people.
Hey go easy on Leonora. Poor gal. YOU pull YOURSELF together!
@Louisa@mastodon.xyz Reminds me of Nanny Ogg from Discworld. "She checked if there was a strange man under your bed. Well, you never knew your luck."
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
LOOK!!! :blobcatblep: lol
#monsterdon #CatGirl
"I wasn't allowed in that room when I was a child."
"You'll learn the secret of that room now."
Creeeeeepy.
#monsterdon We gave Critters2 such a hard time last week for having boobs right out there in the open but consider our poor Boomer (grand?)parents who had to put up with stuff like this in the theatre:
You must learn the secret... right... meow! #Monsterdon
Welcome to my CHATeau... #monsterdon
Ugh, the worst part of these gothic castle movies is always the taxidermy :/ #Monsterdon
I'm not mad I'm just a taxidermist. #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
"You must pull yourself together, Nora." She needs a drink. #Monsterdon #catgirl1957
Uncle: "Look, Leonora! Look at my taxidermy collection!"
How was taxidermy not on the bingo card? LOL
Look! Bad taxidermy!
honestly, if everyone was constantly telling me to keep myself together, i'd be a little uneasy too. #monsterdon
Okay. We're 20 minutes in. Now would be a good time for something to happen. Like, anything. #Monsterdon #CatGirl
Heh. He said 'come' #monsterdon
#Monsterdon π π§ π π§ π π§ π±
OK I think weβre in about the right place thereβs an old dude reading a tome and a german lady carrying a candle is being dismissed?
That housekeeper is ogling the niece. Is she part of the poly group?
#Monsterdon
I have to think this wasn't exactly the height of movie tech in the mid-50s, it feels more like something from the 1930s.
Get in the catification chamber, lady!
It's never good when an old white man wants to share a secret with you.
"This room is where I keep the Amontillado."
#Monsterdon Time for you and me to part. Now we shall open this high window. Do you know about the Russian Goodbye? You will!
When the mood strikes me, I can be most... generous...
Maybe this movie should have been called the Shadow of the Tit.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
Is he going to read it all aloud before they get there? #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon Oh kitty kitty got him! ( I love how they threw a toy cat at him! )
what a lovely entourage Leonora has
#monsterdon
Why not sleep naked when you're in a weird scary house and your partner and friends have been shuttled off to a different wing
1950s SLEEPWARE! GO! #monsterdon
@mmezabet Maybe everyone in this creepy place sleeps in the buff #monsterdon
I'm still catching up on #Monsterdon
I hope this isn't another one of those British movies that takes place entirely in a pub.
"Put on your THINGS!" in a way that sounds like her things are not actually clothing.
THE CURSE OF THE CATGIRL
TL;DR
#Monsterdon just double-checking the curse manual
Clearly this old lady is up to no good. It's the 50s and she's German, and every one else is British.
Okay movie. You get one point for that well done shadow shot. #Monsterdon #CatGirl
I always try to squeeze in some nude napping when staying at a creepy uncle's #monsterdon
Naked shadows, while the housekeeper watches Leonora change, saying, "You have grown into a beautiful woman."
Is she coming onto her?
So the horny teen victim theme is not just 70βs trope #Monsterdon
put on your [waves hands at assorted cloths] things, whatever they are
@catzilla "now you have grown into a very beautiful woman" as she's dressing yikes
@amyfou Correction. The old guy is her uncle.
#Monsterdon
STUPID SEXY BACK #monsterdon
#Monsterdon ooh she sleeps nekkid
Whoa! Partial nudity! π«£ #Monsterdon #catgirl1957
Shadowy side-boob!
Imma need more catnip.
@ramsey So he could cheat easier. #monsterdon
I am scandalized by all this exposed shoulder skin #monsterdon #thecatgirl
Wow. Full backal nudity. How daring. #Monsterdon
@dendari We wouldn't have #Monsterdon if people had that kind of sense though
She brought her own echo. I need to learn that trick. #Monsterdon
SMDH, they put the rooms in the West Wing but we don't even get a walk-and-talk scene going there. #monsterdon
I should have got a drink before this. You are correct Wooster. Now keep tickling those ivories.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
I want the maid to yell "He Vas My BOYFRIEND!" #Monsterdon #CatGirl
For all this thunder, and there's a LOT of thunder, it's dry outside. No rain at all. #monsterdon
SUCH NUDERY
#monsterdon #thecatgirl
Leonora's husband and friend are both shitty. Hope they get their faces eaten soon.
Wait, she can't even sleep in the same room as her husband? That is wild, even for the 50s!
@paco Clearly, you have never been the target of razor sharp british wit.
<deranged whinnying>
This creepy old lady is creepy #monsterdon
Who are you and what are you doing her?
the correct answer is Nobody and I was just leaving
#Monsterdon
my favorite (human) character so far is Anna
Itβs like falconing, but with leopards.
"Everyone else must share the assistant principal rooms."
So he was just sitting there with a statue in front of the book, like one does #monsterdon #thecatgirl
drinkin', drivin', leopardin' #monsterdon
Donβt sit in that chair! Youβll get covered in cat hair!
#monsterdon #catgirl1957
"You were instructed to come alone!"
"Well I didn't!"
"I need a drink."
#Monsterdon #catgirl1957
New #monsterdon mini-game: Every time they say they need a drink, take a drink
The uncle is giving me Dr Praetorius vibes.
"These people turned up too, but in my heart I *am* alone" #monsterdon
Uncle Creepy McCreepfuck. #Monsterdon
