"Call it to the window, Leonora"
"Okay - kill, kill kill!"

"Whoa, how did you get from 'window' to 'kill'?"

#monsterdon

yes

YES

the lesbian is out!

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

Leisure Suit Psychiatrist assigns his wife to scope out Lenora and observe her reactions, so they go to a tea cafe, where the wife makes very normal conversation by saying things like "I love velvet!" and "When I die I want to be buried in velvet!", which is a thing that normal people do.

#monsterdon

The musical cues made it seem like her preparing to stay at the hotel was the end of the movie and for a hot second there, I almost believed it.

#Monsterdon

"When I die I want to be wrapped in velvet"

So goth

#Monsterdon

Okay, so Leisure Suit Psychiatrist guess we're trying to gaslight and/or un-gaslight Lenora by proving that she's not a lycanthrope and asking her to call her cat friend (which is currently being distracted by a flash light, which diminishes its hunter powers I guess).

He then jostles her around uncomfortably and screams "look at your hands!" to prove she doesn't have leopard hands or something.

#monsterdon

Roll credits! A successful psychiatric treatment!

#Monsterdon

I had this one girlfriend who would say "You're trying to make me think I'm crazy". I'd say "You've been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. I'm trying to get you to take your meds."

#monsterdon

Why was the movie playing happy ending music when there's 15 minutes left?

#monsterdon #catgirl1957

Do you treat body dysmorphia by shaking the patient and shouting about their 'sick mind', I don't think so...

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon The doctor simply has to be thrown into a wood chipper. Fargo style. I wouldn’t even gag him, I’d record the screams and play them back over and over. Grrrrrind.

here kitty kitty kitty
#monsterdon

"Your sick mind"

Are we seeing Anti-Furry prejudice in this film? All the more reason for the Doctor to be face chewed

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Only made more perfect by having my cat in my lap while I watch. See Bailey? You too could have a curse! :)

Be careful. Cat Girl is now single and ready to mangle...MINGLE. I mean mingle.

#Monsterdon

Brian needs to have a plugged in toaster oven tossed into his bath. #monsterdon

"You must not go to London with him"

Take some Elder Gay advice there lady

#Monsterdon

Okay, I guess we only killed the husband with our cat minion. Lenore tries to confess to having a cat minion kill her husband to the police inspector, but he doesn't realize that this is a monster movie and instead thinks that the cat itself is to blame and she is being silly. hash tag believe women.

She also says that she would've eaten the other woman too, while she was in the room; harsh.

#monsterdon

It’s the power of the night

#monsterdon #catgirl1957

So I'm a little unclear how this Cat Girl curse works because it hasn't really been much of a curse yet. I guess Lenore is now mentally bonded to a great jungle cat but also has intrusive, cat-like thoughts to do violence?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon *Leonora walks out the study door to find Brian and Cathy, leaves it open behind her while the wind sweeps into the study*

OK now Allan has to shut the door behind her and she has to scratch at it and yell until he opens it again, then not go back inside

Gee, maybe her uterus came loose and is now roaming around her innards, agitating her humours

#monsterdon

SEX FOREST!

It's like Finsbury Park!

#Monsterdon

I don't think I've seen that character playing the piano now sober at any point

#Monsterdon

Here, Richard. I brought you a gift.

#Monsterdon The best way to deal with mental illness it to forcibly burn someone's books.

"Now, be a good girl. Take your heroin."

#monsterdon

Sure rip up the ancient tomes like a dirty old phone book
#monsterdon

I might be confusing which characters are having what affair; probably my ancient curse is that most characters in 1950s movies look the same to me.

#monsterdon

The next morning, a police inspector shows up to investigate the death of Uncle Vampire. While the spooky gothic castle should possibly have tipped him off to the presence of an ancient curse, he seems to think this is an open and shut case where the cats ate the uncle.

Maybe they should've sent the scooby-doo van instead of the police.

#monsterdon

Whomst amongst us...

#monsterdon

Nice. Cat's eye sunglasses. Subtle.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon The light hurts my eyes. After eating so many republicans, I’ve picked up a prion disease. Now every time I draw near a lobbyist my nipples get all hard! It’s a challenge!

I thought she would have cat eyes TBH

#monsterdon

Ten points for the stagehand who threw the stuffed leopard at him. #Monsterdon

He explains the family curse... I guess they turn into cats or I guess command cats and hunger for darkness and raw flesh (I think by that he means meat and not... meat). This curse must be transferred to Lenora, which is done so by her head-patting a cat.

After almost taking the blue pill, Lenora decides the cat deserves head pats and pats a leopard on the head, awakening her secret cat powers or something.

#monsterdon

Giving chin scritches to a leopard would be awesome. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Touch it! Its purr is addictive no? You crave to feel the deep rattle, like sitting on a washing machine for the thrill, yes?

how is being a were-leopard a curse? that sounds epic

#monsterdon

The curse of bad taxidermy

#monsterdon

welcome to my taxidermy room?

#monsterdon

The old couple are like Miracle Max and Valerie, but without the charisma.

#monsterdon

“I happen to be Leonora’s husband.”

“Indeed.”
I don’t think I’m supposed to like the uncle, but I do. He and the leopard are the best part.
#monsterdon

"SHADOW BOOB!"

creeeeppy old lady!

#Monsterdon

Easy tiger, this is pg 13
#Monsterdon

So, the old creep trained a cat to drop wet food and walk away? And we're supposed to believe that?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon "Well, well, well."

"So you're back!"

...FROM OUTER SPACE

I bet this whole place smells like cat pee

#monsterdon #catgirl1957

@paco it's like the cameraman is high and getting caught out as the scene changes, I like it #Monsterdon

"I happen to be Leonora's Husband"
"Indeed"

That was a very dry sarcastic "Indeed"

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon this family has a loyalty that ends in extra large litter boxes.

NO SNACKING!

#monsterdon

Maybe it's the exposure, but that woman is VERY white like a picket fence

#monsterdon

Her uncle chose taking a walk in a thunderstorm over greeting her as she arrived. #monsterdon

ok so this so far is basically the setup to half of the scooby doo episodes i watched as a child

#Monsterdon

After the white people in the pub explain their subtle character backstories, we switch the scene to a new location, the Gothic Castle, where a vampire looking guy slides about ominously and then releases his menageries of exotic jungle cats.

We then discover that the two plots are intersecting, and the pub goers decided to go on a road trip to this spooky Gothic Castle! How wonderful! The servant lady lets her in through the extremely arched door and they cautiously wander in.

#monsterdon

"Training School for Ghouls" is the project Rob Zombie creates when he sells out to Disney #monsterdon

That husband is SUCH a dick though....

#Monsterdon

This set could be 11th - 20th century.

#monsterdon

@diazona right?? This is #monsterdon, chances are they'll just cut to black at the point when the production ran out of money. Possibly in mid dialogue delivery.

Let me talk-smoke at you in your face
#monsterdon

Dear fuck everyone smokes so much, I feel ill watching them all...

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon And my most recent slap and tickle. This bar has so many good memories for me

American International, you know it is going to be a film with pictures and sound (I can't promise much more)
#monsterdon

#monsterdon

@SordidAmok She's stupidly loyal to her terrible psychiatrist husband, but she doesn't deserve to die for that. #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

Look, we just need to be thankful that in 1957 a woman was allowed to inherit anything, period, cursed or not!

#Monsterdon

Oh yeah, and what about their friend who was a piano playing drunk?

He took the cat girl's car half way through the movie and never came back, right?

He should have been eaten by a cat. Movies like this shouldn't have survivors.

#monsterdon

anyway good job team and thanks to @Taweret for organising as always

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

@bunnyhero @moira #Monsterdon #CatGirl

I'm not letting go of the pistol in the pants thing. I'll be repeating that gag for every #monsterdon . I am not proud.

@bunnyhero @moira I bet it was supposed to be, but the jaguars are .. and wait for it... always in the shop! --dad #Monsterdon

@moira and it wasn't even a jaguar! #monsterdon

IT'S NOT EVEN AMERICAN THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE THAT EXCUSE

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

i'm still mad that they killed the leopard spirit by hitting it with a FUCKING AUTOMOBILE

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

@SordidAmok A very cat-like thing to do, I imagine

#Monsterdon

you guys I think that the leopard in 'Cat Girl' might have been Chiefy!

IMDB lists 'Frank Ferrar' as the animal trainer, and 'Frank Ferrar' had a famous leopard ...

We need to go back to the movie and match the spots!

With Critters and the amazing Yeti nipple we've been spoiled for really memorable movies lately.
I feel like Cat Girl is going to have slipped out of all of our minds by May.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

@srol that's a very good point. At least in some of the other bad monsterdons the actors seemed to be having a good time of it. #monsterdon

The only likable character was the Elder Gay.

#monsterdon #thecatgirl

@blogdiva I can't tell if Mystical Jungle Pussy is a better band name or new very awkward entry for urban dictionary. #Monsterdon

Alas, once again the wrong monster dies at the end. Goodnight #monsterdon, and thanks to @Taweret for hosting!

Yay it's over!

Well, gotta say, that was droll and misogynistic, and I cared about no one except the big kitty, and then it got hit by a car (unfair!)

Regardless, it was fun to be subjected to it in the company of fellow #monsterdon peeps.

Thank you all, and special thanks to @Taweret for organizing.

@blogdiva But with lots of pubs!

#monsterdon

At least there was a leopard in this movie, plus one obvious puppet draped over a car.

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

the only nice part of this was being 69 minutes

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

My #Monsterdon experience was pretty awful tonight because of severe rate limiting in my instance. I kept being put in timeout. This is new and really fucking annoying.

@jonny probably how it was too... #Monsterdon

Scotland Yard car cleaning service, at your service, mate!

#Monsterdon

@fabio a solid 7/10 for Monsterdon endings #Monsterdon

So if you die in leopard you die in real life??? #monsterdon

When Lenora tells her cat to kill, it listens. When I tell my cat to do things, she looks at me like I'm an idiot and resumes whatever she's doing. That's the most unbelievable part of this whole movie. #Monsterdon #catgirl1957

The Moral of the Story:

Keep Your Cats Indoors!

#monsterdon

well pile another crime onto the stack for England, this movie's over

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

Man, her ancestors have got to be pissed. "We put up with this curse for 700 years and you didn't last three freaking DAYS?"

#Monsterdon

Twas bad traffic safety what killed the beast.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

Cars save the day!
#monsterdon #catgirl1957

well the part where she got hit by the car really didn't make sense

so

ty for joining, everyone!!

#monsterdon

What an anticlimax
