"British Sex Weekend"

They're drunk, nobody knows them here, let's gooo!

#Monsterdon

My "stabilized" version has a few sea-sickness transitions. It tends to rock the frame left to right in fades. #monsterdon

That white jacket with the big dark collar is more of a 1970s vibe, he's ahead of his time.

#monsterdon #CatGirl

#Monsterdon remember when people smoked in bars? yuck

Oh great. We're stuck in a British pub again. #Monsterdon #CatGirl

This cast is just a *conga line* of drunks. #Monsterdon

Pub time! #monsterdon #catgirl1957

This is how insufferable the British middle class are I'm afraid...

#Monsterdon

Second scene and we're in a pub. That's British as you can get. #catgirl1957 #Monsterdon

It was a dark and stormy night...
A dog was on a roof typing a story...
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

Nice fade to

#monsterdon

kitty! #monsterdon

A PUB!

First five minutes

#Monsterdon

Okay a 1957 flick tonight for #monsterdon. We're jumping in a few minutes late, but will give it a watch.

Apologies for the toots!

I have never actually watched a #monsterdon movie in real-time, but I still love #monsterdon.

Presented in SHAKEY-VISION! #monsterdon #catgirl1957

Hold that camera still #monsterdon

@kcarr2015 @srol #monsterdon

"Brian... what's this Meth I've heard so much about...?"

#MONSTERDON #TheCatGirl

Seriously thought this was going to be a #Monsterdon post.

I almost forgot my bingo card! I did a BINGO!

(I say it passed the bechdel test because Leonora and Dottie did talk about pre-planning their funeral needs.)

#Monsterdon

"Touch it...! Command it!"
"I won't...!"

< Detective Stabler and Detective Benson get a phone call >

#MONSTERDON #TheCatGirl

@paco @amyfou i am very pleased to learn the IRL identity of the big kitty

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

yay! instead of remembering monsterdon hours and hours or days later i now have managed to remember shortly after the film finished. i am getting closer to really watching it! 😅

@yatsu I'm hoping they're really impounding his car for evidence (just *telling* him they'll clean it up) and will charge him in the morning. #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

@LingLass @Cherizilla I totally agree except for the part where very few people died and also the monster died #TeamMonster

#Monsterdon

@Taweret She was joined in some cursed quantum way with the leopard so when the bad psychiatrist hit the leopard with his car, the impact carried through to her and killed her, too, and tore off some of her shiny black raincoat. #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

That was just my cup of tea. A dark and rainy British setting. An uncle with a book-filled study. An unreliable psychiatrist. A full suite of deserving victims. A slippery ending. Great fun. Thanks, @Taweret and @Cherizilla. #Monsterdon

All in all, this certainly was a movie from 1957 that illustrates why I always vote for the 70s-80s ones

#Monsterdon

a more interesting ending that would perhaps allow them to maintain their status quo: psych saves his wife by locking lenora back up, the authorities capture the leopard and release it into the wild far away, all three of them are miserable for the rest of their days but sometimes lenora closes her eyes and lives as her leopard doing leopard things in its home

#monsterdon

I'm gonna need a scholarly analysis of this... film? #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 😱

It turns out that missing the first 16mins isn't such a bad thing, but they should not have murdered the 🐆 !!

Thank you @Taweret @JoeWynne @Cherizilla and @flowerpot for catching me up on the action

most importantly, thanks #Monsterdonians for making it fun!

Thanks again for another great #Monsterdon!

Many thanks to @Taweret for hosting and to @Cherizilla for organizing #MonsteronBingo, and thanks to you all for making it fun!

Ciao!

#monsterdon So, the study in the castle.

Was there something special about that room? Was it linked to the curse? The old man said so, but it didn't seem to be.

He just had a weird statue in there that he smashed.

Did she get a weird statue?

Another delightful evening watching a bad movie with what I assume are great people. #Monsterdon is so much fun and I'm glad I finally joined the party.

@blogdiva No, it's even scarier in the day. At night, you can't see their smiles. 😃 #monsterdon

@ricci @gnomon Narrator: It did not, in fact, have a strong ending.

#Monsterdon

@blogdiva pretty accurate from what I've been told #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

I wonder if the "monster" was stuck onto a psychological thriller script before filming. I get the feeling that Leonora was meant to be a vengeful killer originally.

well, as my partner often says on our film podcast: we never have to see it again!

thanks for being part of the fun, #monsterdon and shoutout to @Taweret

#Monsterdon

I really wanted Dr. Creepy to die.

I just realized I think Robert Ayres (who played Brian) was totally trying to be Humphrey Bogart in this film, but he didn't do a great job of it.

#Monsterdon

@SordidAmok What if we built this wooden badger?! #thwack #Monsterdon

@bunnyhero @sealawyer Yes! Lock him up! #Monsterdon

Screeeech! And that the patent-pending abrupt ending we know and love.

#Monsterdon

American International always manages to live down to expectations. #Monsterdon #CatGirl

@paco she should have given the bird as a gift specifically to the psych guy, who she actually likes

#monsterdon

Oh, that was the ending.
#Monsterdon

@catzilla
Scotland Yard is awfully polite.
#Monsterdon

For a silly premise, that was such an oppressive film. Everyone looked absolutely miserable to be a part of it. #monsterdon

#monsterdon and with that it just sorta… ends.

Well that was… disappointing.

Ah well, that's just how it goes. Sometimes Monsterdon is caressing yeti nipples, sometimes is weird family cat curses that end like a wet fart.

Fun either way.

Goodnight all!

@catzilla fundamental cat duality obviously #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

@jonny My favorite part is that they said they would clean his car for him. And gave him a ride home. #Monsterdon

Clearly Leonora just needed some headpats. #monsterdon

Classic #monsterdon ending. Sudden and anti-climatic #thecatgirl

@s20 Drunks do #Monsterdon

At least this one was mercifully short. #monsterdon

@yatsu
I thought they were going to check it over for evidence before cleaning it but now I'm not sure.... #monsterdon

The moral of the story is that you can become a cat girl even with only one cat in your life and nobody but your weird uncle will warn you about this #monsterdon

Last in the line of legendary were-cats. Killed by a car.

THE END

She deserved a much more glorious exit from this realm. Oh well it was fun while it lasted. I guess it wouldn't really be the same without an abrupt ending would it?

Thanks for another fun #Monsterdon evening @Taweret !

#monsterdon WILSON! I'M SORRY WILSON!

I'm not sure this movie could afford an ending that would have made us happy.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

Well, as we all know that cats have 9 lives, I look forward to watching the remaining eight The Cat Girl movies.

#Monsterdon

I'm just sad for the leopard. And the birb. This, I suppose was their fate. Somewhere, though, the spirit of the leopard still runs free thru the night. I feel it, still. Good night!

#CatGirl1957
#monsterdon

Aren't we going to talk about the fact that the book burner never got his comeuppance? #monsterdon

@sealawyer i was hoping he'd at least get arrested, if he wasn't going to get eaten! #monsterdon

As the movie trails off pointlessly, a psychiatrist explains how hysteria can transmute leopard fur into a raincoat.

Uteruses are clearly the most dangerous thing on the planet.

#monsterdon #thecatgirl

and that's The End of a #monsterdon

in which, we learn, the true killer

WAS THE AUTOMOBILE.

-fin-

So the monster fucked off into the front grill of a car.

#Monsterdon

So, they fucked off into the night.

#Monsterdon

So the most horrible person got to live? Boo. #Monsterdon

I...what?

Thanks friends #monsterdon #thecatgirl

I like how we went instantly from Lenore being alone in an alley to having three cops standing in a circle over her corpse.

The cops decide that Nick is suspicious, because it looks like Lenore was also hit by a car, but they let him ago after he says that he didn't hit her. I guess he was too posh to detain for questioning.

Then we get a voiceover about the curse dying when Lenore's line ends and, credits.

#monsterdon

BRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNN #monsterdon

"We've got reason to suspect you murdered a woman, but what the hell you're a white man we'll just call it good. Car wash, doctor? Have a nice night!"

Christ #Monsterdon

Dr. asshole: "You're all right now"
Wife: "No you asshole, I almost got killed by a cursed catwoman/leopard that you used to date, you ,m'fer!"
#Monsterdon

So ends another #Monsterdon. Let us all give thanks to @Taweret for hosting, and our thanks to all the posters and lurkers who make this so awesome. And remember #Monsterdoners: That's what I call real hospitality.

Booo.

Not enough faces were eaten.

#monsterdon

So freedom from the curse was just a matter of running the leopard over with a car that has a silver hood ornament? #Monsterdon

"Let's just say we've run out of budget and the director's ready to wrap things up and get to the pub" #Monsterdon #CatGirl

I guess the abomination has ceased... #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

"Let's just say it has something to do with the conquest of mind over matter"

That literally explains nothing

#Monsterdon

this denouement is... just as tedious as the rest of the movie #monsterdon

Wait, so does Brian believe that there was a leopard now?

Police: " Leave your car with us, we'll clean all the evidence off it and give it back."

#Monsterdon

Sure fine, you can go

#monsterdon

"look, car accidents just happen, man" #monsterdon

"Are you certain you didn't hit two bumps?"
PHRASING
#monsterdon

Just wait until the coroner finds the contents of her stomach at the autopsy. #monsterdon

Oh no. I am a few minutes behind and everyone seems disappointed and angry.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

"...are you sure you didn't feel two bumps?"
"don't threaten me with a good time"

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

#Monsterdon 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 😱

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooo 😭

Those are some saucy looks she gave just before that poor kitty got smounched.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon They brought in the director of Tease-O-Rama (1955) just for this scene. Enjoy it folks, this is as risqué and dangerous as this movie gets:

Well, that was a scene!

#Monsterdon

This is anti-catgirl propaganda.

#monsterdon

That's IT!? GodDAMMIT movie! #Monsterdon #CatGirl

What a twat

#monsterdon

saved! by the Automobile! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon She couldn’t fly, Fwump!

@plaidtron3000

That orgasm killed her

#Monsterdon #CatGirl
