#Monsterdon Brian! Roadkill! Okay fine. I was joking! Letβs all kill Brian!
#monsterdon If Dorothy walks down a dark alley and is confronted by a leopard that pops out and says "Heeeeeeeey, Adora" I am absolutely going to lose my mind
Heels off girls! It's killing time!
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
#Monsterdon *nice* car-on-cat-on-catgirl violence

#monsterdon

faster, pussycat
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
Shoulda named this movie Were-leopard in London.
@Genstar can confirm that you missed very little else. #monsterdon
I miss Allan.
Okay, so some randos found a leopard wandering around London, and the audience knows that its Lenore's Leopard minion. We then see that Lenore has leveled up into Greaser Goth Lenore and followed Dorothy to the boat themed family restaurant where Dorthy and Nick (the Leisure Suit Psychiatrist guy) are going.
Smoking a cigarette, she tells Dorothy that she loves Nick, which she takes rather matter of factly with "but you married another man (shrug)."
Ah yes police with Lee-Enfield rifles. The Bobbys know how to roll when they want to. #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
Dorothy doesn't strike me as too bright, just accepting her hubs would meet her in a rough area at 10pm and then waiting
Leopards? In My Area? #monsterdon
Leopard leopard, scared of lights.
Like a frightened cat in the night.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
leopard street
Is this where the phrase "cat fight" came from?
#monsterdon
Leonora: "Til death parts you."
Dorothy: "Why do you say that?"
Isn't is obvious, Dorothy? She's threatening you.
It has been far too long since anybody got eaten
Well that scene was disappointingly straight
DENMARK STREET? #monsterdon
This movie was released in 1957, which, in British years, was 1938. #Monsterdon
Woah - hope those police officers remembered to bring their leopard handcuffs!
I guess this will be one of that sudden end #monsterdon movie
Oh, oh, she's got her spiky eyebrows on, that's not good.
Lenore comes over to visit Dorothy (the wife of psychiatrist guy), where she wanders about and threatens to eat her bird. And maybe eats her bird; I wasn't paying too much of attention. Then Dorothy wanders out to meet the psychiatrist guy for a midnight snack or something; the orchestral music tells us that this is Momentous.
What are the cops going to do when they catch up with the leopard? Scold it? #monsterdon
"I decided to come after all."
I've decided I'd like to be a FRIEND of Dorothy :3 #Monsterdon
hitting the leopard with the car would be on-point, though. #monsterdon
I think "look sharp" must mean something different in American English.
rought neighborhood. Lots of big cats lying around.
#monsterdon
@RobynGoodfellow in this movie kitty embraces you
Yes. YES. That's it. Embrace the kitty. #Monsterdon #CatGirl
#Monsterdon London Bridge is falling down.
"i'm sorry you won't come"
it's okay, i already had dinner. tweety was delicious.
#monsterdon
Dorothy knows what's up with this sexy velvet death shroud talk.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
Look at this poser wearing a leopard-print collar when she's not even a were-leopard
London: Before they build all the new stuff
Random pedestrians with a bike are being far too sensible.
Speaking of dinner. I'll just have a little appetizer... #monsterdon
Dorothy with a leopard print collar...
Go by yourself, I already ate.
Was it a canary or a... swallow.. #Monsterdon #CatGirl
Wow remember when restaurants were open at 10pm lol #monsterdon #thecatgirl
Chekhov leopard skin #monsterdon
If only there a small feather sticking out of her mouth. #monsterdon
#monsterdon did⦠did we just pass the bechdel test?
#Monsterdon birdie!
Brian is a psychiatrist? Clearly, not board certified.
"When I die,I want to be wrapped in velvet."
"What a charming thought." Have a drink. Beverages solve everything. #Monsterdon #catgirl1957
You can hear his real voice and his phone voice in the same room
#monsterdon
"No bad moments?"
Well I said something weird about velvet and I'm drooling over your canary, but otherwise things are fine. #Monsterdon
Yeah that bird doesn't have long for this world.
And then she calmly walks over to the table, and casually pushes the ringing phone onto the floor.
Shit, that bird is getting vored #monsterdon
Cage too small for birb. Flock too small for birb. The 50s are so cruel. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon urge.... to claw back... rising
"Velvet makes me want to curl up and sleep" And make biscuits for some reason. #Monsterdon #CatGirl
@gnomon "cat"astrophic hehe
EAT THE CANARY
Yeah, make your current wife spend time with your former lover who she dislikes. Great way to keep your everyone happy...
#Monsterdon that looked like an awkward coffee outing
He has a lot of βgood girlsβ #Monsterdon
This reminds me of all my conversations, except I often talk about velour instead of velvet.
Yeah doc, ask your wife to take care of your crazy furry ex-girlfriend
#monsterdon
I wrote a song once that was "Road Runner" by the Modern Lovers, but I changed it to "Cop Killer". I didn't change anything else.
"I want to make biscuits in velvet."
We've got 14 minutes, movie. It's time to decide what you're doing. #monsterdon
#monsterdon Feels like Brian's just getting wives to feed to the cat-girls at this point #catGirl
@ohiofi Yes, shopping, the well known third step after "relax!" and condescension.
And she lived happily ever after and was never a cat again
Coffee or Tea on that table? #Monsterdon #CoffeeWatch #CatGirl1957
Tea is served
Can you imagine if they just went and ended the movie there
#monsterdon
"i'll take that chance."
oh yeah, totally safe. absolutely send her out with your wife, whom she obviously dislikes. #monsterdon
"In the evening we'll be -- HAVE! We'll HAVE dinner!" #Monsterdon
Yes we lycan!
Heβs like Jerry Orbach on doucheroids. #Monsterdon
You know what this movie needs right now? #monsterdon
He's going to be super gaslighty when the murder mittens come out. #Monsterdon
If she's really a were-leopard she should have freckles #monsterdon
Flashlights are her weakness? Boo #Monsterdon #CatGirl
Wait, did she name the leopard Kill? Good name. Very appropriate.
commanding a leopard to kill, something completely antithetical to its nature, that will prove your control over it #monsterdon
what a dumb night watchman
#monsterdon

π₯ LOW BUDGET FILM SCHOOL πΈ
Don't expect to make a fine film for a low budget.
Example: Sam Arkoff was SHOCKED that there was no Cat Monster in the original finished movie, so he gave special effects artist Paul Blaisdell 3 days to create a furry cat mask and claws.
A cameraman shot extra footage with this mask slightly out of focus and it was spliced into the film. Blaisdell thought it looked "shoddy".
#CatGirl ππππππππππ
Vampire-adjacent kitty, I guess. Including the kind that makes everyone think its normal
I can't get into this #monsterdon because I hate all the characters.
@gnomon Claw-inating the countryside. Clawinating the adultrers. Clawingating all the peoples, and the thatched roof cottages. THATCHED ROOF COTTAGES.
... and then leopard comes in the niiiiiiiight!
If that's a night time park warden for a London Park he will have seen some mad shit....
Ha ha - the cat transition scene. Those were some interesting effects. Depended a lot on blurry photography.
Just give her some catnip and she'll be fine.
