He just keeps telling her she's fine and ignoring her problems. He's the worst psychiatrist of all time. #Monsterdon #catgirl1957

This movie could really turn things around if Cat Girl realized that she's actually the one with the power now and just fucking owned it and killed all these controlling assholes. #Monsterdon #CatGirl

Nurses are supposed to tend to wounds?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 😱

DOOO ITTT 🐆 👨‍⚕️ 🩸 💀

"I'm a professional, Leonora. Our relationship must be limited to my telling you that you are mentally disturbed and injecting you with highly addictive sedatives."

#Monsterdon

All this trouble could've been avoided if her husband would just learn how to find the clitorus

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Maybe an ex-lover shouldn't be your primary psychologist...

#Monsterdon 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 😱

but why did she get scratches on her back?

get the leopard on speed-dial, Leonora #monsterdon

Ah yes the old "shouting RELAX at someone" intervention.

#Monsterdon

"I know you well enough to bypass some formalities"

that quote might be slightly inaccurate, but OMG ethics fail!!!

#Monsterdon

All she needs is a superheroine costume and her mind will accept it all #monsterdon

"...heeere kitty kitty kitty"

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

Lady, do not fall into this man's arms.

#Monsterdon

slap her again
#monsterdon

"Last night I was an animal!"

I was an aardvark! An anteater! I spent a fortnight in Paris as a wombat! #Monsterdon

*more* naked lady back? oh my #monsterdon

Okay, so we went to London but are still hearing growling noises outside, even though there are probably few giant cats in London, because our mind is still bound to the cat. We look at our hands and then we transform into a leopard... or maybe psychically project ourself into the body of a leopard and imagine that we are turning into a furry? I'm going with the second one, maybe?

The next morning we are back to our human self?

#monsterdon

I SO want to kill him. #Monsterdon

Honestly, Barbara Shelley is putting in a first rate performance, despite everyone else's wooden acting.

#Monsterdon

all she needs is a proper set of enrichment toys and some nice wildebeast honestly

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

It’s pretty much a remake of Cat People (1942) but less atmospheric #monsterdon

Irresponsible of the psychiatric hospital to have a tropical rainforest right outside to hide big cats

#Monsterdon

i don't know what's going on here at all, but i already hope cat girl eats 100% of these fuckers before the credits roll.

#monsterdon

The director's thinly disguised fetish: The cold shoulder look.

#monsterdon #thecatgirl

Now _that's_ a catsuit.

#Monsterdon

Don't worry Leonora, whoever you just ripped up definitely deserved it

#Monsterdon

"Had yourself quite a night!"

Fuck off, dude. What a dick. #Monsterdon

THAT IS NOT HOW CLAWS WORK #monsterdon

Awww she turned into a puddy-tat!
#monsterdon

OMG She's a fucking furry?

#monsterdon #thecatgirl

[Nekomimi intensifies]

#Monsterdon

CATGIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#Monsterdon

Not since the Wasp Woman has there been such a transformation! #Monsterdon

Ah this car and this countryside 🥲

#Monsterdon

There should have been a running gag where everyone thought the growling sounds were someone's hungry stomach, but no one would own up to it.

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

oh she's actually transforming now. the girl has been catted

#monsterdon

At least it's a high-def hallucination?

#Monsterdon

Yay, a transformation sequence! Magical Girl Feline Leonora!

#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

LEONORA: Wait, are these 600 thread count pajamas?

#Monsterdon

Here we go, a little Gabapentin and we'll be ready to see the vet :D #Monsterdon

@sean Unfortunately laser pointers were not available in the UK back then #monsterdon

That car looks like it had the word "Bomb" written on the side door in cursive

#monsterdon

"why don't you girls sit in the back and get to know each other... maybe I'll take a turn too fast and someone's blouse comes unbuttoned, who knows..." #monsterdon

So is kitty hiding in the boot, or... #Monsterdon

lol, the psychiatric nurse looking at her like a piece of filth, biting social commentary there!

#Monsterdon

Oh, Dottie. With your bottle-blonde hair and your cigarette. How long until your demise?

#Monsterdon

The housekeeper is safe because leopards refuse to eat people pretending to be German. #monsterdon

“You are beyond help, my child” #Monsterdon

Cat Girl's dress reminds me of the time I was 6 years old (1980) and my mom and I were watching the Miss America pageant on TV, and I asked how all the women's dresses stayed on, why didn't they fall down? She laughed and said, "Their boobs hold them up," and I had...just....so many questions.

#Monsterdon

@apLundell Probably not allowed to drive, etc

#monsterdon

"I thought we were going to the town for the shops, now we're driving your Ex down to London?!"

#Monsterdon

this leopard is like when a person has a parrot that outlives them and suddenly their next of kin are saddled with a creature that's basically a toddler with a pair of pliers who can fly #monsterdon

Drunk: "Let's take the dead guy's car, he won't need it."
Cat Lady: "Take it and GO."
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon "Why not take Richard's car. Leonora won't want it."

Yeah, of course. Why would she want to keep her husband's car.

@starkraving666 @Lazarou I think it's held up with adhesive #monsterdon

Multiple deaths... sex, obvious mind control, fancy pjs, and some purring. #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

She's no Animala #monsterdon

Catfight! #Monsterdon

"I'd like you to agree to a period of confinement in a cardboard box."

#Monsterdon

you can't blame her, if i saw my husband cheating on me i would absolutely channel my cat powers and shred him up some #monsterdon

Suddenly remembering that this is consistent with some versions of lycanthropy, ones where you didn't actually turn into an animal (after selling your soul to Satan in exchange for a magic fur you could put on, in some versions), but rather the animal was linked to you.

#monsterdon

I wonder if I can check off "She acts like an actual cat" and "Claw attack" at the same time

#Monsterdon

I KILLED MY HUSBAND

Haha now now, little lady, maybe you need a nap

#Monsterdon

cat fight! haha get it #monsterdon

oh wait, is her dress supposed to evoke cat ears?? #monsterdon

need to check the house for explosions with this much gas lighting #monsterdon

#Monsterdon He’ll give you Thorazine! You’ll growl and you’ll claw, and float three feet over the bedspread. Rotating like a rotisserie chicken!

#Monsterdon Just yesterday there was a fatal leopard attack in this household and the leopard hasn't been found, but sure, have sex outside on the grounds.

#monsterdon This is the 2nd movie we've watched with coitus interruptus felem, isn't it (the first being Re-Animator)?

edit: Accusative case?

#Monsterdon 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 😱

CATGRRLLLLED excellent and thank goodness

"I'd like to offer my deepest sympathies,"

But really it was too funny. We all laughed *so hard,* it was hilarious. #Monsterdon

Consider that a divorce. #Monsterdon #CatGirl

here we go baby, i'm tuned back in now that cat girl is locked in and shredding #monsterdon

oh good, she ate him first. yay!

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

This movie's got some good shots in it. Over all kinda flat blocking and small flat rooms. But couple of good moody bits.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

And no one of value was lost.

#Monsterdon

eyebrow transformation!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon the psychologist's dialogue was written by someone who had heard that they existed and did exactly that much research.

God, straight people are so gross #monsterdon #thecatgirl

C'mon miss, time to get serious. Eye of the...

Hm.

Never mind. #Monsterdon

Calm down...lady! #monsterdon

nah, Def Leppard, eat the bookburner first! #monsterdon

"I've hurt you" says the woman who got slapped. Fuck that guy.

#monsterdon

I hope this movie ends with a literally Leopards Eating People's Faces Party and I hope they start with that guy

#monsterdon

#monsterdon omg!!

Ripping up a 700-year-old book is a sure way to lose any sympaw-thy I may have had for you

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Oh yeah, the book burning guy has to die.

Why is she named Leonora? Shouldn't it be Leopardina or something? #Monsterdon

Violence against literature? Eat his face!
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

Wait, he slaps her and she apologizes?
oh, the misogy...
#monsterdon

"The others can go. I'm sure leopards won't eat *my* face."

#monsterdon

Don't rip the book you asshole #monsterdon #thecatgirl

I really don't like this controlling and manipulative doctor, and occasional book burner.....

#Monsterdon

"Am I out of my mind?"

To be in this movie, yes.

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

"I'm talking to you now as a book burner" #monsterdon

everyone knows the best way to help someone who is having a pathological obsession with objects or ideas is to simply burn those objects and tell them they are bullshit #monsterdon

Death to the book-burner guy. Get his ass.

#Monsterdon

Ah yes... Book Burning. That always ends well.

#Monsterdon

look, if your uncle's dead

you can start cleaning out all the taxidermy, that may help. #monsterdon
