SHE WILL KILL AND EAT YOU BRIAN, DON'T REJECT HER.

#Monsterdon

"Be a good girl-"

Kill! KILL!! #Monsterdon

oh yeah, sedate all your problems away! #monsterdon

@OldRustBucket@universeodon.com this is what I was promised!!! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon we’re one and the same. Gassy tigers. Pull my tail! Please! For the love of god! Grant me release! Light a match! Anyone have Febreeze!?!

. o O ( This is great! I'll be able to get her committed and have the whole estate! )

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

"Brian, now you've dosed me up, fuck me...."

#Monsterdon

i love when fictional characters are like 'i can't believe i want to kill and eat animals, like an ANIMAL' when they're 100% omnivorous and eat meat all the time

#monsterdon

Isn't wanting to feel blood on your hands just the experience of being a woman in the 1950s? #Monsterdon

"Something to quiet your nerves" probably morphine... #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

"I became like a savage animal!"

I ate three whole peanuts, I was out of control! #Monsterdon

I was hoping when she took off the sunglasses we'd see some late 1950s glass contact lenses to make her eyes look like cat eyes.

#Monsterdon

Wait her eyebrows are normal again.

#monsterdon #thecatgirl

Did I just hear scratching at the door?

#Monsterdon

Uncle Vampire tells Lenora she must send her friends away from the spooky castle, and also dump her cheating husband, because their line needs to die out so no one is cursed by being a werecat.

She thinks this is dumb and/or horrible and runs away; then Uncle Vampire decides to sacrifice himself, which is done by breaking a ceramic cat and then letting his jungle cats eat him. Then the curse is transferred to Lenora.

#monsterdon

a "mental doctor" hmmm
#monsterdon

"So you're going to pass on a blood lust."
"Okay, great - let me get a coffee."

#monsterdon

I though she was going to rub the blood all over herself sensually, but no

#monsterdon

He DID ask for it...

#Monsterdon

Inspector: "He asked for it."

WTF? Is that his professional opinion?

#Monsterdon

Go on, girl get your transformation o-

oh

never mind :/ #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 😱

OH he gets to hug the leopard!

SHE'S GOT THE TASTE OF BLOOD #monsterdon

The ritual smashing of the sculpture! Ha! Now he's done it! Look out everyone! It's on!

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

I don't understand this curse.

Where does it come from?

#monsterdon #thecatgirl

Leopards? Eating His Face? #monsterdon

Uncle nom-nom #monsterdon

#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957
A group photo before the slaughter begins!
- Barbara Shelley as Leonora Johnson
- Jack May as Richard Johnson (husband)
- Patricia Webster as Cathy (hottie)
- John Lee as Allan

yeah I'm not really seeing the downside here. You get his house and a huge pet cat.

Like, was the cat a complete dick to the guy or something?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Other *three rooms?

So you just assume she won't be sharing a room with her husband?

CAT HUGS!

#monsterdon

"Touch it" excuse me? #monsterdon

She didn't need much convincing to join the forces of darkness and abusive exotic pet care. But that instant regret!

#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

NGL, being drunk makes this movie very enjoyable. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon WOAH DUDE JUST ASKED HER TO TOUCH HIS PUSSY!

You cannot escape your Destiny's Child?!?! #monsterdon

#monsterdon 🎵 touuuuuch it, it's so easy to leaaaaaaave it

No GO, girl, run around in the forest in a thin nightdress like a goth princess should! #Monsterdon

Wait so she doesn't turn into a cat, she just possesses a cat? Is that what the curse is implying? Boo! We want were-women!
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

So if they would just stop having kids the curse would end? Seems like an easy answer TBH

#monsterdon #CatGirl

It is the catification chamber! She’s now ready to be catified forever! #monsterdon

I have a husband, I am NOT a cat lady!!

#Monsterdon

Pet the kitty head! PET IT! Now go pss pss pss pss. #Monsterdon #CatGirl

Lenora was trained at the "don't move your face" school of acting.

#monsterdon

I don't think this kind of feline is native to england
#monsterdon

He's got a big art piece with a leopard chomping a chunk of a man!
That's a bold look. Probably was talked about down at the pub.

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

Cat powers acquired, I guess?

#Monsterdon

Wait... the curse is to have a constant feline companion? Quelle horreur! #Monsterdon

Behind the ears, please. #monsterdon

"...my cat name is Lionel, and you will now be known as Cheetara!"

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

" You have been reading too many of these books."

"I read them for the articles, not the pictures of naked women...."

#monsterdon

awww headpats for the kibty
#monsterdon

The writer of this film got really lost on their way to the vampire store. #monsterdon

UNLEASH THE BEAST
#monsterdon

@riedlr Writer's barely disguised fetish strikes again

#Monsterdon

Eat those 'friends', they're jerks

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon “700 years ago we were cursed by a witch doctor! He called our family pussies. And so, we have fulfilled the prophesy!”

"Two separate entities. One a cat, one a girl."
#Monsterdon

Just having a leopard in a cage does not prove the curse is real

This is a hustle....

#Monsterdon

700 years? No wonder some of that taxidermy is tatty.

#Monsterdon

oh okay so the uncle is also a werecat

#monsterdon

"Desire for raw flesh"... uh.... is this a porn?

#monsterdon

Uncle just fired the housekeeper at 3AM in the morning? What a dick.
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Try not to moan about it old man. Now we’ll need more sanitary napkins! Jesus! Someone get the wet dry vac!

Wait, do they taxidermy their relatives?!?!?!

#Monsterdon

the curse of being forced to keep this creepy taxidermy on display

#monsterdon

"the curse... to lick myself as a cat, while thinking as a human...." #monsterdon

#Monsterdon you're mad! Only a madman would have more than 6 stuffed cats!

Secret of that room

Bluebeard references much?

#Monsterdon

They keep bringing in dead birds from outside

#monsterdon #catgirl1957

I wonder how family curses are treated in estate law

#Monsterdon

@Lazarou Her hair is bulletproof #monsterdon

an unfortunate number of taxidermied big cats

#monsterdon

@brooke Very progressive for the 1950s theater.

#Monsterdon

"why is there kitty litter in the corner?" #monsterdon

Did he just fire her?
#monsterdon

Since they couldn't show anything, they had granny do some salacious exposition for us

#monsterdon

Do all the Housekeepers sound like Frau Blucher?
I didn't hear any horses whinnying.

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

Wait, she is sleeping NAKED? That IS wild, even for the 50s! Quit staring, hausfrau!

#Monsterdon

Elder gay energy.

#monsterdon #thecatgirl

@blue British audiences at the time would have gone wild #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon come please. Keep the screaming down. Grab a mop.

naked lady back, how continental #monsterdon

#Monsterdon “Oh! You made a yummy sound! Just then! Did you hear it?”

more like.... Meownton Abbey... am I right...

#monsterdon

Frau BLUCHER! #Monsterdon

The nutty old cat couple are delightful #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon acting so wooden, the only drink that will help is Everclear.

#monsterdon For future viewings of "The Cat Girl" (1957) you can have extra fun by <ctrl>-F find and replacing "Leopard" with "Stomach" in the subtitles file...

(Stomach growling)

"You were instructed to come alone!"

And given how loving and open and honest I've been with you, I can't IMAGINE why you didn't! #Monsterdon

I take it she's a cat girl, but just doesn't know it yet.

#monsterdon

@Lazarou Not on a level with Teal'c (from Stargate) though, who is the master of the "indeed"

#Monsterdon

do any nerds know what sort big cat they actually got those growling/roaring sound effects from. i'm pretty sure it's not actually from that spotty kitty (who i unfortunately cannot tell you whether it's a leopard or a jaguar)

#monsterdon

The Lady gives in to WILD, UNCONTROLLED URGES

...if this had been made now it would have been a really different movie. #monsterdon

I have caught up, hooray. Whole lotta nothing goin on.

#Monsterdon

Yes, she WOULD kill you. Both of you.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 🐈 👧 😱

OH NO I’m late!!

Keep thinking a bedraggled Klaus Kinski in Nosferatu makeup is going to slink by in the background.

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

Okay, so, um I guess the spooky gothic castle is also a hotel, and the coat lady's uncle is maybe the vampire guy? Anyway, out of the party, she is the most scared of staying here; maybe her uncle is a creep. Turns out she has Latent Secret Animal Powers and can listen to one of the Extremely Large Cats stalking a rabbit and growling.

She asks if the other pub denizens can hear this and they can't, because they're not otherkin or something. #monsterdon

Only a catgirl can hear the voice of a leopard. It's like alpha beta shit but for furries.
