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

"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.
#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

There's a fine line between giving actors too much direction and none at all

#monsterdon

"I need a drink"

So British....

#Monsterdon

Easter's canceled kids... #monsterdon

@Bluedepth probably about time I learned what that references

#Monsterdon

@Lazarou It's like eating an edible nowadays #monsterdon

Young newlywed couple arriving at mysterious house during a rainstorm is the plot of another story! #monsterdon

He's quite a cad.

#monsterdon

Did you hear that?

No I can't hear anything over all the Big Cat Rumbles

#Monsterdon

Whenever I'm invited to a strange British manor, I ALWAYS check the dusting job...

#monsterdon

Don't you just hate it when you invite one person over and they invite three others along and demand coffee at midnight?

#Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

Pleeeeease let the #BarbaraShelley character's scumbag husband become cat food! 🐆 #TheCatGirl 🐈‍⬛ #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon man that jaguar is making weird bird noises

@Lazarou It's all in the service of Bechdel #monsterdon

Allen: "What is this? A training school for ghouls?"

#Monsterdon

Yeah, let's order the OLD LADY WITH A CANE to carry the luggage upstairs. #Monsterdon #CatGirl1957

“What is this place—A training school for ghouls?” #Monsterdon

A training school for ghouls! 👻

#Monsterdon

@catzilla I didn't see she had no shoes! Dang. Brave considering all the glass everywhere.

#monsterdon

See how she talks to the staff?

Bitch!

#Monsterdon

I have no idea what is going on #monsterdon #thecatgirl

#Monsterdon I couldn’t come alone. I had to pack snacks.

Smelly cat, smelly cat, what are they feeding you?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon get out of the car! Fetch me coffee. Fetch. Me. Coffee. Woman!

I know who I want to be mauled...
#monsterdon

Time to clean the litter box

#monsterdon #catgirl1957

@Lazarou I think it wouldn't be good for the big cat though #monsterdon

Ominous dancing-in-the-bar scene gets us started. Glorious black and white.

#monsterdon

@allanb SAME. #Monsterdon

Leaving candles unattended on top of books seems like a very unwise thing to do #monsterdon

as it is ours to get motion sickness from one. #monsterdon

THE RAIN IS OVER WE ARE GOING OUT

TO THE CO-OP

ON OUR EBIKES

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

"She will come. She has no choice."

(bites tongue)

#Monsterdon

I'm seeing only one that I wouldn't want slashed within about 15 minutes. And I think she will be slashing.

#monsterdon #CatGirl

Some people drink to get laid, others prefer the company of a bottle

#monsterdon

I hope the leopard spirit takes a bite out of hubby #monsterdon

@lytta I always just thought that's how movie characters are

And presumably Hollywood writers

#Monsterdon

They got married, but they're both still carrying flames for their exes? #monsterdon

@allanb so are they

#monsterdon #CatGirl1957

'she's not even my only wife' #monsterdon

He was a dogboy, she will be a cat girl, it would never work out.

#monsterdon

Doesn't anybody clear the empty glassware from these tables?

#monsterdon

This lady's so be-turtlenecked and overcoated and "plain" makeup'd I have a feeling she's going to be a real sex kitten (get it) later

#Monsterdon

Devil Cat Girl From Mars. Now _There's_ a movie. #Monsterdon #CatGirl

Ahh, the days when a man would sit next to you, smoke, and exhale in your face while talking to you

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe i assume the Devil Girl herself will soon show up and liven this movie up. #monsterdon

DARK AND STORMY NIGHT! *drink*!

#Monsterdon

God I miss the days when smoking didn’t cause cancer or heart disease. #Monsterdon

Ahhhh, that's why there are a hundred glasses on the table. Everyone who stops by leaves their glass.

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

Of course the American has no tie, is smoking, and blows smoke on you. #monsterdon

Shove what off what? Or who?
#Monsterdon

Wedded bliss is a reason to drink...

#Monsterdon

Starting right in on the horror with British middle-class banter. #Monsterdon

It looks like a porn director with the collar #monsterdon

Seems like a miserable British marriage.

#monsterdon

a lady, her childhood bar. #monsterdon

oh boy drunk brits
#monsterdon

He hasn't even touched his Guinness.

#Monsterdon #CatGirl

@gnomon I noticed that too, I agree!

With two of us that makes it official

#Monsterdon

back in 1957 when everyone talked like they were pretending to be british people with the back of their tongue completely anaesthetized #monsterdon

So far, this is the scariest scene of the whole first minute of the movie.

#Monsterdon

launching my #monsterdon thread for The Cat Girl (1957), a monster movie that is not to be confused with the other many cat girls on the mastodons.

Monsterdon is a thing where we watch an old monster movie together each week and make fun of it. If that sounds fun to you, feel free to join us next week; if that sounds boring to you, feel free to mute the hash tag to avoid 9999+ posts about a 1950s movies with a cat girl or something.

Britiish hula dancers in the background. #monsterdon

I don't really get motion sick but good grief this movie print jumps around!

#Monsterdon

Aww I feel kind of bad for the leopard, I'm pretty sure it didn't ask for any of this

#Monsterdon

I'll have whatever Dancing Background Girl is having #monsterdon #thecatgirl

Sexism in 1957? Say it ain't so!

Seriously, what did you expect?

#Monsterdon

oh yes, she seems to be having a great time, sir. more drinking please. (-_-) #monsterdon

Oh wow, he's a prat.

#Monsterdon

Kitty! #Monsterdon #CatGirl

If I don't move, maybe he can't see me #monsterdon

*Turns and whispers to wife* That’s cat girl

#monsterdon #catgirl1957

that's no way to treat a leopard....

#Monsterdon

Go home cameraman you're DRUNK. #Monsterdon #CatGirl

There better be some cats in the #CatGirl movie. #monsterdon

it was a dark and stormy night like this many years ago when we first saw... THE CAT GIRL #Monsterdon

@gnomon End credits, lol, if we could be so lucky

#Monsterdon

"He was! He entered into the body of a leopard... just like I entered this fork-lift of a dress. Come hug me! Let me impale you upon my Twin Spikes of Doom!!!"

#MONSTERDON #TheCatGirl

@diazona If you're a first cousin twice removed or something it doesn't even confer lycanthropy, you just scoot your ass around on the carpet every once in a while when you get worms. #theCatGirl #catGirl #monsterdon

"Oh, won't these nails Ever dry...?"

#MONSTERDON #TheCatGirl

"Well, I've given you a shot of Heroin. Now I want you to get into bed..."
