That Cat looked like some kind of demented toy in a David Lynch movie


The cat is so surreal looking.
It looks so unatural.
I can't figure out how they got it to move (to small for a human to be in costume).
It looks like some type of demented toy that came to life in a David Lynch movie.

Yes that was an actor in the cat costume .. look at the credits for the movie.. the cat costume was not that small that an actor could not fit into it.

Yes that mouse made me very happy as a little boy.
Even to this day.

I love the scene where the mouse is flying inside the blimp,
dropping Bombs on the cat people.
Very cool.

The mouse and the cat are definitely the funniest characters in this movie, at least to me. The fact that they are so surreal looking is what makes them funny. Especially the way the mouse moves, because its is a monkey in a costume it just made that much more hilarious.

It was supposed to be a mouse though, right? The monkey tail kind of confuses things.

The cat and monkey-mouse monstrosity always creeped the hell out of me.
