Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
torifying-101-29863 I loved this film! I've seen both versions and I own both versions interesting to see the differences. Just to let u know I have a DVD with theatrical cut and TV cut and theatrical trailer all one DVD great quality. It is a severely underrated film that sends chills up and down spine and Gayle Hunnycutt is awesome!!! The story line is quite simple but the acting is really where it gets you. And if you're afraid of cats STAY AWAY there are PLENTY loll especially in the theatrical version! For instance the theatrical cut has MANY cats giving Gayle her just do! In the TV cut there is one. However the TV one has alternate scenes which, If you are a fan of the fantastic film, you will be quite interested in seeing. I especially love movies like this that barely rely on any blood but the Words and the tension of the story build up the terror. I've definitely given This film a 10 and I feel it definitely deserves it !
ptb-8 This is a solid TV movie look horror movie from Universal who specialized at the time in good strong B movies made in Technicolor and released into drive ins and crumbling weekly change houses. In Sydney at the Capitol Theatre 2500 seats were there each session. Often a film like LOST FLIGHT or THE KILLERS or ANGEL IN MY POCKET or COLOSSUS THE FORBIN PROJECT or THE LOVE GOD etc all like that mentioned above from Universal got a berth there for a week inbetween AIP Poe horrors and Paramount reissues. I saw EYE OF THE CAT as a double feature with the Carroll Baker thriller SWEET BODY OF DEBORAH... a terrible title for a good 'is my husband a killer' Euro ski lodge style thriller, very snazzy and in retro, a very good double feature. Today both these films would do very well if new and in multiplexes, then they just had a guest appearance for 6 days (closed Sunday) and off to some remote drive ins in the countryside... never on TV never on video and never heard of again. Read other comments for the excellent well informed reactions and storyline. Hey, what ever happened to Michael Sarrazin? He even was a 70s Streisand leading man in FOR PETE'S SAKE and a great Margo Kidder thriller dude THE REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD.
katmom6996 I absolutely love this movie, but am unable to find it anywhere on VHS or DVD. I watched this movie years ago. It had two endings. The first ending has the people at the end being attacked by the Aunt's cats. They knew the bad intentions of the evil nephew. I love cats, horror, and this movie. It is suspenseful all the way through it.Great movie for us oldies who love suspense and horror. Today's scary movies are all blood and guts, and repetitive. In the old days, one movie stood out from others-like this one. My hope is that I can find a station that is willing to show this movie again.Great, great, great.
ralphsampson You won't know who to root for, if anybody, in this Hitchcockian caper film, which seemingly pits Gayle Hunnicut and Michael Sarazin up against Hunnicut's Aunt in order to steal her fortune -- or does it? And what is it all really about anyway? The location camerawork in San Francisco is terrific. And, Linden Chiles scores highly in a key supporting role.
