Viewing Notes

Wow. I’m so glad I stayed at the Box of Horrors for this movie. Admittedly I was nudged by not locating a version of it online to buy or streaming. Figuring this would be the only way I could see this I had to stay and I was surprisingly awake at 6am. Well worth it!

I see that IMDb calls this “horror” but it’s really a crime thriller that just so happens to have some horrific elements. Namely this batshit bloodthirsty cats. This is a movie I will look for to own. Or maybe it will show up on TCM and I can record it. It’s so much fun and totally nuts. And I’d like to watch it under better conditions because I did struggle to stay awake. Oh and Gayle Hunnicutt is a dime. Her beauty is distracting.

This is also a GREAT San Francisco movie! It’s wild to me that I’ve seen a few SF flicks shot on location in recent times.
