Viewing Notes

Have these Val Lewton DVD sets from the library so knocking a few of them out. The Curse of the Cat People (1944) just isn’t all that. Not terrible but not compelling and mostly boring. Feels more like a cash-in on the name since it’s not really related to the first film in story or tone. Maybe if Tourneur had directed?
