Audience Member Non thrilling "thriller" with a matronly looking Lana maintaining her dignity despite the cheapness of the script. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Lana Turner torments her son with years of psychological torture after the death of her prized cat in a jealous rage. Absurd scenes of white persian cat 'terrorizing' the son and his family mostly provide unintended laughs. A timepiece that holds some interest. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member An offbeat, arty suspense thriller about an evil, domineering mother, and the ghost of a cat with style and plot similarities (but a different story) to <I>The Oprhan</I> (1975). Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
