Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …nicely worked, if predicable, and the cat attacks are suitably bloody… Rated: 3/5 Oct 29, 2022 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Even fans of horror anthology flicks (raising my hand here) might find themselves disappointed with the lackluster trio of tales assembled here.

Horror fan 4 Absolutely loved this anthology horror movie. Great cast and the cats were mean and terrifying. Tim Treakle Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/30/24 Full Review isla s My first thought on seeing this film is - I knew cats were evil what-nots and now this proves it! (sorry to cat owners but...yeah). Its a 1970s film with a b-movie feel to it (with the heavy use of incidental music and some lowish quality effects - why do the cats not appear to have blood on them, at least in the first tale?!). It's all a bit ludicrous (or is it?!) but it does have a somewhat sinister feel to it - I wouldn't say it's entirely convincing but either way it's entertaining and quirky I suppose. It probably goes without saying but I'll point it out anyway - there's a lot of miaowing in this film, so if that noise bothers you, then, suffice to say, this is a film to avoid. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Brad P ‘The Uncanny' is a Purrfect Cat-Centric Horror Anthology Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/04/23 Full Review Audience Member What cats really want. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I loveeee this film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member I have been looking everywhere for this movie. My aunt rented this years ago and I was teased forever because my name is Angela Blake and so is the character in this movie. It makes you look at cats in a whole new way....
