Bad Kitty: Film #159 – Cat People (1982)
Okay, so I was making my way through my HD DVD collection when my cat gave birth to kittens. Naturally, that day I had to watch Cat People. Frankly, it’s not that good. Sure, Nastassia Kinski is gorgeous and Malcolm McDowell proves why he was the go to guy for creepy in those days. But the story is a mess and the relationship between Kinski’s Irena and John Heard’s Oliver Yates doesn’t resonate as it needs to. Annette O’Toole’s Alice Perrin (also quite attractive) comes off as a bit of a simpleton in her obvious desire for Yates; another botched relationship.
Overall, if you want to see some nice looking female flesh, there’s plenty for you in Cat People. If you want an actual story, look somewhere else.
