The Uncanny
They prowl by night...lusting for human flesh!
Directed by Denis Héroux
Produced by Cinévidéo, The Rank Organisation
A campy 1970s horror anthology that treats cats as sinister supernatural agents, blending genuine creepiness with B-movie absurdity and period charm.
Wilbur Gray, a horror writer, has stumbled upon a terrible secret, that cats are supernatural creatures who really call the shots. In a desperate attempt to get others to believe him, Wilbur spews three tales of feline horror.
