The Curse of the Cat People

In this haunting, Val Lewton-produced sequel to the 1942 shocker, a lonely young girl with an overactive imagination suddenly makes two new friends: an aging, reclusive actress estranged from her own daughter, and, much more unusually, the spirit of her father's first wife, who died believing she was descended from the titular race of "cat people." Kent Smith, Simone Simon, Jane Randolph, Ann Carter, Julia Dean star; co-directed by Robert Wise (his directorial debut). 70 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English.
