 Review
In this "old dark house" in England an old woman is murdered and her cat witnesses it. The "cat knows" who did it. Then commences a cat and mouse game where the killers are afraid of the cat and the cat seeks revenge on them.
Written by George Baxt, Hammer at first was not interested in filming it. Then when they needed an extra film to pair with Curse Of the Werewolf they asked BHP to make it for them. BHP was a short-term partnership including Baxt and Jon Penington. BHP used Hammer's personnel and Bray location, but they owned the rights to it. It was not unusual for other production companies to make films for Hammer, Hammer usually getting the rights for them. Two years later when BHP closed the rights were passed to Hammer.
I find the film very satisfying.
