Far from being a horror film, it's a touching, perceptive and lyrical film about childhood, psychologically astute and occasionally disturbing as it focuses entirely on the child's-eye view of a sad, cruel world.
Top Critic
Marvellously eloquent, and touchingly accurate in accessing the secret landscape of a child's mind.
Top Critic
Often unjustly neglected in favour of its predecessor, The Curse of the Cat People is a great film in its own right, perhaps second only to the magical realist The Spirit of the Beehive as an evocation of the horrors of childhood.
This picture remains one of the most ethereal looks at childhood the cinema has produced.
Top Critic
Made as sequel to the profitable Cat People, this is highly disappointing because it fails to measure up as a horrific opus.
Top Critic
One of the weakest movies from the Val Lawton unit. It's difficult to tell whether it's a horror film, a ghost story of just the imaginings of a sad, lonely, little girl.
It makes a rare departure from the ordinary run of horror films and emerges as an oddly touching study of the working of a sensitive child's mind.
Top Critic
This rather silly follow-up to Cat People isn't so much unwatchable as it is merely unnecessary.
RKO expected to get another supernatural chiller, with people turning into panthers and killing folks in the streets. Boy, were they disappointed.
This movie is not for everyone, but children who can identify with Amy will like it.
