Cat People


Cat People
Creepy, but not scary.
Erotic tale about leopards and humans.
I never heard about this movie until Inglourious Basterds
came into my life. One of the songs in the soundtrack
(David Bowie song) is the theme song to this movie.
Last year, I promised myself to watch every movie
that has a song that was referenced in Tarantino's Basterds.
My friend Mike from work happen to have a copy
of this flick. So here I am.
Not bad. A little underrated.
It's got a campy feel to it, kinda like a grindhouse picture.
I like the shots in this.
This is directed by Paul Schrader
(who wrote Taxi Driver, Rolling Thunder and Raging Bull).

Overall, semi decent flick
with an evil performance by Malcolm McDowell.
