When the wealthy Ella Venable (Catherine Lacey) is murdered at the behest of her husband, Walter (André Morell), the only witness is her beloved cat, Tabitha. As Ella's niece Beth (Barbara Shelley) attempts to uncover the truth, Walter and his accomplices fall foul of a series of cat-related 'accidents'. The Shadow of the Cat is an atmospheric 'old dark house' tale of feline revenge. (Powerhouse Films)

The Shadow of the Cat is another film from Hammer Studios that definitely did not disappoint. It has something interesting and inventive about it. It's a shame that the film shows its age too much, with the ravages of time evident, as well as the limitations of the technology available at the time of filming. As a gothic horror, however, the film is still worth your attention and shouldn't be overlooked.
