❌
Eye of the Cat (1969)
Directed by David Lowell Rich
Quick Hit
Eye of the Cat throws horror on screen with real nerve, but the finish is underpowered. A decent premise gets left on the table.
Full Take
There’s a real hook here, but the follow-through decides the damage. When the rhythm drags or the trick is obvious, it starts leaking air fast. Once the mood is set, everything comes down to whether the film can cash in its own setup. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That’s the difference between a curiosity and a real hit.
