If the title is The Curse of the Cat People, then the following question must be asked: where are
the cats?
The sequel has nothing to do with the original and is more of a remake than a continuation. Speaking of
tragedy, how about Oliver? Some Father of the Year he is. The ending is the final nail in the coffin when
Oliver lied to his daughter that he saw her imaginary friend.
Pretty much, the film is about neglect and parental abuse via spanking as they're condoned by the people
involved. Amy's parents should be reported to Family Services and the girl therefore placed in a better home
because what I had seen from her has been perfectly normal.
I thought Amy would be killed at the end, but it never happened which is a disappointment because it would've
made for a justifiable ending. By the way, the old woman needs to shut the hell up, drink more liquor, and
pass out for good.
All in all, once again, The Curse of the Cat People has no lives to begin with.
