The Black Cat
dir. Lucio Fulci · 1981
The struggle between good and evil often leads to unforeseen consequences that can haunt us long after the conflict is over.
A psychic named Robert Miles discovers he can control the mind of his black cat, using it as an instrument of vengeance against those he perceives as enemies. As a photographer investigates the mysterious deaths linked to Miles and his feline companion, the film unfolds with a palpable sense of dread and psychological horror. Watching it is like being drawn into a dark, twisted tale where the boundaries of reality blur, and the supernatural reigns supreme.
Psychic Robert Miles can communicate with the dead. He also has the ability to control the mind of his black cat and uses it to wreak vengeance on his enemies. A photographer who happens to be working for the local constables begins to notice cat scratches on some of the accident victims who are turning up. She pays a visit to Miles (kitty just happens to be present) and conveys her suspicions of the cat's involvement in some of the local deaths. Kitty doesn't like this at all, and it's his turn to control the mind of owner Miles to take his vengeance out.
