Stephen King's Cat's Eye Reviews
Hokey 80's stuff.
This is a very mild mid 80's horror film. Most Stephen King based films seem to have a distinct style. Cat's Eye is another classic King along these lines, a little bit of a hokey production. Another movie adapted from one of King's novella style short stories in his early days, a la; "Tales from the darkside" and "Creepshow". A story in 3 parts from a cats point of view, These tales eminating from Kings fertile warped imagination, seem to be a milder form of horror than some other works. Although not realy a comedy and not realy a horror, it's nowhere near his quirkiest. Sometimes the simple stories are transfered better than others from his literature and suited the theme at the time, to come up with a collection of short stories with a twist. As a Stephen King fan I can watch and enjoy anything based from his work , so if you're expecting to be thrilled by this film, check your allegiance as a 'King' fan first. Otherwise it could be mistaken as realy bad 80's film!
It's the cat's meow!
I watched Cat's Eye last night, for the first time in at least 15 years, and I'm happy to say it STILL doesn't disappoint. Not as dated as you'd expect after all this time either. Cat's Eye isn't scary, though has some suspenseful moments. I don't think anyone would be scared except small children (in particular for the last story) but they shouldn't be watching this sort of thing anyway.
As a smoker, the Quitters Inc. segment made me wish they had some sort of smoking cessation program such as. And for the gambling segment, I about died when he kicks the pigeon! Hilarious! The final story is also quite fun with the little monster. If you're looking for something unusual to keep you entertained, give this movie a try. It's a classic!
