Cat Out of the Bag Alert! This review contains some spoilers for this film!

Synopsis: More killings are inevitable in this sequel to the original classic slasher film.

Cat Burglar (Scene Stealer): The film begins with Alice (Adrienne King) remembering the horrifying events of the last film. She has been left traumatized by her encounter with Jason’s mother. In her home alone, she hears a crashing sound outside. Cautiously and armed with an ice pick she approaches the window and draws back the curtains. A Spring-Loaded orange and white cat comes flying through the opening with a screech, scaring her. Actually the cat actor is thrown, or rather catapulted, through the window.

Recovering from the initial shock, Alice asks her cat, “You want something to eat?”

Alice opens the refrigerator to find the severed head of Jason’s mother. Jason then shoves the icepick into the side of Alice’s head. During all of this the cat just seems to be waiting for food.
