This review contains a mild Kitty Carnage Warning for rough handling!

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

Synopsis: A film crew sets sail on several houseboats to film a music video while being stalked by a crazed killer in this low budget Australian horror flick.

Kitty Cameo: In one scene two girls are playing Trivial Pursuit when the resident goofball throws a hapless tuxedo cat onto the board, scaring everyone. Before this we weren’t even aware there was a cat on the boat!

The blonde proceeds to cradle the nervous feline.

The cat shows up again when another woman goes outside to give the kitty a bowl of milk. The cat seems to want to go inside the boat instead, which is understandable when it is revealed someone has placed some kind of unrecognizable viscera all over the wall.

Closer to the end of the film another woman leaves a dish of milk for the cat who does not come when called. The killer enters and spots the cat wisely sitting still on a chair and not moving.

The cat is then on the floor as the killer enters the cabin and kills the woman. Thankfully the cat presumably survives.

Final Mewsings: The cat couldn’t keep the characters in this film straight, either!

Many thanks to Wahrhaftig for letting us know about the cat in this film.
