Cathy's Curse (1977)
3/10
Not one of my favorites, but not bad either

This is one of the many videos that I have seen containing possessed dolls enter innocent young children. It is not a good film and one that I would not recommend for my collection of horror movies, even if it was only $1.00 but I would recommend watching it at least once anyway. I cannot help but just laugh at this movie, some of the main characters reminding me of the cast of "Saturday Night Live" with Will Forte as the dad and Mya Rudolf as the mom. The old man getting drunk with the little girl was the most hilarious thing that I have ever seen. He seemed to be more of a perverted old man and the little girl a seductive teenager and the scene was all to surreal. It had it's moments of being slow paced and then somebody would get killed off and the movie would jump back up again but some of the death scenes in here like the old man throwing up whatever it was he ate and then the movie cut off from there and we find out later that he died from vomiting. I did not like the killing of the dog though, mainly because I hate the killing of animals but mostly whenever we are introduced into the movie with a family pet do we know that the poor thing is the first to go. This movie reminds me of one of those slow and boring British movies and not made in Canada although I liked the fact that the movie took place in the snow and cold weather, sorta like how "The Shining" did. Watch it for laughs but nothing more that that.
