After a fine opening credit sequence (thanks Robert Ellis) there follows three tales of feline revenge in various times and places; One about an old woman's will. one about a orphan girl being bullied and one about a horror film actor and his new paramour. This is all framed by a writer telling his publisher these tales as he wants to warn the world about the real nature of cats. It is a slow moving film and entirely predictable. Peter Cushing and Donald Pleasence stand out where the acting is concerned. Apart from them the best performers are the cats themselves and there are a lot of them, all shapes and colours. It's a shame none of them were credited.
