1988. We are, of course, already spoiled by modern movies made by famous directors, with the involvement of Hollywood stars, with quality special effects, etc., etc. Therefore, this film in 2009 seems naive, childish, simple. But at the same time, those who are still able to watch old films (get into the spirit of those times, put yourself in the shoes of a viewer of those times) will find something interesting. Or just feel nostalgic about horror movies of the past. So, briefly about the film:
1. The film fits within its 90 minutes. There are no half-hour oohs and sighs at the moon and arguments about life and love. All the moments are shown as much as you need to understand what it’s all about.
2. The film was made for video, i.e. not for cinemas. It is quite understandable as it is rated PG-13.
3. about the cat. The `geniuses from science turned an affectionate pet into a dangerous and bloodthirsty monster. You’ll see the cat in all its glory, that’s true. But the monster the cat becomes is not. Half of it, actually. Probably to avoid seeing the assistant’s hand holding the stuffed toy monster. And the monster itself isn’t so bad, it’s not scary. But the main thing is the idea, right?
4. There is someone to look at and something to look at. The actors are not of the `first from the back alley’ variety (I’m talking about the older actors). The characters are interesting: macho self-confident and his cocky friend, a stupid, stubborn blonde and her girlfriend, a millionaire with two fakes, a yacht captain, interested in the return of the yacht and a modest biology student.
5. Have you ever seen a cat meow incessantly throughout the day, at times menacingly? And mostly when sitting alone or in her arms? And our protagonist can do it.
6. When a dangerous creature wants to attack you, do you stand there, screaming in terror and waiting for it to attack? No? Fools! Learn from the characters in the movie! Wait for it to gnaw and then fight it off!
7. If at the end of the movie, during a scary moment, they take a still picture and start zooming in on it in stages, at 3 second intervals, to get your attention, will you get scared? If so, then this movie was made just for you!
