The Black Cat (1981) • Discape

When you hear this cat breathing down your neck… start praying!

The Black Cat (1981) centers on a small English village terrorized by a mysterious string of deaths linked to a sinister black cat and a psychic photographer who may control it. As an American reporter investigates, she uncovers a chilling connection between man and beast that blurs the line between the supernatural and the psychological. This atmospheric horror combines gothic mystery, eerie rural settings, and the macabre touch of Italian suspense.
