The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Is it a horror movie? A spoof? Are the movie's creators really trying to rip-off Fatal Attraction? Is this a movie about an alternative universe? I don't know.All I know is one night I was flipping channels and saw Timothy Busfield wrestling with a soggy kitty puppet and throwing it around his kitchen and had one of the best laughs of my entire life.I spent the next few years searching for this movie.When I finally saw it again and watched the whole thing I was bored to tears and irritated by the stupidity of the characters and late 80's "TV movie" budget. Then I got my money's worth.I love cats, don't get me wrong, but I find something inherently, cruelly, disturbingly funny about cats being abused in movies (ex: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation), and this one tops them all. See: **cats being flung at windshields**Kathleen Quinlan tossing (fake) cats around like dirty socks after she thinks they're eating her baby**K.Q. in the same scene squeezing a cat up against the wall with the door after it attacks her hateful girl-child. The cat grunts on the soundtrack, and I'm rolling on the couch in paroxysms of laughter**Timothy Busfield in a career-ending wrestling match with a gamey, fur covered puppet. He throws it out the window, chucks it into a microwave and threatens it with electroshock therapy, but it keeps coming back for more, always accompanied by those great stock "cat screech" sound f/x used in comedies.People who have an unhealthy love of cats as "cute, darling little pets" should stay away, they won't be amused. For the rest of us, who recognize that cats are cute but have claws and fangs for a reason (to kill things with) and think they're kind of weird and creepy even at the best of times, there are some unforgetful laff-out-loud moments.I'm laughing as I write this, thinking about the last scene. Thank you, Hollywood, for this stupid, stupid movie!!

This was a terrible movie! Apparently it never occurs to the morons in the movie to just leave the house. Although there wouldn't be a movie if they did just that. The scary cats made my cats look mentally challenged! But I did notice a few boo-boos. The cat at the top of the stairs under the box couldn't figure out how to get the box off of him but later he figured out how to jump through a pane of glass. All in all the movie sucked and I am sure didn't help any of the actors careers. I did notice that one of the twins that played the daughter went on to make "Cybersex Kittens". How ironic.

Can you see the headline: 'Stray Cats Terrorize Household, Kill Three?' Sounds ludicrous, doesn't it? This movie actually makes a pretty good argument of how it's possible. Stray cats who've been neglected by humans don't fear them and don't like them. They've become feral so when you muscle in on their domain, they get aggressively defensive. Well, maybe not all cats do that. Just the "dominant male cat" and his posse in this movie.However, the only cat that actually looks scary in this movie is the dominant male - probably a robo-puppet - who appears to be always wet for some reason but still fears water. The others cats are scattered around the house to look like troops but they simply seem like confused cats mewing in protest. It's not hard to see how this movie would fail to be scary. If someone clutching a mess of fur to their chest while writhing about in supposed agony isn't silly enough, what about seeing someone shoot a cat with a water-gun? And do you remember all those thrillers in which they use the tried-and-true but totally manipulative and pointless tactic of having a cat suddenly leap from the dark and make everyone jump? Well this movie finally has a legit reason to use that trick but it doesn't. Sheesh.

Laughably bad horror flick about a group of stray cats that live underneath a house. For some reason or another (it is never explained) the cats kill all people they come in contact with. Good for a few laughs, but nothing else. The premise is one of the worst ones I have seen in years and why some respectable actors choose to make this is beyond me. Originally a made for TV movie that aired on USA.Rated PG-13; Violence.
