About this movie

Suffering a mental breakdown after the death of his cat, introverted loner Ted convinces himself that in order to bring his beloved pet back to life, he needs nine human lives to sacrifice in its place. Constructing a cat costume, complete with mask and razor-sharp claws, Ted embarks on a murderous rampage, slashing his way through share houses, backpacker hostels and webcam chat rooms in a savage frenzy. As the butchery escalates, a twisted and bleak romance blossoms between Ted and Claire, a young woman he meets in a support group for recently bereaved pet owners. Dave Jackson's debut feature "is a balls-to-the-wall assault on the senses" (Fakeshemp.net) for fans of WTF cinema. © Pinnacle Films 2012 (Original Title: Cat Sick Blues)

Ratings and reviews

I will point out the three things I enjoyed during the entire movie. One, it was shot well. two, the special FX makeup was well done and finally, Shian Denovan was the one shining point in a sea of uninteresting dialogue, bad acting and cheap use of "shocking themes" which came off feeling limper than the stuffed cat that was thrown out the window.
