The Movie: Cat People (1942)
What Is It?: Whether
or not Simone Simon is actually a murderous were-cat or just thinks she’s one
is irrelevant in a movie so atmospheric, eerie, and inventive. The bus and pool scenes get all the attention, but an animated dream sequence is the one that really leaps off the screen.
Why Today?: Today
is Feral Cat Day.
