Never Get Tired of Watching February 20, 2010
Tiffany Wise (VA)
Great movie. This movie has been a favorite of mine since I was 5 years old, unlike 'Tales from Darkside', 'Cat's Eye' is very good!! The acting is superb & its not predictable ; Keeps you on the edge of your seat. I personally like how Drew Barrymore is in the movie, but not until the very last story that shes a main character.
The acting is great ; James Woods (& the other actor, can't recall name) worked very well together. I give this movie a 6 star out of 5.
 Great show January 22, 2010

 3 Stephen King Tales October 27, 2009

As far as 1980's horror anthologies go "Cat's Eye" is okay, nowhere near as good as "Creepshow", but better than "Tales from the Darkside: The Movie". The film features 3 adaptations of Stephen King tales, two of which come from "The Night Shift" collection loosely connected by a framing story about a stray cat.
1. - Quitters Inc. This is probably my favorite story found in this collection. James Woods wants to quit smoking, turning to Quitters Inc. to help. Unfortunately Quitters Inc. uses some pretty extreme methods to help folks kick the habit. With a large dose of dark humor, and Alan King as the nefarious head of Quitters Inc. you can't help but chuckle through this first entry.
2. - The Ledge. This is another solid entry as Robert Hays is coerced by his lover's husband to walk around the outside of a casino building when caught trying to run away with the man's wife. There are a few tense moments here or there and it's another fun entry.
3. - The General. This is where the film kind of falls apart for me. Drew Barrymore plays a kid suffering from nightmares and the titular stray cat seems to be the only thing that can make the nightmares stop. This is basically King's version of a "Goosebumps" tale, it's strictly for the 13 and under crowd as there are no scares, and the humor found in the earlier entries disappears too.
The good thing about "Cat's Eye" is that it's a good way to introduce your kids to Stephen King's tales, consider it a horror film for family.

I had this movie a long time ago - could only find it on Amazon! Love it!
a highly underrated movie August 26, 2008
J. spragg (Indy, USA)
I`ve introduced friends to this movie, and they like it. Many of them didn`t want to watch it because it was by Stephen King, and were afraid it was scary. I`ve always liked this flick, and give it the five stars it deserves.
