The Shadow of the Cat*     
(GB 1961)
Universal-International/BHP. 79m. bw

An old lady is murdered for her inheritance, but is witnessed by her pet cat, who takes revenge on the would-be inheritors. Curious but characteristic Hammer thriller under another name: the plot developments are obviously enough stated, but also well conveyed in style and mood.
