synopsis
In this routine occult horror film, oddball psychic Mr. Miles (Patrick Magee), who lives in the British countryside, visitor and photographer Jill Travers (Mimsy Farmer), and the local police as well as a Scotland Yard inspector (David Warbeck) are involved in the mystery of several deaths that have occurred recently in Miles' small village. The photographer notices some cat scratches on some of the "accident" victims and begins to suspect that Mr. Miles and his black cat do not enjoy a "normal" owner-pet relationship. Thanks to the inspiration of a mystery story by Edgar Allen Poe, and the gore-meister director Lucio Fulci, this film has its scary moments.
