The Uncanny - 1977 - 6/10

How about perilous paws? Chilling claws? Or feline fiends? Or tabby terrors?
Anthology series showcases those murderous monsters. Housecats.
An elderly woman changes her will, leaving her profligate nephew scat, the bulk to her cats.
The scheming maid decides to interfere, running afoul of a pack of growling inheritors.
Another story finds hammy horror actor Valentine De’ath (whom everyone calls VD) recently bereft.
Luckily, his new lust interest resembles a young version of his dead wife.
Too bad the cat is such a sourpuss.
Silly movie has fine cast, and a winking sense of humor, but it plods and scenes extend too long.
Then again, how about uncanny tails?
