Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring THE CAT WITH HANDS (2001) the Short Horror Film by British Filmmaker, Animator , Director and Writer Robert Morgan who Wrote the Screen Play and Directed THE CAT WITH HANDS. Morgan is also Responsible for Bobby Yeah and Belial’s Dream which is a Personal All fucking Time Favorite of Ours. Both Bobby Yeah AND Belial’s Dream are Posted here So We suggest You check Them Out. Morgan developed a Keen Interest in Film at the tender age of 3 when His Uncle Showed Him the Movie Fiend Without a Face (1958) on a 8mm Projector, and Later sighted Francis Bacon, Edgar Allan Poe, David Lynch, and David Cronenberg as Key Influences.
According to Film Threat Magazine, THE CAT WITH HANDS is “Mandatory Viewing for Anyone who wants to Write a Horror Movie.”, and that’s NOT because of What Morgan does with the fucking Film but Rather He Doesn’t. When it comes to the Blood Soaked Horror Movies with Booming Butchered Body Counts (along with the Birth of the Torture Porn Genre) of Today THE CAT WITH HANDS is rather fucking Tame. That’s fucking just Fine as Morgan’s Key to Unlocking the Horror in the Film is in a Word Subtlety. It’s Not Blood and Guts Fare it’s just Plain fucking Creepy especially with the Combination of Both Live Action and Animated Characters and Their Bizarre Expressions.
PLOT: The Dark and Surreal Film Focuses on an Old Man telling His Young Companion an Old Folk Tale of a Cat Who wants to be Human. As the Tale has it, that Deep in a Most Foul Stone-Walled Well resides a Vile Feline being, which instead of Paws, has Human Hands and it Does Horrible Things (such as Stealing Body Parts from the Unsuspecting Passersby).
It Is What It Is,
