Review of Cat's Eye (1985) by Joshua L — 25 Apr 2014
A bizarre horror-comedy from Stephen King, Cat's Eye is uneven and poorly crafted. This anthology of tales follows an aversion therapy clinic that uses mafia tactics, a sadistic millionaire who makes an unusual wager, and a child who's being stalked by a troll.
Each segment has a different tone, and the troll story feels especially out of place. Additionally, the through-line connecting the various stories is tenuous and weak. However, the casting is rather interesting, and features James Woods, Robert Hays, and Drew Barrymore.
Yet as bad as the film is (and it is bad), Cat's Eye is mildly entertaining and has its moments.
