“One of the most interesting films to emerge from Italy’s ‘Golden Age’ of horror production. A giallo both rich with gothic excess and antagonism between scientific reality and superstition.”
– Alex Morris, Diabolique
“Brilliantly kitsch and stylish at the same time. Effectively spooky.”
– Hattie Mitchell, Sistersgrimhorror.com
When a fractious aristocratic family gathers at an ancestral Scottish castle, a straight razor-wielding murderer is also an unwelcome guest in Seven Deaths in the Cat’s Eyes (1973, aka Corringa or La morte negli occhi del gatto), a blood-laced thriller – complete with giallo flourishes, tantalizing sexuality, a pet gorilla and an omnipresent ginger tabby – from genre filmmaker Antonio Margheriti (aka Anthony M. Dawson). Singer/actress Jane Birkin plays the willowy heroine whose arrival foreshadows several unnatural deaths, Hiram Keller is the possibly unhinged lord of the manor with a cursed history, and the ensemble includes schemers with homicidal tendencies, all underscored by the shudder-inducing music of the great Riz Ortolani.
