Not sure what to say about this one, I'd advise you keep walking if you see it in the $1 bin at Wal-Mart. For those that are fans of Riki-Oh, you won't find the same humor and ultra-violence here. I understand that Wisely is a popular character that has been in other movies, watching this The Cat doesn't inspire confidence. I will say the fight between the cat and the dog was mildly amusing. I can only imagine what it was like on set when they were doing that scene, must have been a load of fun. I am all for B-rated classics but this one was just too slow and incoherent. I think the movie was around an hour and a half and it couldn't end soon enough for me.
From the team who made "Ricky-O" comes...well i don't know what this is, to tell you the truth. The closest thing i can relate this film to is "the Hidden"... for cats!! If that sounds bizarre, that's because it IS. In the right frame of mind (ie. drunk), it's not half bad. The problem is, with the caliber of acting & special effects, it's not half good either.

From the team that brought us the outrageous prison drama STORY OF RICKY comes an equally bizarre science-fiction movie. It isn't ashamed to "borrow" ideas from sources as diverse as CALTIKI, THE TERMINATOR, THE BLOB and THE QUATERMASS EXPERIMENT. The result is certainly lively and - if you're in the right frame of mind - quite entertaining.
The story concerns three visitors from another solar system whose mission on earth is to destroy "the star-killer", an amorphous Lovecraftian creature that absorbs and can re-animate its human victims. The trio is seeking two relics displayed in terrestrial museums. When joined together, the relics create an amplification device for a ray beamed from their home planet. Bathed in the amplified ray, one of the visitors - a black cat called The General - will be powerful enough to vanquish the monster.
The film's main attractions are its comely female cast members and some over-the-top action sequences. These include a junk yard battle between The General and a huge black mastiff that must be seen to be believed. There are also some quite graphic horror scenes, but the poor quality of the make-up effects mutes their impact.
Although it never attains the quality of the films it emulates, THE CAT is sufficiently fast-paced to hold our attention even while we laugh at its absurdities.

Writer and adventurer Wisely gets involved when a cat from outer space wreaks havoc. But the cat and it's human friends, a young girl and an old man, are really on earth to chase a killer from space! This "star killer" possesses people and finally turns itself into a giant slimy monster. Now it's up to Wisely and the strange cat to save earth from mortal danger...
Hong Kong's popular character Wisely returns for another movie adventure. He was played by such popular actors as Yun-Fat Chow in "The Seventh Curse" or Samuel Hui Koon-Kit in "The Legend of the Golden Pearl", however this time it's the turn of Waisee Lee Chi-Hung. It's weirdness everywhere with slimy and gory special effects and a bloody fight between the cat and a dog! One of only very few attempts by the film industry of Hong Kong at science-fiction, this is a must-have for fans of strange movies.

This movie has one of the best plots I've ever witnessed especially since its a low budget film. Incredible character development despite not knowing anyone's name besides Mr. Wang. The peak of the movie is during the fight scene between the dog and cat which puts shame to any marvel movie ever made. The plot is extremely unpredictable which keeps you at the edge of your seat throughout the entire movie. The whole movie is just incredible. A must see for all movie buffs. Special effects are insane for 1991. Just a phenomenal movie I wish the director made more films honestly. Just pure brilliance in a VHS. Loved it.

- TriviaThe sequence in which the titular cat battles a dog took six months of filming and employed seven trained cats. The special effects director who was initially tasked with realising these scenes was fired after just three days due to animal endangerment and was replaced by up-and-coming Japanese effects artist Shinji Higuchi. Because it would have been too costly to demolish the set that had already been prepared, Higuchi was required to pick up the shoot as-is. He worked on the film for one month before having to return to Japan, only completing one scene in this time.
