Scary

I am the writer of the novel, that KAT is based upon. I feel the need to speak up for this movie. I do find it to be too far away from the book, but this is a very scary movie anyway. I see it as one of three most scary movies to have been made in Denmark ever. It is by far the best Martin Schmidt-movie up to this date.The music made by Gary Chang is brilliant.

Why haven't I heard anything about this movie?

This has to be one of the best horror films of 2001! Not only is it surprisingly fresh and original at times, it's really scary as well. The story is simple, yet complex and the actors are great! It is also a beautiful film in terms of cinematography and set design. When that white cat steps out of the shadows and we get to see it's mussels move as it is closing in on it's victim, that's pure genius! My interest in Danish horror has risen at least 200%! Keep it up!

AWFUL

I saw Kat yesterday and it was presented by the instructor who told us about the movie and wished us a "unpleasant" experience. He was right - it was unpleasant. It had no story, yet the actors were OK, they used cheap tricks to scare us, some were unwillingly funny as the computer graphics were plainly horrible. The worst movie I have ever seen in a theater.

Everyday Horrors

The blurb called this the story of Maria's fear that "her boyfriend's cheating on her" raising a "psychic connection to a series of bestial killings..." For me, from the very start, it was about owning a cat, about noisy upstairs neighbors, about friends who, as of course they very well ought to, know their weird-seeming relations better than one can oneself. This is a film that uses the mundane to create its horror. So it's much scarier than dreck like the American "Ring."

An excellent touchpoint is "Cat People."

Bad acting, OK EFX

Well, I was quite surprised about Corfixen's bad acting, she has a very monotone voice and acting skills, and I thought she would have made it better. The only highlight of the actors was Soren Pilmark, who is as good as always, and Brygmann who was also quite good.

Quite interesting story and okay chock effects.

But the kinda-gross end was the best part of the entire movie - the rest was pretty dull.

If you like a spooky story about demons with some quite bad acting from the lead roles, but wants some nice horror effects, go see this movie. Otherwise, do not...
