Barbara Shelley's excellent in
Cat Girl. I've reviewed it on here but it's impossible to find as 'Cat' and 'Girl' pop up millions of times when i did a search for my review.
Here's what i said about
Catacombs.

This largely forgotten British thriller with supernatural overtones is a little gem. The acting is excellent, especially from Gary Merrill and Georgina Cookson as the husband and wife, although i wasn't that convinced by Jane Merrow as the femme fatale niece.
Whilst the first half introduces characters and gives them motives, the second half ramps up the mystery with the plot taking a turn for the ghostly and the final denouement was something i didn't see coming. |
