Plot hole: We learn in the film that Cat People must kill a human in order to return to their human form. However, after becoming a cat at the swimming pool and terrorising Alice, Irena becomes human again without making a kill (the only other person at the closed pool is alive and well at the end of the scene - we know Alice has not imagined the presence of the cat because of her shredded clothes). (01:31:00)

8.7/10.A pretty good horror movie here set appropriately in the big easy.New Orleans is as one of the spookiest cities in America so it's appropriate.Malcolm MacDowell lends an air of dignity to this remake as does Annette O'Toole with grace to boot.Cat People is similar to The Wolfman which I consider as a compliment to the Universal icon.This is a pretty good watch.
