It's the 4th of October, and tonight's feature is Cat Sick Blues, which is one of my top favorite films from year 2016. It's a psycho killer cat drama, filled with disturbing, bizarre and splatter scenes, with dark, funny, slow motion and nightmarish sequences, plus an amazing soundtrack that makes you feel very 80s, and really goes very well with flow of this extreme feature. If any one of you who are fans of disturbing and extreme horror have not seen this movie, I highly recommend it to you.

He begins dressing up as a cat, and entertaining strangers with his funny and witty cat-like impressions. Finally Ted feels like he can let go of his estranged pet and move on with his life. I won't spoil the ending, but this movie is great for the family and cat lovers alike.
... View MoreFrom what I read on the synopsis and some of the reviews here on IMDb, then I decided to sit down to watch "Cat Sick Blues", because it did seem like it might actually be odd enough to actually be good.However, I was wrong. "Cat Sick Blues" fell far outside of what I consider to be a properly entertaining movie, and it was just way too bizarre and slow paced for my liking. And I can't claim to have found any interest in the storyline or the characters portrayed in the movie.The movie is about a deranged man's urge to kill people and transform himself into a cat in an attempt to bring back his dead cat.Weird! And it wasn't even enjoyable weird, not in any way. There just wasn't anything worthwhile in watching a nerd in a red shirt and a cat mask wearing an oversized strap-on dildo while killing people. It was just a sad excuse of a movie.I made it through just about halfway before I just lost the will to go on. And it was either watch something else or start using my mobile phone, so I opted for watching something else, because not even the dialogue in "Cat Sick Blues" proved to be fun or entertaining.As for the acting in the movie, well I am sure that people were doing adequate jobs, but it just didn't take a hold with me, and I wasn't impressed with what I saw.With no intention of returning to finish "Cat Sick Blues", then I am rating it a mere two out of ten stars, given the fact that it did have some fair enough production value to it.

The protagonist is a lovely female who posts popular cat videos on the internet. She gets in a bit of pickle when she finds love from an unexpected male consort.Absurdly demented and thoroughly gut wrenching--you have to keep telling yourself it's only ketchup it's only ketchup it's only ketchup. Both a novel concept and horrendously dark, I give 10 out of 10 dismembered cats on this one. Only for the horror aficionado and those into dark soul-crushing irony.Bravo, blood-splattered champion, bravo.
