When a fractious aristocratic family gathers at an ancestral Scottish castle, a straight razor-wielding murderer is also an unwelcome guest in Seven Deaths in the Cat's Eyes (1973, aka Corringa or La morte negli occhi del gatto), a blood-laced thriller - complete with giallo flourishes, tantalizing sexuality, a pet gorilla and an omnipresent ginger tabby - from genre filmmaker Antonio Margheriti (aka Anthony M. Dawson). Singer/actress Jane Birkin plays the willowy heroine whose arrival foreshadows several unnatural deaths, Hiram Keller is the possibly unhinged lord of the manor with a cursed history, and the ensemble includes schemers with homicidal tendencies, all underscored by the shudder-inducing music of the great Riz Ortolani.

Press Quotes

One of the most interesting films to emerge from Italy's 'Golden Age' of horror production. A giallo both rich with gothic excess and antagonism between scientific reality and superstition.

     —Alex Morris, Diabolique

Brilliantly kitsch and stylish at the same time. Effectively spooky.

     —Hattie Mitchell, Sistersgrimhorror.com

In finishing there’s no doubt this new Twilight Time blu ray offers us up a great presentation of this 1970’s film.

     —Musique Machine

A deliberately paced whodunnit / giallo gothic thriller, Seven Deaths in the Cat’s Eye loses a little momentum as it goes along, but it’s a comfortable set-in-one-location murder mystery with some style.

     —David J. Moore, The Movie Elite
