A TV horror made in 1973, "The Cat Creature" was directed by Curtis Harrington and stars include Meredith Baxter, David Hedison and Gale Sondergaard.
There is a wealthy man who collects ancient Egyptian artefacts, and among them is a sarcophagus that includes a mummy wearing a golden cat medallion. A thief steals the medallion, and takes it to a magical shop to pawn it but the owner is a witch called Hester Black, who refuses to deal with it. Her assistant finds a cat with pale eyes, and a lot of mysterious deaths happen. A creepy mystery supernatural horror.
My rating is 6/10
Fun Facts: Meredith Baxter was wearing green contact lenses and a red wig in order to look more mysterious, since the actress is really blonde with blue eyes. A chunk of twelve minutes was cut out to fit in with the time slot. There is a dwarf woman whose character is a jezebel called Mabel but the actress' name isn't listed in the credits. The Tarot cards used by Hester Black is like the Minor Arcana.
