Title: Sexuality and horror - two of my favorite things
Review: This movie is an elegantly realized story of a woman's fear, love, desperation, and jealousy. And it's about sex! The gender role of women to be chaste and not at all sexual is taken to the extreme - if Irena gets hot and bothered, she'll turn into a ferocious cat and kill her husband. However, jealousy also triggers this transformation, leading the movie's most suspenseful and artistically shot sequences. While I love old horror movies, I know that by today's standards they aren't considered very scary or supsenseful. The pool scene in this movie is one of the most suspenseful and eerie scenes in any movie I have viewed. Very impressive, especially taking into account this was a low-budget flick.
