Cat People (1942)

Cat People (1942)
Dir: Jacques Tourneur

A woman believes she is cursed to turn into a panther and kill whenever she becomes emotionally aroused.
A classic chiller that cleverly relies on suggestion and ambiguity to unsettle its audience. It's well directed and despite a short running time doesn't feel rushed. The film also has two superb sequences that show it is possible to scare using only shadows and light.
