This thriller about a plot to kill a sick woman and stop her leaving everything to her many cats is watchable enough but you do get a bit fed-up of trying to work out who's double-crossing who. The debt to Hitchcock is obvious but he'd have made sure the script was a lot tighter.
Wylie ( Michael Sarazzin ) is a bum living off his looks while his less charismatic brother Luke ( Tim Henry ) looks after sick Aunt Danny ( Eleanor Parker ). Danny's beautician, Kassia, looks up Wylie with a scheme to get her Fortune but Wylie's chronic fear of cats becomes something of an obstacle.
