Moviecut—Teenage Catgirls in Heat

Barely budgeted rural schlock about a cat statuette of the goddess Keshra commanding cats, who transform into female human form killing men around the countryside so that her spirit can return to take over the world. One of the feline babes, Cleo(Esmeralda Huffhines, whose actually convincing as a human version of a cat)revolts against her sisterhood when she falls in love with a potential male victim, out-of-towner Ralph(Dave Cox), escaping the city after a bad relationship fizzled. Ralph aligns himself with a weird, bumblingly buffoonish "cat finder", Warren(Gary Graves, completely over-the-top)whose pops was an archaeologist. You just have to see Warren's bizarre equipment and "cat-catching" gear(..including this bizarre "feline signal machine"). Warren's advertising logo is "I'll locate your *." Warren's not exactly the most reliable cat-catcher in the world and Ralph reluctantly joins him on his quest to stop Keshra and her diabolical plans. Plenty of * on display as cats transform(..off camera of course)into naked women who find refuge in an isolated house(..Warren's grandma's house actually;her suicide is what unleashed Keshra's hypnotic power to command the cats around the area). A bulk of the film has Ralph and Cleo "mating" while also following Ralph & Warren's exploits..they are even chased by a cow at one point. The movie looked like it cost about 15 dollars. It's all rather harmless..probably recommended strictly to Troma fans and of that specific audience who used to watch USA cable channel's Up All Night during the 90s. There's actually a scene where the sky is raining cats! Keshra has the ability to control cats to do her will, including leaps to their death if necessary.

This movie is so bad that it's not even funny. As a matter of fact, the movie tries to be funny, which makes it even more worse. I know it's an incredibly cheap movie and you shouldn't expect much from it at all but they could had at least tried to do something either interesting or amusing with its concept. The movie foremost attempts to be a comedy but the humor in this is incredibly lame and it all not in the least falls flat because it has some absolutely horrible actors in it. This seriously is a type of movie that annoys me heavily. Really can't see how anyone could ever watch this and still get some entertainment from it. It's absolutely horrible in about every way thinkable. Really nothing funny is ever happening in this movie but also very little as well. I am not saying that this movie should had taken, for instance, its horror aspects more serious but it could had tried to put something interesting in it, which could had kept the concept and story interesting and going. I now was instead really bored by this movie and was already really fed up with all of it, after about 20 minutes in. And the movie could had easily ended after that point because there simply isn't much good happening in this movie at all which makes anything in it worth watching. One thing that also annoys heavily is the look throughout this movie. I'm not even complaining about its cheap look and formulaic camera-work but more that the movie for most part is supposed to be set at night, while all of the sequences are obviously filmed during the day time. They tried to use a filter, that let the sequences appear as if they were filmed at night but it only gives the movie a bad, blueish look. They probably went; 'yeah don't worry about things getting shot in the day light, we we'll fix it in post-production', without having a clue what they were doing. This movie was almost completely unwatchable for me because of how bad it was, at basically just about every level. 2/10 http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

The main story of this flick is quite simple....a cat figurine houses the spirit of a long-dead queen, ruler of the catgirls. As soon as she gives the command, all the little kittens around town sprout and grow into full-sized human females with insatiable sexual appetites. The girls sell themselves as cats well: they don't talk, just purr, meow, and lick their hands. Of course we have the hero of the story, who's trying to put an end to the sex-crazed madness, and his buddy, who is quite peculiar to say the least. Linnea Quigley makes an appearance, if you blink you're gonna miss her. I think they shot this move primarily in the daytime, because to simulate "night" they slapped a heavy blue filter on the camera. It was so heavy I couldn't see what was going on without squinting. Oh, one more thing....when the catgirls have sex, they like to say "meow" over and over. Just another way for these ladies to sell themselves as "catgirls". Funny stuff. In the end, not good enough to go in my Top 10, but not bad enough to ignore....I give it a C+ and honorable mention.

The plot to this flick, simply put, was hilarious. In a nutshell, its about these cats that turn into girls, and have to sacrifice a male by mating, and then killing him. All the events between the movie are pretty funny and any fan of classic bad horror movies or Troma will love this movie. it gets 5 out of 5 stars on Tony's bad horror movie o meter.

The first half of this movie is dull and plodding, with too little footage of the title creatures and too much footage of an annoying, overacting, unfunny, boozing "cat hunter" who becomes the hero's sidekick. The second half is a bit better, thanks mostly to the beautiful Carrie Vanston, who gives a wonderfully earnest and unembarrassed performance doing things that many other actresses would consider embarrassing (licking, hissing, scratching, rubbing herself against humans, drinking liquids, etc. like a cat). The other "catgirls" do a pretty good job too, and the occasional nudity helps, but overall this is yet another case of the Title Being Better Than The Movie - don't you just hate it when that happens? And I know it's not supposed to be taken seriously, but they still should have come up with a better excuse for the catgirls going so quickly from simply repeating sentences they heard on TV and a tape recorder to speaking perfect English. (*1/2)

Usually you expect a certain level of "quality" from the boys at Troma and I eagerly awaited this film. The first time I fell asleep--which I rarely do even during the worst films. Why was the campy over the top humor? The over acting? The grotesque makeup? The second time I stayed awake until the end--still nothing! The third time I kind of liked it--maybe the boys are geniuses after all!

"Teenage Catgirls In Heat" is a very average Troma release. Like alot of their other films, it is a hit & miss film with many inconsistencies and just isn't able to hold the viewer's interest for the most part. The plot is bizarre as usual, and had much potential. It is about an ancient statue of a cat taken out of its box in suburbia, making all the local cats commit mass suicide and then mutate into naked teenage girls who miow, lick, scratch, hiss and purr, with a mission to seduce and kill men. Meanwhile, a cat hunter and his sidekick stumble across them and want to find out what's going on. The film has its moments, and some very funny scenes. In particular, the date between one of the cat hunters and one of the catgirls. But overall, the comedy is very inconsistent and gets tiresome. Worth checking out if you are a Troma fan, but otherwise there isn't much you'd get out of this.

weird little film here this is really bad yet mildly entertaining in a goofy kind of way the acting is bad script laughable dialog and bad editing now this is never boring but it is not exactly my cup of tea the girls are not all that attractive the characters are actually amiable and fun in a dopey sort of way there is tons of logic lapses in this but i think this is from troma (no shock there) the directing is actually pretty decent showing lots of good color sequences the effects are laughable but if you don't take this seriously you should have some moderate fun i sure did so if you can find this at your local video store by all means pick it up but it is not worth purchasing in my opinion
