Ferocious Felines

Join us -- IN PERSON -- for a pot luck and two movies about cats presenting challenging behaviors!

Strays
1991 TV movie / 1 hr 23 min / color
"A troubled family moves to an isolated house, and finds and adopts a couple of cats already in residence. These are not the only occupants however..."-- IMDb
The cat actors were motivated by clickers, toys or food rewards. Monty's vicious hisses were instigated by the use of a toy fake cat. In the scenes where the cats were roughly handled or involved in direct combat with the actors, fake or mechanical cats were utilized, created by Jim and Debra Boulden.

Monty also played the demonic cat, Church, in Pet Sematary. The white Chinchilla Persian cat, S.H. III, was already a household face, thanks to her popular "Fancy Feast" tv commercials. She also appeared in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, Scrooged and The Jerk.

Roar
1981 / 1 hr 35 min / color
"A naturalist living with big cats in East Africa expects a visit by his family of four from Chicago. A mix-up leaves him searching for his family, who have been left in the clutches of wild lions."-- IMDb
The movie is not considered a horror movie. However, the making of it has been called a horror because the production was plagued by bushfires, floods, animal attacks, crew resignations, rain, disease, and foreclosure. Most of the lion attacks were real, and usually resulted in actual injury to the cast and crew.
