It's Just a Cat



In the latest movie supercut from Slackstory, we see a string of scenes in which tension builds until something jumps out at you, screaming like a banshee! It's just a cat. Never mind that cats can harbor murder in their hearts and can mess you up more than a ghost or gremlin ever will. There's a list of the movies at Slackstory.

The cat trope is a way to add more tension and more scares to a story without having to reveal the actual evil entity too soon. Read more about it at TV Tropes, if you don't mind diving down the TV Tropes wormhole. (via Laughing Squid)
