The premise
Three short stories linked by a stray cat that roams from one tale to the next, in this creepy triptych that begins as Dick tries to quit smoking by any means necessary. Next, we meet Johnny, an adulterous man who's forced by his lover's husband onto a building's hazardous ledge. Finally, Amanda is threatened by an evil gnome who throws suspicion on the family cat.
Horror Vault's take
Stephen King's anthology triptych follows a wandering tomcat whose path weaves through three increasingly strange tales of human vice and hidden menace. A desperate man submits to an extreme anti-smoking program with sinister methods, while a cuckolded husband devises a uniquely terrifying punishment for his wife's lover. In the final segment, a little girl is imperiled by a creature only her cat seems willing to believe in. Tonally playful yet genuinely unsettling, the film balances dark humor with moments of real dread.
