Felice, a sexy-possessed-black magic-worshipping woman who carries around a pet cat from hell!!! She is the evil aunt that comes to New York to visit her niece for deadly reasons and whoever gets in her way, pays a deadly price!!! Find out what this horrifying family legacy is all about! If you like horror flicks such as 'The Guardian'(1990), than you'll love this one. Warning!...you will have a question or two after seeing this flick. Reasons I love this flick! 1. Joanna Pacula does a fantastic job at portraying an evil woman! 2. That wicked-looking cat that looks like it came from hell! 3. The death scenes are great! 4. The movie has a nice pace; never a slow moment! 5. FX work is passable. 6. Joanna Pacula is the sexiest witch I've ever seen haha. 7. It's 80's cheese that happens to be creepy! 8. I Love films that deal with curses. 9. Seen this movie when I was a kid and the escalator scene freaked me out for years! 10. It simply reminds me of other horror flicks I love. Read more",

I have to say that it was just as good and frightening as it was when I was a child. My only complaint with this movie is that it is not on DVD. They don't make horror movies like this anymore. Now everyone is more into violence and gore than a driving plot. If you are a TRUE horror fan, you would definitely want to add this one to your collection. Read more",

Sometimes, as proven by science, sex can kill you(STD, VD, etc.). However, diseases are the least of this family's concerns in the mating category! This film is rated R for nudity, violence, horror, and VERY sexy/steamy scenes. Enjoy! Read more",
