Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Rainey Dawn Don't expect to see cat people or people turning to a cat then killing others because it's not really like that. This one tries to be more of a sci-fi film noir rather than a sci-fi horror.The idea behind the film is good, there are some alright scenes but not what one would expect from a "horror" film like this. It does get suspenseful at times however. And the ending was a huge let down, not at all what audiences that would watch this type of film would care to see.Onslow Stevens made this film better than what it really is with his presence. He is fun to watch in horror films usually.Overall it's a let down film that has a few good moments within it.3.5/10

kapelusznik18 ****SPOILERS**** Heavily influenced by the Val Lawton horror classics of the 1940's "Cat People" and "I Walked with a Zombie" the film "The Creeper" has to do with it's title character a black cat with a white front left paw that seems to terrify Dr. Lester Cavigny's, Ralph Morgan, daughter Nora, Janis Wilson, every time it crosses her path. This stems from her experience back in the Caribbean where her father and his partner Dr. Borden,Oslow Stevens, were experimenting with stray cats. They were using the cats's to produce a serum that would illuminate human organs while being operated on. It's when Dr. Cavingy got second thoughts in completing the project that strange things started to happen to him and everyone involved in it.The cat "The Creeper" whom Nora was creep-ed out about seems to have supernatural powers in causing a number of deaths, with the help of his fellow felines, of those working for Dr. Borden who decided to drop out of his experiments. It was Dr. Bordon's co worker the tall dark and handsome Dr. John Read, John Baragrey, whom Nora was totally nuts about who smelled a rat in all this, Dr. Borden's experiments, and it wasn't the rats that he was experimenting with in the laboratory.***SPOILERS*** Were shown the killer being a giant cat, probably a lion tiger or leopard, in that he's shown, Val Lawton shadow style, only in shadow when he or it murders his victims. It's only at the very end that we see that it was the film's meager budget that only had enough money for its make-up department to depict the killer's hand or paw not his entire body that was totally human. With Nora about to be croaked or killed by the psycho killer it was handsome Dr. John Read whom Nora accidentally shot and thought that she killed who suddenly came to life gun in hand and ended up rescuing her from the "killer cat".

snicewanger The Creeper is a 1948 "B" film produced by Bernard Small's Reliance Pictures. Its an entertaining little chiller clocking in at a brisk 64 minutes, with a cast of generally familiar faces such as Onslow Stevens, Ralph Morgan, Eduardo Ciannelli, and June Vincent.Romantic lead John Baragrey would go on to have a successful career as a character actor in television. The female lead was eighteen year old Janis Wilson, who as a juvenile actress had featured roles in Now Voyager, Watch on the Rhine, and the Strange Love of Martha Ivers, among other films and seemed to be building a solid acting resume for herself. The Creeper would be her last film role,however, and she would retire from the screen to take up marriage and teaching music. Director Jean Yarbrough had a reputation for dependability and getting a film out on time and under budget. Ben Pivar was the executive producer. He was in charge of Universal Studios Horror Unit during the war on could do this kind of film in his sleep. The horror cycle had slowed down considerably since the end of the war but there was still a market for Saturday matinée scary pictures at the local neighborhood Bijou and the Creeper was made to fill that market. It helped sell a bunch of popcorn The story concerns a monster who preys on a group of scientists and researchers whom themselves are trying to develop a mysterious serum that is derived from the body fluids of cats. One of the researchers tries to put a halt to the project for ethical concerns and is brutally murdered. After that other researchers are being killed by what evidence suggests is a huge cat like creature. The daughter of one of the murdered scientists acted as secretary to the project and holds the notes that are needed to continue the project but will not give them up. A young scientist from a next door lab has fallen for her and he is aware of the events taking place. He tries to aide and protect her at the risk of his own life. At the climax of the film the identity of the murderous monster is revealed and it is destroyed. Of course the young couple appear to move on to become the Cleaver family. The Creeper was filmed by Edward Coleman. Coleman and Yarbrough used The "Cat People approach to shooting the Creeper with shadows and dim lighting to cover the cheap sets and minimal special effects This technique works and gives the film a dark and brooding atmosphere. That veteran actors know the rote and do what they can with a weak script and sometimes confusing plot line. What does not work is Janis Wilson's performance. She is , quite frankly, terrible. Without Bette Davis or Barbara Stanwyck around to coach her she chews the scenery and emotes like a high school Juliet. If the Creeper had been a longer picture she would have shot the whole thing down. It's no wonder she decided to get out of the business.As I said, The Creeper is entertaining and won't cause emotional damage to the more sensitive members of your viewing audience, however, if your are in The Ginger Snaps or Dog Solders school of were-animal appreciation, The Creeper isn't gonna do it for you. Saying that . however, for the average old horror flick fan there are a lot worse ways to spend an hour.

The Creeper The Creeper is The Best Old Horror Movie that I can Think of. It is Perfect. I even Believe it Inspired Classics such as "The Fly". Of Course, the Movie is Rather Old and the Special Effects are not Something to brag about. But, All in All we Have a Classic Horror Movie which I Think should be More Famous than it is. 10 out of 10. Also Recommended: Return of the Fly.
