Throughout this film, it is THRILLER to a very high degree.
A man is shown taunting his wife's pet cat. He later admits to having caught the cats tail in the door 'by accident'. Later on he is shown photographing the cat in different angles - meaning, physically twisting and scrunching the cat's face into various shapes for photography purposes. Quite disturbing for animal lovers.
A man is shown strangling a black cat with a piece of wire.
NOTE: Quote from film: "The American Human Association has certified that the live animals used in "The Black Cat" suffered no physical or psychological abuse".
