Wil is picking Morel up from daycare.

Or- he was, until he realised that the room wass destroyed.

“Mista Jacobs! Mista Jacobs!” Sally runs up to him. She’s the petite, short, redheaded woman who runs the place.

“I’m so sawry Mista Jacobs- There was- some kinda assassin. He wrecked th’ place an’- We can’ find Morel anywhere.

No.

“‘E told me ta- ta give this ta ya-” She holds out a single, perfect owl feather with a shaky hand, “I’m so sawry Mista Jacobs.”

NO!

“I’m gonna kill them.” He glares at the feather. “I’m gonna kill them all.”

He grabs it and runs back toward Apollo.

Wil pounds on the door of the apartment^3. Someone opens it.

“The Court of Owls haz my son.”

LOST reading list

a list of books read by characters in lost for you to enjoy (or not). this isn't every book referenced in lost. for all that and more, see the "literary works" page on lostpedia, where im getting my info

no, my criteria for this list is that it's been read by a lost character. i'll tell you who (you'll see sawyers name a lot), and i'll add if it's somebody's fave book. this list will not include things like the bible or the qur'an or historical texts, as that while that can technically be recreational reading (it seems to be for ben), i'd rather not

Alice's Adventures In Wonderland by Lewis Carroll (read by Jack)

Are You There God? It's Me Margaret by Judy Blume (read by Sawyer)

A Brief History of Time by Stephan Hawking (read by Ben)

The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky (read by Ben)

Caravan of Dreams by Idries Shah (read by Ben)

Carrie by Stephen King (Read by Juliet, Ben and various other Others. This is Juliet's favourite book)

Every work by Charles Dickens other than Our Mutual Friend (read by Desmond. This is his favourite author)

I encourage you to speculate on the character implications put forth by these reading choices. This can raise such questions as: Jack is a Harry Potter fan? What is Desmond's favourite book by Charles Dickens? Boone can read??

Thank you for your time

Even though The Shadow of the Cat (1961) is never identified on screen as a Hammer Film (B.H.P. Productions is credited), it is most definitely Hammer! All the ingredients are there: it’s filmed at Bray Studios, most of the cast and crew are Hammer regulars, and Hammer handles the money management. The one obvious exception is the presence of Hammer’s standard bright red Kensington Gore (the film is shot in black and white). The presence of the wonderful Barbara Shelley and a menacing André Morell seal the deal.

Much to our dismay, Doc and Chad are absent-with-leave. In their stead, Daphne and Jeff are joined by Bill “Cats ’r’ Us” Mulligan and Michael “The Shadow of the” Zatz. Let the feline shenanigans begin!

At the time of this writing, The Shadow of the Cat (1961) is available on physical media as a Blu-ray formatted disc in Scream Factory’s “Universal Horror Collection: Volume 6” along with The Black Castle (1952), Cult of the Cobra (1955), and The Thing Couldn’t Die (1958).

Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror: The Classic Era records a new episode every two weeks. Next in their very flexible schedule – this one chosen by Daphne – is The Flesh and the Fiends (1960), directed by John Gilling and featuring Peter Cushing, Donald Pleasence, George Rose, and Billie Whitelaw. Ah, yes. Burke and Hare strike again!

“Schatten einer Katze” (“The Shadow of the Cat”) (1961) von John Gilling

Ella Venables (Catherine Lacey) liest zu nächtlicher Stunde in Anwesenheit ihrer getigerten Katze Tabhita das berühmte Gedicht “Der Rabe” von Edgar Allan Poe. Als sei nicht bereits das Poem schaurig genug, wird die alte Dame völlig unvermittelt erschlagen. Bei dem Täter handelt es sich um ihren Diener Andrew (Andrew Crawford), der gemeinsam mit dem Hausmädchen Clara (Freda Jackson) im Auftrag von Ellas Gatten Walter (Andrè Morell) handelt, der seine Gattin kurz zuvor nötigte, ihn als Alleinerben ihres beträchtlichen Vermögens einzusetzen. Der Leichnam der Toten wird auf dem weitläufigen Anwesen vergraben. All dies hat Tabhita genau beobachtet.

Drei Tage später bittet Walter Venables Inspektor Rowles (Alan Wheatley) zu sich, um Ermittlungen im Fall seiner spurlos verschwundenen Gattin anzustellen. Auch der gemeinsam mit Rowles eingetroffene Journalist Michael Latimer (Conrad Phillips) interessiert sich für die geheimnisvolle Angelegenheit.

Walter und Andrew wollen sich ihrer stummen Mitwisserin entledigen und machen Jagd auf die Katze. Dabei wird Andrew heftig gekratzt, und Walter erleidet sogar einen Herzinfarkt, der ihn ans Bett fesselt.

Walter hat Ellas Verwandte zu sich eingeladen: ihre sympathische Lieblingsnichte Beth (Barbara Shelley) sowie Walters verkommener Bruder Edgar (Richard Warner), dessen skrupelloser Sohn Jacob (William Lucas), der wegen seiner kriminellen Machenschaften bereits eine Haftstrafe hinter sich hat sowie Jacobs boshafte Gattin Louise (Vanda Godsell).

Walter weiht seine verhasste Verwandtschaft in ein Geheimnis ein: Ellas erstes und rechtmäßiges Testament befindet sich noch im Haus. Für einen beträchtlichen Anteil am Erbe sollen Jacob, Edgar und Louise es finden und vor allem Tabhita den Garaus machen.

Doch die Katze ist klüger als ihre Jäger und ist entschlossen, den Mord an Ella Venables zu rächen …

John Gilling, dem der klassische Horrorfilm mit “Der Arzt und die Teufel”, “Das schwarze Reptil” und “Nächte des Grauens” exzellente Werke verdankt, inszenierte mit “Schatten einer Katze” einen, vom Sujet her durchaus ungewöhnlichen, sehr stimmungsvollen Film, den man Freunden gepflegten Grusels sehr ans Herz legen kann.
