Paul Jarrett (Timothy Busfield), his wife Lindsey (Kathleen Quinlan) and their daughter Tessa (played by Heather and Jessica Lilly) have gotten a house for an amazing price — too good to be true — away from the big city and that’s because, yes, it’s filled with stray cats that kill humans. But they’re so cute!
Directed by John McPherson, who directed several TV movies and was the cinematographer of Jaws: The Revenge, and written by former teen idol Shaun Cassidy — whose career second act saw him created some great stuff like American Gothic and Invasion — Strays is a movie about murder-inclined feral cats and yet it’s boring.
How is this possible? Then again, my mom has an army of orange tabby feral cats that live outside her house and far from wanting to kill people, all they want is pets and food.
But if the pets stop…the death begins.
