One man's past comes back to haunt his family in this low-budget Canadian
horror story.
George Gimble was just five years old in 1947 when his mother abandoned her husband and young daughter, taking
George with her.
George's father and sister drove off into the night to look for them, but died in a freak auto accident. Thirty years later,
George (
Alan Scarfe) is married to
Vivian (
Beverly Murray), an unhappy woman who is recovering from a nervous breakdown, and they have a seven-year-old daughter,
Cathy (
Randi Allen), who keeps to herself.
George has moved his family into the house his parents used to own, and before long
Cathy finds a ragged old doll that she carries with her at all times. The doll carries the ghost of
George's late sister, and as the angry spirit takes control of
Cathy, the child develops demonic powers and uses them to punish her parents and playmates. Shot in Montreal,
Cathy's Curse (aka
Cauchemares) was the first English-language project from French director
Eddy Matalon.
