The Lotus Cat Food Company has hit major financial trouble and is on the verge of closing, until the owners realize that rather than paying for meat, they can use bodies from the local graveyard to fill their tins. As their latest product hits the shelves, it's revealed to have an unintentional result: every cat that eats it is transformed into a bloodthirsty brute with an unending hunger for human flesh!

"I feel like this is one of those cases where you can judge a book by it's cover, or should I say, Blu-ray. The title and cover says all it needs to say. It's old, low budget horror but if that's your jam then I'd say it's worth a watch."
"A junky cult classic! It’s dumb and cheap, but fun and charming in its own way."
"Uhh. . . It's fine I guess."
"When a band that plays at the same pub as the Birthday Party and the Scientists names themselves after a film, you watch it."
"You have to hand it to productions like this that look like they really stretched $5. If you want to know how Lotus Cat Food Company stays in business (like this film’s production), well, tune in, because what you think’s gonna happen, is gonna happen. Classic VS release!"
"This low budget flick gets the star treatment with this awesome release. The cover only hints at the insanity that awaits any uninitiated viewer."
"Movie: Has some low budget charm, as well as a few flairs. The corpse grinding machine is pretty great. Overall it's fine. A lot of time is spent on a particular business venture where the cash flow just does not add up, and I was not engaged enough to really care. Extras: Nice interview with Ted V. Mikels, and the commentary is interesting. Would have nice to have the trailer though. Packaging: Points for reversible cover."
"It is ok but i wouldn't blind buy it"
"Cheesyy movie about people turning in to cat food that makes cats crazy. It’s like tame Herschell Gordon Lewis film."
"Cat food movie… what else needs to be said? Human meat made into cat food which turns the cats into bloodthirsty brutes. Another nice cat killer movie!"
