The Uncanny is an anthology movie. Wilbur Gray (Peter Cushing) is an eccentric writer who has written a novel. He’s trying to convince his agent (Ray Milland) to publish his latest, about — cats! He documents his thesis that household cats are intelligent, in control, and murderous when necessary. This serves as the framing device for three horror stories about the murderous cats.
The Uncanny
Emma: For a month or more
I have listened and dreamed,
While the moon has glistened
And a million stars
Have gleamed …
Waiting!
Doctor Dolittle: Waiting?
I Think I Like You [song lyrics]
Emma: How you can stand there
And say what you’re saying,
I just don’t know!
I must admit
The Sahara is one place
I’m praying
We just won’t go!
Emma, I can’t explain what it is that he is
But he is what he is for a very good reason
I can’t explain why he does what he does
But he does what he does cause his heart is pure –
Of that much, I’m sure.
