Cat People
Available now
Jacques Tourneur’s stylish 1942 horror film about a New York City–based Serbian fashion designer (Simone Simon, above) who thinks she may be turning into a cat in heat still scares.

There’s this scene involving a lone woman swimmer, a pool and a panther…and let’s just say, once you see it, you’ll never want to dive into water again.
