"Cat People" (1942) a good dose of "noir horror."

I actually like to think of it as "supernatural noir".

Yes, "Cat People". :) I also liked the 1982 remake with Nastassja Kinski.

My favorite Val Lewton is "I Walked with a Zombie" (1943).

Probably my favorite "supernatural noir" is neo-noir - Angel Heart (1987).

Here are my upcoming noir posts:

1. Top neo-noirs.
2. The most overrated classic noirs.
3. Good classic noirs that could have been great if Hollywood hadn't tacked on the last-minute "happy ending".
