I did not expect myself to feel so relieved when I saw the cat turning into a zombie.
Seems like I'm somehow more at ease seeing a dead cat come to life and eating people, rather than seeing a dead cat just being dead.
Gee thanks, illogical brain o' mine!
But well done, great effect to do with an audience wich I don't think I've seen much before, if at all: making people feel creeped out by a needlessly morbid ending, but then turning it around by putting everyone at ease with a suprise twist that's technically worse.
