Description:  The Cat’s Eyed Boy revenges bad guys. Noboru Iguchi’s campy live-action adaptation of Kazuo Umezu’s dark manga from the late 60s about a boy who was the child of a cat spirit named Nekomata, but got rejected by other spirits for looking too much like a human. Abandoned by his real family, Nekome Kozo (Cat-Eyed Boy) has wandered the world of humans for 300 years, unable to gain acceptance even though his saliva has miraculous healing properties. One day the Fujisakis move from Tokyo to a small village, but when they arrive their daughter Mayuka (Miku Ishida) is shunned for the large red birthmark on her cheek. The residents think it’s the work of an evil spirit called Gyorori who once turned all the villagers into hamburger. Nekome Kozo takes it upon himself to use his saliva to heal the birthmark, but eventually falls in love with her for both her beauty and kindness. Soon, something begins attacking pretty young girls again. Could it be Gyorori’s return?
