Plot Summary:Serbian national Irena Dubrovna, a fashion sketch artist, has recently arrived in New York for work. The first person who she makes a personal connection with there is marine engineer Oliver Reed. The two fall in love and get married despite Irena's reservations, not about Oliver but about herself. She has always felt different than other people, but has never been sure why. She lives close to the zoo, and unlike many of her neighbors is comforted by the sounds of the big cats emanating from the zoo. And although many see it purely as an old wives' tale, she believes the story from her village of ancient residents being driven into witchcraft and evil doing, those who managed to survive by escaping into the mountains. After seeing her emotional pain, Oliver arranges for her to see a psychiatrist to understand why she believes what she does. In therapy, Dr. Judd, the psychiatrist, learns that she also believes, out of that villagers' tale, that she has descended from this evil - women who change into great cats like panthers in passion, anger or jealousy - and that she will turn into a such a dangerous big cat upon being kissed in turn killing her lover and others who have betrayed her. This belief is why she has resisted falling in love before she met Oliver. Learning this information from Irena, Oliver wants to do whatever needed to help her as does Dr. Judd. But Irena's beliefs may be tested when Oliver's friendship with a co-worker named Alice Moore may become more than just friends...
心理惊悚片。路边、泳池、办公室、医生住所，四场戏的光影效果、音效安排、人和豹之间身份的模糊，堪称绝妙。豹死人亡，只在最后一个镜头里才让女主化身为豹，让整部作品没有沦为简单的怪兽片。
【7分】lewton和turner的组合在40s的恐怖真的是乱杀，不仅延续了某些expressionism/horror的传统，女性角色还又展示出某种含混性，东方与西方的含混，善与恶的含混，与僵尸同行也是如此。不过最后杀掉心理医生真的笑到我了，turner是不是不喜欢精神分析。
越到后面越好看，氛围营造得特别好。电影里的猫/猫科动物。
3.5 比43豹人更丰富 82年金斯基的版本可以算是它的延续 也更将故事展开了 泳池一场戏在挺多电影里见过 原来这儿是出处
蕾丝隐喻在哪啊……哪哪都好，就结局不太好啊，小三和奸夫相安无事地走了？可能是时代局限吧
8.3
【电影课件-黑色电影】黑色的猫，黑色的豹，黑衣女人，内心阴影外化，医生代表的唯物主义与女主的信仰唯心主义矛盾冲突在最后一刻变成人豹大战，背影攒动，街道路灯阴影，水池光纹倒影，黑白画面下营造的恐怖氛围也相当成功。
《豹族》剧本对身为恐惧来源的女主角表现出哀伤和同情。异国边缘文化出身的伊莲娜对友情心怀憧憬，却不擅长和他人成为同类，她尝试着先建立亲密关系再经营感情，却完全没准备好承担妻子的责任。降临她身上的以及她所造成的悲剧不涉及坏心肠的人，她只是被难以阐释和抑制的本能给击垮了。伊莲娜在黑暗里独行、没来由的负罪感、对宗教里象征邪恶的黑豹的迷恋、难以信任他人等元素综合起来使她的形象像个在保守环境中生活的女同性恋，订婚时有个向她秘密搭讪语焉不详的猫女，疑似是种暗示。
从影视学生的角度来说，确实在光影上有许多有趣的地方，但从普通观众的角度来说，很无聊。
在意的点是那对男女最后居然没有死…不过光影真的是艺术级别的
8/10。开场场景中伊莲娜正在为一只黑豹画素描，笼内黑豹象征的毁灭欲望与不安的伊莲娜并置，素描中被剑刺穿的豹子，被风吹的落叶覆盖。伊莲娜迷恋动物园中的一只黑豹，而且似乎继承了超自然力量，把自己变成吃人的豹子，当她感受到奥利弗有外遇时，她追踪着情敌，在某个特定时刻，夜晚的街道只有急促的脚步声，传来了黑豹咆哮的声音，结果只是一辆巴士，声音犹如触碰暴力的幻觉。游泳池那场戏，昏暗的灯光、空荡荡的楼梯间和水波照映在墙上的影子让人感到静谧，从空间特性上增强了听感的神秘性，爱丽丝看见黑豹的阴影爬下楼梯后，慌张得跳入水中，四周响起凶猛的咆哮，她眼神惊恐地大声呼救起来。结尾在伊莲娜与心理医生对峙的房间，满是灌丛中豹子的画像和台灯光源构成的环状阴影，爱欲将自我转化为对外界的攻击，她用钥匙打开了豹笼，返归于死亡驱力。

结局没有三杀真是可惜了
第三部雅克特纳
3.5 恐怖氛围
实在不明白依莲娜作为豹人不杀了那对狗男女，然后面对豹子自杀了……还有猫女你是来打酱油的吗？
阁楼上的疯女人，异域背景，被辜负被伤害被丑化，身边那些冠冕堂皇的人一个抛弃一个抢夺一个占有，用帮助之名行偏见之伤，吻变成了诅咒，到底人形怪物可怕还是丑陋的心恐怖。
+ 如何拍“痕迹”
#FIFF#光影设计不错，爱情戏简直了，不知道导演是想表达什么价值观，还是让观众去批判
和特納的很多其他作品一樣，太過普通的本子嚴重拖累大師級別的光影氛圍
蜘蛛女之吻
影子、声音参与、推进叙事。
