From KTVT Channel 11 in Fort Worth/Dallas, TX, here's the 9 O'Clock Movie presentation of "The Cat Creature" (a TV movie originally broadcast on the ABC Network on December 11th 1973), starring Meredith Baxter, David Hedison and Gale Sondergaard; followed by late news and sign-off.
Note: It appears that the "9 O'Clock Movie" was actually a double feature, who's second movie started way past 9:00pm, making the umbrella movie title kind of confusing, but nonetheless it is what it is.
Includes:
