Jimmy Zoole (Steve Guttenberg, also making his directing debut) has been having bad, bad day. Not only has his one-man version of Hamlet (performed with hand puppets) just tanked, his girlfriend has left him, his cat is gravely ill, and his unfinished novel has been stolen. Plus, it's New Year's Eve. So when Jimmy finds Eddie (Lombardo Boyar), a gay burglar, lurking in his apartment, he isn't exactly thrilled. On the verge of a major breakdown, he ties up Eddie and uses him as an outlet for his multitude of frustrations. Eddie, it turns out, has a few of his own, including an ex-wife who won't let him see his child. What follows is a New Year's celebration replete with party hats, rope, and some very, very deep emotional issues. Based on James Kirkwood's cult novel (Kirkwood also won a Pulitzer as the author of A Chorus Line), P.S. Your Cat is Dead was screened at the 2002 Philadelaphia Gay and Lesbian International Film Festival. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

    Guttenberg was a little over-the-top on his acting but it was an interesting movie. To have starred in, directed, help write and produce is taking on a lot so I think he did a good job. I wasn't expecting the ending but then I didn't really know what to expect. I didn't find it disappointing at all. I wouldn't call this a comedy even though I found it in the comedy section. It was more of a dark comedy if anything. Overall I liked it.

    This movie wasn't anything great. I found myself fast forwarding through some of it just to get to the end. I agree that the ending made no sense and the whole "I'm really gay" part just seemed out of place. Eh, see it if you want, but I wouldn't recommend it.

    I kept waiting for something interesting to happen in the movie. The bimbo-esque girlfriend made a name for herself in the Drew Carey show, and looks awful with short hair. The lead actor, although intersting, portrays the ever stereotypical role of the unemployed actor who gets dumped by everyone in his life for not having any success. The ending scene made NO sense to me, as I kept asking myself why on earth they would become friends. One last thing, they were watching the ball drop in NYC (I presume), but if they lived in LA, wouldn't New Year's be 3 hours later for them? I wouldn't recommend this unless you had 2 hours to kill in a mindless state of disconnect from reality.
