An early horror classic, this tale of monstrously-repressed female desire has attracted a growing scholarly attention as Queer-coded. The film's central conceit, of a woman who cannot consummate her marriage for fear of an ancient monster emerging, can carry many Queer readings.
Serbian fashion designer Irena Dubrovna and American marine engineer Oliver Reed meet in Central Park, fall in love and marry after a brief courtship; but Irena won’t consummate the union for fear that she will turn into a panther compelled to kill her lover, pursuant to a belief harbored by her home village.

After meeting the devilish Dr. Benway, Bill gets a drug made from a centipede. Upon indulging, he accidentally kills Joan, takes orders from his typewriter-turned-cockroach, ends up in a constantly mutating Mediterranean city and learns that his hip friends have published his work – which he doesn’t remember writing.
