Cat Out of the Bag Alert!  This review contains some spoilers for this film!

Synopsis: Avid movie buff Eric Binford (Dennis Christopher) gets carried away with cosplay and starts killing those who have wronged him.

Purr Blur: After his Aunt’s death, Eric stands in front of a fireplace and burns all of her books on healthy eating. A cat is sitting on the mantel, presumably his Aunt’s cat although they are not seen before or after this.
