9 Heroic Cats That Saved The Day In Horror Movies

9. Gostä's Cats - Let The Right One In (2008)

In the "romantic" Swedish horror Let the Right One In, we are introduced to Oskar and Eli, a pair of preteens with a strange bond not easy to understand. You see, Eli looks like a young girl but is a decades-old vampire, while Oskar is an infatuated boy with insecurity issues. Quite the power couple.

In this film, cats come to the rescue when a woman named Virginia is bitten by Eli. She survives the attack and goes to her friend Gostä's apartment in a delirious state. However, Gostä's cats are not amused by the arrival of the unexpected visitor. They attack without relent until Virginia falls down a flight of stairs and is rushed to the local hospital.

A long night ends. Virginia awakens and realizes what has actually happened to her after receiving Eli's bite. Without hesitation, she asks a nurse to open the blinds in her room, letting in a stream of sunlight that burns her to ashes. Ironically, Gostä survives the whole ordeal thanks to his cats, even though he decided to ignore the existence of the vampire girl earlier in the movie.
