I think maybe they should of reworte it with something a little less werid like the mother going after the cat with a kitchen knife or maybe just a hand gun. I think that would have been a little less silly. or even if they didn't wont to do that they could of had the mother just throw the cat out of the house or sent it away with animal control. They should have at least left the core of the proloug in. Oh well maybe i m wrong i guess thats why i dont write movie scripts shrug

Hmm, based on your description, it sounds terrible (prologue). But it would be nice to see the movie as it was intended. Also, never judge a book by its description??
maybe king will release a DVD with this original opening somewhere on it.
Good times will be had by all. -

Thanks for the information TelevisionJunkie. Though, this still doesn't make sense to me -
The little girl that appears in the shop window is a dead girl wanting to be avengedbut they had the same actress (Drew Barrymore) play a little girl who the cat saves in the final act - so did she die or does she live?
When they first filmed the prologue, did they use a different actress for the window scene? And then when they cut the prologue (the plot of the girl dying), they decided to use the same little girl in both parts of the movie in order to make it more cohesive??
If anybody has any info regarding this it would be appreciated - -

Sorry, but this 'deleted sequence' sounds stupid and not important.
it actually makes the story more ridiculous than anything else.
The way the film stands now, I always got the impression that the girl (Drew) was calling out to the cat to come save her from the troll that she knows will try to 'get her' in the final 'The General' storyshe is somehow, inexplicably (yet cooly!) linked to the kittythus, the final scene, where she whispers 'Hi!' to the cat and he licks her facethey are final united, as if it was meant to be;)
