Cats were considered sacred to the Egypians and were put in tombs to ward of evil spirits.

They explained it in the notebook they read from the dead body.

catlady vs. dog, which side do you think the cats will be on?

reply

Actually Anubis is the a jackal an Egyptian wolf. In Egyptian folklore he had a black head.

reply

it wasn't explained in the notebook, or at all i don't think...but when they passed through the skull wall into the burial chamber where Anubis "lived" the first thing they saw was dead cats all over the ground. So Anubis had been killing the cats and they were enemies i guess.

reply

Me and my sister came up with our theory after putting the movie together. The cats protected her because she was probably the pure soul and if Anubis ate her heart he would be sent free like she said when reading that journal/ heiroglyphs. The cats We feel like were their to keep Anubis trapped from escaping so they attacked him to let her get away which clearly didn't stop him from getting to her. They were like the guardians of the Pyramid and Anubis has been waiting to get a pure soul to get free.

reply

If we were talking about pure of heart, wouldn't the child at the end serve the purpose then of Anubis finally being able to go the heavens.

The way I see it the child wasn't stealing at all, he was too innocent and young to know what was happening thus before helping the girl out, he went to the camera unintentionally. Anyways yeah the movie had potential but really didn't deliver at the end.

reply

The child was definitely stealing the camera. I think even a 5 year old would be able to tell she was in distress. The kid looked about 10.

reply

The child was shown earlier in the movie, i think sitting near the fire?

reply

Very Good Movie And Yes I Agree With You And Your Sister's Theory On The Cats ....

reply

It was basically a stupid plot device, the film was full of them.

What should of happened was when he had her tied up he just plucked out her heart like everyone else. Instead he had to take his time so she could escape, then just happen to get pounced on by cats that somehow managed to delay him enough for her to escape again then even with a monster chasing her she was so exhausted from climbing that ladder she had to keel over a few feet from freedom....

reply

What should "of" happened


And here comes another one. No one knows how to speak English anymore ? It's what should HAVE !

reply

Or "should've", which is where the "of" comes from.

reply

Nope. Still wrong. Try again.

reply

Like Ron Weasley said: How thick can you get?!?!?

shouldha've

There's no "v" in "of". FFS!!

I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!

reply

"Of" comes from the pronunciation. It is people who cannot spell, but who spells phonetically. Would've sounds like "would of", when it is pronounced.

reply

she managed to cut him up with the blade so the cats go crazy with that like blood in the water for sharks... when the other woman is in the pit all cut up they also go there to snack..

reply

That was my take-away, as well...

reply

Because the writers had no idea how else to let her escape.
