At the encouragement of her manager, a nightclub performer in New Mexico (Kiki Walker) takes a leashed leopard into the club as a publicity gimmick. But her rival, angered by the attempt to upstage, scares the animal and it bolts. In the days that follow, people are mauled and the countryside is combed for the loose creature. But Kiki and her manager begin to wonder if maybe the leopard is not responsible for the killings.

Movie Quote(s):
- Charlie How-Come: You don't get the idea, mister. These cops banging those pans, flashing those lights, they're gonna scare that poor cat of mine. Cats are funny, mister. They don't want to hurt you, but if you scare them they go crazy. These cops, they don't know what they're doing.
-
Teresa Delgado: I'll pay you tomorrow. Manuel - Grocer: Next time you come. Poor don't cheat one another. We're all poor together.
-
Teresa Delgado: Mamacita, let me in! Let me in! Let me in! If you love me, let me in!
-
[first lines] Kiki Walker: It may sound like music to her. I can do better with my teeth in a cold shower.
-
Eloise: Don't take this personally Miss Walker, but it's ironic - I mean, you being a big star and me being a cigarette girl. Kiki Walker: I know, I know. You got the talent and I got the breaks. I heard it in every nightclub.
