There is also an entire alternative ending to the film, which can be seen here:
Spoilers: it's essentially the exact same, only instead of the dozens of cats Kassia and Wylie are menaced by Tullia on its own. Presumably there was a studio note about how ludicrous this was and they added the other cats to at least TRY and make it seem more threatening

I've not seen it yet, but I've got what I think is a Hammer film called The Gorgon (1964). You don't see her in the trailer, but I've seen a small clip and absolutely had to buy it for the image alone. I got it on Blu-Ray.
