Reception
Hal Erickson from New York Times gave the film a negative review, calling the film "stylish but pedestrian". Allmovie also gave the film a negative review, complimenting the film's action sequences but criticized the film's sluggish plot, lack of atmosphere and suspense; writing "This anemic period potboiler from Poverty Row studio Republic Pictures cribs most of its sluggish plot from the far superior Werewolf of London, but has none of that film's drive, atmosphere, or suspense". Brett Gallman from Oh, the Horror! gave the film a more positive review, writing, "The Catman of Paris is derivative but fine, possessing a really intriguing central concept that’s done little justice on a Poverty Row budget".
