    When I was very young(about 5) I saw this on the telly would have been around 79/80.I can't be sure if it was a film or part of an episode of a tv series and I can just remember the very end of it.Basicly it was set on a yacht and revolved around a small statue that had a curse on it.There was also a black cat on the yacht who I seem to recall was evil or had something to do with the curse.At the very end the yacht catches fire and and the last few shots are one of the cat with the fire in the background then the yacht sinking and the very final shot is the statue sinking slowly to the bottom of the sea with this creepy chanting on the soundtrack.My memory of it is hazy and it's not a lot to go by but it's been bugging me for years to know what it was.

    There was a film in the 70's called The Last of Sheila. I can't remember a cat but it was defo set on a yacht and I think there might have been some sort of fire at the end.

    I honestly don't think it's the one you want but it might be worth checking if only to rule it out.

    Deffo wasent the one about the killer cats as that seems to have come out in the 80s which would be too recent.The other one sounds promising but it has Bette Midler on the closing credits as opposed to spooky chanting and theres no mention of a statue.
