Anton Bitel Little White Lies 05/28/2024
this suburban gothic comes with its own fairytale feel, not least because it plays like a reimagining of Georges Franju’s surgical fantasia Eyes Without A Face (1960), updated and inverted. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
One of those movies that enjoyed a brief dalliance with the British authorities during the height of the video nasty period. Go to Full Review

Rob M Feb 22 Richard Basehart must have been hard up for cash for agreeing to be in this. It is funny to hear him yell or even raise his voice. I hear the, "Sayer of the Law!" If tripe was a movie, this is what it would look like. See more Dec 26 A disgusting example of the never-should-have-been-made category. Plot consists of a mad doctor grabbing person after person to pluck their eyes out to use restoring the sight of his blinded daughter (always fails, of course, so try again!), and then jamming these viciously maimed victims together in one cage. If they were vile beings suffering in Hell for horrendous crimes against others this might make some sense, but why inflict such terrible punishment on some people taken at random? There isn't much nastier body horror than pulling someone's eyes right out of their head. It is especially horrifying to me that some viewers claim to have 'enjoyed' this disgusting film.

Just awful, poor Basehart and Gloria Grahame to be reduced to having to appear in schlock like this. Skip it. See more 05/10/2014 A creepy & disturbing 70's mad doctor horror flick--An Eye For An Eye!! See more 05/08/2011 I love it, but there's no getting around the fact that it's horror-sleaze at it's most depressing. Derivative and mean-spirited, it's a movie that features scenes within an in-home jail cell - brimming with against-their-will eye donors who moan in agony(!) Whoa. Character actor Pataki ('Dracula's Dog') directs this stomach-churner that should really only be watched by genre super-fans. See more Read all reviews
