 Ay, yi, yi! A cheap horror movie that looks a lot like a soft-core porno flick. Like the latter, there is some full nudity and partially obscured sex scenes (during which you only hear the background music). Also like the typical porno, the acting in "The Killer Eye" is abyssmally bad, and the lame script only compounds the problem further. Amazingly enough, the girls never look (not even for a split-second) when the giant eyeball is copulating them with its optic nerves. Up until three-quarters into the movie, the eyeball doesn't even kill anyone, and the results aren't very spectacular when it finally lives up to its name. The special effects are terrible, even for a $400,000-budget movie. The "rainstorm" and the green current from the eyeball look very fake. No doubt about it, "The Killer Eye" is a bad movie. However, it manages to be mildly entertaining in spite of all its flaws. It doesn't take itself seriously, and that Creepy Bill character, who looks a bit like Brad Pitt in "12 Monkeys" and talks almost exactly like Beetlejuice, does a pretty good job for the comic relief. I like how he reacts to the giant eyeball as though it's almost normal, even though he sees it for the first time. "Hey doc, what about that big, son-of-a-b!tch floating eye over there--" Ha! The bottom line: "The Killer Eye" is a bad but watchable B-movie. |
