The slight and unidentifiable pain you'll inevitably experience whilst watching "The Killer Eye" is actually caused by your brains as they try to leave the skull through your nose! The human brain can process a whole lot of bad stuff, but sadly nothing is strong enough to tolerate the movie-repertoire of David DeCoteau, especially not this horrible excuse for a horror film. "The Killer Eye" is probably the biggest load of stupid nonsense ever shot on film. Even more so, it's the type of incoherent amateur-crap that seriously makes you wonder why you haven't directed your very own horror movie yet. Surely everyone, even the smallest baby, can do a better job than DeCoteau? He isn't even interested in making a horror movie, anyway. Exactly like in all his other idiotic efforts ("The Brotherhood", "Prison of the Dead"...), he's just looking for an excuse to surround himself with handsome young guys in tight boxer shorts. DeCocteau's fascination with homo eroticism goes beyond being awry, as he even suggests one character to be a 16-year-old male street prostitute. Honestly dude, just quit misleading horror fans and simply dedicate your life to making 100% pure gay porn movies. Everything about this movie is just plain terrible, even the slightest details like for example the DVD cover image. It shows a gigantic eyeball prowling the streets of a big city, but there isn't a single outdoor sequence in the entire movie! All the miserable events take place inside an apartment building inhabited by seven of the most retarded people in the world. The brilliant yet overly obsessive scientist of the bunch is experimenting with the eyes of homeless boys, because he strongly believes that the human eyeball is a gateway to a completely different dimension. The eighth dimension, to be more specific. Without any type of explanation, the study object's eyeball decides to jump out of its socket, takes on enormous proportions and looks for women to have voyeur sex with. The over-sized peeper doesn't do much killing, though. It merely just hypnotizes its victims with rays and penetrates them with its nerves. The characters are empty-headed and ultra-insufferable imbeciles like you've rarely seen any before. Especially the two boxer short-buddies are terrible. They're supposed to be heterosexual studs, but all they do is fondle each other and sleep in the same bed. Their conversations are limited to repeating the line "Dude, you're so fried" countless times, so that gives you an idea of the script's quality. The last 15 or-so minutes are irredeemably awful and insulting, as it seems like the production suddenly ran out of budget and time. Instead of dying slow and painfully, like I hoped, the characters inexplicably vaporize and I'm still not entirely sure how the giant eyeball got defeated. Doesn't matter, just be glad it's over... Avoid this film, like you would avoid being locked up in an elevator with director David DeCoteau.
... View MoreNot only is the plot of The Killer Eye terrible, the name is even horribly off. Anyone who has already seen this can tell you that this "killer eye" has less interest in killing than in the female reproductive system. The only reason I watched this movie is it was the only thing on during a particularly nasty bout of insomnia. There's not much I can write about the atrocity of this film without revealing the plot (or lack thereof), so I will say, in short, if you're really that hard-pressed for something to watch, an infomercial would be much more enjoyable.
... View MoreI bought this movie cause it was on sale at hollywood video. I must say that this definately is not a horror movie..This is more like a comedy..The eye looked very cheesey..and the effects were not all that great. THe acting was subpar but they did the best with the script they were dealing with. IF you are not looking to watch a serious movie then The Killer Eye is good for 90 minutes of mindless movie watching
... View MoreStrong words for a movie that strongly questioned my sanity. In a nutshell, a mad, British (with a bad accent) scientist is trying to look into the 8th dimension. After experimenting on a wayward kid, one of the inhabitants crosses over into the first three dimensions. It then goes around feeling up both female cast members. After some really terrible scenes involving a blackmail attempt, live-action hentai, and latent homosexuality, we see the principals hunt down the eye.And the ending is, well, predictable.There is no redeeming value to this movie, unless aneurysms are good for you. It isn't even good for MSTing! Stay Away.Interesting side notes: Per Full Moon, there's a making-of documentary afterwards (partly to make up for really short movies) and in that the cast were interviewed. The guy who played the scientist turns out to be really british (wow, that was a shock). Also, this movie was nominated for a slew of Smithee's this year (Most Ludicrous Premise, Best One-Liner, Worst Science, Goofiest Looking Monster, etc).Grade: F
