Evil Eyes

About This Movie

Evil Eyes is one of those quiet little gems in the horror genre, often overlooked but interesting in its approach. Mark Atkins weaves a story that blurs the line between fiction and reality. The atmosphere is thick with dread, and the pacing is just right for building tension. It explores themes of guilt and the dangers of obsession, especially in the creative process. The practical effects have their charm, providing a nice contrast to the more CGI-heavy fare of the time. The performances, while not groundbreaking, lend a certain sincerity to the narrative. It's a unique spin on the 'writer haunted by his own story' trope that deserves a second look by collectors who appreciate the subtleties of indie horror.

Released straight to DVD in the US. · Filmed on a modest budget, typical of early 2000s indie horror. · Features practical effects for many of the gruesome scenes. · Runtime just over 80 minutes, keeps it tight and engaging.
