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.

THE KILLER EYE is another hopeless production from director David DeCoteau, this time working for Charlie Band's Full Moon Pictures. As is usual for this zero-budget genre, the setting is a generic warehouse where a random British mad doctor accidentally creates a massive prowling killer eye with murder in mind. Given DeCoteau's efforts elsewhere in film, it's no surprise to find this movie obsessed with sex and nudity, with lots of padding involving a couple of annoying stoners hanging around on their bed in their boxer shorts. The special effects are pathetic and the film is nothing more than a test of patience.

Okay, I thought that this would be a more fun watch than it was, because the Red Letter Media guys had a go at it on Best of the Worst.

An Opthomologist creates a machine that summons an eye monster from the Eighth Dimensions, which proceeds to try to have sex with all the characters in the movie... and that's actually the plot. I am not sure if they were trying to be a comedy or a horror movie, but they failed at both.

Richard Chasen? More like David DeCoteau, who goes all Bruno Mattei recycles the Linnea Quigley shower scene of Creepazoids in the laziest way ever: it's playing on the TV in a scene.

But hey, you know, why would I complain about a Linnea Quigley shower scene?

Dr. Jordan Grady is hiring male prostitutes to take special eyedrops so that they can see into the eighth dimension, which is totally a fetish I guess, all while his wife sneaks across the street to have a little aardvark sandwich with the neighbors. One of the creatures from the eighth dimension murders one of the rent boys and his eyeball grows horrifically large and starts to assault women, remembering that it is in a Full Moon movie after all.

I mean, how many movies are there where a giant eyeball impregnates women? Maybe its sequel Killer Eye: Halloween Haunt?

This also shows up as "Terror of Vision" in the Horrific anthology.
