Review:
This is a movie within a movie! The movie is the following: A screwed up optometrist orderly gets hypnotized by his mother, then begins to murder women. It's actually a pretty cool little trippy story, but then when you think you know what's going on everything changes. While this is going on the audience members are being murdered for their eyeballs. Could the culprit be the fellow from the movie? It's not really super bloody, but it has it's moments, and it's got enough going on to keep most people satisfied. It's definitely a weird little film, but I can't think of anything like it and it is a lot of fun so I'd definitely recommend this one.
