There's a giant eyeball running around and pre-nating women and nobody cares but me! All that in a hole I know right here on... What show is this again? Oh yeah! Wait a minute I hear something! Everybody welcome back to another episode of Doctor Movie where we are talking about movies while driving down the road. We watch them so you don't have to. Got to say another unusual one for you. We are talking about from 1999, you know that year was known for such great movies.
And it happens to bring you the Harus-Lash Sci-Fi Classic. I'm kidding of course. Classic! The Killer Eye! That's right. Yeah, it got a 2.8 out of 10 on IMDB and I really can't disagree with that. I mean there's some fun to be had with this but at the same time it's like, okay, is this thing still going? Here we go. Here's a synopsis for us. An ophthalmologist and the wittily unleashes a deadly creature from another dimension in the form of a giant eye. There you go.
Directed by David DeCocatou. What else did he give us? I'm not sure if he directed these but the movie is under his list is Siroydi Babes in the Slambal Bolorama. I believe it was Creepozoids. We're the puppet master movies, puppet master 3. Okay, so a bunch of lowbrow, some full moon productions. Okay, I'll give you that. Yeah, director of puppet master 3 is what pops up when you first bring up his name so. Okay. There is a sequel to this movie called Killer Eye Halloween Hunt.
I don't know who will be jagging that one out. I don't really see a, okay hero, wide watch. It's dangerous, frightful and horrific. I don't think we watched the same movie. To be honest. Here we go. This is more like a such a ridiculous fun concept, perfect fodder for a cheesy, sapphire flick directed by David Cocatou too. That's hard to say. Cocatou as well. You know what it's throwing that one in there instead of two. You know, just to keep it a little less like you got a speech impediment.
As far as a cast, I don't know any of these people. Let's just see what happens. Nanit Bianchi. Hey, she's known for the killer eye and the making of the killer eye. So yeah. Jonathan Norman, who is our scientist in the movie, is known for nothing else. Jacqueline Lavelle, who's kind of the hoddy of the movie, was in head of the family. I knew I knew her for something. I couldn't place it while watching it. So she was in head of the family, which I did on this show. That's pretty much it.
She was in hideous as well, which did I do hideous? I can't remember. If not, I'm sure it's on the list. Also for the killer eye. Yeah, that makes sense to me now, because I kept saying, and I know where for something. She plays Rita. And there's, this is the need quickly out there, but I don't remember seeing her. There's not a big cast of this. Anywho, we'll get on with it. Yeah, sidest, down in his basement. He has a man, a guy, a guy, a guy, and he can do an experiment on him.
He puts some drops in his eyes. And gets him to look into a telescope, which is supposed to be some kind of machine that helps you see into the another dimension. But it's let's face it, folks. They put a laser light on top of a telescope. That's what it is. And something goes horribly wrong. And dude's eye pops out of his head out of his house. Out of his head, I guess it is the house of the eye. And for some reason, it grows abnormally large.
After looking through the telescope, his eye freaks out. And supposedly it's a creature from another dimension. And it's a big giant eye. I mean, like, you know, it's as big a round as a disco ball at Studio 54. I mean, it's a good size eye, right? It stands up right. It's as tall as a normal person. While this eyeball is coming into fruition, the scientist has had an argument with his girlfriend or wife, who is paying the bills, who's also a hottie, who just wants attention.
She just wants to get naked and have some fun. And he's like, I'm a scientist. Maybe a time for that crap. And, you know, which is understandable when you're trying to see into another dimension. I guess, you know, worldly pleasures of ours just don't really do it for you anymore. So, you know, she's messing around with two guys that live, I don't know. She's like all these people living in the same house. Or maybe they're just next door to each other.
But she's messing around with these two dudes that live next door. And I had to say, of course, these guys are just, I mean, they're big dumb, jockey idiots. And they're like beefers and butthead, but in beef-cake bodies. I don't know how else to say it. They're idiots. But she goes over there because, you know, she has a favor. And, you know, she's on the bed with one guy, while the other guy is sitting there watching. And they're all still in her underwear. And he seems going for a long time.
It's funny because during this whole thing on the bed, nobody's completely naked. And I thought, okay, so this movie is drawn it back. We're not going to really see any skin in this. No, no, no, totally wrong. Because later on, two different ladies in this movie, you know, they're topless through quite a few scenes. And I'm like, so what's the drawback with this scene with the guy? Because obviously, this is supposed to be the most sexual part of the entire movie.
And, you know, it is really weird. It's really awkward. It's almost like it's going to turn into a little legit porn, but it doesn't. So it's like right there, you're not getting the point of like, how far is this thing going to go? And it doesn't go anywhere. It just sits there spinning its wheels in the mud. It's kind of weird. And very awkward because you got one dude sitting at the chair at the edge of the bed with his socks in his underwear on. And he's like rubbing his midsection.
He's not like touching himself. You know, he's just kind of rubbing his stomach and watching them on the bed and it's just weird. Maybe it's just supposed to be. I don't know. But any who? Why that's going on? This young guy that's the experiment dies. And the eyeball is now popped out of his head and it's full-sized. And while it's scanning around for knowledge, I guess, it sees a poster of a female reproductive system. And I guess it decides, hey, here's what I got to do.
So now he's running around trying to impregnate the ladies of the earth, which is just two in this movie. And you know, you get these long-drunout scenes of naked women up against the wall with a tentacle up between their boobies. And actually, like, they're just, they've been taken to another dimension. Because it's so good, I guess. And the eye is impregnating them, I guess. There you go. That's pretty much the gist of this movie. It doesn't go anywhere. You got characters.
You're like, yeah, I don't really care if they live or die. And at the end, they finally all come together and try to fight the eye. And it's got in. Very low budget. I mean, the eyeball, I think the eyeball looked pretty cool. What they did for the retina, which is like shooting lighten boats all in it, which is literally one of those panels. I don't know if you guys remember these or not, but, oh, stuff's sliding around in my car.
If you went to Spencer's back in the 90s, you would have, you know, you had the plasma balls and you had all these things, right? They had these flat panels that kind of work like a plasma ball. You could fingers on it and these lighten boats would come across it. And they would be in like purple or green or pink. And, you know, I remember seeing some DJs at the time that thought things were cool. And they would have them on their table. And that's what this is.
They went to Spencer's and bought one of these and built a big eyeball and used this round part, you know, plasma ball thing as the retina. So they had lighten boats floating around in it. And it doesn't look bad, really. If anything, the highlight of this movie is the eyeball looks pretty decent, even though you kind of feel like, you know, it's pretty much just a statue that they built. And they had some tentacles that they flop around.
This movie is made just like, and this could be what it's all about. It's made just like an old late 50s sci-fi B movie. Because the creature is obviously not a well built creature. The story moves along just like one of the old movies. In fact, even for the beginning part, you don't see the eyeball. It's kind of a shadow in the distance kind of thing. Besides the sexual part, this feels like the tip of the head to the old 50s, early 60s sci-fi movies.
You know, that we all grew up watching that we know we're not really any good, but we watched them anyways. It's kind of what this is like. And, you know, like I said, by the end of it, you've got all these people trying to team up together to fight the killer eye. It can, it can body jump. So whenever it feels threatened, I guess it can shoot lasers out of its retina, and shoot somebody in the face, and then take over one of their eyes.
I don't know, it's, it doesn't make a lot of sense, but you know, that's kind of what we're giving here. And, you know, so you kind of get a jump around and can't find it, but it's always coming back out because it has to in-breaknate somebody, right? And, you know, so at the end you get all of our people kind of teaming up to fight the eyeball. And then, I'll just leave it there, because you may want to see this, or not, I don't know. It's on Toobie, you know that.
So you can check it out there, and uh, I don't know. See what you think about it. It's very low budget, but you know, it kind of drags. But at the same time, you know, if you like the older style, like I said, 50 styles, sci-fi, bad movies, it kind of works there, you know. It just kind of fits right into that. Uh, I'll give this a shhh, 2 out of 5. Um, wouldn't terrible. Acting was not the greatest.
You can tell they weren't taking themselves serious, which I kind of like that when it's in the right kind of movie. Uh, and that's just kind of what you got here, right? I really don't know what else to say about this one, but like I said, you can check it out for yourselves. Let me know what you think, and uh, as always, if you got recommendations or movies you want me to check out, just let me know. I'll be glad to do them. All right, folks, that's it for this episode. We will check it later!
