Behind Your Eyes

I can only describe this as brilliant, spelt as C R A P... The most entertaining part of it was the father's poetic lines in between it all. This film can only be matched to films such as Eden Lake and Wolf Creek, which in my opinion are brilliant exams of terrible films. The script was predictable throughout, the eventual outcome was foreseeable; it is a film that makes you want to scream at the television because of how ridiculous it is, but yet you don't turn it off because it's somewhat of a fatal fascination. For acting ability, there will certainly be no Oscars. I strongly suspect that a better film could be put together by amateurs. I wouldn't recommend this film at all.

I saw this movie at the LVFF and was glued to the screen as soon as the action kicked, around 8 minutes into the film. Before I knew it, I was puzzle solving and I quickly realized I had never seen a film like this before. There are laughs, a few scares and very strong acting from the majority of the cast. I read the above review and am not quite sure what her deal is but I'll tell you this; it's a freshly unique, well shot and acted thriller that does not take itself too seriously and is not afraid to challenge the status quo. I also had a film in the festival and was not surprised at all that BEHIND YOUR EYES took home the big prize. It looks like a studio movie and was by far the most entertaining of the entire weekend.

I won't say more so you can enjoy the plot twists yourself.

My wife and I saw this movie last night and it is by far one of the worse films we have ever seen. Acting horrible, story line bad, filming bad... DO NOT WASTE 2 HOURS of YOUR LIFE ON THIS FILM...horrible

sucks horrible waste of time do not watch Just really bad. 5 stars is very misleading IMDb... This is NOT a 5 star movie

At times you will asking yourself what the hell is going on. The acting will make you laugh it is so over done. This is supposed to be a horror film.. It's not. I just really don't know how someone invested money on this movie. It makes me want to buy a good digital camera and make my own movie cause I know I could have done better.

Do you get the idea that I hated this movie? LOL

I screen movies for a local film festival, and attend several festivals a year, and I honestly have not seen a worse film. I saw this at the Las Vegas Film Festival. I can't complain about the camera work or scoring, but the acting and dialog were terrible. It was obvious who the villain was immediately just by his actions, so to me there were no plot twists. I felt no empathy with any of the characters because they were so one dimensional. The Mother and Father characters were so over-acted that they became funny. There were people laughing in the audience, and it is NOT a funny movie. It reminded me of The Room - a movie made in all sincerity to be serious, and actually becomes funny because it is done so badly.

I can't agree with the review below that completely and almost intentionally trashes this film. Saw this at the Las Vegas Film Festival this year and had a great time with it. Yes, the killer is certainly foreshadowed, but the film makes you second guess this in and out, which was part of its charm. You think you know what's going on, then again you begin to hesitate, which only keeps your attention and puts your mind into overdrive. The twists and complete character reversals add to the magic in this film which makes you like it more as the film progresses. Very reminiscent of some of those older 70's films like "Open Season."

Great writing, acting, cinematography and production all come together and deliver a fantastic storytelling experience that keeps your eyes glued to the screen. While no film is perfect and all come with their own faults, this one pulls it off "right!" Cast and crew should be very proud of this one.
