Olhos satânicos

I happened to see the mst3k version of this flick, and at one point in the show,the bots and Joel come on with a skit called "they just didn't care",which showed off some of the many glaring errors of the director(of which there was a plethora,many of which even they failed to mention).but the most glaring error of all is the entire supposition of the plot.A group of aliens possessing interstellar travel come to a planet where the light of it's star is instantly fatal to them.But,they forget to bring any protective equipment,even something as simple as a space suit or sun screen.Also, their "flying saucer" was destroyed with a blowtorch.How did such stupid creatures manage to discover interstellar travel.Next to this idiotic idea the rest of the story is just anticlimax.Who cares that the acting is horrid,the effects deplorable,the plot sequence unfollowable,the comedy unlaughable,the costuming unbelievable,and the movie basically just unwatchable. But, like the bots on mst said they just didn't care. consequently,we don't care either. but if its any consolation,the mst3k version is pretty entertaining.

Two teenagers meet up with scary aliens and when they escape, none of the adults in town believe them. So it's up to the teens to get together to save the Earth--just like in other 50s and 60s sci-fi films like THE BLOB and EARTH VS. THE GIANT SPIDER.

In the last week, I've seen five of Larry Buchanan's films and I've seen a few others over the years. Sadly, while this is a terrible film, it's probably among the very best films he made! In the 1960s, he made almost a dozen remakes of older Roger Corman films and this is one of them. Originally INVASION OF THE SAUCER MEN, this remake is amazingly bland and tame--mostly because it lacks the charm and great looking aliens from the original. The acting is generally surprisingly good for a Buchanan film--most of the actors seem semi-competent and DON'T read their lines from cue cards in a staccato voice. However, the "comic relief" soldiers are pretty dreadful. Plus, the aliens look cheap, the story too close to the original and too little reason exists not to just watch INVASION and be done with it--especially since INVASION is a real cult classic, whereas THE EYE CREATURES is just boring.

"The Eye Creatures" is based on the slightly less ridiculous 1957 movie "Invasion of the Saucer Men," and is less an homage as an exact carbon copy, reproducing basically the same characters, scenes and lines, only worse. The one chance that "Eye Creatures" had at improving over the original involves the monsters and the way they are defeated (not to give anything away) but is squandered with the poor production values present. Eye creatures wearing only the mask of their outfit, or running around is comfortable tennis shoes destroy any possibility of respect for this film. Luckily this movie is short enough to be amusing, without stretching on into grating. Best watched on Mystery Science Theater, if possible.

I confess I love 50's & 60's B flicks. But I think in some ways the ones from the 60's were way more out there in both concept and sheer silliness. Take this movie. The monsters look like bad Halloween costumes falling apart. The goofs are too much to list. It looks like it was filmed in someone's back yard. It seems more effort was used to make the actress' hair stand a foot in the air than the entire monster costume budget. ( I love 60's hair by the way.)But it's funny in a super campy, cutsy way. Unlike most vintage B-flicks which can be boring through out much of the duration. Eye creatures has sort of a Ed Wood-esque level of entertainment. I highly recommend it to someone who loves old campy horror movies. But not to someone who doesn't know how to laugh at a movie such as this one.

By the way this is one of my all time favorite MST300 episodes.

First of all,this is a remake of Invasion of the Saucer Men,but this movie isn't near as good as that one.Why? Lousy script.Bad "special" effects and last,you can SEE that some of the Eye Creatures only have the headpiece on and that's it! Some are wearing black shirt and pants and tennis shoes.Plus,it goes from day to night and back again in one shot! The so-called "night" shots look as though they were filmed in the afternoon.And let's not forget the title either.The original title was The Eye Creatures,but I think when it was re-released,some idiot decided to add "Attack of the" on the front to make it "Attack of the the Eye Creatures"..I've seen this by way of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and believe me,that's the only way to view this.Not unless you like movies that move slowly..Bad? Yes.Fun to watch on a rainy night? Maybe.As bad as "Plan 9"??? You be the judge..Have fun!!
