Who doesn't love a good killer animal movie? Nature is scary and unpredictable so it seems like the perfect set up for a good old fashioned horror romp. So I was excited to see 1982's Deadly Eyes...and then i watched it.
Movie# 53 Deadly Eyes 1982
Its a cinematic sin when a film about killer rats takes itself "deadly" serious. Fans hoping for fun 80s camp about hungry rats have to wade through boring subplots of romance and politics to get to any carnage. Now its not that i`m not about a good plot but I was just bored. It also seemed like a film at odds with itself. Like its a horror movie that is ashamed of it so they pad it out with various sub plots that only slow the film down. Its also horribly predictable. I was sorely disappointed with the result. For hardcore fans only but keep your expectations low.
