Eye of the Devil - trailer
After hapless pianist and ex-con John Elman is framed for murder, he is resurrected by a scientist after his execution. Wonder why it isn´t well known and why it wasn´t a hit when it first came out. Set in Bellenac, a large estate in France that relies on its extensive vineyards, director J. Lee Thompson’s film is steeped in old European history. The black & white photography is most evocative and was a wise choice to set the proper tone for the piece. A French winegrower (David Niven) returns to Bordeaux with his wife (Deborah Kerr) and family to face ritual sacrifice for another bad year. Verified reviews are considered more trustworthy by fellow moviegoers. Een uitstekende rolbezetting in deze vreemde, wat onderkoelde thriller die speelt in Frankrijk.

FEATURING: Sharon Tate, Donald Pleasance, David Niven, David Hemmings, and Flora Robson. David Hemmings has little to do but stare into the distance and give off an unpleasant vibe which he does well while being disturbing in his beauty. Skip to main content.sg. Movie Stars.
