Quick Hit

The Hypnotic Eye has a clean hook and isolated moments that almost save it, which keeps it well below the line. A decent premise gets left on the table.

Full Take

This one swings hard at horror and only sometimes connects. When the image is sharp and the menace is clean, it lands. Once the mood is set, everything comes down to whether the film can cash in its own setup. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That keeps it stuck at BAD.
