Eyeball
Gatti rossi in un labirinto di vetro
A group of American tourists is traveling through Spain when two of them are murdered by a mysterious serial killer who removes an eyeball from every one of its victims. The tour presses on as the murders continue, with the travelers and the police trying to deduce which one of them is the killer.
Why it matters
A lurid slice of 1970s giallo that blends sun-drenched Spanish locales with grisly, eyeball-extracting murders, delivering pure pulpy suspense and stylized violence.
- Early work of director Umberto Lenzi, a maestro of Euro-slasher cinema mixing mystery and explicit gore
- Features inventive practical effects on the mutilations, a visceral highlight for fans of tactile brutality
- Perfect for viewers who dig vacation-set horror with a creeping paranoia and whodunit structure
- Evokes the era’s obsession with voyeurism and visual fetishism—an unsettling glimpse into 70s genre excess
