What he gets instead is her shoving a spoon through his eye. Now with one eye, Arthur turns into a serial killer who goes around murdering women and, you guessed it, cuts their eyes out.<\/p>\n<p>THE HEADLESS EYES comes from writer-director Kent Bateman who is probably best remembered for being the father of Jason and Justine Bateman. This film got a somewhat big cult following back in the VHS days but in all honesty there&#8217;s really not much here to enjoy. If you enjoy extremely low-budget and bad movies from the drive-in era then you might want to check this out but be ready to be bored out of your mind.<\/p>\n<p>The film&#8217;s biggest problem is that it seems there wasn&#8217;t a real filmmaker behind the camera. I&#8217;m not sure what Bateman&#8217;s story was but it seems as if he was just trying to make some cash by making a violent horror movie. Sadly the entire thing is very poorly directed and the pacing is just downright awful. The film clocks in at just 78-minutes but it really feels as if it&#8217;s twice as long. The characters are all extremely boring. Not for a second are you interested in anything going on. Not to mention that the blood effects aren&#8217;t all that impressive.<\/p>\n<div class=\"syndication-links\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arthur (Bo Brundin) is a struggling artist who is desperate for rent money so he breaks into a woman&#8217;s home to try and get some quick cash.
