Eyeball (1976)

A late (for the director) Giallo entry from Umbert Lenzi, and, highly watchable as the film is, you get the feeling Lenzi was starting to get bored with the genre, and indeed the genre itself was starting to signs of strain. The dialogue is poor, but given that it is dubbed we have no choice but to wash over that. A vicious killer is going round killing members of a coach tour party and plucking out their eyeballs. With more red herrings than you’re find in a handful of giallos, this one tries hard to be one step ahead of everyone, although the killer is easily guessable as you near the end. Not even close to bad, but you can see all too clearly what it could have been had the director been firing on all cylinders.
