Movie Review: Two Evil Eyes (1990) October Horror Fest (6/31)

 Well, this was a collaboration of two horror directors - George A Romero & Dario Argento.

The first take was "The Facts int he Case of Mr Valdemar" and the second was "The Black Cat"

In the first take you've got this woman who has a dying husband but before he dies she wants to cash out some money so with the help of a medical officer they hypnotize him and start stealing his stuff. Unfortunately to them he dies in-between stealing and so they must prolong the lie so they can finish the procedure from assets to liquid money.

Alas, not everything goes how they want and the hypnotized - now dead guy keeps being alive, lost forever in another realm. People died and the story ends.

I know, nothing to do with the movie but... my blog!

The second take Black Cat is about a man, a decorated photographer of the macabre who goes a bit further even killing and hurting a black cat taking photos out of him. Meanwhile her wife discovers the book he publishes with those photos (who dumb must he be to photograph his own cat and publishing it) and after some struggle she dies killed by him. To hide all evidence, after all the cat had returned he walled them up and start doing stuff to cover his tracks. The police having some doubts on the disappearance they go his house but uncover nothing but in a turn of events due to a autograph something starts moving within the walls and the police return. He kills both policemen and try to escape the house but the Black Cat had a revenge for him and he dies.

Both stories are cool but really nothing to be proud of. The first one has an interesting concept and the second something more to even worsen the reputation of black cats.

In the second tale there is some nudity but unless you enjoy your dose of necrophilia don't bother - although the first tale there is moment where Adrienne Barbeau his kissing her lover and he puts her hand on her breasts (a bit strange how he did it) but nothing is shown - unfortunately.

She was a sex symbol from the 80's at 40 (for those who don't know)
