    How is the slasher film Eyes of a Stranger?

    Is it a good one to watch? Never heard of it before up until a few days ago

    I don't remember the movie, but I apparently did a review for it several years ago:

    Thanks for posting that review! the movie sounds good and I've read that the DVD that has been released is uncut with all the gore intact, that the film was produced by the company that did Friday the 13th and Tom Savini did in fact do the effects

    It's a really good slasher. One of my favourites.

    I watched this yesterday and I'd give it a 6/10

    Maybe I watched a cut version, but the effects were just pretty meh. If someone could tell me what parts there are in the uncut version, it would help establish which one I watched.

    I thought the story was excellent. Not any annoying characters and pretty plausible for an 80's slasher. I also like the main character Jane as she figures out what's going on throughout the film. The killer was truly sickening and extremely creepy at times. The gore effects were decent for when they were, but I didn't feel that there were too many times they utilized it. For effects, I'd say this is Savini at his, well, not his best. But I know he had other things to be working on in 81, so
