not a bad little thriller, 5 January 2009
6/10
Author: TheatreX from Louisville, KY

"Through Dead Eyes" is part of a two-film set, with "Vampire's Embrace", now out on Cult Camp Video. Of the two films, this is the obvious stand-out.

A wave of killings in a small town seems to be somehow connected to a retired police officer (James Doohan) who retired with a year still to go after a similar wave of killings several years before. Now, a young detective and his partner are on the case, at least, until the partner becomes a victim.

There seems to be some link to a blind psychic that was involved in the previous case, but she claims she no longer has that power & doesn't want to be involved. However, the detective on the case kidnaps her & holds her hostage until she agrees to cooperate. And also falls in love with her.

When it's finally revealed who the killer is, well, that bit is sort of ridiculous, because it's not exactly plausible, but overall, it's not a bad little thriller. Doohan is mostly wasted in his role, proving he's not much of an actor outside of his Star Trek environs...and maybe not much of one within, either. But his screen time is minimal.

6 out of 10.
