Review of X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes (1963) by Oliver S — 12 Jul 2007

First heard of this film by way of the Bauhaus song of the same name and had tried to track it down for awhile, after reading others' (Stephen King, etc.) good reviews of it. It's a Corman film -- meaning a b-movie -- and it has its flaws, but overall the concept is well executed, the lead actor is great, and the final scenes are pretty chilling, a notch or two above normal b-movie fare.

The glistening, pitch black eyes of the main character near the end are hard to forget.
