Eyes Without a Face

At his secluded chateau in the French countryside, a brilliant, obsessive doctor attempts a radical plastic surgery to restore the beauty of his daughter’s disfigured face—at a horrifying price. Eyes Without a Face, directed by the French visionary Georges Franju, is rare in horror cinema for its odd mixture of the ghastly and the lyrical, and it has been a major influence on the genre in the decades since its release, featuring unforgettable terror, gore, and inexplicable beauty.
