My Little Eye Details

Awful, cliched rubbish

Don't be fooled by the reality TV setting, 'My Little Eye' is about as basic and predictable a slasher movie as you've seen. Five attractive young people are placed in an isolated house where they will be observed by cameras over the internet. If they last for six months they will all receive $1 million, but if anyone leaves then they'll all receive nothing. Unfortunately there's no similar reward available for viewers who manage to sit through this rubbish without switching off.

The characters proceed to argue, have sex, hear mysterious noises, suspect each other and start being killed in increasingly gruesome ways. Even within the confines of the slasher movie genre, this is pretty pathetic stuff. 'My Little Eye's basic gimmick is the fact that it's entirely shot on the CCTV cameras that surround the house, but this does nothing to further the plot or ignite our interest.

Director Marc Evans never seems entirely surefooted in his handling of the story, and there are a ridiculous amount of plot-holes scattered throughout the script. The characters remain completely interchangeable and it's something of a relief when the amateurish and rushed climax eventually does arrive. It's never as clever as it thinks it is and is basically a nasty-minded, insulting and, worst of all, boring film.

Really no t impressed with the film, thought i was going to be watching a horror and it turned out to be a documentary type film, the idea behind the film was good but the implimentation on the idea was poorly done, the actors did however give good performnces in their roles and the cast was well choosen, i just thouhg that it nlacked something to make it scary or even interesting in some way, NOT a film that i would recommend
