Eyes Without A Face (Les Yeux Sans Visage) (1959) |

When a beautiful girl (Edith Scab) is horribly disfigured in a car accident, her brilliant physician father (Pierre Brasseur), the driver of the vehicle, vows to reconstruct her face. Is it out of love for his blemished Christiane? Is it guilt? Or is the diabolical Dr. Genessier making a Frankenstein of his beloved? As the doctor procures donors for his plastic surgery masterplan, Christiane drifts around the gothic family mansion in a surreal white mask, waiting desperately for a compatible visage, but questioning whether she can ultimately stare into the face of evil! Brilliantly directed by Georges Franju (Blood of the Beasts), this ghastly yet poetic tale of macabre madness is the suspense-horror masterpiece that prefigured Psycho and spawned a generation of slasher-shocker films.
