One night after enjoying The ABCs of Death 2, I was able to
grab a copy of another movie I have been looking forward to. While this one is
not an anthology, it is another independent entry that I believed everyone
should have on his or her watch list. After watching this indie flick, Starry
Eyes, I know that is the case.
Plot/ A hopeful young starlet uncovers the ominous origins
of the Hollywood elite and enters into a deadly agreement in exchange for fame
and fortune.
Indie horror is such a roller coaster. Sometimes you are blown
away, while at other times you cannot wait for a film to end. In this case, I
was drawn in and wanted more. Starry Eyes is an interesting watch that created
a dark and unnerving atmosphere that was impeccable within the realistic
aspects of the storyline. Couple that with some solid performances and some
unexpected blood, guts, and gore and you have a winner. Yes, there were some
predictable and clichéd moments, but that does not matter with this one as the
finely crafted characters and the sadistic graphic horror elements blend in
perfectly. In the end, this was an extremely entertaining trip into the occult rituals
that are rumored to be commonplace with the Hollywood (and world) elites. If
you have not seen it, give it a shot, it must be seen.
