Product description

It was the team-up of the century in 1990 when the Italian auteur of excess Dario Argento made this double-feature compendium creeper with George Romero! The result brings together the very best of the United States independent sector with the kingpin of things giallo - giving us the much-loved splatter shocker TWO EVIL EYES! The latest in 88 Films Italian line, Romero's outstanding opening salvo offers us an adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar, highlighting the sublime Scream Queen Adrienne Barbeau (THE FOG/ SWAMP THING) as a scheming widow seeking to exploit the estate of her terminally ill husband. Little does she know, however, that her husband is already ahead of the curve... and planning a little ghoulish vengeance of his own! For Dario Argento's Poe adaptation The Black Cat, Harvey Keitel essays an eccentric photographer obsessed with death and dismay... although eventually his livelihood encourages him to embark on the ultimate crime. However, there is a super-sick sting in the tale that will leave the hapless camera-man literally hollowed-out from head to toe! We dare you to endure the gruesome and gruelling special effects of Tom Savini and the provocative, spine-tingling soundtrack of Pino Donaggio in this awe-inspiring frightener that is finally available to UK horror buffs in hair-raising HD...!!!

Okay so not really, It's an anthology movie comprising of two stories a 55 minute Geaorge A. Romero story that involves hypnosis of a patient who is at death's door and the second runs for about 75 mins and is a Dario Argento combination of a few Poe stories starring Harvey Keitel and it is amazing, don't get me wrong both stories are great but i adored the second story.The Package as usual from 88 Films is terrific with a decent booklet, art cards and slip cover on the initial first run.
Thank you for your feedback

    Two Evil Eyes (1990) aka Due occhi diabolici is a horror anthology, or portmanteau, based on two tales by Edgar Allan Poe. The adaptations are directed by horror maestros Dario Argento and George A Romero. Tom Savini (Creepshow) provides the special effects and also has a cameo in The Black Cat segment.

    Tale One:
    The Facts in the Case of M Valdemar
    Jessica Valdemar (Adrienne Barbeau) is having an affair with psychiatrist Dr Robert Hoffman (Ramy Zada), whilst her husband is dying of a terminal illness. Ernest Valdemar (Bingo O'Malley) is in the process of handing his estate over to his wife, despite protestations by his legal representative Steven Pike (E G Marshall). The two lovers have been using hypnosis to get what they want and Pike is aware that something is wrong. He warns Ernest that should he die in the next three weeks his wife will be investigated. Ernest dies under hypnosis and is subsequently stuck between two worlds. Ernest then seeks revenge and to also be released from limbo, whilst the lovers try to permanently end his life. The police (Tom Atkins) also take an interest in the situation. This is a traditional revenge story from the master of gothic fiction.

    Tale Two:
    The Black Cat
    One of Poe's most popular tales sees Roderick Usher (Harvey Keitel) , a crime scene photographer who appreciates real life art, in a building surrounded by the body parts of various corpses; his job is to take photographs in a crime-ridden section of Pittsburgh for Detective Legrand (John Amos). He works on documenting the dead for Legrand in his basement darkroom. One day his work is disturbed by the arrival of a mysterious black cat taken in by his girlfriend Annabel (Madeleine Potter). Usher and the cat develop a hatred for each other and Usher inevitably kills the cat - but the cat will not die easily, and it can reveal a secret about Usher that could destroy his life.

    Both stories are handled well, with Argento's being the slightly better of the two. The production values are very good and there is a good cast of actors in both tales. The DVD release is a standard one with no extras worth mentioning unless you purchase the Region 2 PAL DVD by Arrow which, as with all their releases, is fully loaded.

    *Casting Connections: Romero uses some of his regulars here: Tom Atkins (Creepshow, Bruiser), Adrienne Barbeau (Creepshow), Tom Savini (Creepshow, Creepshow 2, Dawn of the Dead, Diary of the Dead, Knightriders, Land of the Dead, Martin, Monkey Shines).

    Weird but highly disappointing.
    Not anything like the Gore soaked delights usually offered by Argento.
    Not bad, but not particularly good either.

    Best suited to Poe/Argento/Romero purists
    Originally conceived as a quartet of Edgar Allen Poe adaptations, by George A. Romero, Dario Argento, John Carpenter and Wes Craven, the previous due were to be the only contributors to the double bill film Two Evil Eyes. Modernising (and in Argento's case merging a variety of Poe's themes) two stories, 'The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar' and 'The Black Cat', Romero and Argento tackle similar themes about guilt and morality. In the first story, Romero's, Jessica (Adrienne Barbeau) is the wife of an older, rich, dying man, as she attempts to gain all of his wealth before his demise. Using her doctor/lover, Dr Hoffman (Ramy Zada), they hypnotise him, so they are able to embezzle the cash. However, when Valdemar dies, and they put him into a freezer, his disembodied voice can still be heard, a spirit trapped between two worlds.

    In Argento's piece, Harvey Keitel plays a crime scene photographer, Rod Usher, who has also published a book of questionable ethics, involving (along with photos of mutilations of women from real-life crime scenes) some apparent shots of a black cat being tortured, a cat owned by his live-in girlfriend, Annabel (Madeleine Potter). After an argument, he kills her and conceals her body behind a dry wall fronted with a bookshelf. In dreams and in life, Rod is tortured by the presence of the black cat, who may possess spiritual powers. Fundamental to both of these narratives is that element of overwhelming guilt. Both characters are tormented, whether psychologically or supernaturally. This is a theme that permeates a lot of Poe's horror writing, in one of his most famous short stories, 'The Tell-tale Heart', where the protagonist receives a visit from the police, and the trap door where a dead body is concealed, pulsates as the narrator's anguish and paranoia envelops him.

    'The Black Cat' is the better of the two short films. Romero's feels at times like a macabre daytime soap opera. The Dallas iconography of dazzlingly bright-coloured decor, and immense shoulder pads, the garish face paint of the ruling classes. That said, as with many of Romero's films, he infuses the film with social commentary, coming out of the 1980's processing of our consumerist indulgence: The ethic of greed. Argento makes a more stylish attempt, which has heightened paranoia, one which is elevated largely due to a series of suspicious characters. Tom Savini's by now obligatory horror effects are also superior in the latter tale of terror. But, as with all horror films of the early 1990's, this (and they) loses something as they are consumed by television aesthetics, perhaps a project that would have benefited from being made ten years previously. The overall film experience is dampened by these production values, and the atmosphere is stilted, with little, or no sense of terror or impending horror. The definitive film adaptations of Edgar Allen Poe are still those beautiful Technicolor Roger Corman productions of the early 1960's, and Two Evil Eyes is best suited to Poe/Romero/Argento purists.

    3.0 out of 5 stars CHE PECCATO!
    Reviewed in Italy on 8 July 2016
    Ho comprato questo Bluray perchè in italia non esiste la versione di DUE OCCHI DIABOLICI in questo formato. Il Bluray tedesco offre la lingua italiana.
    Devo però distinguere due cose in questa recensione:
    1) Il servizio è stato, come sempre, ottimo, rapido ed efficiente. Il bluray mi è arrivato ampiamente nei tempi stabiliti e confezionato a dovere (quindi senza graffi, sgualciture o altro).
    2) Purtroppo il prodotto non corrisponde alle descrizioni fatte. Fondamentalmente per 2 motivi: A) il film è pesantemente tagliato nelle scene cruente e questo non viene segnalato da nessuna parte. B) non ci sono gli speciali indicati sia in descrizione che sulla fascetta.
