Overview

A man goes blind when remembering his lost girlfriend, but the doctors can't find anything wrong with his eyes. They fit him with an experimental device which allows him to see with the aid of a computer interface and brain electrodes. Meanwhile, a taxi driver is taking young women up to their apartments, giving them gas, and performing a little fatal amateur surgery on them. Their paths inevitably converge, and the blind man must try to stop the psychopath.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A lean, unnerving thriller that pairs psychological torment with visceral horror, as a blind man equipped with experimental technology finds himself the only witness to a serial killer's rampage. The film builds dread through its collision of technological unreality and brutal, intimate violence.
