“The Hypnotic Eye” (1960) Part I

[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053931/]

Beau­ti­ful women dis­fig­ure them­selves under the hyp­not­ic con­trol of a suave stage hyp­no­tist and his sin­is­ter assis­tant. Part I (here) con­sists of a descrip­tion of and the his­to­ry of the movie: sub­se­quent parts will include selec­tions of the pro­mo­tion­al mate­r­i­al and press images (from my exten­sive col­lec­tion) gen­er­at­ed to pro­mote the movie.

“The Hypnotic Eye” — It Has Arrived!

[amtap amazon:asin=B0047DKLBO]

For those of you not famil­iar with this lit­tle curios­i­ty of a movie, “The Hyp­not­ic Eye” is a B&W hor­ror movie from 1960 and fea­tured a suave hyp­no­tist whose female sub­jects all dis­fig­ured them­selves. It has been a minor quest of mine to locate a decent and legal copy of it for my col­lec­tion, but for years, the only copies avail­able were obvi­ous boot­leg copies of vary­ing quality.

When I first was aware of the avail­abil­i­ty of the DVD through Ama­zon, I was skep­ti­cal about the qual­i­ty, but it also was the only way to get a legit­i­mate copy, so about two weeks ago I ordered a copy as a Christ­mas present for myself.

Well, today, it arrived, and here’s my reac­tion to it.
