Plots(1)
George Franju's notorious horror story follows an eminent plastic surgeon (Pierre Brasseur) as he tries to reconstruct his daughter's badly disfigured face by grafting the living tissue from beautiful girls kidnapped by his devoted assistant (Alida Valli). Decades after it first shocked audiences around the world, often in censored versions, Eyes without a Face remains one the most unsettling and disturbing films ever made and has influenced countless filmmakers, from Jesus Franco and Dario Argento to Pedro Almodóvar.
