Eye Without a Face is a thrilling contemporary spin on the classic horror set up of retribution for the Peeping Tom who peers into the lives of others. Henry, a reclusive computer hacker who spends his days and nights by spying on beautiful women in his neighborhood, becomes convinced that one of the women he is stalking is involved in a string of murders which leading to true terror. Like Rear Window, this film will stay with you. Part cautionary tale, part nightmare, after screening, you will never uncover your computer's camera again. (Cinemax)

The idea is great, it offers a light glimpse into the world of hackers and what they can do on a computer. In addition, Dakota Shapiro played Henry's crazy character really well. However, as the film progressed, a series of terrible stupidities began to happen, which probably won't bother computer illiterates, but they really annoyed me. In the end, with the final twist, the film completely swept it all under the carpet, but due to those stupidities, the otherwise interesting atmosphere that the film had built disappeared, and the ending felt more like an obligation.
