Eyes of Fire
Directed by Avery Crounse
On the 18th century frontier, an adulterous preacher and his followers flee to ‘the promised land’ only to enter a valley of lust, madness, pagan vengeance and hallucinatory terror. In 1983, acclaimed photographer Avery Crounse made his debut as writer/director with what is considered to be the seminal American folk horror film. Misunderstood by audiences and mishandled by distributors, it has remained virtually unseen until now.

What a gem. Folky, artsy, trippy, creepy, and lots of breasts.
if you enjoyed "The Company of Wolves" or "The Lair if the White Worm", you might like this.
Total gem, but prob for those with deeper interests in horror. If slow, surreal, and “arty” are not your thing, you might not dig this one. Die hards will love it.
What is this? is this like, a high school play? It's a riot but clearly not intentionally LOL
Very enjoyable, but where did some of those women get their hair done in the wilderness?
