Amazon.co.uk Review IThe Eyes of Laura Mars/I put an original spin on the "women in peril" plot staple by giving us Faye Dunaway as a fashion photographer disturbed by visions of real violence echoed in her flashy, SM-influenced work. The visions start coming closer to home as her woman friends are butchered and their copies of her work vandalised. Good-looking cop Neville (Tommy Lee Jones) argues that her art is responsible, but nonetheless starts an affair with her. Hints are dropped that the killer might be someone close to her, like obsessive ex-con driver Tommy (Brad Dourif) or her possessive ex-husband Michael (Raul Julia). Evocative scenes of 70s' New York nightclub excess, and the strikingly perverse photographs of Helmut Newton, now create a period 70s' flavour to this flawed psychic thriller. Dunaway's performance is suitably overwrought and the young, slimline Jones is at once attractive and off-key. pBOn the DVD/B: The DVD comes with subtitles, director's commentary, a publicity short made at the time and an interesting lecturette illustrated with yet more photographs. I--Roz Kaveney/I

Laura Mars (Faye Dunaway) is an artist with a unique vision. She stages crime scenes for her unique photography. She has quit an imagination. Or does she?
br /
br /Visiting her gallery is John Neville (Tommy Lee Jones) a police authority. He recognizes her pictures as unpublished actual crimes.
br /
br /We must get to the bottom of this. And of course as with all mysteries it is the last person you would suspect. (Sure)

br /John Neville, whispering "It's terrifying."
br /Laura, "Yes."
br /John Neville:, whispering "It's beautiful."
br /Laura, "Yes."

It amazes me how few people have seen this movie! Written by John Carpenter (HALLOWEEN) and starring Faye Dunaway in a campier-than-though performance, this thriller does just that; it thrills. Chills to the bone.pDunaway plays a late-seventies fashion photographer who is able to see through the eyes of a serial-killer as he stalks his victims through New York.pExcellent. (honestly!)
