Subject: 80's movie guy with evil eye in hand
Does anyone know the name of this movie? All i remember is the ugly eye in some guys hand i think it blinked and was taking over him? please let me know
Subject: Re: 80's movie guy with evil eye in hand
I remember seeing that movie a while back. What comes to mind is Creepshow or something similiar, but it was a long time ago so I am a bit fuzzy on the details. They had quite a few short story movies back then like Tales From The Darkside, Twilight Zone.

"The Gate" maybe? Been a long time since I've seen that movie, but I think someone had an eye in their hand...

I think you are right...I think he had to stab it to get rid of it or something. The Gate starring a young Stephen Dorff.

I just saw "The Gate" on Starz a couple weeks ago for the first time in years. There is an eye that appears in one of the kids' hands. The kid freaks out and stabs it with a shard of glass.

Naw.. Bubble is talking about something else. I've seen the movie he is talking about.... I just can't remember what it was called. I remember the guy kept his hand wrapped up and I think he was losing his mind and getting desperate to get rid of it. (who wouldn't! ;D)
He's got me and some of my retro-friends stumped. My mom is a horror movie fan and has over 400 video tapes of horror movies.. I asked her and she's still trying to figure it out! She's seen it too, but can't remember the name.

That is what I remember of the movie also. I think he kept his hand wrapped because the eye could see (obviously, Ha, Ha) and would end up doing bad things. I don't know why I keep thinking it is a segment from one of those short story movies that were pretty popular in the 80's. I am wondering if it was adapted from a Stephen King story. I don't know, I am searching here. Someone please come up with the title.
