Niko Mastorakis is simply a wild filmmaker. His debut film “Island of Death” is psychotic trash personified”, and his work in both horror and action throughout the 80’s and 90’s in both action, and horror would really just take things off from there. Death has Blue Eyes would be Mastorakis’ second effort as a director, which blends with action with shades of a paranormal thriller and the giallo to create something bizarre, unique, and truly fun.

The film follows Bob (Peter Winters) who heads off to Greece to meet up with his ol’ buddy Ches (Hristos Nomikos), a dude who seems to excel in all sorts of manly excesses like karate and racecar driving, and picking up the ladies. Right now he’s shacked up with Maria, and brings Bob home with them for some fun, until he gets the boot from his actual old lady. Well, it turns out Bob and Ches were using stolen identities to get their way, and are not caught by Geraldine and her daughter, but that’s apparently cool, because those ladies need the services of our dynamic duo, which get them involved in some seriously wild shenanigans.

I won’t claim Death has Blue Eyes is my favorite Mastorakis, it’s a bit more put together than his later stuff, but I do love it. It’s 77 minutes long, and not a minute feels wasted. It goes in, does what it wants to do, feels like a wild, trash horror, action mix tape, and then wraps it all up.

The film is presented two ways a 1:33:1 full frame transfer and a 1:85:1 transfer both are fine, but I think the 1:33 actually looks better, and feels more natural for the film. Colors looks solid, mostly everything is solidly detailed. Audio is a DTS-HD mono track in English. Extras include interviews with the cast and crew, a track from the soundtrack, an image gallery, and trailer. RECOMMENDED.
