During a visit to an abandoned town on the mountains in Italy, five friends bring back to light an ancient relic found nearby an old monastery. From that moment, the villagers of the ghost town come back to life to hunt them down. A blind priest will try to save their lives, but what are his real intentions? Who is watching them everywhere they go?”

DEAD EYES stars Sveva Raimondi, Diego Riccobene, Paolo Riva and Orsetta Borghero. The movie, entirely shot in authentic haunted locations in Italy, aims to be the Italian answer to [REC] and V/H/S.
