A grotesque, surreal slasher that weaponizes body horror and reality-bending to create sustained dread and disorientation.

An ophthalmologist's assistant with an unhealthy interest in human eyeballs goes on a killing spree to collect eyeballs for his overbearing mother's collection. Reality soon takes a bizarre turn, both for the characters and the audience.
