Eyes Without A Face (1960)

Directed by Georges Franju this slick black & white french film tells a simple but haunting tale about a professor come surgeon who with the aid of his partner, kidnaps young girls in an attempt to remove their faces and graft them onto his own disfigured daughter's. Blaming himself for his daughters facial disfigurement the film touches on themes such as anguish, guilt, desperation and loneliness. The cinematography is wonderful, as are the costumes and mask of the young girl. The music's great too and overall has a genuinely haunting and creepy feel to it. A triumph of its age and well worth checking out.
