Set in the Colonial era, "Eyes of Fire" - the film debut of experimental photographer Avery Crounse - recounts the creepy doings that occur when a preacher accused of adultery is banished with his followers to the unsettled wilderness, an isolated forest haunted by the spirits of long-dead Native Americans. LA's Cinefamily, which held its own screening of "Eyes of Fire" earlier this year, aptly describes the film as a "supernatural battle between good and evil, rife with impressively fantastical set pieces - from trees with faces and a mysterious naked forest-dwelling sect to rains of skulls and bones - all swung on a shoestring budget." (St. Louis International Film Festival)
