"The violence in the movie is bravely over the top, but nothing too exploitive, when Psycho gets what's coming to him (and you knew that he would) you find yourself rooting the hero on, no matter how grisly it gets. And kudos to Mr. Williams for not flinching when it comes to the violence, while uncomfortable at first, it makes the revenge so much sweeter when it finally comes around. And, because Williams is an excellent filmmaker, the violence isn't there just for the shock value, it actually forwards the story, which is pretty rare in these days of the 'torture film'. I'm giving The Hood Has Eyez three and a half out of four cigars. Williams hit the nail on the head with this movie...literally (see the movie.)"

"The first thing I’d like to say about this film is Watch This At Your Own Risk.
"The Hood Has Eyez" is not just a film that pushes the envelope, but then proceeds to give you a nice, nasty papercut to the eyeball. Yes, its that fucked up, and for the most part pretty entertaining as well. The thing about "The Hood Has Eyez" is I probably would have condemned and dismissed it in the same breath for its vile characters, inhuman nature and repulsive set-pieces. However, in the hands of director/writer Terrence Williams the film somehow survives such scathing and receives a recommendation (for those with VERY strong stomachs and very OPEN minds). The gore is respectably accomplished and definitely serves its purpose in sending both shudders and nausea through the viewer. I look forward to how Terrence Williams plans on fucking my head up with his next effort."

"Watching The Hood Has Eyez is akin to taking a step back into the ‘70s. The flick just feels like an exploitation classic—everything from the score to the shot choices, to the lighting screams “grindhouse.” Horror fans will have fun playing “spot the references.” The film’s title is an allusion to the work of horror director Wes Craven, the filmmaker responsible for The Hills Have Eyes and The Last House on the Left. In a nod to I Spit on Your Grave (aka Day of the Woman), this film too has a subtitle: The Hood Has Eyez (aka The Violation of Kimmy Valencia). And though this movie is similar to others in the “rape/revenge” genre, it’s not stuck in the past. The Hood Has Eyez is more extreme in its violence, sexuality, and bloody acts of depravity than any of the aforementioned movies. The Hood Has Eyez is a flick that does all it needs to do: entertain. Terrence Williams has come a long way in his journey through Hollywood. I can’t wait to see where he goes next."

"I have to give credit to director/writer Terrence Williams because this film is just down right sleazy, nasty, and vile. It's basically the type of subject matter you'd be talking about when mentioning the video nasties, or films that used to show up regularly on 42nd street, but with a more modern twist to it. I can't tell you just how mean spirited this movie can be at times, and there were moments of general shock on my face during some of the more violent scenes. I can't say that very often and believe me I watch a lot of films of this nature. I'm a sucker for sleaze and this one delivers the sleaze in boatloads. If you are thinking it might be time to check out a low budget Indy shocker, I'd say this is the one you should see."

"If you want to watch a seriously fucked up movie about rape and revenge, stop reading this review and go buy this movie right now! To put it simply The Hood Has Eyez is all about gratuitous gore and sex. Writer / director Terrence Williams has decided to make a movie with the most fucked up stuff he could think of and he can apparently think of some pretty fucked up stuff! There are scenes that I can honestly say were new gore that I have never witnessed before seeing this film. Oh yeah, there is gore! Skin crawling, cringing gore!"

"The Hood Has Eyez is mature horror to the max.....If you're easily offended or have a touchy stomach then you need to steer clear of this film as it will have you standing in the protest line within the first half an hour. However if you're looking for a new breed of truly brutal horror film......Read on! The filmmakers aren't lying when they say that there is something in this film to offend EVERYONE and ANYONE! It's an equal opportunity offender, and anyone who watches the film will see exactly what I mean.....Theres everything from Boobs and Full Frontal Nudity to Abortion and Sexual organ mutilation, In other words something for everyone! All in all though I must say this film works on all levels and is probably the first film in the last 15 years that managed to make my skin crawl and make me want to shower immediately afterwards. I applaud the filmmakers for taking the revenge/torture genre (of which they obviously love and respect) and giving us an uncensored and brutal approach to it. This is the most brutal and offensive film I've ever had the pleasure of watching yet all the characters are likeable in their own odd ways. In fact if I had to sum this film up in a sentence it would be this : "Severely brutal, offensive, and fucked up, but with a heart....A heart thats been pulled from the chest of all wronged women......but a heart nonetheless!" LOL...... needless to say dont watch this film with your girlfriend after you've had a fight. It might empower her and give her too many ideas!

I have to say this was probably the most vile and offensive movie that I've ever enjoyed to this level! It'll have you wanting to scratch your eyes out and take a shower with a steel wool pad one second and unable to peel your eyes from the screen the next. If you enjoyed the classic Grindhouse revenge films of the 70's such as "Day of The Woman", "Last house on the left", "Last House On Dead-End Street", etc then you'll go completely insane for this film....but even those films cant prepare you for the brutality of "The Hood Has Eyez".......You've been warned!!!!!! Buy this film today....you wont be disappointed!"

"Let me be clear for all of the kids in the room. This is not for the weak or the uninitiated to violent low budget horror films. This is a highly disgusting film that will scar you and probably your parents. For the puritans in the crowd there is plenty of violence, nudity, and rough language. Each scene tops itself with an unexpected over the top violating moment."

"This flick has it all: anal raping, used tampon sucking, golden showering, dirty sanchez giving, broken glass penetrating, penis castrating, fetus aborting, and more. The film is effective in that you want to keep watching to see what they’ll do next and just how far they’ll go. It has an undeniable grindhouse feel with its grainy quality and other shortcomings only adding to the experience. There are also a few scenes that are genuinely uncomfortable to watch. The Hood Has Eyez is seventy-three minutes of twisted torture from the sick mind of director/writer Terrence Williams."

"First of all: If you are of the political correct denomination, don't watch this film, you will not like it (even though on closer inspection the film is far less politically incorrect than it seems to be). Also, if you have got a weak stomach, don't watch. If you are a gorehound however, or a fan of 1970's grindhouse flicks, then this one is for you, a film about the torture, rape and humiliation of three pretty girls in schoolgirl uniforms including one of the girls' bloody revenge.
However, The Hood has Eyez is not just one mindless, misogynistic gorefest that has little to go for it above the violence, actually writer/director Terrence Williams shows remarkable skills in storytelling and character development, especially as the film is only approximately 70 minutes long, and somehow all the brutality makes sense in the context of his story instead of the story serving as a mere hanger for gruesome scene after gruesome scene.
On a directorial level, the film comes across as extremely savage, not so much because the violence is so explicit but because of the use of documentary- or news-style camerawork including handheld camera, long shots and sudden camera moves, which suggest a certain closeness to and authenticy of onscreen events. Plus, in this case, the obviously low budget works for the film, as it limits the number of locations which gives the film a much more coherent feel. And of course, certain very subtle references to 1970's grindhouse cinema are nothing short of charming (at least to fans like me).
That the key actors Cyd schulte and Antonio Royuela are impressive in their roles of course also helps ...
In all, watch this movie ... but only if you're sure you can stomach it !"

I really have to hand it to Terrence to have the balls to create such a brutal, sadistic twisted film which falls into the same category as these older cult classic films I have grown up loving (I Spit On Your Grave, The Last House On The Left). I can’t recall how many times when watching this film it had my emotions jumping from down to up, while I found myself slightly turning my head away from the TV and squinting my eyes from the extreme torture scenes. One minute it’s a low angel up the skirt panty scene and then the next it’s some guy pulling out a tampon and then sucking the blood out of it. This went on and on throughout the whole film, and honestly I loved every single minute of this film and most of all the impact it had on me. I can assure you that Terrence Williams: The Hood Has Eyez is one film you won’t regret buying and owning on DVD. If you enjoy watching rape and revenge films as I mentioned before, lots of nudity, extreme violent torture, well then this film is what you want to get right now.

'The Hood Has Eyez' is sicker than any early Wes Craven films, including 'Last House on the Left.'

Thankfully, The Hood Has Eyez is the sort of indie movie that makes Hollywood look like a bunch of pussies. High on the list of indecencies committed during this film are: golden showers, soiled tampon sucking, coat hanger fetus removal, violation with a broken beer bottle, penis nailing, and more than one instance of anal molestation – one of which culminates with the victim receiving a "Dirty Sanchez". Yes, this really is a treat for the whole family, provided that family is a bunch of hardened exploitation loving nutters of course.

The Hood Has Eyez is a disgusting and bloody film that makes you feel bad!

Terrence Williams surprises me with a gruesome and awfully unique take on the revenge thriller
with “The Hood Has Eyez,” in the end it’s an ambitious twist on "Last house on the Left" with
its legs firmly planted in the Grindhouse arena.
