Every time film critic Rob Hunter returns to Certified Forgotten, he brings the weirdness. This time, he's got a Spanish horror film that focuses on a movie-within-a-movie ... within another movie? Bigas Luna's Anguish stars Michael Lerner as an eyeball-obsessed killer who strikes fear in the audience watching the movie he's starring in, The Mommy. The camera pulls out, and we see we're not the only viewers paralyzed by what unfolds ... and that's just the beginning.
About Anguish
An ophthalmologist’s assistant with an unhealthy interest in human eyeballs (Michael Lerner) goes on a killing spree to collect eyeballs for his overbearing mother’s collection (Zelda Rubinstein). Reality soon takes a bizarre turn for both the characters and the audience.
