Billy Idol wrote Eyes Without A Face after he saw Les Yeux Sans Visage.
It is a haunting bordering on ghastly French horror movie about a surgeon whose daughter is severely injured in a car accident he caused. Her face is severely scarred by the tragedy so the doctor kills a young woman so that he can steal her face to graft onto his daughter's. But the face rots so he has to kill another then another then another. It is a stunning film and made even more intoxicating when juxtaposed with Billy's classic.
