Plot: Three of life's losers stage a reunion early in the proceedings of Alligator Eyes. Renewing their long-standing friendship are alcoholic Roger Kabler, his self-defeating pal Allen McCullough, and McCullough's blind former girlfriend Annabelle Larsen. The trio goes on a cross-country trip, reminiscing on their wasted lives as they journey from town to town. Suddenly, out of nowhere, the film becomes a revenge tale, with Larsen searching for her parents' murderers. Then we segue into a series of sexual manipulation scenes, apparently orchestrated by unscrupulous psychiatrist John MacKay. Needless to say, the critics were crazy about Alligator Eyes; audiences, confused by the film's abrupt mood swings, were less enthusiastic. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Classic low-budget drama
Added 2/17/2009
When "Alligator Eyes" was first shown back in 1990, it made quite an impression for it's twist on the buddy-road-film genre. For whatever reason, the picture is forgotten today; even this bare-bones dvd took forever to come out, and when it did, noone noticed. But "Alligator Eyes", seen today, has lost little of it's quirky charm and remains a thoroughly engaging (if a bit odd) experience. One wonders why the lead actress never went on to any success, and why one of the actors moved on to Zima commercials, but who said life was fair? Recommended.
