What a stupid movie this is. I could go down the list of everything wrong with this crap, but there's no point. Simply put, nothing makes sense. It's a bunch of abstract, wannabe artsy scenes strung together with a dumb plot and abhorrent dialogue. For the entire movie I just felt bad for the actors - McGregor and Judd - for having to recite this verbal diarrhea. If I had to explain the story, it's basically that Judd's character is a sexy killer and McGregor's character gets a crush on her and starts stalking her. It's so dumb. There are subplots that are made out to be important in the beginning but get a half-assed resolution near the end. The ending itself is abrupt and horrendous. It's just so frustrating watching these characters do and say the dumbest things imaginable. I did get a few good laughs though.
I'm not even touching the fact that this is a tech-y investigation movie and how horrifically dated it looks now, but that could be forgiven if there was a good story to follow. As it is, the only defining characteristic of Eye of the Beholder is that it's the worst turd in Ewan McGregor's acting career and also happens to be the name of a Metallica song. Please don't watch this; don't make the same mistake I did.
