Thriller Feature Film "Behind Your Eyes"

Leslie is a complex character caught in the middle of a toxic love triangle. She begins the story guilt-ridden and emotionally torn between two men—her ex, John, and her current lover, Brandon. Over the course of the film, Leslie goes from guilt and self-doubt to sheer terror. She experiences significant emotional transformation, from being passive to facing psychological horror head-on.

John, once charming and easygoing, has transformed into a vengeful, broken man. Buried alive by his best friend and former lover, he survives and comes back with one purpose: to make them suffer the way he did. John is calculating, cold, and unrelenting in his quest for revenge, yet still harbors complicated feelings for Leslie.

Brandon is Leslie’s current boyfriend, a seemingly supportive and level-headed partner, but he’s harboring his own guilt about betraying his former best friend, John. When John reappears, Brandon is pushed to his limits, struggling to protect Leslie while grappling with his own sense of shame. He loves Leslie but finds himself out of his depth as things spiral out of control.

Eddy is John’s cousin and a local cop. Eddy becomes suspicious of Leslie and Brandon, which propels him into investigating John’s disappearance. Eddy finds himself torn between his loyalty to his family and his duty to the law. He provides a moral anchor but is ultimately pulled into the chaos.

Tina is Leslie’s carefree, outspoken and somewhat cynical best friend. She’s not afraid to speak her mind, often adding biting humor to tense situations, but she doesn’t realize how deep things have gotten until it’s too late.

Jill is more reserved compared to Tina, but she’s perceptive and cautious. She is supportive of Leslie, but often questions whether Leslie is being entirely truthful about her past.

Tate is one of the group’s jokesters, a friend who always seems to take things lightly, even when the situation becomes serious. While his carefree attitude brings some levity, he eventually realizes the gravity of the situation.
