Storyline

A new international terrorist group attack the castle of an Austrian prince during his party, but one of the guests, a contractor, deals with them. The CIA then hires him to find the men behind the attack and take them out. This big budget film with many 'A' stars was barely released. In fact, despite being a U.S. production filmed in Europe, it was never widely screened theatrically in America nor did it receive a video release.

A staggering achievement of craft and ambition. Andrew V. McLaglen's vision lands with breathtaking precision.

Every frame feels alive. Eye of the Widow is the rare release that takes its audience seriously.
