It's being called 'The Eye.'

The island is a near perfect circle at 130 yards in diameter that shifts over time in a perfectly round pond with unusually clear water.

New findings suggest that the circle not only rotates on its own axis but is also leaning in various sectors on the wall of the outer circle that contains it.

Many believe the peculiar island is not a natural formation.

Scientists say the island has existed since at least 2003.

Conspiracies of the island being an alien base have also sprouted.

Producer and director Sergio Neuspiller discovered the island while location scouting for a sci-fi horror film.

His is hoping to raise $50,000 on Kickstarter to explore the island with a team of scientists and high-tech devices.
