"Land Of The Minotaur" is a Greek horror film from 1976. It stars Donald Pleasance and Peter Cushing. It is about groups of tourists who keep disappearing with the local police playing it dumb on a small island due to a cult having most of the island's residents in it, along with their Priest having a lot of power. An Irish priest, played by Donald Pleasance, along with hired aids, investigates and finds out what happened to the tourists, then has to go back and find out the items and religious methods needed in order to defeat the evil spirit inside the minotaur statue that gives the dark cult its powers. Ths film is very artsy and gory with Peter Cushing playing one of his darkest and most bizarre roles. It is slower paced with a lot happening at the same time to where the viewer must pay close attention to understand what is happening in there. Overall, it is cool looking and intense for those who can pay attention and keep up with it. This should appeal to some into the Hammer films and/or the giallo era horror films.
