Peter Cushing in a Greek horror movie, 20 July 2008
Author: nonalger from Philippines

Peter Cushing was in a lot of bad movies in the later years of his career... So was Donald Pleasance in many years of his career... So what ? Both actors were cast together for this movie. Is it bad ? It certainly is, from a cinematographic pov, from a storytelling pov, from a special effects pov... Apart from a few good scenes with a bit of atmosphere in them, most of the movie is awful. There are a lot of scenes in which Peter Cushing appears as the leader of a coven of devil-worshippers but it looks as it is always the same scene repeated many times throughout the movie with the same dialog and the same movements. The only redeeming qualities, to my opinion, are the appearances of Peter Cushing (in a few scenes which were not repeated over and over again) and of Donald Pleasance in an otherwise cheap and ready-to-neglect movie. But the truth is, of course, Peter Cushing in those years, after the death of his wife Helen, would appear in anything, no matter how cheap, just to keep on working and keep his mind of from his loss, while Donald Pleasance on the other hand would appear in anything anyway, for whatever reason as long as the salary was decent... Whatever cheap movie both of them appeared in: as long as they had a bit of screen-time, they would make it worthwhile to their fans... And that's why these movies are popping up even now, 30 years later, on DVD or whatever medium...
