Review of Eye of the Devil (1966) by Allan C — 10 Nov 2013
Slickly made modern day horror film about David Niven returning to his ancestral family estate, only to be followed by his family who are taken aback when they find that the locals have returned to paganism.
It's a far cry from "Rosemary's Baby" but are some echoes of that film. Where this film goes wrong is that they lay out the paganism right away, whereas "Rosemary's Baby" kept it a mystery.
Still, this film has it's moments and was directed by the underrated J. Lee Thompson. The film also features Donald Pleasence, Sharon Tate and David Hemmings.
