Alicia I love this movie so much

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Rainey Dawn The original title of the British film is "Tower of Evil". It is known in the U.S. as "Beyond the Fog" and in Canada as "Horror on Snape Island" or "Horror of Snape Island".Not a film for me.... I kept fast forwarding and all I saw was naked young people wanting to have sex - minus one female. Why all the pointless sex scenes and nudity? To fill out the film because there isn't enough of a story to make a movie out of I'm afraid.Yes this is one of the prelude films to the stereo-typical slasher films of the 80's. We all know what happens already: A group of over-sex young people find a way to isolate themselves and then get picked off one by one by a slasher. *Yawn!* The monster at the end of this film is quite a laugh... stupid looking really. Not at all scary.Some people may really enjoy this film - but I for one did not like what little of it I watched. I'm just glad we have a fast forward button.I will give this movie a 2 just for the attempt of a Gothic atmosphere.2/10

JoeB131 This movie is somewhere between a slasher flick and a Hammer Horror movie.The plot is that some dead teens are found on an Island, and are followed up by some museum people looking for a lost treasure of an ancient idol of Baal. The whole Baal subplot is silly and doesn't really belong there, other than a device to get people on the island to be picked off by a rather pathetic killer.There is copious amounts of nudity and sex scenes you'd never see today because we are all too stuffy about that sort of thing.The makeup is cheap, and when you get to the money shot at the end where the monster is revealed, he looks just kind of silly.

JasparLamarCrabb SPOILER ALERT! A group of researchers travel to a remote island of the English coast to investigate the brutal murders of three Americans. They uncover a half-dead man, his completely dead wife and their cycloptic son. Also in the mix is an ancient ruin where sacrifices have taken place. A real piece of junk directed by Jim O'Connolly. The island, in long shots, is a miniature and the whole film is decidedly, and obviously, studio-bound. The cast is a bland mix of no-names save for Jill Haworth, slumming it after working with the likes of Preminger, Marais and (on Broadway) Hal Prince. Anna Palk, a Stephanie Beacham lookalike, adds some spark as a bitchy pothead. As bad as they come.

BloodTheTelepathicDog You can count the number of truly talented screenwriters at work over the years on two hands - and that might be pushing it. I love Gothic horror films from the 1960's and '70's, therefore I enjoyed this film but couldn't dismiss the quality of the script. The dialogue was poor but the most glaring deficiency in the script was the absence of tension building. Granted, there was some tension being built in the film, but the writer should have used Penny's character, in a flashback sequence, at the climax to better build the tension. Instead, Penny was forgotten.To fill you in on the plot, and who this Penny lady is I am referring to, I shall start from the beginning. The film opens with two sailors searching an island. They stumble upon three corpses of young Americans (British actors portraying Americans that is) before they meet up with Penny (Candace Glendenning). Penny is so visibly shaken, she kills one of the sailors before the other knocks her out with a crowbar. Penny is then taken back to the mainland where she is in a near catatonic state. A doctor tries to enter her mind and find out what happened at the island while the police are content with labeling her the killer of the three corpses - since she did kill one of the sailors. However, Penny killed the sailor with an ancient sword made of gold which interest some archaeologists. They gather into a boat and set to the island to find more ancient artifacts.On the island, the archaeologists, who are involved in a love rectangle, get dispatched one-by-one while trying to unlock the mystery of the island.STORY: $$ (No new ground charted here, and like I mentioned before, Penny should have been used more appropriately to convey dread for the archaeologists on the island. Some of the dialogue is atrocious. The female characters are depicted as sexually open, especially Anna Palk, yet they are written as the typical screaming, stay at the house type damsels when terror is presented).VIOLENCE: $$$$ (Violence hounds won't be letdown. There are multiple stabbings and a decent amount of gore, but that stuff isn't my cup of tea. There is also an explosion and a decapitation mixed in with the stabbings and occasional gun-play).ACTING: $$ (The acting is quite stiff with Anna Palk shining as the promiscuous vixen. Candace Glendenning does a fine job with the unstable Penny but I found it difficult to care for any character in this film outside of Penny - and again, the character was used poorly).NUDITY:$$$ (There is plenty of the flesh in this film. When the sailors encounter Penny for the first time, she is stark naked. Her chum also has a nude scene as well as several guys in the film).
