Land of the Minotaur

The Land of the Minotaur (aka The Devil's Men) was a mid-1970s horror film that starred Peter Cushing and Donald Pleasence.

Luan Peters also stars in what's probably my favorite abduction scene, where she's kidnapped straight from a sound sleep in her bed by a cult member and gets carried off--still barefoot--with plenty of great shots of her kicking, struggling bare feet.

She gets tied down in a human sacrifice scene that, quite frankly, isn't very well done. It looks too busy, with too much happening in the frame.

Luan and her other sacrifice victims are rescued by Donald Pleasence, who plays a priest. Peter Cushing has the villain role.

The bondage, despite her being barefoot and scantily clad, is still so-so for me. I actually liked her abduction scene more. Oh well.
