08/06/2019 I'm writing this review a couple weeks after having watched the film and I can barely remember it. However, IMDB refreshed my memory and it was about a group of archeologists uncovering an ancient and cursed treasure underneath the titular tower. The film was more gruesome than I was expecting and had a decent amount of atmosphere given it's meager budget, but the story and characters were all pretty dull which really drug the film down. Okay viewing for people wanting something along the lines of a lesser Hammer Horror film. See more 08/20/2016 I loved it for what it was. The oufits, hairdoos, and boobs were enough for me. See more 03/11/2014 What could be scarier than a deformed, crazy killer lurking in the underground caves of a foggy deserted isle, picking off a group of people (who went there to search for some old treasure) one by one? Theoretically, this sounds like a great recipe for horror. And yet, despite the fact that this film is VERY explicit in terms of gore and nudity (male and female) for an early-70's release, it is visually sub-par, and because it doesn't have a single even remotely interesting character (the women are portrayed as promiscuous sluts), the viewer has nothing to do but sit there and wait for most of the cast members to get chopped up. In a word, boring. See more 07/08/2011 This film starts out nicely with a mad woman trying to remember what happened to her friends on Snape Island. One friend was found impaled with a pure gold Phoenician spear which leads a group of archeologists to the island. While the special effects are laughable, the atmosphere and camera work are a notch above standard B-movie fare. Unfortunately, the film breaks down in the third act with an ending everyone saw coming and some ridiculous "monsters." Spend your time on something better. See more 05/27/2010 It had some moments, but the majority was boring and lame. I have heard that this movie is known for creating a bridge between the classic gothic horror movie and the slasher film, but I've seen it done better from the same period. Pretty unmemorable really. See more 07/16/2009 A bad movie, yet the pacing made it almost watchable. All the parts were bad but maybe the idiotic violence helped it a little in the end. See more Read all reviews
