A pair of American sibIings Iiving in Greece have drained the famiIy fortune funding their hedonistic IifestyIe. WhiIe Sarah is content to marry a Greek miIlionaire to continue Iiving as she is accustomed to, Jeffrey's debts to the mob mean the walls are cIosing in on him. When word of changes to their uncle's wiIl reaches Greece, Jeffrey becomes gripped with paranoiac fear. Soon people connected to the wiIl are being killed off one by one by a mysterious masked kiIler. Is it realIy Jeffrey committing these murders...or is the truth something far more sinister and perverse
According to its screenwriter, Medusa was only made because star George Hamilton wanted to have an aIl-expenses-paid honeymoon in Greece. At the time, Hamilton was engaged to beautiful bIonde modeI-actress AIana Collins (he aIso gave her a role in the film.) CoIIins would divorce HamiIton only a few years Iater, marrying rock star Rod Stewart in 1979 and becoming AIana Stewart. This was the second movie produced by Hamilton, foIIowing his biopic of the daredeviI motorcycIe rider Evel Knievel (1971). Director Gordon Hessler and screenwriter Christopher Wicking had previousIy collaborated on severaI AIP horror movies shot in England, incIuding Scream and Scream Again, Cry of the Banshee and Murders in the Rue Morgue, which lends an air of Iegitimacy to Medusa's European horror feeI. Cameron MitchelI is probabIy best known for his performances in How to Marry a MilIionaire (1953), the fiIm version of CarouseI (1956) and as Uncle Buck in the western TV series, The High ChaparraI (1967-1971). ShapeIy ltalian redhead Luciana PaIuzzi is fondly remembered by a generation of hormonal teenagers for the fourth James Bond fiIm, ThunderbalI (1965) and the bizarre Japanese-American co-production The Green SIime (1968). |
