Good mystery (part exploitation) film

Medousa makers did a good job maintaining a mystery atmosphere throughout the film.

The plot is centered in the life of the lonely, bad-ass hero and his quest for retribution. The mythology slowly emerges and through a nice going plot the film has a great high climax at the end.

The photography is great and the exterior scenes very refreshing. Dialogues are short, at times clever but mostly poor but they help maintain the mystery in the movie.

Apart from poor dialogs, irrelevant characters and amateur fight scenes, Medusa saves the day ...even if she's of the night.

Roger Corman, John Carpenter and Guillermo del Toro's early films fans might wanna see this.
