Synopsis:
When a young girl mysteriously disappears on a remote Scottish island, devout Christian Police Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward) travels there to investigate. He finds a close-knit and secretive pastoral community living on an island paradise, ruled over by mysterious Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee), with beliefs very much at odds with his puritanism.
The islanders mock Howie's attempts to question them about the girl's disappearance, and put the very foundations of his faith to the
test. He begins to fear that the fate of the girl could be linked to the
islanders' failing crops and their belief that only a sacrifice of the highest
order will change their luck.
As May Day festivities intensify and the islanders' behaviour becomes more frenzied, Howie's quest to save the girl becomes a race against time…
