There may be links to adaptations of Ian Fleming's James Bond in 1976 horror film Land Of The Minotaur (The Devil's Men). I thought actress Jessica Dublin in this cast may resemble Roger Moore, the second major actor to portray the famous spy character. She appeared in The Italian Connection in with Adolfo Celi, who was Emilio Largo in Thunderball.

- Donald Pleasence may be the main connection here, he played Bond villain Ernesto Blofeld in You Only Live Twice (1967).
- Christopher Lee, who acted with Peter Cushing in over 20 movies portrayed another villain, Scaramanga in The Man With The Golden Gun (1974), Moore played Bond in this.
- Previously, I mentioned 2 actresses in The Devil's Men who wear short cut shorts, which were later called "Daisy Dukes" after the fashion became attributed To The Dukes Of Hazzard actress Catherine Bach. I thought this may be an embeded future reference to actor Christopher Lee as Count Dooku in Star Wars 25+ years later. Actor Don Pedro Colley had a recurring role on The Dukes Of Hazzard & was seperately the embodiment of voodoo spirit Baron Samedi in unrelated horror film Sugar Hill (1974). Actor Geoffrey Holder played Samedi in the James Bond spy film Live And Let Die in 1973.

00:00We're talking about knowledge of the future of movies, YouTube channel, Easter Egg Psychic.
00:05Alright, watching 1976 horror film Land of the Minotaur, also titled The Devil's Men.
00:14But this cast featured Donald Pleasence, Peter Cushing, and Luan Peters.
00:19I thought actress Jessica Dublin, who played Miss Zagros in this cast,
00:26may bear a resemblance to James Bond actor Roger Moore.
00:32And although I couldn't find a link between her and Moore, the second major actor to portray author Ian Fleming's
00:42famous British spy character,
00:44there are many extended relationships.
00:46She was in The Italian Connection, La Mala Ordina, a 1972 thriller with Thunderball villain Adolfo Celli.
00:57And also in this, Henry Silva, Mario Adorf, Woody Strode, Cyril Cusack, and Sylvia Cushina.
01:05Christopher Lee, who acted together with Peter Cushing in over 20 films,
01:11played Bond baddie Scaramanga in The Man with the Golden Gun in 1974.
01:18Roger Moore was in that.
01:19Donald Pleasence may actually be the most direct link to James Bond in The Devil's Men.
01:26He played villain Ernesto Blofeld in You Only Live Twice in 1967.
01:32Sean Connery played Bond in that one.
01:36In a previous video, I mentioned a recurring visual item you'll see throughout this movie.
01:44And it involves the shortcut shorts worn by Luan Peters and Vaughna Rebels.
01:51This fashion later got the nickname Daisy Dukes after actress Catherine Bach made them famous in the Dukes of Hazzard
02:00TV series.
02:01Yeah, I thought this may be a future hint to Christopher Lee's portrayal of Count Dooku in the Star Wars
02:09prequel films.
02:10It just so happens that actor Don Pedro Colley, who is in George Lucas' THX 1138 in 1971,
02:20also had a recurring role on Dukes of Hazzard.
02:23And he has a link to James Bond.
02:26It is through the 1974 horror film Sugar Hill.
02:32Actor Jeffrey Holder played voodoo spirit Baron Samedi in James Bond Live and Let It Die in 1973.
02:41This was Roger Moore's debut in the role.
02:44Sugar Hill also deals with the subject of voodoo and zombies.
02:49Colley played another interpretation of Baron Samedi in this.
02:56Sugar Hill also starred Marky Bay, Robert Corey, and Charles Robinson.
03:03My YouTube channel is Easter Egg Psychic.
03:05There I go back and look at movies and television from the past.
03:09I analyze these for possible references to future media.
03:12These may appear in the form of anecdotes, idioms, anagrams, hidden in the subtext of the work in question.
03:18I also use an unconventional method where I look at the likenesses of the actors.
03:25And what I found is you can take the likenesses, match these up to some of the anecdotal items,
03:31and show past, present, and future information about actors and other personalities
03:37that may resemble the personalities in the movie or television episode that you're watching.
03:44My email contact is EasterEggGuy, that's G-U-Y, at Yahoo.com
03:51Thanks for watching.
