I once saw a movie but only remember bits and pieces of it. Can Anyone Help me? Here is what i remember.
a couple crosses a bridge into a small community that is controlled by the women. They have festivals where they choose 1 woman and a man to breed and once the act is done they cut the head off of the man. any man that tries to tell gets his tongue cut out. they choose the new couple daughter to be the next one to get pregant.....does any of these sound familar to anyone. thanks so much....I watch the Wickerman last night and that brought it back to my mind but i can't recall the name....

I think it was "The Dark Secret of Harvest Home", a made-for-TV movie. The details I remember are: There is an older midwife/granny-type woman who is in charge of all the women. She goes around making house calls, and one of the men she takes care of is a guy with no tongue and who can't see. His wife brings him books on tape from the library. Near the end of the movie, the guy in the young couple that moved to town decides he will spy on the women, and he sees whatever it is they do. At the end of the movie, he has had his tongue cut out and is made blind too, and his wife is also bringing him books on tape from the library.
Is that it?
And here's what one person said on IMDB:
". . . there can be little doubt King was influenced by Thomas Tryon's outstanding novels "The Other" and "Harvest Home."
The TV movie version of the latter book, titled "Dark Secret of Harvest Home," was the second and final adaptation of Tryon's work and was originally aired in 1978 . . . Unlike 1972's "The Other," "Dark Secret of Harvest Home" was presented as a mini-series with a superb cast headed by Bette Davis."
