This was a 1970s tv movie or miniseries where a family moves to a
small country community and their teenage son becomes involved with
this harvest ritual where a harvest king is choosen,and the family
thinks it is an honor, but it turns out that the king is used for a
breeder, then sacrificed by the women of the community, and any male
that witnesed the ritual has his tongue cut out' andhis eyes sewn
shut. I'm dying to find out more about it.  Doc

That's the plot of a 1978 TV miniseries based on a novel called
"Harvest Home" by actor and author Tom Tryon, called "The Dark Secret
of Harvest Home." Bette Davis is also in it, as the town matriarch. It
was cut from its original 5 hour length and released on VHS, but is no
longer in print.

I am not sure if this is correct, but it sounds like "The Dark Secret
of Harvest Home". Check out the information on it on the Internet
Movie Database.
