Whose seen this movie? If you havnt you must! OMG spookiest movie ever! Perhaps more spookie as a Britisher, to think such poeple exist upon these very isles! (which they proabbly dont, but they may do!!!)

The Wicker Man
-
Whats the movie about?
-
A devoutly christian police officer goes to this remote island just off the coast of Scoltand to investigate a missing girl. He discovers the local populace are worshipping pagan gods...and up to various other michief! Spooky movie! Made and set in the 1970's btw.This movie, along with Straw dogs, will put you off visiting Celtic Britain for life! And I say that as a Welshman!
-
That sounds interesting, Celtic makes it sound cooler lol but what genre is this? horror? is the movie good atleast? any good gross parts?
-
Lots of nudey parts (but hey this is the era of free love!), no gory as such. I wouldnt say scary in what we se eas scary these day. it wont make you jump...its generally just spooky. I mean The idea that something like that exists so close to home is scary for me! And like all the most scary movies its not in the least supernatural.
-
This isnt based on a true story is it? cause thats the stuff that scares me. The movie of the Emily Rose didnt scare me but it did also make me deaf with all the damn screaming! lol
-
Nah its not true...but noone, not even the Scots themselves, trusts the Scots, so you never know.
-
I'm actually going to Blockbuster in a few minutes.I'll check it out.Thanks for the recommendation.

-
As opposed to most films which portray Christians as shady, corrupt, murderous, bigoted psychopaths.
We're both good folks, no?
-
**very true honey very true..........damn those biggoted stereotypes ** :grin:
-
Evil or not, when do you run around naked like the people in the movie? Can we watch? ....LoL
-
Thats a good point. The Wicker Man has this devout uber-catholic as its hero. Religeon is big theme in the movie (I wouldnt like to say it was trying to give a particular message or anything though), I think you should watch it.
-
I just found out they are doing a remake of the movie set in Maine. That cant be nearly as good as with Scots, and it wont have funky 70's neo-folk music
-
well i do that all the time hon, you only had to ask
-
I was gonna rent it last night but it was actually out.Next time though.Ever seen the movie Dark Secret of Harvest Home? A 70's flick with Bette Davis. Kind of a similar plot, based on your description.
-
No I havnt, but I'll look out for it. I was lucky with The Wicker Man, it was given free with The Sun, a trashy newspaper that I wouldnt normally buy.
