Peter v A creatively and stylefully shot horrorcomedy where the protagonist is a fool who is constantly in enraged shock by the outrageous agan habits of the small island soceity he is visiting to investigate the disappearance of a young girl. This unfolds into a delightful spiral into madness, as this royalist christian copper reveals himself not to be the kind that wants to save the heathens, but ultimately curse them when he finally realises he never had any resemblance of a upperhand at all. Something the audience was delightfully aware all along. The performances are all great, the set- and costume designs excellent. The movie shines in it's musical sequences where even our cleancut, prude protagonist finds himself enthralled and bewitched into experiencing and confronting his own desires to be sinful. Highly entertaining, would highly recommend. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/12/24 Full Review Matt S An absolute masterpiece. A film you cannot place into any category; totally unique. Strangely uplifting too. Perhaps it's the community spirit that appeals ! You will have to watch it to understand. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/16/24 Full Review Edward P This is such an unsettling film. It’s brilliant. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/23/24 Full Review Bucky D One of my favorites. A great psychological horror movie with Lee and Woodward whom I'm a big fan of. I had to watch it twice to really figure out why Woodward's character was targeted. I love the landlord's daughter song and representation of the island's odd customs. Then the climax ending with Lee and the townsfolk singing and swaying as the wicker man burns. It's a masterpiece. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/19/24 Full Review Stephen U Both entertaining and terrifying at the same time. The weirdness keeps you invested right up until the end. I've been hesitant to recommend it to others simply due to the shocking ending Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/13/24 Full Review Jonathan G This most definitely inspired Aster’s Midsommar. “The Wicker Man” is a horror… musical? Shocking, but it executes its genres in a certain way that makes this feels like one of the most influential horror films of all time. Christopher Lee knocks this out, is still unarguably one of our best actors of all time, and the cinematography and directorial choices are all bangers. Completely atmospheric in every way.
