Pagans v Christians.
The British original of this film is great. The Yank remake is excrement.

The Original & the Best
Edward Woodward at his acting best a classic film not to be missed. Strange how you have the piccie of Nick Cage up above to advertise this film tho as its not the remake it is the original lol!

The Great Original
This time it is the original, despite the TV guide folks having the wrong graphic on the page. A must see film. The remake is an utter turkey. Amazed Nick Cage was willing to even be in it.

Insulting To The 1793 Original!
Don't mistake this remake with the awesome 1973 original, this remake is so bad it's a comical insult of the original.

Awful Remake & Insult!
Rowan Woodward is the missing girl instead of Rowan Morrison in the 1973 classic, is this a cross between Edward Woodward (the original star) and Rowan Morrison? Anyway, it's not a patch on the original 1973 version and it's almost comical it's that bad. Some people have rated and obviously think this is the classic 1973 version, but this really is terrible in comparison. A total insult.

Beyond Ghastly
Everything that was truly great about the original film is absent from this sad excuse for a film. Frankly if I was in that village, I would have killed Nicholas Cage far earlier. Not even enjoyable on an ironic level.

Yes it's beyond terrible but..

Why
Totally unnecessary americanized remake of the 1970's classic starring the late, great Edward Woodward. This version is absolute crap.

Obviously...
...some people have rated this highly thinking it's the original. Do not be fooled! Take the figure in the top right, half it, and subtract at least another 1. Now go watch another film.

How DID it get burned?
Nick Cage is a genius- or is he? This ludicrous American remake of the 1960s cult masterpiece makes an unanswerable case for Cage as a comedy genius. It's an awful film - but it is so bad that it comes close to great. Remember, folks, that the original Wicker Man is still out there - they didn't delete it when they remade it, so it's not the end of the world.

Confusion
All the comments praising the film are older so I think it must be the website confusing this version with the good one, not the posters. Shame there are so few roles for older actresses that the talented Ellen Burstyn and Frances Conroy have to do rubbish like this.

An 'OK' remake not a patch on the original though!
An 'ok' remake but not a patch on the original, much better to watch the original if you are new to The Wicker man

A Classic
One of those films everyone should see at least once in thier lifetime. Timeless. (PS eggo - ironic that you should respond to a suggestion that someone should get an education with a random illiterate string of words ... but hey)

re billy
it is based on fact. placed in a wooden man like structure geese, pigs, humans etc can burn. it is the true. it must be fire and hot however. beacause of the fire. and the not burnness of things in there natural state. like geese on water. or swans, whitch belong to queen. why?

@SLENDERTONE
If you're really interested I would consider getting an education. They're relatively easy to come by. All you need is a glimmer of intelligence and you'll be all set. Best of luck.
