The Wicker man

[Millergirl4]

I had heard so many bad reviews about this movie so I never bothered to rent it. Last night it was on the movie channel on my dish so I thought I'd check it out thinking that it would stink so bad that I'd only get through the first hour and then watch The Presley's on Larry King. I ended up watching the whole thing, it was intruging enough to keep me wanting to see what happened in the end although I had a fairly good idea what was coming.

An island run by women, sounds scary to me and I think all the men there (who were slaves really) had their tongues cut out. I found it to be an interesting movie but not scary really. The actress who played opposite of Nicolas Cage was a total moron and I felt like slapping her several times in the movie.

Anyone else see this movie?

I never saw it. I heard way too many bad things about it.

I felt the same way but it was better than watching 'so you think you can dance'. ;D

[Spooky]

Anything's better than watching that crapola. ;D

I haven't watched it because I had heard bad things about it AND, most importantly, I didn't want to ruin the original in my mind by watching the remake.

The original was plain creepy, especially the people in masks. I'm thinking that Kubrick got the idea for the dog costume in The Shining from the original Wicker Man.

If you haven't seen the original check that one out!

I forgot it was a remake! Maybe I will catch the original.

Good catch on the masks, they were creepy and I see the resemblance.
