A detective
enters a secret society
with terrifying consequences
in The Wicker Man
In
1973, a low-budget
film with a stellar
british cast and
a dark sense of
dread shocked movie-goers
and became a unique
cult classic.
The Wicker Man featured
horror icons Christopher
Lee and Ingrid Pitt
and starred the
always excellent
Edward Woodward,
seen most recently
as Mr. Jones in
La Femme Nikita
and known from the
late 1980's TV show
The Equalizer. The
beautiful Britt
Ekland stars (often
nakedly) as a seductive
pagan girl. The
shocking ending
is a classic of
modern horror.
21st century viewers
may see echoes of
the California Burning
Man ritual in this
story of pagan fire
ceremonies.
