About this product
Product Information
A notoriously troubled production notwithstanding, the controversial cult classic THE WICKER MAN is now regarded as a classic of British cinema. Edward Woodward stars as Sergeant Howie, a naive young police officer sent to Summerisle, a secluded island off the coast of Scotland, to investigate the disappearance of a young girl named Rowan. When he arrives there, he finds a very tight-knit community that is mistrustful and hostile to outsiders. No one is willing to even acknowledge Rowan's disappearance. Soon, Howie begins to realize that the town might, in fact, be a strange pagan cult, one given to unbridled sexuality and possible human sacrifice. Seeking an audience with the oddly civilized Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee), Howie hopes to get to the bottom of the mystery, but instead he finds something more shocking than he could have ever imagined. Written by Anthony Shaffer (SLEUTH, DEATH ON THE NILE), Robin Hardy's eerie film paints a disturbing portrait of an almost prehistoric, multi-deity worshipping society given to bizarre rituals and Bacchanalian excess. Though recognition may have been a long time coming, THE WICKER MAN stands as a strikingly original achievement that is equal parts horror, drama, comedy, and musical.Product Identifiers

50yrs on & it will ALWAYS "pack-the-punch", the original & best.everytime. get it for mayday
50th anniversary 2023! Being close to Padstow the Obby 'Oss & festivities already well known to me. It packs-the-Punch everytime, (fans get the director cut). Inspector Howie's fanatical Christian dogma slams against the older faith reinstated to Summerisle: disquieting, erotic, humorous, dramatic & yes haunts u looooong after best finale ever!!! Lee & Woodward et al, esp the Gaelic Scots cast superb. I watch every Mayday. Doesn't date it's outside of Time. Will still shock audiences in another 50+ years. This Shepherd awards 5baas+🐏🐑🐏🐑🐏.
