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.

  • Classic horror movie, do I need to say more

    I read somewhere that this is one of Christopher Lee's favorite roles, maybe because he gets to sing in it. He had a beautiful voice.

  • great mystery-horror

    a British classic which builds slowly to a terrifying conclusion. A British church going detective is sent to a private island to investigate the murder of a child.The whole island tries to convince him that the child never existed as little by little he observes pagan beliefs.It is all a plot to lure him to the conclusion.the movie keeps your interest until the end
