THE WICKER MAN (2006) (2006)
NEIL LABUTE
Plot
Troubled cop Edward Malus journeys to mysterious Summers Isle in order to uncover the truth behind the disappearance of a friend's young daughter, but his quest brings him up against the matriarch of an unfathomable pagan community and the deeper he digs the more horrific his revelations become. Adapted from the classic, creepy as hell, 1970s film of the same name, this reworking seems more concerned with becoming the celluloid definition of error'. If you've never seen the original then enjoy the hokum, but if you have run, run like the wind and grab the first boat off this rock of doomed misconception.
