: The Wicker Man
I actually liked this. I haven’t seen the original, so I don’t know what that was like. The “surprise” is not much of one, and the long slow path to get there is exceedingly annoying, and there are huge holes in the plot and questions never answered. The worst is the strange car accident that opens the movie — it was never explained and serves more as a red herring to confuse the situation and haunt the main character. But despite tons of flaws (including cult stereotypes), the story is somewhat intriguing, and though I thought I shouldn’t have liked it, I did.
