Stan, that is great.
I kind of love The Wicker Man.
The pagan/renaissance fair business is inherently cornball, the Britt Eklund dancing/Edward Woodward wall-pounding scene is unintentionally funny, and the music is atrocious. But! This thing somehow manages such a creepy atmosphere in spite of all that that it works for me.
I will also note that I enjoyed the remake because of how silly and awful it is. Nic Cage is something else. Not crazy about the wall-to-wall misogyny in the thing, but somehow, to me, the flat-out stupidity kind of makes it facile. I may feel different if I was a woman.
