The Wicker Man (1973). This cult classic has to be one of the most wonderful movies ever made. i hate movies with singing, but somehow this would have been incomplete, empty almost, without the presence of such wonderful song. There is much to appreciate here, like lots of nudity, but again the nudity is not gratuitous by any account. The story itself is foreboding though wrapped in an insidiously innocent package. The acting was awesome, with the regal Christopher Lee almost stealing the show and with Edward Woodward's pious and self-righteous performance being top notch. Somehow, Edward's character elicits empathy despite his parochial piety. All in all, this low-budget thriller deserves to be ranked as one of the best horror flicks to bless the silver screen. Mercie beaucoup.
