the ORIGINAL...from the 60s. Jesus what fucked up shit.
Then I watched the nic cage one and it seemed kind of normal. The women hitting scenes made me laugh because I've seen them so many times here. Has anyone else seen the old one with Britt Ekland?? |

No. About 4 days in between. And I watched the first one in two parts and may have missed some of the middle.
But the ending was very much the same. I still wonder why, in the first one, he didn't just rock the fucking thing until it fell over. It would have worked. That dude didnt' even put up a fight. At least they pretended to break Cage's legs in the second one. |

I laughed my ass off at Nic Cage being burned alive. If only.

YES! It was fucking funny in its weirdness. And the original didn't have the whole women's colony/bee theme. They grew apples or something.

The first release was even stranger than what is on the DVD release now, they had to recut it because it was "Too pagan" |

The first release was even stranger than what is on the DVD release now, they had to recut it because it was "Too pagan" The first release was actually about 12 minutes shorter than Robin Hardy's intended cut; he restored much of that for the later release but the entire 99-minute film is apparently lost to history (and was never seen by the public). The limited edition box set has the theatrical cut as well as the extended version. |

I didn't know that Iron Maiden had made a video for Wicker Man. I wonder if Eddie is in it.

I watched the original Wickerman a few days ago too. It's running on one of the showtime channels, I think.
I thought it was bizarre and not very good. The Britt Eckland ass slapping dance in the room at the inn-just seemed so damn stupid. I thought Christopher Lee did a great job and I loved listening to all the Scottish accents. And the way Rowan Morrison's mother says, hares. Def. not scary at all. |
