Oh, I had no idea you did not know first hand the glory that is The Wicker Man, with groovy Christopher Reeves. Isn't it fabulous? It's practically a musical. It was a rather troubled production, so the film's been recut a few times--I think the version I have isn't the best, either. The longer one is supposed to be better.
But still, it's so *weird* but works well, especially the ending (and that last shot of the head falling off is great). Plus there's Britt Eckland and her dubbed-in voice. Who on earth came up with casting her in the role of a barkeep's daughter who's one defining characteristic is that she's never been off this small island in Scotland?
