In the 1970s, Scottish police officer Howie (played by Edward Woodward) received a letter stating that Ron Morrison, a girl on the summer island, a small island on the west coast of Scotland, had been missing for a long time. Ask him for help to solve the case. Howie came to Xia Island to investigate and found that the atmosphere on the island was very strange. The residents first said that they did not know the girl, and then said that the girl was dead. But Howie did not find the girl's body. The whereabouts of the missing girl became increasingly unclear. The truth of the case is getting more and more confusing. Howie was surprised to discover that the residents of the island were a group of The Wicker Man who did not believe in Jesus Christ. Lord Summer Island (Christopher Lee) seems to have great power and prestige. They did not cooperate with Howie's investigation. When Howie was about to leave the island, he discovered the tradition of using living people to worship in the island’s May Festival. He was ready to find out, but he didn’t know that the danger was approaching him.

Very refined film, the sense of incongruity, isolation and contrast throughout the film, no jump scares, bright colors and beautiful ballads against spiritual evil, Christians against pagans, and Uncle Lee's straight eyes .

Seeing me is thrilling... Mysterious island, mysterious worship. I thought I had seen The Shining, and I was not afraid of those animals. The result is still scary... Four stars are for the end
The Wicker Man quotes
-
Lord Summerisle: I think I could turn and live with animals. They are so placid and self-contained. They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins. They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God. Not one of them kneels to another or to his own kind that lived thousands of years ago. Not one of them is respectable or unhappy, all over the earth.

Miss Rose: The building attached to the ground in which the body lies is no longer used for CHRISTIAN worship, so whether it is still a CHURCHYARD is debatable.
