    One of my favorite cult movies. A strange place isolated from the world, evil and heretical people, just to complete a witchcraft sacrifice, lewd songs and songs are very emotional. The so-called trend and counter-trend, culture and counter-culture, pagans in the eyes of ordinary people are weird and terrifying, aren't we also creepy people in the mirror...

    Really anti-religious movie, many cult rituals like painting works, group sex, naked women dancing around the fire, dancing across the room, demonic charm, and finally the fire is...

    This piece of goose shows the contest of music. People who can sing "The egg lays the bird, the bird has long hair, the hair has a bed, the bed has a woman, and the woman has a man" is still better than singing "Lord my "Shepherd" should be...

    The works that "Rusty Lake" pays homage directly, the sacrifice of living people, the huge and poetic sacrificial items, the animal headgear and the setting of the desert island are all the same. The whole film has a strange atmosphere that makes people breathless. Horror movies about cults like this always make me feel very scared. This is something that human beings have come up with and can't get through. The more I understand it, the more terrifying it becomes. What is even more terrifying...

    The music and graphics are amazing, psychedelic and eerie aesthetic, compared to last year's "A Midsummer Nightmare" of the same genre, it's really a parody. However, there is a question. There is no freedom of religious belief in the UK. Why do the police attack infidels so...

The Wicker Man quotes

  • Sergeant Howie: Where is Rowan Morrison?

    Lord Summerisle: Sergeant Howie, I think that... you are supposed to be the detective here.

    Sergeant Howie: A child is reported missing on your island. At first, I'm told there is no such child. I-I... I then find that there is, in fact, but she has been killed. I subsequently discover that there is no death certificate. And now I find that there is a grave. There's no body.

    Lord Summerisle: Very perplexing for you. What do you think could have happened?

    Sergeant Howie: I think Rowan Morrison was murdered, under circumstances of Pagan barbarity, which I can scarcely bring myself to believe is taking place in the 20th century. Now, it is my intention tomorrow to return to the mainland and report my suspicions to the chief constable of the West Highland Constabulary. And I will demand a full inquiry takes place into the affairs of this heathen island.

    Lord Summerisle: You must, of course, do as you see fit, Sergeant.

    [ringing a bell]

    Lord Summerisle: Perhaps it's just as well that you won't be here tomorrow to be offended by the sight of our May Day celebrations here.

  • Lord Summerisle: In the last century, the islanders were starving. Like our neighbors today, they were scratching a bare subsistence from sheep and sea. Then in 1868, my grandfather bought this barren island and began to change things. A distinguished Victorian scientist, agronomist, free thinker. How formidably benevolent he seems. Essentially the face of a man incredulous of all human good.

    Sergeant Howie: You're very cynical, my Lord.

    Lord Summerisle: What attracted my grandfather to the island, apart from the profuse source of wiry labor that it promised, was the unique combination of volcanic soil and the warm gulf stream that surrounded it. You see, his experiments had led him to believe that it was possible to induce here the successful growth of certain new strains of fruit that he had developed. So, with typical mid-Victorian zeal, he set to work. The best way of accomplishing this, so it seemed to him, was to rouse the people from their apathy by giving them back their joyous old gods, and it is as a result of this worship the barren island would burgeon and bring forth fruit in great abundance. What he did, of course, was to develop new cultivars of hardy fruits suited to local conditions. But, of course, to begin with, they worked for him because he fed them and clothed them. But then later, when the trees starting fruiting, it became a very different matter, and the ministers fled the island, never to return. What my grandfather had started out of expediency, my father continued out of... love. He brought me up the same way, to reverence the music and the drama and the rituals of the old gods. To love nature and to fear it. And to rely on it and to appease it where necessary. He brought me up...

    Sergeant Howie: He brought you up to be a Pagan!

    Lord Summerisle: A heathen, conceivably, but not, I hope, an unenlightened one.
