Episode 068 - The Wicker Man (1973)

Scott's choice of movie this week as he and Charlie take a look at The Wicker Man from 1973.

Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward) arrives on the small Scottish island of Summerisle to investigate the report of a missing child. A conservative Christian, the policeman observes the residents' frivolous sexual displays and strange pagan rituals, particularly the temptations of Willow (Britt Ekland), daughter of the island magistrate, Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee). The more Sergeant Howie learns about the islanders' strange practices, the closer he gets to tracking down the missing child.

Huge thanks to Tom from Anywhere But Here Podcast, Mark from The Good The Bad and The Odd Podcast and Andrew from Weekly Geek Speak for their comments and thoughts on the movie.

Scott also takes one for the team and watches the 2006 remake starring Nicolas Cage.
