1. Woodward or Cage?
HUGE difference

2. You've got that right.
Only recently saw the Cage version. Sad.

6. There is one big thing that the Cage version has in its favor.

7. Well how about the Britt Ekland (body double) dance
To try and entice Woodward off the straight and narrow?

10. I'd trade that whole scene away...
Edited on Sat Oct-17-09 08:58 PM by LostInAnomie
... just to watch Leelee push her straightened blond hair back behind her ear once. Leelee is an angel.

17. No way. Nude 70s dancing is awesome. It's a must for all the great films.

3. I love Edward Woodward.
Breaker Morant is one of my favorite movies.
But I couldn't BEAR Wicker Man. I am squeamish and the ending really bothered me. (Because, as I said, I love Edward Woodward.)

4. I know, it's a real kick in the gut
Brilliant ending, though, when the Wicker Man's head droops as the sun sets. Absolutely brilliant.

9. I never did see the Cage version. I figure...why mess up a good thing?
the original is spooky enough and Cage sucks anyway. except for, maybe, 3 movies.

16. I've never seen the movie, but back when I still had cable
I saw a compilation program called something like "The Scariest Horror Movie Scenes of All Time."

In several cases, they showed the ENDINGS, complete spoilers, like the last scene of Wicker Man.

18. Original was great.
I've only seen clips of the remake and I think I'll pass.

NOT THE BEES!!!
