UNCUT | The Wicker Man (1973) Movie Reaction (Patreon)
Content
Hi! I think you'll all enjoy this one as much as I did. 'The Wicker Man' is creepy, very unsettling, but so, so good. Thank you so much for requesting this!
Also, does anyone notice a similarity between this and the later made "Hot Fuzz"? Small town/village that a cop goes to and something weird is happening that turns out to be something sinister. PLUS it also stars Edward Woodward! That could be the reason they chose him, as a nod to this. Edgar Wright loves referencing media he loves.
I've actually just found a interview article with Edgar Wright from 2007 in which this was discussed and he confirms it: https://www.stopsmilingonline.com/story_detail.php?id=801
I don't think many people have seen this, as many places I looked didn't mention this at all.
I'll be filming another segment to cover this, or at least mentioning it through voiceover anyway.
Let me know your thoughts!
