Wicker Man
I watched Nicholas Cage in the Wicker Man the other day. The 2006 British horror movie was stupid, poorly acted, and IMO a waste of good time to sit through, not to mention a reduculous plot.

If you go back to our nominations for worst movie ever made, Wickerman is what I nominated. In fact I also nominate Cage as the worst actor I have ever seen for his entire body of work.

Jim.......The one Nicholas Cage flick I enjoyed was "Gone In 60 Seconds". Again, the depth of Cage's acting ability is less than bird bath deep, but the action and the cars were fun to see. The final car jump on the bridge was completely rediculous, but I still found the movie fun to watch.

Original version of Wicker Man was much better, actually is worth watching, especially the Britt Ekland dance and the celibate constables (Edward Woodward) reaction.
1975 version is ***1/2 star (3 1/2) 2006 version got a woof! (0) from VideoHound 2009

Terry.......I saw there was an older version of Wicker Man, but the 2006 version was so bad, I did not give the older movie a seconds thought. Might have to check it out.

Make sure you get the unrated extended version, the 99 minute one is close to an X rating !! , well worth the hunt.
Mine came in a numbered wood box 40426/50000.

The Cage version should get a wood box, called a coffin.
