Boots To ReBoots: The Wicker Man Review

[@winter5361]

Man. I hate youtube's shitty promotional system. I only happened to stumble across you because I didn't want to watch the evil dead re make, so I looked for a review. And your videos deserve way more attention than they're getting.

As do I!

As do I still to this day Oct 9 2020. Watched his videos back 6 years ago. Glad he came back sometimes guys like Andy being a very humble person don't relieze what their content does to help a person. Cause of Andy I discovered the vast amounts of other HORROR channel's out there. Fanboy Flicks another channel I love,it lead me to Andy cause that's where I saw the recommend box.

The kids were doing their best, but WOW...I didn't feel sorry for those two at all! Aside from a Boots to Reboots episode, he should also cover all of the sequels! He should do that for EVERY franchise!

[@cruddddddddddddddd]

JEM ofthe80s Night Shift is an incredible book. Some of the best horror shorts imo. I really enjoy the Jerusalem’s Lot and Sometimes They Come Back stories. And, yeah, the Children of the Corn remake is trash

The Sneaker Pimps did a truly amazing cover of the song Willow sings nude in the original, I believe it's called "How Do?" from their album titled Becoming X.

[@shadowman2192]

I saw The Wicker Man remake at the theater. I regret nothing.

[@johnashley327]

Step away from the bike. 😂

[@sharonpopolow6874]

When I first watched The Wickerman about 12 years ago, I hated the music, thinking it was corny and whack AF! I also had a very narrow view of music at the time, listening mostly to hip hop, techno dance, metal and metal fusions, and some punk/goth. I last watched The Wickerman less than a year ago after I started turning middle-aged and my music tastes reflect aging, meaning I'm mellowing out and respect/embrace more folksy type music now. So, yeah, I can appreciate the music more now than when I was in my late 30s. Take note, the music while not necessary, plays a role in the Pagan culture of Summer Isle. These people have built a community of a nature based religion (kind of like Wicca), and the music shows Pagan embrace of concepts of the cycle of life, balance (think yin-yang, only Westernized), agriculture, and sexuality/procreation (sexuality is more heavily emphasized in Pagan religions than Abrahamic religions). For the record, I'm not Pagan. I'm agnostic. But that doesn't mean I don't find history and culture not my own fascinating.

Hi, lady in the photo You picked for Leelee Sobieski is actually actress Helen Hunt

[@evanperough2385]

the intro sequence to the “hello welcome to...” with the soft piano music in the background is the most beautifully hilarious thing i’ve ever seen

[@alex_harnar_618]

(15:44) “They picked him because of his blood link to the island.” “So why not use one of those other men on the island?” Well, they don’t have the same blood link as Edward does. Also Sister Summersisle mentions, “We offer a stranger, yet one who is connected to us.” I guess the other men on the island live on the island, so they aren’t strangers, so it makes Edwards blood connection to the island more special.

[@maxmatson1578]

That one song they play in the beginning of the original. I like the cover that "Sneaker Pimps" did called "How do".

I actually watched this movie not too long ago, and I laughed my ass off the whole way through. I've seen episodes of SpongeBob and even Teen Titans Go (me puking off screen) that were more disturbing and scary than this. Amazing review by the way Andy. This one is probably my favorite.

[@WinterSteele]

I love both versions of "Wicker Man." The original because it's legitimately a damn good film, and the remake because it's fucking hilarious. I derive equal, but different, enjoyment from both. Out of curiosity, what did you think of the semi-sequel/companion to the original, "Wicker Tree?"

[@StitchedTogetherPictures]

I actually haven't seen The Wicker Tree yet.

[@vanyadolly]

Same. Two of my favourite movies for very different reasons.

@Thomas Shelton That's what makes it hilarious! The poor guy who wrote the remake must be afraid to leave his home because of all the wimmen.

[@kazinadbiralamadit6905]

[@carlossaraiva8213]

In the remake i think part of the comedy is intentional, but only half of it, the other half is unintentional for its sheer ridiculousness. Though to this day i still laugh at Cage socking Sister "Bitch". 😂

[@doktor_ghul]

Out of all the bad remakes you've booted, this one is the one I'm most grateful for. The original Wicker Man is one of my favorite films, and not just because I'm a pagan who would have been happily singing along with the rest of the Summerisle islanders as they send the Xtian cop up in smoke. I was given the remake as an Xmess present, and after one watching, I took my boot to the DVD. Nice to see I'm not the only one who did that.

That instrument is called "scacciapensieri" and it's typical of Sicily region, in south Italy. Peculiar, since the movie takes place in the States

[@ЄвгенКорякін]

It's also known as Jew's harp, which actually originated in Asia. It is very wide-spread, and very popular among folk musicians and hippie-leaning people. Heard it a ton at various folk festivals and other weird gatherings, and thought that it fit very well in the film.

I remember when I saw the remake I didn't know there was an original. The way they marketed it made it so confusing when I saw the movie, I can't remember exactly but I thought it was about ghosts or something, the whole movie I was like wtf is this...

[@Madmax-rz5hz]

Wait, the island is tiny, population can't be more than a couple of hundred. How could you lose a whole daughter, and how could someone who's never been to the island have more chance of finding her than a local?

[@carlossaraiva8213]

He cant. That's the whole point of the myftery plot and also serves to unnerve the viewer that something not right is happening there and to distrust the islanders. The original movie did that very well for that purpose but in the remake it all becomes farcical.

[@ArtyoumPlays]

Tbh, the goofy music elevated the children singing along with Randy, there. Not only are these completely unhinged sociopaths alien to humanity as a whole, but they were born and raised to be that way to the point where we think of them as comical. The real horror comes from the alien culture refusing to assimilate, not because they're of malicious intent (they see themselves as doing the right by killing Edward as a sacrifice), but simply because they wish to preserve their culture in peace and live in harmony. Terrifying.

The music in the original helped to solidify the culture and the beliefs of the people of Summerisle for me. A staple of a culture is the music. It’s usually Music, Language, and Beliefs. Art and Cuisine come later. So the fact that Summerisle had its own plethora of songs demonstrated just how ingrained their culture is. It’s been there for a long time

[@mamasaidno1749]

"If you're female, you're now pregnant." I lost it!

[@venomnbk3326]

What song plays when you bring out the boot?

[@g.b569]

Recently, I recognize two actors from A Series of Unfortunate Events, Jacqueline and Joyce Robbins, twins in this movie. They claimed that the mood on the set of this movie was very relaxed. Apparently their makeup artist was going from this movie to X-Men and back, saying this movie had a very chill atmosphere. Additionally, Nicholas Cage's wife was pregnant at the time and the actor joked that he hadn't been around so much estrogen in his life. I guess that's something positive for the crummy movie that it was

[@MamaMOB]

It’s 100% the CGI guys fault for not putting bees on his eyes with Nicolas Cage said “My eyes! My eyes!”

[@shadowking9739]

I think one of the worst aspects of the remake is the overall presentation of the Pagan colony. In the original, they were presented as having strange beliefs but were otherwise normal, happy people on a sunny, beautiful island. The juxtaposition of the bright colors, cheerful inhabitants, and merry music to the townfolk's suspicious behavior and the missing girl's plight really created a sense of underlying dread. The remake, however, tries way too hard to be scary and off-putting.

I have this film, but, so far, I've never been bored enough to watch it. I've been really bored, but never THAT bored and, after watching your vid, I don't think I ever will be. WTF honey crop failed? two reasons: failure of nectar-producing crops reducing available supplies or hive infestation decreasing bee numbers. how is either going to be cured by murder? [I know, apples won't grow because a man's been killed, either, but at least that's a single annual event; flowers grow over a season and honey is produced over a season] Another tie-in to the original: Malus is the Latin word for apple
