How is Wicker Man (1973) a horror movie? I’m 30 minutes in and nothing even remotely scary has happened. It’s like a British folk revival musical
Keep pretending and you'll end up stuck that way.
>>215034719They also found the silly walking man the funniest thing ever so there's that.
the scene where Cage gets bees dumped on his head is peak terror.
>>215034719jej
>>215034719It's about secret societies hiding in plain sight, Folk Horror.
>>215034719Because you're a zoomer so desensitized to everything your dick don't even work anymore.
>>215034719oi, you got a loicense for that virgin sacrifice?
>>215034719>It’s like a British folk revival musicalAnd That's a Good Thing
>>215034832I’ve seen horror movies meant to be scary but where the scares didn’t work. In this case, it’s simply a lack of scares. No attempts at scares are made.
>>215034913Maybe it’s good, but it’s not a horror movie.To be a horror movie, you need at least one scare.
You have to be a spiritual person to be scared of a movie wherein somebody's spirituality is being attacked. This type of person was much more common when the film was made. Now far more people will find themselves on the pagan's side than the Christian cop's.
>>215034719I only seen the Nic Cage remake and only remembering him punching an old lady, 'NOT THE BEES' and the ending. The ending was kinda scary to a degree i think
Over one hour in, we have a scare: they put a creepy burning severed hand in his bed to make him sleep for days. He woke up and pushed it off his bed though. Still, hand was creepy
Looked like the pagans decapitated someone, but it was an immediate fakeout.
>>215035229You're a retard
>>215034963>pausing a movie 30 minutes in to shitpost on /tv/ laterally kill thyself
>>215035276>bro you have to find this movie scary because it’s old bro, it’s a classic that means it’s goodThe Exorcist aged well, this movie did not
>>215035290I didn’t pause it
>I’m 30 minutes inyou have to watch it all the way through
Them dragging him to the wicker man as he screams “oh God, Jesus Christ” is alright as far as scares go. Them cheerily singing Sumer is Icumin In while he burns is darkly funny.I still don’t think you can call a movie a horror movie if it’s ninety minutes long and only the last five minutes are scary. I made a 31 movie list for October, a mix of Halloween movies I’ve seen and ones I’ve been meaning to see, and this one is definitely the worst so far. Of course, we’re only five days in
>>215034760Fucking retard
>>215034719I know it is classified as folk horror, but part of me thinks horror is maybe misleading, at last how people generally think of it. It is more of a mystery that is trying to create this unnerving atmosphere, with even certain undertone of comedy.
To me it's more of a mystery movie with a scary ending which makes the whole movie scarier in retrospect. Since everyone is used to atheist non-white societies now the movie doesn't seem strange or otherworldly anymore kek.
the kids have never heard of Jesus. they just learn about Christianity as a 'comparative' religion. they will not be saved.that's a horrifying idea if you're not a psychopath.
the film is less than 90 minutes long. you couldn't finish it, first...?
>>215035515It’s finished now
>>215035408If you want the same idea executed with more horror/action without turning into slop then I highly suggest the movie Apostle from a few years back.
>>215035408Fuck your lame review man, post the list!
faggot monitors his thread to post useless replies. fuck u kill yourself
