Description
If you need to get away from it all… Summerisle is waiting.
This week on SlashBack Cinema, we head back to 1973 to break down The Wicker Man a folk horror classic that trades jump scares for slow-building dread… and delivers one of the most unforgettable endings in horror history.
What starts as a simple missing person case quickly turns into something far more unsettling, as a devout Christian police officer finds himself trapped in a world of pagan rituals, strange traditions, and a community that’s hiding something big.
Spoilers ahead and trust us, this is one you’ll want to hear.
