Two weekends ago we drank a bit too much during our Easter lunch and decided, hey let's watch that craptabulous Wicker Man remake that the Flak Radio guys assured us was hilarious. Directed by Neil LaBute, the homeless man's David Mamet, and starring Nic Cage in full-on "I want to be my generation's Shatner" mode, the movie is certainly terrible. As expected, it had absolutely nothing to do with the original, which at least had the decency to feature gratuitous nudity. Unfortunately it wasn't insane enough or hammy enough. Mostly it was just dull. Even worse the version we saw On Demand was missing the key "ARRRGH!!! THE BEES!!!" scene that sold us on the movie in the first place.
What we should have done is watch the two-minute version. This covers every interesting scene in the movie. The bee helmet scene is definitely worth the two minute investment.
