I don't care how cliched this may seem, but see the original first.

Watching the remake was like having my toes bitten off by rats.....why the hell did I bother?

Not seen this reincarnation of 'The Wicker Man', but if it's anything like the hollywood remake of 'Get Carter' I won't be giving it the time of day.

Hollywood has a habit of ruining great British films with tacky remakes.

Absolutely right, Konovalov. Money, glamour and high tech isn't everything...

All above are correct. Edward Woodward was better, and there is only one Christopher Lee.

The Cage-involved remake of Gone In 60 Seconds was also a travesty.
