This week on Prime Cuts, we take a trip to Summerisle for a deep dive into the sun-drenched dread of The Wicker Man (1973). From rigid righteousness to ritual sacrifice, we explore how Sergeant Howie’s doomed investigation unfolds amidst maypoles, masks, and eerily cheerful folk songs. We’re talking pagan pageantry, sexual tension in graveyards, and yes—corn rigs and barley rigs aplenty. It’s a slow burn that ends in flames, and we’re here for every chilling second of it.
