Wicker Man Basket-Case

I see that the remake of The Wicker Man is opening without a previewing. This is generally done for one of two reasons: a) There is a major surprise that the studio does not want spoiled or b) the film stinks so badly that they want to keep the cover on the dish as long as possible in hopes of getting at least one good weekend in before word spreads.

Usually, it's the latter; in which case we can only hope that this... thing will quietly disappear into whatever land where old copies of Johnny Mnemonic dwell.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
