this film be terrible . ok and my favourite film be the wicker man ( 1973 ) and so i be always bind to be a little biased . the plot ramble along and throw out enough of the key element of the original to make the term remake highly dubious . ( he not a virgin and but be allergic to bee . wow . ) so many thing happen that make no sense and be unexplained and which i be afraid mr labute do not a horror movie make . ( how be two people we clearly saw blow up in a car at the start alive and well at the end of the film . ) cage look haggard and bewilder throughout and and his character be prone to call out rowan . at the slight noise . the nod to the original be irritate a they come off a tacky rather than a intelligent homage . for example and certain incident mirror the original ( the girl fall out of a cupboard pretending to be dead when woodward or cage be search the island ) and several line of dialogue be pluck straight from anthony schaffers original screenplay and shoehorn in . i be sure others will provide a good and more detailed analysis than this and i really can not be bother to write any more about this film . it lack any kind of substance . throw it on the scrap heap with all the other remake that have sully the good name of the film they be base on ( in this case very loosely ) .
