The Wicker Man (The One Where Nicolas Cage Gets Stung by Bees)
Manage episode 513599786 series 3687552
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron get lost on Summer’s Isle with The Wicker Man (2006), Nicolas Cage’s legendary descent into bee-filled chaos. Part horror remake, part unintentional comedy, it’s a movie that wants to say something about faith, feminism, and honey production—and somehow fails at all three.
From a rocking California Highway Patrol outfit to Cage screaming “Not the bees!”, the guys break down every bizarre creative choice. They debate why the island’s women talk in riddles, how you pack for an investigation at a remote island, and the logic of using a bear costume to go incognito.
Grab your mead, and join the hosts as they laugh their way through one of the strangest horror remakes ever made. Because if The Wicker Man taught us anything, it’s that not every Nicolas Cage movie deserves a cult following.
