Tedious remake of The Wicker Man

Rating: 1/10 (24 August 2019)

I had heard good things about this but at no point did they say that the movie was an uncredited remake of far superior Wicker Man. Like Darklands this is pointless retread of familiar themes of paganism and renewing the land by the sacrifice of blood.
The Plot.
A really miserable frumpy woman repays the kindness shown by her boyfriend with hate. She is simple and misguided throughout. The best bit of the movie is the guys hanging out at the start. They all chat and say, hey why are you hanging out this that woman, she is miserable and just no fun to be with. Also she does not like sex. So this frumpy woman emotionally bludgeoned her man into taking her on a trip to Sweden. At no point do you understand why he would date her, she is really horrible to him throughout the movie.
They get to Sweden and the place is so boring you would leave immediately. They decide to say on and it is all downhill from there. Also as soon as you see the Pyramid house, you know it is the wicker man.
Thoughts
This like his last movie was a slow predictable movie for people who have not watched the originals. I watched it and thought it would never end. This is the wicker man. Okay they replaced the aforementioned man made from Wicker with a house but the effect was the same. The stupid games that they played on Woodward they play on all the characters. Also there is a switch to the May queen as the final denouement. Apart from that it is basically the same movie. Also there is a couple of bits where they steal scenes from Hershall Gordon Lewis's 2000 Maniacs.
Watch it, if you want to watch a chick flick version of The Wicker Man. If is for the fans (if there are any) of the Neil La Bute Wicker man or the sequel to the original movie The Wicker Tree. Or the Welsh version Darklands.
If you liked the original movie do not bother with this pointless remake.
