SHOWNOTES: It's Cagin' time on Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast, as we continue Bad Movie December with a look at Neil LaBute's 2006 remake of The Wicker Man, starring none other than the One True God Himself: Nicolas Fucking Cage. This reimagining of the original 1973 horror film (itself an adaptation of the 1967 horror novel Ritual) manages to be batshit in completely different ways than its source material(s) and also (un)intentionally hysterical, in no small part due to Nic Cage's classic over-the-top performance working harmoniously with a hilariously inept script. Being our very first Cage review on the podcast, how does it rank amongst the legendary 60-year-old actor/producer's filmography as well as "so bad it's good" cinema? Find out now, and stay tuned for our January content, including a two-part analysis of the Indiana Jones Trilogy and more!
