If it's any help, Alex, there's nothing supernatural about The Wicker Man. I hope it ends up in your netflix queue someday. It's unique and worthwhile.
Another note on this new one. If you've seen the previews, you know that this version adds a car/truck crash sequence, one completely foreign to the original, and which I spent this whole movie wondering how it would tie in. I will only say that as a plot thread, it ended up making no sense whatsoever! The occupants of that crash mysteriously disappear from the wreck and turn up much later in the proceedings with no explanation of how they managed it. What's more, I don't think anyone in the audience wondered about this unexplained point or even cared, it was so irrelevant.
