THE WICKER MAN - a remake to avoid

Well, I use the term pretty broadly. Such that it includes things like The Village of the Damned or The Bad Seed. Supernatural suspense thrillers and whatnot (or films that want you to think supernatural suspense even if it turns out not). Scary movies never scare me and supernatural suspense movies almost never suspend me. So I have a limited history with them.

I was just looking around at some lists of "top 100 horror films" and see that such things tend to define it pretty broadly and The Wicker Man is frequently categorized as horror.

But it's not important. I'm probably not going to see the new version now (when I go to the drive-in I only watch movies I would otherwise never see in the theater since the picture quality and sound tend to suck, so The Wicker Man was a good candidate) and unless someone else is watching I'm probably not going to see the old version.
