SWAPCAST - The Wicker Man (1973/2006) - Bees, Bizarre Cults, and Bad Acting

On this wild anniversary episode, the Grindhouse Girls team up with The Cinedicate for a deep dive into the infamously off-the-rails 2006 remake of The Wicker Man. From “not the bees!”, bear costumes, a and punch-happy Nicolas Cage, we dissect everything that makes this cult failure so bizarrely watchable (or not). Along the way, expect hilarious tangents on gender in horror, Neil LaBute’s problematic writing, and why the original Wicker Man remains untouchable. Come for the memes, stay for the incisive film analysis—and discover why sometimes it’s best to leave a classic alone.


What to expect from the episode:

  • An irreverent deep dive into both the original 1973 Wicker Man and its infamous 2006 Nicolas Cage remake, with discussions on cult cinema, gender dynamics, and themes of religion vs. paganism
  • Lively critiques of Neil LaBute’s direction and writing, exploring his controversial reputation, handling of misogyny, and how the remake diverges (and spectacularly misses the point) from the original’s folk horror brilliance
  • Entertaining banter about Nicolas Cage’s meme-worthy performance, the most (in)famous scenes (“not the bees!”), and the joys and pains of bad movies, plus thoughtful rants on cults, horror tropes, and recommendations for folk horror fans
