I hated the film. As a Scot myself, there's nothing worse than cod Scottish regional accents by imported actors. Fake Celticism, laughably bad hair on Christopher Lee, dire out of place music, dire location choices, holey plot, bad psuedo porn scenes, wooden acting.. yet rated a cult cinema classic!   Scottish singer Fiona Kennedy made a bit part appearance as a schoolgirl.. I wonder what her father Calum thought of it at the time? One classic scene though when the Wicker Man falls burning to the ground revealing the sun.. but generally a crock of crud. Just one Scot's opinion, but plenty of others have loved it and always will.
