Rated 5 out of 5 stars
It's time to keep your appt with the wickerman
I don't have a lot of physical movies in my collection.
But this one is a must!
Even though this is called the "final" cut, I'd have to say no. On the plus side (and it's a very big plus), this disk is subtitled not captioned--a very real consideration when you're hard of hearing and your Samsung TV doesn't support captioning. That being said, however, the Anchor Bay wooden box release with a CD of the soundtrack that came out maybe 20 years ago is, to me, the definitive version. Even though it's captioned, it's longer than the final cut. I can't tell you what the difference is, but the Blu-ray just doesn't feel, well, right. Still, this is an important film and it's good to have it on Blu-ray. If you don't know the movie, you could do worse than getting this edition.
its been a movie I've always seen online as a must see. I walked by it in the store and finally decided to grab it and wasn't disappointed. The classics are classics for a reason. Grab it and enjoy!
