Hosted by Andrew Quinn and Darren Mooney, and this week with special guest Doctor Bernice Murphy, The 250 is a (mostly) weekly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released every Saturday at 6pm GMT. This week and next week, we are taking a break from our Summer of Scorsese for a Halloween treat. Neil La Bute's The Wicker Man. After a traumatic accident on a desert highway, highway patrolman Edward Malus is contacted by his old fiancée. She is living on a remote matriarchal community known as Summersisle, and her daughter has gone missing.

Happy Friday, Dreadfuls! Ry and I left the comforts of home to explore the strange and curious lands under the stewardship of one they call Summersisle. That's right - this week we are reviewing both the 1973 and 2006 versions of the folk horror classic, The Wicker Man. Stick around - we have an appointment to keep with the Wicker Man. Enjoy! And don't forget.... STAY DREADFUL!
Completing the Cage trifecta, take a journey with Zach, Amin and Mayes to SummersIsle, but don't expect any of that signature Royal Honey because last year's harvest was a disaster. This island in the puget sound is full of creepy silent men, chanting female twins, ominous bee keeping outfits and jarred fetii, but this film comes down to one crucial editing mistake.

This week we’re going on a wild goose chase to a creepy beekeeper island that is predominantly populated by women in the 2006 remake of The Wicker Man. This movie stars the amazingly fun Nicolas Cage as a California motorcycle cop that is asked to help his ex-fiancee find her missing daughter. He travels to a remote island in the state of Washington named Summersisle only to find that the inhabitants are unwelcoming and unwilling to help. With each turn the story takes he seems further and further away from ever finding the missing girl or the truth about what is going on. By the time he realizes the women’s true plan for him, it is too late to save himself from...The Wicker Man. Is this the most convoluted plan ever? What’s with the pills Nic Cage keeps downing? Why would you go to an island of beekeepers if you are deathly allergic to bee stings? Why does he think that being a California police officer gives him the jurisdiction to do anything he wants without evidence or a warrant? Why doesn’t he ever ask an follow up questions? This movie isn’t that great but Cage’s performance makes it a so-bad-it’s-good masterpiece. Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us. Please rate and review the podcast wherever you get it and if you like the show, share it with your friends. Have a great week.
Chris and Sean near the end of their Nicolas Cage retrospective with the film that made Nic Cage a YouTube sensation the world over The Wicker Man (2006). Nic Cage is Edward Malus, a sheriff tasked with finding his missing daughter on the mysterious island of Summersisle. He discovers not all is as it seems and must don a bear suit and punch women to suss out the truth behind the pagan society. It's as out of control a performance as we've seen from Nic Cage this month, and it may be his most memorable performance to date.As always, you can follow Chris Stachiw on Twitter at @KultureStach, Sean Liang at @Seannifer and Kulture Shocked at @KultureShocked.

Nic Cage delivers one of the finest bad performances of all time in a movie whose plot isn't even a thing (bee crops?) all for the sake of the dumbest evil plan of all time. The Wicker Man serves as a shining example of why we do what we do, to find these movies that are so over the top awesome that you can't help but love them despite how terrible they are. Nic Cage plays a California highway patrol man/super detective who gets imformed that his ex-fiancee's daughter is missing and that he must come to the island of Summersisle in Washington to find her. Little does he know that this island has many many mysteries. He ends up being the focal point in a plot to restore the islands unsuccessful honey crop (because they angered the bee gods or something) and so now the island needs a sacrifice to restore their ability to grow honey....uh what? There are so many epic moments of sheer stupidity and horrible dialogue with even worse delivery that this movie is a complete must see for every bad movie lover out there.
