The Wicker Man Page #5

...to keep this appointment

with the Wicker Man.

Stay back!

And now the game is over.

The game of the hunter

leading the hunted.

You came to find our little Rowan.

But it is we who have found you,

just as we intended to do.

I don't understand. Rowan was missing.

I had to come. I had a letter.

Willow, tell them.

Willow, please tell them.

The letter was from all of us here.

Your invitation to visit...

...one might say.

You were just the man we needed.

And we were determined to get you here.

Notice how we led you to believe...

...that your daughter would be sacrificed

due to the failure of the crops last year.

But they did fail. I saw the photo.

Yes, they failed, all right.

Disastrously so.

One of the few times

since my ancestors moved here.

But we are always prepared

with a powerful sacrifice.

And that, my friend, is your destiny.

-It is your destiny.

-Back up!

What we require is a stranger,

yet one who is connected to us.

-He's connected to us.

-He's connected to us.

Connected by blood.

Willow.

Why have you done this to me?

We orchestrated all of this

with the greatest care...

...everything that's happened.

Be proud of yourself.

You have done so well.

Yes. My daughter speaks the truth.

Your fate was sealed many years ago

when she chose to be with you.

Your daughter?

Yes. My Willow.

This is a story whose chapters

were carefully written.

You have been chosen

to die a martyr's death.

You will sit beside the gods and goddesses

for all of eternity.

Back up! I swear to God, I will shoot you!

It is a great honor,

one that you cannot refuse.

It is ordained.

There is no way out.

Stay back!

You b*tches!

You b*tches!

This is murder! Murder!

You'll all be guilty!

And you're doing it for nothing!

Killing me won't bring back

your goddamn honey!

But I know it will.

Oh, God.

How can it?

I'm not one of you!

I don't believe in your gods!

I don't believe in sacrifice.

Oh, God.

No, don't-- Don't move me!

What is it? What is it?

What is that? What is that?

What is it?

Oh, no. No, not the bees!

Not the bees!

They're in my eyes! My eyes!

We'll do it your way this time.

I must keep you alive.

Oh, God.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God!

O gods and goddesses of nature.

Receive this sacrifice and be appeased.

Gods and goddesses of nature.

Receive this sacrifice and be appeased.

Rowan.

No. Rowan!

No, Rowan, don't! Put it down! No!

Put it down!

Rowan!

Put it down, honey. Put it down.

Rowan, no! No!

No!

The drone must die!

The drone must die!

The drone must die!

The drone must die!

The drone must die!
