The Wicker Man is Finally Coming to 4K with a Gorgeous Steelbook this October

After years of pleading and hoping, the cult classic film The Wicker Man is receiving a 4K steelbook release this October!

The cult horror masterpiece, The Wicker Man, arrives on a SteelBook® in 4K Ultra HD™ (+ Blu-ray™ + Digital) on October 17, 2023 from Lionsgate. Directed by Robin Hardy (The Fantasist), the film follows Police Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward, TV’s “The Equalizer”), as he investigates Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee, Star Wars; Episode II) and his secretive pagan society.

When a young girl mysteriously vanishes, Police Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward) travels to a remote Scottish island to investigate. But the seemingly quiet community is not as it appears, as the detective uncovers a secretive pagan society led by the strange Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee). While the townsfolk tempt and threaten him with bizarre rituals and wanton lust, Howie must race to discover the truth behind the girl’s disappearance before his clash with Lord Summerisle builds to a terrifying conclusion – one that has cemented this cult shocker as a modern horror masterpiece.
