Shocks are so much better absorbed with the knees bent
The Wicker Man (1973)
Police sergeant Howie is sent to Summerisle, a Scottish island village to investigate the disappearance of a young girl whom the townsfolk claim never existed. He discovers that the locals are weird and unhelpful, and becomes determined to get to the bottom of it. Stranger still are the rites that take place there.
