In April, Anchor Bay Home Entertainment will bring The Wicker Tree to Blu-ray. Director Robin Hardy's follow-up to his 1973 cult horror classic The Wicker Man watches as increasingly sinister events befall two friends at a secluded religious community.
From Anchor Bay's official synopsis:
"Based on Hardy's acclaimed 2006 novel Cowboys for Christ, The Wicker Tree tells the story of Texas-based singer Beth Boothby (newcomer Brittania Nicol) and her friend Steve Thomson (Henry Garrett, Red Tails), two born-again Christians who come to Scotland to spread the gospel. When their initial efforts are met with disdain and disinterest, they find comfort in an invitation to sing in Tressock, the border fiefdom owned by Sir Lachlan Morrison (Graham McTavish, Rambo). However, Beth's and Steve's message of personal chastity quickly comes into direct conflict with Tressock's sexual and religious practices, drawing upon ancient Celtic beliefs and rituals. Temptations begin to challenge Beth and Steve – with the stakes no less than their very lives and souls. [Christopher] Lee (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy), who played the mysterious Lord Summerisle in the original Wicker Man, returns again in a dramatic cameo."
Anchor Bay's Blu-ray presents the film in its 2.39:1 original aspect ratio with a 5.1 Dolby True HD audio track. The disc also includes a number of bonus supplements, such as:
