In the 2006 "Wicker Man" film, imagine a world where Nicolas Cage's facial expressions have more twists and turns than the convoluted plot itself. Picture Cage, clad in a bear costume and perpetually confused expression, stumbling through a remote island community where the locals seem to have a PhD in creepy rituals and questionable folk songs. As he investigates a missing girl, Cage's character finds himself tangled in a web of increasingly bizarre situations, culminating in a finale so absurdly unforgettable that you'll never look at bees the same way again. It's a cinematic rollercoaster where the only thing scarier than the titular wicker man itself is trying to figure out if Cage's performance is intentionally hilarious or accidentally brilliant.
