I don't want to get controversial here, but the redux doesn't fare THAT bad with non-British audiences, who for the most part didn't even know that the original "Wicker Man" movie existed.
I DO however understand your pain, though I've heard a couple of movie-lines far worse than the "bike" bit in my film watching lifetime.
BTW: I didn't even know that a "House on Sorority Row" remake was on its way...

As far as I'm concerned, why not? I'm always a sucker for the good, ol' slasher routine
