In 1973 ‘Don’t Look Now’ and ‘The Wicker Man’ were released in the UK as a double feature, with the cult classic ‘The Wicker Man’ as the supporting picture to the main release of Nicolas Roeg’s ‘Don’t Look Now’.

James (who’s 16) had never seen either of these horror classics before, so we watched them back-to-back (with a 15-minute intermission) and recorded a podcast about the experience. 

Why are there so many parallels between the two films and does watching them as a double bill impact your overall opinion of each?  

Warning: As these films are 50 years old, we talk openly about their twists and key plot points.
