It is time to keep your appointment with The Wicker Man from 1973. Any maypole is a goal as Queer as Folk Horror month continues with this classic film, notably not with Nicolas Cage, directed by Robin Hardy. Beatles are on threads, there are wild music cues, and it is all kinds of sexy up in here!
Practice your choppy choppy dance!
