Prime Video is losing one of the best dark thriller movies ever — and it's 91% on Rotten Tomatoes

Edward Woodward as Sergeant Howie in "The Wicker Man" (1973).

We’re approaching Halloween season, so what better time to watch some unsettling classics that will get under your skin? If you’re a fan of chilling, atmospheric thrillers like me, then there’s one movie you really don’t want to miss, and that’s "The Wicker Man". This absolute classic is currently available on Prime Video, but it won’t be around for much longer. 

Directed by Robin Hardy, "The Wicker Man" follows a skeptical police officer investigating the disappearance of a young girl on a small Scottish island. However, he soon learns that the residents participate in strange pagan rituals. Even though it’s not a recent release (in fact, it’s over 50 years old), the psychological tension and pagan folklore really set it apart in its genre.
