The Wicker Man (1973)
Overrated as a horror film/thriller (the chills are confined mainly to the final ten minutes and you can see 'em coming with Coke-bottle glasses), but undervalued and indeed quite successful as a sly, blackly comic satire on fanaticism. Also, Christopher Lee is supercool; also, Britt Ekland is superhot.
Grade: B
