@nickthelick It's actually THE oldest known song in the English language.

Summer is a cumen in is one of the oldest songs still around apparently... So I read...

Hands down, the scariest and most disturbing film that I've ever seen in my life. Not for edge of your seat frights as there aren't any, but just for the shock value and the wierdness of the people of summerisle and the music accentuates that atmosphere perfectly.
-
I never really liked the movie until someone showed me the musical aspect of it. There's something that feels so fun and enlightening about Pagan and Wiccan folk music.
-
well there is evidence that pagans within the british isles participated in these kinds of rituals. neo-pagans don't, therefore they're in a completely different category to those the film is based on. would you not call these kind of rituals negative?
-
@NormbrettaMod Sorry I forgot for a moment that Paganism actually refers to a variety of religions but in either case I was thinking along the lines of the British/European forms of Paganism (the kinds that Neo-Paganism tends to be based on).
-
one form of paganism. you do realise paganism isn't one religion don't you? you could say its depicting religion as a whole in a negative way...
-
It's strange that a film that ultimately depicts Pagans in a negative light is such a hit with the pagan community. Not to take anything away from this classic of course.
Me again-i love the play this while walking through desolate countryside as the sun shines brightly :-)
