Duration94min.

Part of the special series NACHTBLENDE

Granted, Robin Hardy's folk horror classic would fit better into springtime. But you should celebrate the festivals as they fall and the third program of the Night Fade celebrates the year 1973. In a double feature with DON'T LOOK NOW THE WICKER MAN opens the program THROW BACK 1973 and of course we show the film in the brand(!) new 4K version.

Policeman Neil Howie (Edward Woodward) is supposed to investigate the disappearance of a girl on Summerisle Island. Easier said than done. The devout Christian not only has to deal with very un-Christian residents and their wise lord (Christopher Lee). They also claim not to know the child at all... or that it is dead. Anyway, people should really be interested only in this strange festival, which is in preparation...
