Ritual
David Pinner
Shrouded in the same brand of mystery and contradiction that forms its tangled plot, Ritual, the 1967 debut by David Pinner is commonly recognised by cult cinema fanatics as the original seed that grew into the towering movie enigma The Wicker Man.Set against an enclosed rural Cornish landscape, Ritual follows the trail of English police officer, David Hanlin, who is requested to investigate the murder of a local child. During his short stay, he is slowly subjected to a spectacle of psychological trickery, sexual seduction and ancient religious practices. As he delves deeper into the village’s mysterious way of life he finds himself becoming embroiled and seduced into their bizarre rituals, and starts to feel almost hypnotised by the community. But when another child is murdered he knows he needs to break the spell and find the killer. Pinner's poetic and hallucinatory sequences were transformed into Robin Hardy's 1973 film, The Wicker Man, which has enthralled and inspired generations of British movie patrons and folk-pop enthusiasts throughout the world.
