"Blood on Satan's Claw" wins hands down for me on this one. It's disturbing, sexy and weird. I groove on the whole wyrd England vibe of the film. For me, it's far more folky and pagan than "The Wicker Man" which I always watch from a Christian point of view. There is something very much of the soil and earth in BOSC, that for me makes it both almost mythic and very real at the same time.

I also like it's anti youth point of view which is similar in tone to the underlying theme of "Psychomania" where by the young people must be suppressed at all costs or society as we know it will will be over turned. The irony being that both films are obviously aimed at the very people they ultimately fear.
