while as he had been trade and hurt numerous times by Willow in the past but still he decides to assist her in finding her daughter the very next day Edward boards a seaplane Ahoy there he says to the captain like a jackass he travels to an island off the coast of Washington state where Willow resides the island appears to be inhabited by a group of neo-pagans led by an elderly woman named sister summersile whom the residents worship as a goddess the village is predominantly populated by women and men are treated as slaves Edward is dropped
off at the coast from where he begins walking toward the village along the way he encounters a group of villagers to whom he inquires about Rowan but they evade his questions he also notices two women carrying a large bag with blood-like liquid dripping from it he asks them about the same but in response they only make fun of him after a while of walking Edward arrives at a rural Motel where he declares himself as a police officer and announces that he is here to investigate the missing child case in the midst of this Edward kills
a b on the table causing everyone to stare at him with anger little does he know that bee honey is the main exporter product of the village so the villagers perform a fertility ritual every year for growing crops and honey shortly after Willow enters the motel and shows him to his room later that day Edward and Willow have a secret meeting in the woods she expresses her gratitude to Edward for agreeing to help and warns him that the villagers will attempt to deceive him she then requests him to have faith in her because she is
confident that Rowan is captured and hidden somewhere in the villa after hearing all this Edward assures her that he will do everything in his power to locate her daughter the same night while Edward is asleep he is a dream involving the girl from the previous accident this jolts him awake prompting him to take his medication at that moment he notices a girl who resembles Rowan running outside the motel Edward quickly rushes out and follows her to a barn inside he searches the entire Place thoroughly but only finds the girl's Red Jacket while on his quest
he steps on a weak wooden plank which causes him to almost fall into the basement he's dangling like the following day Edward visits the Village School where he meets a teacher named Sister Rose who is in the middle of a class he interrupts the class and inquires about Rowan however everyone feigns ignorance regarding her whereabouts suspecting that they are hiding something Edward retrieves the class register without sister Rose's permission and examines the student names to his surprise he discovers Rowan's name crossed out Edward opens a desk to see if she's inside but a bird pops
out and Edward goes hey in response Sister Rose insists on speaking with Edward outside after a brief conversation about the islander's perspective on death she reveals that Rowan is no longer alive Edward asks about the cause of her death and Rose replies she'll burn to death when Edward catches the tents she used Rose quickly corrects herself by saying she burned to death in addition she informs Edward that the child has been buried in the churchyard in the next scene Edward makes his way to the churchyard where he is approached by Willow she asserts with conviction
that Rowan is still alive and the villagers under sister Summer's isle's command have taken her away and are trying to harm her in a shocking turn of events willow also reveals that Rowan's biological father is none other than Edward um Dad what do you mean what do you mean after this she leads him to Rowan's room recounting the last time she saw her daughter at her study desk on that fateful day Willow had stepped out for a mere half hour and by the time she returned Rowan as well as all her belongings were mysteriously gone
Edward inquires if there are any other photographs of the child but Willow responds in the negative shortly after as Edward is investigating the room he hears the sound of a seaplane prompting him to hurry outside in hopes of using its radio to contact his colleagues in Seattle for assistance beside the seaplane Edward calls out to the pilot but his calls go unanswered at the same time he spots the lifeless body of a young girl floating in the water believing it to be Rowan he impulsively Dives in and retrieves the body however in a sudden Moment
of clarity he realizes it was a hallucination Edward then realizes that he has forgotten to take his medication so he swiftly retrieves the bottle from his pocket and consumes it following this he swims towards the seaplane to access its radio only to discover that it is not functioning as Edward returns empty-handed he comes across the house of Dr T H Moss a physician and photographer in the village he knocks on the door hoping to find a picture of the missing child however just like the others Dr Moss pretends to know nothing about it Edward who
is well aware of the deception acts as if he is leaving but instead conceals himself behind a bush outside after a short while two women wearing face masks arrive at Dr Moss's door and take him along with them once they depart Edward breaks into the house and thoroughly searches every room during his exploration he uncovers evidence of a ritual involving Human Sacrifice which the villagers appear to believe in on investigating further Edward finds several glass beakers containing male human embryos shocked and Confused Edward goes to Willow and inquires about the ritual but even she lacks
sufficient knowledge about it with this Edward decides to visit the senior most person on the island sister Summer's Isle as he makes his way towards her he comes across some men loading wood onto a cart Edward generously lends a hand and attempts to strike up a conversation but the men don't utter a word seems that they are forbidden from engaging in any conversation as a pair of masked women vigilantly monitor their every move undeterred Edward continues on his journey lost in his own thoughts these women are crazy however his preoccupation leads to an unfortunate mishap
as he accidentally collides with one of the beehives in the vicinity instantly a swarm of angry bees surrounds him Edward attempts to run away from them but only ends up tumbling down a steep hill knocking himself out after some time he opens his eyes and realizes that he is now in Sister summersile's place he then finally meets with her in the garden and begins to question her about the events happening in the village sister summerzial explains to Edward that her ancestors fled England to escape persecution and then settled on this island she also states that
their population is predominantly female as they chose the strongest stock the Island's economy relies on the production of local honey but Edward learns that its production is recently declined out of the blue he asks if they have murdered Rowan to which she responds that they don't murder anyone but sacrifice them to the gods this angers Edward who argues that human sacrifice is also a form of murder in order to confirm whether the missing kid is truly dead Edward decides to exhume the grave as he does so he surprisingly discovers that the coffin contains only a
burnt doll indicating that Ron is still alive just then Edward hears a crying voice coming from an underground bunker prompting him to follow the sound as he descends he discovers an entrance leading to an underground water tank inside the water he finds Rowan's distinctive Red Jacket alarmed Edward frantically opens the lid and dives into the water but someone from behind locks the lid trapping him in the tank Edward desperately calls for help but his cries go unheard the night passes and Edward remains clinging to the lid of the tank thankfully early the next morning Willow
spots him and frees him from the trap Edward then shows her Rowan's red jacket and doll as evidence that she was held captive here not long after Edward becomes aware that today is the May Day Festival on the island and the villagers are preparing to perform a fertility ritual this realization fills him with panic as he believes that they are about to sacrifice Rowan as a result he urges Willow to stay at home safely while he searches the entire Village for their daughter he even visits a local coffee shop and seeks assistance from the male
villagers but they completely disregard him left with no other option Edward goes to Sister Beach who works at the same Motel he stayed at he uh incapacitates her steals her bear costume and joins the parade led by Sister somersile blending in as one of the Island's inhabitants before long Edward notices that Rowan is tied to a large tree seemingly destined for sacrifice without wasting any time he rescues her bravely and then escapes into the woods the shot of Nick Cage punching a lady dressed as a bear is the clip that initially made me fall in
love with YouTube after fleeing for some time Edward appears to be lost so Rowan leads the way shockingly she leads him back to sister summersile and the kid reunites with her mother who stands alongside the so-called goddess in a shocking twist sister summer zile thanks Rowan for her assistance and Edward realizes that the search for Rowan was a premeditated trap the whole time it is then unveiled that Willow known on the island as sister Willow is none other than sister summersile's daughter she had orchestrated Edward's fate Years Ago by choosing him as a human sacrifice
in order to restore the Island's cursed honey production this Revelation devastates Edward as he once again experiences betrayal from his former fiancee following this the villagers gradually encircle Edward closing in on him he brings out his gun threatening to shoot all of them but Willow reveals that she has removed all the bullets from his weapon the villagers then tackle and overpower Edward cruelly breaking his legs to ensure he cannot Escape they also subject him to extreme torment by releasing the bees upon him if you've ever watched me on Twitter you know I goddamn love this
scene a few moments later they carry him to an enormous doll which they refer to as the Wicker man where he is hoisted high above the ground and locked inside with Willow's consent Rowan ignites the Wicker man and Edward is sacrificed in a colossal Inferno all as his screams echo through the air killing me won't bring back your Goddamn money [Music] scene then shifts to six months later depicting sister Willow and sister honey in a bar within Washington there they are approached by two police officers one of whom recently graduated from the police academy the
