I am the MoPo member who designed the later one-sheet for
THE WICKER MAN. When the showed me the artwork that
Warner Bros. had come up with for the film, I couldn't believe
that they'd given away the surprise ending.
(Thanks for liking my version.)

yes it does in a way, BUT to be truthfull, the aussie video, which
has it as a photo, scared the shite outta me (and gave it ALL away),
but I was still surprised at the ending, the US poster, or rather
one of them (2 releases - for the original ) was designed by a
member of Mopo (my favourite art, but still want a UK 1sht) and I
managed to get a rolled version, in my top 3 films of all time
(maybe top 5 depending on the day and my mood)
