Writer/director of The Wicker Man not happy with remake

and wants his name completely removed from anything having to do with the Americanized version! The full story is here:

The original director of The Wicker Man has called in his lawyers to have his name taken off promotional material for the $40m movie even before lead star Nicolas Cage has finished filming.

Oy.
