Christopher Lee's acting career brought audiences many iconic movies, like The Wicker Man. Still, he was not impressed when Nicolas Cage starred in The Wicker Man remake, and Lee referred to the situation as "pretty desperate." Christopher Lee played some iconic villains throughout his career, and while fantasy fans might know him best as Saruman in Lord of the Rings, he also played Count Dracula many times. That said, of all the great Christopher Lee horror movies that aren't about Dracula, the 1973 folk horror The Wicker Man is one of his best.
