Darren Lynn Bousman‘s psychological horror The Barrens, which stars Stephen Moyer, Mia Kirshner, Erik Knudsen, J Larose, Allie MacDonald, Max Topplin and Peter DaCunha, will be hitting DVD and Blu-ray on tomorrow, October 9th.

I recently hopped on the phone with Bousman to talk about his use of Super 16 in the film, working with Stephen Moyer and his approach to gore as well as the legend of The Jersey Devil.

In the film Moyer plays “a man who takes his family on a camping trip to the more than 1 million acres of dense forest known as the New Jersey Pine Barrens, where he becomes convinced they’re being stalked by the legendary winged monster that looks like a deformed hybrid of several different animals.” The legend of The Jersey Devil has been passed along for hundreds of years, as the creature has risen from obscurity to take its place alongside the Loch Ness Monster, Big Foot and the Chupacabra.
