A movie that we’re extremely excited for is Adam Wingard’s The Woods, which Brad called “A new beginning for horror films.” Written by Simon Barrett, the duo who brought us segments in BD’s own V/H/S and its sequel are back with a movie that looks like it will usher in terror like we haven’t felt or seen in a long time.
The movie will, “…involve a group of college students on a camping trip who discover they are not alone,” and will star James Allen McCune, Callie Hernandez, Brandon Scott, Valorie Curry, Corbin Reid, and Wes Robinson.
Earlier today, EW revealed a new poster for the film, which you can see below. Using only red, white, and black, the image shows leafless trees puncturing the sky, which is bright blood red. The tagline promises that, “There is something evil hiding in The Woods.”
The site also revealed that the film will make its first public screening at the San Diego Comic Con on July 22nd. The film opens wide on September 16th.
The Woods is produced by Roy Lee (The Ring, The Grudge, The Strangers, It), Steven Schneider (Paranormal Activity, Insidious), Keith Calder and Jessica Wu (You’re Next, The Guest).
