A masked killer terrorizes horror’s favorite slaygrounds, a campsite in the woods, in the new trailer for slasher Deathwoods.
Deathwoods begins streaming exclusively on Screambox on September 1.
Decades after a gruesome murder-suicide involving the Wallace family gave rise to disturbing local legends, the forest remains haunted by stories of a grotesque figure lurking deep within the trees. In the present day, Scott’s friends Kyle and Jessica plan a weekend camping trip to help him recover from a painful breakup by introducing him to Jessica’s friend Michelle.
What begins as an attempt to reconnect and escape everyday life soon spirals into terror as the group realizes the legend haunting the woods may be real. As paranoia, isolation, and violence escalate, the friends are forced into a desperate struggle to survive the horrors hidden within Deathwoods.
Jake Kopronica and Deryk Wehrley co-direct from a script Kopronica co-wrote with Deathwoods‘ creator Scott Conner.
Starring in the upcoming horror movie are Anthony Dain, KateLynn E. Newberry, MacKenzie Lee, Kellan Jackson, with Felissa Rose (Sleepaway Camp, Terrifier 2) and introducing Miles Dimitri Baker.
Check out the retro-style poster and trailer below, which brings ’80s slashers like Madman to mind.
