The Woods – On Limited Edition Blu-ray Out on 15th September 2025
EVERY HIGH SCHOOL HAS ITS SECRETS
In 2006, director Lucky McKee (The Woman) followed up his critically acclaimed character study May with The Woods, a brooding folk horror spellbinder in the tradition of such classics as Carrie and Suspiria.
New England, 1965: rebellious teenager Heather (Agnes Bruckner, Murder by Numbers) is sent by her parents to a repressive all-girls boarding school in the heart of a dark forest. Under the watchful eye of the mysterious headmistress, Ms Traverse (Patricia Clarkson, Shutter Island), Heather finds herself developing previously untapped supernatural abilities. Beset by increasingly disturbing visions and mysterious voices, Heather must harness her powers to uncover the terrifying truth of what whispers from the woods…
Also starring Bruce Campbell (Army of Darkness) and Rachel Nichols (The Amityville Horror) and beautifully shot by John R. Leonetti (The Mask), The Woods is a haunting tale of female empowerment and the occult, drenched with atmosphere and suspense.
