Product Description

In the summer of 1962, three teenagers went on a camping trip into Herongate Woods. What started out as a fun trip ended in a nightmare as one of the boys met with a tragic death. The other two escaped, but could only relay a tail of a hooded and horned man who terrorized them. Forty years later, one of the survivors meets with a mysterious and tragic death and the only survivor returns to the scene of the original incident with a documentary crew. As members of the crew die in horrible circumstances the survivors are on a desperate search to find what the spirit of the forest wants before it s too late!
The past catches up with them as the hooded man returns and the spirit of the forest is awoken with chilling consequences.

5.0 out of 5 stars A minor miracle, November 17, 2009

By	CatharinaBeuys - See all my reviews

Read the review by Gavin Stanley/Remotegoat.co.uk which sums it up perfectly:

Considering the pittance that this really entertaining and inventive film took to make, it is very much a minor miracle of a film. Everything from the direction and stylized shots to the soundtrack, score and overall quality is amazing. Apparently the budget was around £25k!!! Well for that I would have expected a b-list feature length soap with wooden acting and poorly lit sets. I was very surprised to be totally engrossed in the film and had no 'niggles' in my mind like 'that looked cheap', 'that sound was dodgy' and so on. In fact it was the opposite. The shots were excellent and interesting, the rock soundtrack was superb, the script flowed extremely well and the plot was intelligent. It reminded me a little of a really good quality, contemporary, feature length version of 'Tales Of The Unexpected' mixed with a Hammer House Of Horror film and it felt like 'something a bit different' from horror movies that have been released recently which I have found boring with little imagination.
The performances from every member of the cast were excellent with a lot of variation in characters. Mike Instone came across very well indeed as the cheeky Brummie with a heart ( a heart of gold or a cut out of the chest beating heart with a knife in it??? Go see it and find out!).Also Katrin Riedel-Kelly did a great job of a very spooky and quirky loon.but overall the acting performances were spotless.
I thought that the effects in the film were very good and not too 'over the top' and the guts and gore were very convincing.
The mainly rock soundtrack suited the movie perfectly and drove the plot along with gusto and the score was very well done indeed and created the right tense atmosphere.
Overall, I think this movie has got the chance to become a real cult hit.
£25k for this!! Miracles do happen.
