Horror Week: First Look - The Woods

Agnes Bruckner (Blue Car, Murder by Numbers, Alias) has 2 horror films coming out over the next year. First is Backwater, which I reported on earlier. It is from the director of I Know What You Did Last Summer and is produced by Kevin Williamson (screenwriter of Scream, Scream 2, I Know What You Did Last Summer.) Next, and more importantly, comes The Woods. The Woods is the reason why The Village was The Village as MGM had the rights to the title before M. Night Shyamalan. The Woods is scheduled to be released Sept. 2, 2005. In addition to Bruckner, it costars Patricial Clarkson (Far From Heaven, Pieces of April) and genre icon Bruce Campbell (The Evil Dead, Army of Darkness.) It is a Suspiria-esque tale of a private school in the 1960's where weird things start to happen. Check out the film's official website.
