Director Jason Horton is now in post-production on his creature feature Monsters in the Woods. The first trailer for the feature was posted (here) on Fangoria earlier this week. Now, Horton has passed on a couple exclusive photos from the shooting of the film. Actress Jacqui Holland is seen left as Suzi, with what appears to be a life-threatening branch impalement. A second photo is inside, which shows characters Kris (Paul Misko) and Ashley (Linda Bella) in an embrace. Horton says that he is working on the "actual cut this week" and that: "this is definitely the best material I've had to edit with" (Zapruter).
The film is a bloody satire on independent filmmaking and the challenges that directors go through to simply make a film. Even lower budget productions encounter fierce competition and pressure from studios to follow certain formulas. These elements are in Horton's tongue-in-cheek Monsters in the Woods. Have a read of an interview with Horton (here), as he talks about this project and check out the second photo just below.
The synopsis for the Monsters in the Woods feature is here:
"A low-budget film crew treks deep into the wilderness to shoot horror sequences for their unsellable indie-drama. They soon find themselves in the midst of their own horror show as they are hunted down real monsters" (Monsters).
Release Date: 2011 (Distro' Being Sought).
Director/writer: Jason Horton.
Producer: Robert Bravo.
Cast: Glenn Plummer, Lee Perkins, Linda Bella, Edward Hendershott, and Ashton Blanchard.
