Surprise! The Woods, directed by Adam Wingard and written by Simon Barrett, is a stealth Blair Witch sequel. The curtain has officially been lifted by Lionsgate, and we have a new trailer and updated poster:
"A group of college students venture into the Black Hills Forest in Maryland to uncover the mysteries surrounding the disappearance of James’ sister who many believe is connected to the legend of the Blair Witch. At first the group is hopeful, especially when a pair of locals offer to act as guides through the dark and winding woods, but as the endless night wears on, the group is visited by a menacing presence. Slowly, they begin to realize the legend is all too real and more sinister than they could have imagined."
Blair Witch will be released on September 16th and stars James Allen McCune, Callie Hernandez, Brandon Scott, Valorie Curry, Corbin Reid, and Wes Robinson. The Daily Dead team was at tonight's Comic-Con screening, so be on the lookout for our official review in the very near future.
