Details

This listing is for the standard edition Blu-ray/DVD combo. The limited edition slipcover (designed by Justin Talarski) was limited to 2,500 units and is sold out. The two versions are identical, aside from the slipcover.

In director James Bryan's 1981 cult classic, a group of obnoxious campers venture into the wilderness for what they assume will be a fun filled weekend. Unknown to them, a bloodthirsty maniac is hiding in the woods, watching their every move, and violently killing them, one by one, every chance he gets... Filled with low-fi gore effects and black humor, DON'T GO IN THE WOODS remains one of the quintessential regional slasher films of the early 80s, and is coming to Blu-ray for the very first time, newly restored in 2K from the 35mm Interpositive and loaded with extras.

Reviews

Fun Slasher!

"Woodsy locations and an unforgettable villain are just some of the cool features that await unsuspecting viewers in this fun Slasher."

— Mark H. (5/5)

80s Slasher Madness

"What DGITW lacks in polish, acting, and well, competence, it more than makes up for in effort, ambition, and general insanity. There's some bonkers characters, lots of nice scenery, some surprising gore, and a memorable villain. If you're a slasher fan, it's a film you must experience in all its glory, especially in this beautifully restored VS release, stacked with extras."

— Kyle S. (4/5)

Pure 80s slasher chaos

"It’s notoriously cheap and messy, but that’s kind of the charm. The wild woodsy setting, goofy synth score, and nonstop kills make it a fun late-night watch."

— CHAN T. (5/5)

VS-069

"Awesome camp site slasher, awesome slipcover, perfect !!"

— richard c. (5/5)

Don't Go In The Woods

"This was a blind buy for me but because it's a slasher I've never seen I went for it and wasn't disappointed. Not a classic a la Halloween, Friday, etc. but good fun nonetheless. Recommended for slasher enthusiasts."

— Daniel B. (3/5)

Four Backpackers and a Maniac

"An ultra-low-budget camp slasher that's perfect for a summer watch. As the great Joe Bob once said, "No plot to get in the way of the story. ""

— Noel H. (4/5)

Woody Woods Splatter

"Savage, dirty, gory and illogic. One of my fave Stalk’n’Slash. And I love the soundtrack."

— massimiliano m. (5/5)

Pretty good slasher!!

"Had a lot of fun with Don't Go in the Woods. As a really big fan of slasher flicks, this a hoot to see it. Now I have to watch with some friends and a big pack of porcorns!!!"

— GILBERTO C. (4/5)

Terrible Film, Great Release

"One of those films that would have been lost to the winds of time had it not been a Video Nasty back in the day… terrible acting, camerawork and pretty much everything else, but has a kind of charm. The VS release makes the film look better than it ever had any right to, and kudos to the gang for that."

— Dickon N. (5/5)

Meh

"Very middling slice and dice slasher! For fans of the film, this VS edition is the way to go though. Excellent presentation and wonderful special features."

— Brandon T. (2/5)
