"Deadwood Park is a gritty, no-budget horror anthology that leans hard into its raw, DIY roots. The stories are uneven, but there’s a genuine passion behind the camera that gives it a scrappy kind of charm. It’s definitely rough around the edges, but fans of underground horror will appreciate its ambition and unfiltered style."
"The slip cover is quality and the reversible cover art is a nice touch. The transfer is quality given how the film was shot. A supernatural crime thriller shot like a documentary of sorts. A good release."
"I loved the stellar locations in this horror film, and I also enjoyed the director's vision, which I feel they expressed very well! The movie was a very engaging watch, and I enjoyed it from beginning to end! The peerless VS restoration process was on full display with stellar sound and picture! Thank you, VS, for continuing to lovingly restore and release so many wonderful films from every conceivable genre! You are keeping physical media alive in this streaming world we now live in! Highly recommended!"
"The shooting locations really make this movie. The making of doc talking about how they got threatened by the owners and tricked into paying someone who claimed a bigger stake than they have is interesting and shows the perils of this kind of filmmaking. Apparently from the same team that did Scrapbook which is hard to believe. Extremely different form and content. A bit on the long side but good."
"I'm honored to say Eric Stanze is a friend and frequent collaborator of mine. DEADWOOD PARK was the third film (after ICE FROM THE SUN & SCRAPBOOK) that I laid eyes on. Eric's unique vision is constant here, and I'm so happy to see this one plucked from the Wicked Pixel archives and put here to shine from Saturn's Core. Keep 'em coming and I'll keep buying."
"I really enjoyed this movie. Watched all of the extras on the disc. Recommend!"
"Deadwood Park is a fun SOV horror flick shot in many cool and creepy locations. This is the next title released by SOV company Saturn's Core. They are the VS Partner Label that specializes in giving SOV gems good looking special editions. Deadwood Park is the local abandoned amusement park where children are getting murdered. The murders basically ruin the town. The movie is really well done and shines beyond it's SOV roots. The movie is creative and really does a good job making you feel uneasy. Being SOV but from 2007 it doesn't look bad. The disc comes with a feature length documentary as well as a 2026 retrospective documentary. There are also deleted scenes, outtakes, other featurettes and even music videos. The OCN slip looks pretty cool too. For sure check this one out. It was really well done!"
"I’ve watched a good number of SOV at this point, and this one really goes for it in a way many don’t!"
"Pretty good horror/thriller from Satur’s Core Audio & Video. I’ve seen this one back in the day and wanted a physical copy. If you are into “based on a true story” movies this film doesn’t disappoint. Packaging and presentation are great!"
"At nearly two hours, its literary ambitions occasionally strain the pacing, but the deliberate build pays off with genuine scares and a bloody, unsettling climax. Rough around the edges but undeniably absorbing, Deadwood Park is an atmospheric SOV horror that deserves a bigger audience that hopefully the new Saturn's Core Blu-ray will bring."
