Adam Wingard and Simon Barrett, the directing-writing duo behind acclaimed and fantastic genre films like A Horrible Way to Die, You’re Next and The Guest are turning to out-and-out horror with their next film, The Woods.
THR reports the filmmakers will reteam with producers Keith Calder and Jessica Calder at Snoot, as well as Roy Lee and Steven Schneider (Insidious). The Lionsgate film’s basic plot sees college students head off on a camping trip and “discover they are not alone.” A spring shoot is expected for the horror film and its implied The Woods hopes to be a real scarer.
