Cinemavixion Review

This chilling narrative, "The Woods," directed by Sarah Lyons, unravels a compelling true crime mystery through the lens of a lone survivor recounting a harrowing hiking trip. Years after a tragic event claimed the lives of her friends, the story unfolds via a popular podcast, gradually revealing a truth far more terrifying than initially conceived. The film masterfully builds suspense, hinting that the true horror may have extended far beyond the initial incident. With a dedicated cast led by Taylor Harris-Butler and Samantha Evans, the narrative explores themes of lingering trauma and the enduring nature of fear, leaving the audience to question the finality of the past.
