SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

oswalded I haven't achieved much in my life. I've lived "under the radar" and haven't taken many risks. But I have seen "Back Woods" *TWICE* . The effort it took to pop that DVD in a second time can only be described as Herculean. I learned a lot about my limits during that film. I don't know who will ever read this review, but rest assured that you and I (having never met one another) could go outside with the money we have in our pockets right now and film a better movie in less time than it would take you to watch "Back Woods". "Back Woods" was so bad that any description of how that "movie" (if we can define it as such) was "made" (if that indeed is how it came into being) would involve more description of the plot than is actually presented in the "film". Here's a taste : a fat man slathered with ketchup erupting from a latex cervix and a psychedelic deer/man/ghost with confusing sexuality haunt a forest and mess with some kids. It's like some buddies got drunk on Keystone Light and tried to film a horror movie before the buzz wore off, then some girl took her top off (but amazingly her breasts could barely hold my attention any longer than her catatonic acting)and some guy tucked his junk backwards. Fun night right? Except, the next day they woke up and actually tried to make it a real movie. Then gave up and tried to make it a comedy. Then gave it to a junkie to edit and he tried to make an art film out of it.There's moments in the film like when one of the actors(?) puts on a mustache and affects an accent and suddenly is playing the father of another character and you realize that was supposed to be a flashback or during the fifteen grainy minutes of tree shots so loving that i would not hesitate to describe it as "forest porn" that you realize :they didn't intend this. Despite the joking and the gore and the breasts...they thought this would actually be a real movie. And it is for this reason that "Back Woods" fails so completely. All the ego and naivety mixed together and created a cinematic black hole. Don't watch it. Ever.Oh yeah SPOILER ALERT they play the entire movie backwards at the end so i guess maybe i saw it four times.

Tito-8 You can put me in the group of viewers (or more accurately, victims) who watched this film in awe of the sheer stupidity that was unfolding before my eyes. Unless you're a friend or family member of someone involved in the film's production, I cannot fathom how anyone could enjoy this movie on any level. And no, this has little to do with the micro-budget, since I've certainly watched good movies that were made on a shoestring. It has to do with the utter lack of talent involved in the writing, acting and shooting of this mess. I don't think it was ever intended to be scary, since it's so ridiculous, but even as a parody, or send-up, or whatever they were trying to create, it fails spectacularly. This is EASILY one of the ten worst movies that I've ever seen, and watching this film is probably about as painful as giving birth was for Luther's mama.

rixrex If I could give this a ZERO or NEGATIVE, I would. I can't help but wonder at who the 10 folks were (at the time of this writing) who gave this an 8, 9 or 10!! I'd call this a student film, but it's not even of that quality, not even as a high school project, barely adequate as a 7th grade expository. Great Caesar's Ghost, even my group of friends at age 12 could've done better than this. Looks like the budget was a quarter and the shooting schedule was timed with a stopwatch instead of a calendar. Man, Ed Wood looks like Hitchcock next to this thing. Don't let the nice DVD box art fool you. PU in spades!! Since I have to give this 10 lines of text to post, let me recommend a much better shot on video horror flick, Hell's Highway. That one triumphs even with it's small budget, because it has a literate script and production folks who care about the production enough to give it some life.

imrtlbc After viewing Back Woods, I knew one thing. This is the greatest movie I have ever seen. When I see this film, I think of The Toxic Avenger meets The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Luther is the greatest psycho killer film has ever seen. David Hayes is an inspiration, no, an icon. He will no doubt fill our lives with one brilliant movie after another. God bless you, David Hayes, for you are truly a genius.
