Bayview Entertainment Tabs July 30 For The Blu-ray Debut Of Writer, Producer and director Jozsef Gallai’s A Stranger in the Woods

Bayview Entertainment kills it on July 30 (metaphorically speaking) with the Blu-ray debut of writer, producer and director Jozsef Gallai’s A Stranger in the Woods.

A genre film to be sure, but one that breaks the mold with a solidary encounter (no haunted house, but the house is strange) and no victim pool, but you come to fear for the safety, if not the sanity, of the protagonist.

Edith (Laura Ellen Wilson — as Linda in director Matt Shaw’s Chain, plus such films as Aftermath, Project Skyquake, Surprise and the award-winning short film titled In Bluebell Wood) is a college senior, a film major, and as a senior year assignment she is tasked with interviewing Victor Browning (Bill Oberest, Jr. — A Haunting in Salem, Stressed to Kill, The Retrieval, Circus of the Dead, Coyote and more … many more).   He is a man who has lived for some time, alone, in a small cabin the woods … off the grid.   There is a lake nearby and his little house seems so perfect.

This is a claustrophobic character study.   A turning of the screws; a ratcheting of tensions … and you, as the audience, are literally screaming at the screen … Run, Edith, Run!!!

Oberest is absolutely perfect.  Eccentric, strange, simple, even kind, but in a way off-putting and dangerous … and all the while there is someone (figuratively speaking) scratching their fingers on the chalkboard as the story plays out.   It’s that kind of movie (without giving too much away).   Oberest nails it!!

If you are a genre fan — and/or a fan of Bill Oberest, Jr. — then Bayview Entertainment July 30 Blu-ray debut of A Stranger in the Woods is going to be everything you could ask for.  Discover it!!
