Adam Wingard and Simon Barrett heading into The Woods for new horror

February 8, 2015 by Gary Collinson

After last year’s acclaimed thriller The Guest, director Adam Wingard is heading back to the horror genre, signing on to direct The Woods for Lionsgate.

The project has been penned by regular collaborator Simon Barrett, with The Hollywood Reporter revealing that the film “involves a group of college students on a camping trip who discover they are not alone.”

In addition to The Guest, Wingard and Barrett have previously worked together on Autoerotic, You’re Next and What Fun We Were Having, as well as segments of V/H/S, V/H/S/2 and The ABCS of Death, and are also attached to a remake of Kim Jee-woon’s I Saw the Devil.
