We’ve been talking about Jason Horton’s Monsters in the Woods for some time now, and today we have a lot of updating to do for the project including a new trailer, a detailed synopsis, and release info!

Monsters in the Woods stars Glenn Plummer, Blaine Cade, Linda Bella, Edward Hendershott, and Lee Perkins. Look for it on DVD February 21st, 2012, but first, if you have Comcast Cable, you’ll be able to check it out on VOD in January.

Synopsis:
Low budget filmmaker JAYSON (Glenn Plummer) has made the movie of his dreams… but to his dismay, it can’t sell in Hollywood. The distributors tell him, “You have nothing exploitative in your movie. Add some sex scenes, more violence, and maybe we’ll buy your film.” The distraught filmmaker approaches his neophyte, semi-psychotic producer BRAVO (Blaine Cade) and tells him, “Put together a cast and crew… we’re going to re-shoot and give them what they want!” Bravo nervously tells him, “We’re out of money.” Jayson screams at him, “I don’t care. Do WHATEVER you have to do!”

Bravo enlists a young movie crew to follow them into the remote backwoods of the Great Bear Mountains by telling them, “There’s no money, but when we sell this, you’ll all get a big piece of the profits for your efforts… and great craft service!” Various ‘B’ movie actors, including stuntman BURT (Edward Hendershott) and his gorgeous wannabe actress girlfriend ASHLEY (Linda Bella), join them as Jayson has promised her a role in the movie. After a series of ‘behind-the-scenes’ interviews of this quirky bunch, they begin filming. Jayson is accidentally killed by his inept crew, and in the midst of all the confusion, Bravo strangely convinces them to finish the movie. They reluctantly agree but soon after are attacked by an unrelenting swarm of deadly ‘devil dogs’ from Hell. Burt, Ashley, and Bravo briefly escape the danger as they are rescued by two ‘angels’ sent from Heaven to battle the monsters. Unknown to them all, Bravo has made a pact with the Devil to provide twelve souls (theirs) in order to get the movie made. Mayhem ensues as the survivors attempt to kill the ‘demons’ and close the entrance to Hell before the whole Earth is consumed by evil!
