Sometimes it’s okay to let your brain turn to gelatin and watch a good ol’ fashioned stalk and slash flick. Something that avoids deep and thought provoking story lines, and focuses more on the red stuff. From all outward appearances, that’s exactly what The Redwood Massacre seems to be.

Starring Mark Wood (TVs Trinity), Lisa Cameron (My Brother’s Keeper), Lisa Livingstone (TVs Holby City), Rebecca Wilkie (Legion of Evil), and Alec Westwood (TVs Roughnecks), the “chilling” film chronicles the horrific outcome of a group of friends who visit a legendary murder site, Redwood House. What happens next will chill you to the bone.

The Redwood Massacre comes to DVD and VOD July 7 from Uncork’d Entertainment. You can expect a full review shortly, but until then, have a look at some stills along with the official trailer below:

For five adventurous friends, visiting the legendary murder site of the Redwood House has all the hallmarks of being an exciting and thrilling camping weekend away. A popular site for revellers and party goers, each year on the exact date of the famous local family massacre, people from around the country head out to the site to have fun and scare each other. Events take a bloody turn for the worse when the innocent campers discover the Redwood legend is in fact a horrible bloody reality, which turns the unsuspecting victims into prey for a mysterious axe wielding maniac that has remained dormant for 20 years.
