Synopsis
The Backwoods (Bosque de sombras, 2006) is a Spanish-French thriller starring Gary Oldman that you can watch online on iFILM. Two couples drive out to a remote stretch of the Spanish countryside for a quiet break in a house ringed by forest.
The holiday sours the moment they find a girl with mangled hands locked inside an abandoned cabin. Trying to save her turns the outsiders into prey: to the insular local men, meddling strangers are something to be hunted. The chase moves into woods where the villagers know every trail and every tree — an edge the visitors can't match. Gary Oldman and Paddy Considine play men whose civilised polish peels away as the body count climbs.
Koldo Serra's feature debut runs on the cold logic of a 1970s wilderness thriller, where the gap between town and backcountry turns lethal. Stream The Backwoods online on iFILM.
