Blackwoods is a 2002 psychological thriller film, directed by Uwe Boll, making it his sixth feature length film and his second film in English, and starring Patrick Muldoon and Clint Howard. It is set in the titular Blackwoods. The film was released direct-to-video on September 3, 2002 in North America.
Matt Sullivan (Patrick Muldoon) travels with his girlfriend Dawn (Keegan Connor Tracy) on a vacation to Blackwoods, only to discover a motel run by a quirky motel clerk (Clint Howard), a deranged family, and a horrific secret.
Stephen Holden from the New York Times gave Blackwoods a positive review, describing it as "smarter and more diabolical than you could have guessed at the beginning." Lou Lumenick of the New York Post gave a more negative review, calling Blackwoods a "low rent, direct-to-video-caliber thriller." The film contains several Boll trademarks, including but not limited to, multiple flashbacks, repeated use of slow-motion, and a twist ending.
