Danny Nucci, Haylie Duff and Ryan Merriman Star in Spike Original Movie 'Backwoods' Premiering Sunday, June 8 at 9 p.m.
'Backwoods' To Premiere In HD Under The 'Spike Guy Movies' Umbrella
NEW YORK, May 12 -- Danny Nucci ("World Trade Center"),
Haylie Duff ("Napoleon Dynamite") and Ryan Merriman ("Comanche Moon") star
in the Spike original movie, "Backwoods," premiering on Sunday, June 8 from
9 p.m. - 11 p.m. (ET/PT) on Spike TV. "Backwoods" premieres in HD and is
slated under the "Spike Guy Movies" umbrella that will air throughout 2008.
Spike TV's original "Spike Guy Movies" average nearly 1.5 million viewers
each month.
"Backwoods" is a terrifying thriller centered on a group of young
colleagues who set out for a fun company retreat in the remote woods, only
to find themselves hunted by the unknown and fighting for their lives. Each
year, Global Gaming invites seven up-and-coming employees to participate in
a company-sponsored weekend getaway to challenge their survival skills and
build camaraderie. Knowing that this is their chance to make a good
impression, Perry (Nucci), Lee (Duff), Adam (Merriman) and several others
leave the city behind and prepare themselves for some friendly, competitive
games. However, upon arrival, they split into two teams and immediately
begin to notice that things aren't quite right. The uneasiness quickly
turns to horror when one team loses its way and the members find themselves
under attack. The surviving team must now fight to save its friends, all
while being viciously hunted in the booby-trapped backwoods.
RHI Entertainment presents an Alpine Medien Production in association
with Larry Levinson Productions and produced in association with Grand Army
Entertainment, LLC. "Backwoods" is directed by Marty Weiss, written by
Anthony Jaswinski and produced by Albert T. Dickerson III, Nick Lombardo
and Mike Moran. Robert Halmi, Jr. and Larry Levinson serve as executive
producers.
