Deep in the Chilean countryside, Ana and Anny live with their deformed brother and are subject to their father’s perverse and sadistic whims. After a dispute with the police leaves a wake of death and mutilation, they flee and find refuge in a remote cabin hidden from society. Meanwhile, a crime lord, convinced they have stolen the massive stash of drugs their father was hiding, sends a violent pack of thugs to find them. (Artsploitation Films)

Hidden in the Wood’s virtue remains above all the fact that it is a very raw film, much grittier than its American version, which in some ways is much easier to stomach. You can see how in America they are afraid to remake it in a way that would be similar in explicitness to other cinematography. That's why the original in particular stands out - because it wasn't afraid in any respect.

A truly beautiful opportunity for experienced fringe viewers to (again, for the umpteenth time) be surprised, shocked and mentally beaten by yet another insufferable monstrosity born out of their favourite sub-genre. The rest of us will be lost without any interest or excitement :-D Anyway… when “something” does happen (something = rape, torture, cannibalism and other cute leisure activities of the inhabitants of the backwaters of the American south), it’s quite an intense carnage, and the film works well in those moments. But, my God! Why does it have to be so idiotic? This sub-genre must have it in the blood :-/ Gratuitous exploitation crap interchangeable with a lot of other gratuitous exploitation crap. And I never give up and always go hoping this time it will be worth the bother. It won’t, it won’t, it won’t. If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all.
