"Watcher in The Woods" will be broadcast on the FEAR Network over the next few days. While I'm not certain if this is the first time the movie has been televised, it is the first time I've seen the movie listed. "Watcher" affords DM the rare opportunity to portray a loveable, charming family man, Paul Curtis. All of his scenes occur early in the movie, and he is well worth watching.
"Watcher" is a Disney production, but it is one of the early ventures into movies that are not suitable for younger kids. It is exceedingly dark spooky, not gory, horror with subtle occult content.
Trivia:
A few scenes in the movie were edited and filmed some months after the original filming. Carroll Baker did not return to England. At the time, DM was already in England filming Sapphire and Steel. S&S fans will recognize DM's Steel Assignment 1 look.
