Film preview: Don't Tie Me to this Stake!
First showings of Arkansas indie movie "The Forest Through The Trees"
The new Arkansas-made horror movie “The Forest through the Trees” premiered at The Auditorium in Eureka Springs on March 22, 2025.
The movie concerns a father and daughter searching for their missing wife and mother. The trail leads to a terrifying encounter with a demonic cult. Lead actors are Annie Sullivan, James Stokes and Scott Doss.
This is the first full-length feature for Jason Pitts of Fayetteville, Arkansas the film’s director, writer and producer. His earlier efforts include the 60-minute horror pic “Voorhees Night of the Beast” in 2021 and a well-received 2022 short “When the Stairs Creak.”
The Eureka Springs show caps a trifecta of premieres for “The Forest through the Trees.” It also screened in Fayetteville and Hot Spring earlier in 2025.
