WOUND is the new feature film, written and directed by David Blyth, New Zealand’s controversial cult / horror film maker. www.davidblyth.com
Filming was completed on 31st January 2010 and is currently in Post Production.

WOUND is a Supernatural Horror Film that explores the dark worlds of mental illness, incest, revenge and death. We follow Tanya as she searches for the mother she has never met – a mother (Susan) who gave her up for dead after being abused by her own father who remains stuck in her present life.

Tanya returns from the dead to confront and possess Susan with all her deepest fears and desires, sending Susan into a state of madness and gore filled retribution.

WOUND explores and confronts the dark, distorted supernatural world that lurks within  us all.

A young woman, alone, attempts to fight the demons that begin to haunt her days and nights – in a series of brutal confrontations with the enemies of the past who want to possess and kill her.

But, they are all members of her own family ... of her own self.

A dark, disturbing look into a haunted woman’s mind.

This is one terrible dream you will never wake up from.

The Producers acknowledge the sources of the following: 

Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices that,
If I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open and show riches
Ready to drop upon me that,
when I waked, I cried to dream again

- William Shakespeare - Caliban, The Tempest

"I love you, I love you knot. With each tie I make you mine
By the second, we're bound in pleasure
With the third, I join my life, my treasure
Through the fourth, all wounds burned closed
In the fifth, all pain disposed
With each string my heart creates
Death itself cannot forsake The One who fate has knit for me...
And as I seal the ties that bind, I stitch my love to knot
Nine with a kiss for my sweet Angel Mine."

`Stitch of Nine' by E. Takcas

"Her daughter
you caught a glimpse of her daughter
when she opened the door
half opened the door
and you knew
then and there
that her story
would continue
through her daughter."
Poem written and performed by Richard von Sturmer
