 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Woods is a 2006 deconstruction of the horror genre, with a refreshingly low body count, directed by Lucky McKee.It follows Heather, a rebellious teenager played by Agnes Bruckner, who is sent to an all-girl boarding school set against a large and spooky forest. She is given a scholarship after circling random answers on a test paper and starts to make a strong friend, and possible lover, in the nerd girl Marcy. From there we see Heather slowly realize the school is not all it seems and the teachers running the school are very closely linked to the forest and the disappearance of several classmates. Bruce Campbell plays a smaller role as Alice's father, Joe.

 Boarding School of Horrors: The school is dogged with rumors of mysterious student disappearances, and possibly an axe-murder a hundred years ago of the headmistress. When Heather is taken to her room, she learns that the empty bed belongs to a student to attempted to kill herself in Chemistry class. She then meets that girl in her dreams and learns that the truth is much worse...

 An Axe to Grind: A wood-splitting axe was how the headmistress was dispatched by the three witches, according to school legend. And, this (apparently even the same axe) is how Heather disposes of the witches in the end.
