Recognition

Awards and nominations
The film won the 'B-Movie Award' for 'Best Digital Effects' at the 2007 B-Movie Film Festival in Syracuse, New York. Reception
Reception for the film has been mixed, with Total Sci-Fi Online saying Dead Wood was "Plodding in places and overly reminiscent of Blair Witch in others, Bryant and co. are nevertheless a team to watch." Dread Central praised the film's "strong performances" but criticized Dead Wood's "slow beginning". DVD Talk also reviewed the film, saying Dead Wood "has a near equal number of strengths and weaknesses" but that due to the extras the movie was "a mild recommendation for the horror crowd." Fatally Yours wrote "despite not liking the first half of the film I admit I am glad to have seen Dead Wood." References
