According to cinematographer John Orphan, the forest scenes were filmed in Griffith Park. Orphan claims filming was supposed to have occurred in the Angeles National Forest, but a snowstorm happened there on the week that filming was scheduled to occur.[1]
The film premiered at the Molins Horror Film Festival on November 13, 2020.[2]
In November 2021, it was announced that the U.S. distribution rights to the film were acquired by Screen Media.[3] The film was released in limited theaters and on VOD on January 14, 2022.[4]
The film has a 17% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on six reviews.[5]
Starburst gave the film a positive review: "The conclusion might be a tad obvious but it works, although some viewers might feel a little short-changed."[6]
Tyler Doupe of Dread Central awarded the film one and a half stars out of five and wrote, "A discombobulated narrative and frequent gaps in logic make the flick a chore to endure."[7]
Bobby LePire of Film Threat rated the film a 5 out of 10 and wrote, "Stoker Hills is nowhere near being downright terrible, or even all that unwatchable. But, it is disappointing and unremarkable."[8]
