Woodpecker is filmed in a docufiction style,[2] set in the small Arkansas town of Brinkley. It incorporates faux-interviews[3] with Brinkley residents recounting their experiences with the mysterious bird.
Hyrns becomes increasingly erratic and comic in his attempts to locate the animal.
The film’s soundtrack received positive reviews.[4] The score, composed by James Lavino, was performed by Radiohead bassist Colin Greenwood and Lee and Tyler Sargent of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.[5]
