THE CABIN IN THE WOODS [2012]


Director Drew Goddard of Buffy The Vampire Slayer & LOST teams up with co-writer Joss Whedon to craft a mighty fine horror film that dissects the genre and turns it on it's head over and over again.
The Cabin In The Woods is a fast-paced, hilariously gory film that will please horror movie buffs and Whedon/Goddard fans alike. It starts out like a run of the mill "kids in the scary woods" story but quickly takes a turn into something much smarter and twisted then the you could imagine. It tips it's hat to almost every type of horror film you can think of with the same type of humor and self-awareness of Scream. I can't say much more without ruining anything.
If you're a fan of the genre I can assure you, it will not disappoint.
