The Cabin In The Woods (2012) Review


Starring: Kristen Connolly, Chris Hemsworth, & Anna Hutchinson






"Five friends go for a break at a remote cabin in the woods, they get more then they bargained for. Together, they must discover the truth behind the cabin in the woods." IMDB.com

This was another one of Sean's picks, it was interesting, but I wouldn't call it a horror film, thriller yes, but not horror. The story was unique and very interesting. Every time the film started to build to suspense up  a comedic part will pop in there and ruin everything. When I see a film that is advertise as horror I'm expecting to go home and be terrified to turn off the lights or be alone, but instead I ended up laughing instead of screaming. The film was great with building suspense but horrible at delivering the final scream. So if your going to see this film and expecting to be scared like any true horror film, don't bother, instead go watch it because it had a interesting and unique story line.

  1. Good review Jennifer. This is a hell of a fun movie that features twists that got better and better as the film went on. It’s crazy that horror films can be this fun and entertaining just by smart and witty writing. However, it won’t last for too long so we might as well enjoy it while Whedon and Goodard are around.
