Movie Review: The Cabin In The Woods 2011

Synopsis: Five friends go for a break at a remote cabin in the woods, where they get more than they bargained for. Together, they must discover the truth behind the cabin in the woods.

This was not your average teens head off into the woods to smoke, drink, party, and score type of slasher flick. There was more to the movie than some hockey mask wearing, machete wielding, psychopath, don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking such films being that I own the collection on DVDs, but there was just more to it! The acting was well done, I found myself pulling for the pot head from the time he arrived on the scene to be the hero, whether or not that's how it played out you'll have to find out for yourself! I will tell you though, if there is a basement in a cabin out in the wood you should probably steer clear of it and if you run across a book written in another language you should probably not read it out loud, if you don't know what it says! For some reason I thought a bit of the element of Midnight Meat Train was present in this film, not going to go into detail but its what popped into my mind. Maybe I'm just shedding a little light on other films I've found to be entertaining, who knows, but I did find this to be quite entertaining!
There was actually a scene in this movie that may have been the bloodiest I've ever seen in a film.

I'm giving this film a 4 out of 5! It's one of those films that pulls you in. It had some interesting and creative ideas. A good story line acted out well, and another reason to keep people out of the woods.
