Cabin
in the Woods
(2012)
The
Cabin in the Woods is a
satire of the tropes of
horror films where 5
archetypal friends are
brought to a cabin in the
woods to enjoy a weekend
away, not knowing that
they are being manipulated
by a control room. As the
usual couples hook up, the
jock and the ditzy girl,
the sensitive guy and the
so-called virginal girl
(while the stoner gets
nothing, per usual...),
the control room unleashes
stock horror villain #543,
Civil War Zombies. As the
zombies take the group out
in the usual order, the
control room are rejoicing
yet another success,
except the stoner isn't
dead and he comes back to
ruin the plot and uncover
a worldwide conspiracy or
some shit
Whatever...
I can't think of a film
that feels like someone is
pointing and laughing at
me more than The Cabin in
the Woods. Say what you
will about generic horror
films but at least they
don't insult you for
watching them (they may
insult you in other ways
though). If the makers of
this film think that it
will change horror films
forever, then I've got
news for them, it won't
and nor have they. Who's
laughing at whom now? (Ah,
probably them still...)
