The Cabin in the Woods 2012

"The Cabin in the Woods" is gory fun complete with biting satire that sets the very cliched Horror genre on its head. This is not a slow movie. The tension builds quickly and the fun starts right away. I really liked the last 20 minutes and to say they were chaotic would be a severe understatement.

The movie is almost a little too cute and clever sometimes and that keeps the scares to a minimum. The cast is solid and the special effects are good but not great. I really liked the way the movie ended. I kept expecting a very pedestrian ending that made sure that the audience left happy about the future of the very likable main characters. However I was surprised at the conclusion.

There are some neat twists and turns but unfortunately I saw a trailer by accident and I'm certain it took away some of the mystery of the story.
