You are now free to move about the Cabin in the Woods

So this movie just came out and it is all kinds of rad.

Basically some kids, pictured below, go to a cabin. It's in the woods. Then things happen! It's pretty dang awesome, and even better if you go in not knowing anything about it. Seriously. Don't look at reviews, as they are viper pits full of spoilers, and just go see it.

    I haven't really seen many horror movies

    It's more a deconstruction of them, containing elements of parody as well as straight horror elements. I guess that would be the best way to put it.

    It is in wide release.

    Wimble - Broader than that. It even deconstructs his style a bit.

    How easily do you scare and what are your dietary habits?


    Real answer - My wife gets scared by literally everything and she was ok.

    it really won't

    I'd classify it mainly as a comedy with some thriller elements, the horror is very subdued

    no, really

    the entire movie I was thinking that if cavemen managed to lock these dudes up, we can deal with them

    then I saw a Wrath of the Titans poster on the way out and realized that is basically what the sequel would be

    it's a comedy in the same way behind the mask is

    it's still a horror movie, but the horror is played for laughs/in a nudge nudge "remember that? yeah? TROPES!" way instead of just being OH FUCK WATCH OUT

    also whiteboard pic (spoilers!)

    I haven't seen Behind the Mask but the horror in the film are well done horror scenes, and I am sure with your tome of knowledge TLB you would enjoy every Ode to Horror that this movie has.

    sugar plum fairy is the music box/little girl with the lamprey mouth combo

    the "choices" they almost made (plus count marty moving towards the films) were The Bride (locket on the dress), Merman (conch), FORNICUS LORD OF BONDAGE AND PAIN (the sphere), sugar plum fairy (music box) and then the redneck zombies

    kevin sounds like it'd just be a jason joke

    I kinda was hoping it'd be Kevin from the American Office.

    Oh, and the '98 American failure. Anyone have a guess what it's a reference to, if anything? Sounded like The Faculty to me.
