Why You Should See CABIN IN THE WOODS, Even If You're Not Usually a Horror Fan

FYI, I'm working on a spoiler-laden review, but this post is spoiler-FREE. Yes, even this photo, which is from the first scene in the movie and which I post here as an example of the fact that this movie is not what you might think it is.

Not a weird question at all, but a complicated one, as I feel the quality of the gore in something like Hostel - where it's so intimate and sadistic - makes it very different from the gore here, regardless of the quantity.

But given your references, I'd say this movie is about a 3. And the quality/style of it is more along the lines of Evil Dead 2 or Shaun of the Dead. (though not, in my opinion, quite as gory as either of those).

Yesssss, this movie! I've seen it twice now and will probably score a few more viewings through dragging other people to it.

I love Fran Kranz. He's excellent.

I really want to see it again. I also really want a screencap of the whiteboard. :D
