Refreshingly Original - Horror Fans Must See!

What a refreshing premise! I can't remember the last time I watched a theatrically-released horror movie that I was this thoroughly pleased with. It's just so different, the kind of self-aware movie that changes your perspective on every similar film that follows it. Is it particularly scary? No, not really, but the originality it brings to the table more than makes up for that. CABIN IN THE WOODS manages to walk a fine line, being self-aware and witty without dissolving into parody. The performances are strong, the effects are fantastic, and the third act is so mind-bendingly awesome that every horror movie fanatic simply must see it at least once. Fantastic! 4/4
