Part of Midnight Movies
Curt (Chris Hemsworth) and a rambunctious group of college friends steal away for a weekend of debauchery in an isolated cabin, only to be attacked by horrific supernatural creatures in a night of endless terror. Sound familiar? Just wait. As the teens begin to exhibit standard horror movie behavior, a group of technicians in a control room are manipulating every move they make! With their efforts continually thwarted by the all-powerful eye in the sky, do they have any chance of escape?
“Taking its cue from Michael Haneke's deeper, crueler FUNNY GAMES, THE CABIN IN THE WOODS explores why we-sicko viewers-take pleasure in the suffering of others.” —Laura Kern, Film Comment “A horror movie embedded in a conspiracy flick embedded in another horror movie-the most inventive cabin-in-the-woods picture since THE EVIL DEAD and the canniest genre deconstruction since SCREAM.” —Christopher Orr, The Atlantic “If you like nutty energy, wacky ideas, crisp dialogue and scary, bloody, gory, grotesque and twisted movies - man, are you going to have a blast this weekend.” —Tom Long, Detroit News
