Title: The Cabin in the Woods (2012)
Post by: Goaty on 05 December, 2011, 08:42:24 PM
It new "horror" film about "A group of college kids spend a weekend at a mysterious cabin in the woods."

BUT you will love the tagline; You Think You Know The Story?

The ending does looks like [spoiler]2000AD story, Thirteen? [/spoiler]

It was finished filming back in 2009, but finally out next year three years later!

So reviews been positives as on this poster... out on 13th April.

Also this is Lionsgate's release, hopefully Dredd trailer with it or not...?

This is one of the few fims I have waiting for so long, in anticipation.

It was originally set to release 3 years ago, but the powers that be wanted a 3D version. Unfortunately, it was filmed with non 3D cameras meaning it had to be converted in post production. That takes a long time. Also heard it was hit by financial problems. Good to know it's out soon.

Written by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard, it should be good.

I think Chris Hemworth was in this film, before going onto Thor which made him famous.

Sorry but this is brilliant poster!

Out this Friday the 13th, hopefully Dredd trailer with it, as it's Lionsgate film!

Everyone who has seen this keeps telling me not to read anything about it, not to look at trailers, not to read reviews. I hate it when people do that because it only makes me WANT to go and do those things, when I wasn't that bothered before they started going on about it.

I'm holding out so far so I:m not going to read your review Evil Pants....but damned if I'm not incredibly tempted....

Don't read any reviews, friends warn me.

Saw this with the missus on sat night- really, really enjoyed it. It's a rare occasion when a genre film can pleasantly surprise you, so I would heartedly recommend it; a gushing 9/10!
Also, as Goaty mentioned, best not to y'know [spoiler][/spoiler]'Dark Judges in DoC'[spoiler][/spoiler] spoil it by reading an informative or overzealous review.

It was good fun but the whole premise didn't really add up.

I can't really go into it without spoiling it. How do you do that text disguising thing again?

Watched this Wednesday night. It's an enjoyable film and had some laugh out loud moments and a few decent jumps.

The [spoiler]behind the scene team making everything happen[/spoiler] was a nice touch and brought something different to the [spoiler]by the numbers kids in the cabin scenes[/spoiler].

When it finally kicked off, [spoiler]when the system was purged and it all went mental[/spoiler], that was genuinely scary and the best bit of the film.

Worth a watch.
