Cabin of the Hollywood

Rating: 2/10 (9 June 2013)

Let's just throw away all the action leading up to the movie's true focus, the last act. In general, the movie until the end part is either boring and repetitive formula for some while others may find that same formula satisfying to the umpteenth time. It's completely unoriginal if not for the twist, which could've been more effective if shrouded until the end, but the makers of this art decided to construe a sitcom to compliment the horror side of the film. I refer to the scenes where the antagonists who ran the operation impersonate contemporary sitcom. So it's purposely campy but loses its integrity as a horror movie because of that.
The plot twist, namely the last act, is the movie's identity. It makes or breaks the film and apparently, success came because of it. The movie performed well at the box office and a lot of the public seemed to approve. I found the last act to be mildly entertaining solely because of all the monster appearances and the carnage that came with them. However, it is a total rush job so little effort of generating scares or thrills comes forth. Other than that, the whole plot conclusion may work on an entertainment level but fails to do so on a cerebral one. The film severely lacks cinematic ingenuity, narration depth, and likable characters. Unless you can enjoy a movie solely on genre and concept, this one is just too silly to deserve any serious praise.
