Refreshing change of direction

Rating: 9/10 (17 June 2012)

I had been awaiting this release for sometime, and considering my reluctance to watching slasher type movies, I was surprised by the depth this film travelled. Amusing in places and also twists that left you trying to figure out where the movie was headed. I am sadly the type who sits and figures out the plot very early on, and maybe this is due to my movie addiction, but sitting there I was surprised at every turn this movie hit me with and the crescendo of an end that left me wanting more. The casting was good. Chris Hemsworth though needs to be offered juicier roles as this movie doesn't stretch him enough. The Cabin in the Woods I will admit now to being one of my all time horror favourites.
