overall a good film

Rating: 8/10 (10 September 2012)

The Cabin In the Woods is a twist on the classic horror film, it has the 5 stereotypical characters a horror film contains, the virgin, the alpha- male, the flirtatious girl, the drug-addict and the geek. It has a clever, unexpected narrative that gets a little confusing towards the middle, but as the story comes to a close, it is all explained and easily worked out. The film also has a sort of conspiracy theory to it, which makes the film intriguing and makes you want to find out what happens in the end.
However i wouldn't say this film is much of a horror, it doesn't lack the gore, however it does lack the scares that make you jump, which i think let this film down a little. Overall this is a good film, with a fascinating story line, well worth the watch and i would recommend it.
