      Cabin in the Woods is fine art.

      10/10 Premise 10/10 Execution

      I’m helping my teenager get through all the horror tropes so we can watch Cabin in the Woods together.

      Yeah, so much more there, they set up a very good universe to explore a tiny sand grain of it.

        I feel like everything was explained. I’m not left with any lingering questions about why or how any of it happened

            Ancient being that brings about the end of the world if his terror is not fed. Lives at the center of the world.

              Why does it want to destroy the earth?

              Why does human(seemingly insignificant) murder mean anything to it‽

              What’s the significance behind the time frame?

              Why do the humans need to be murdered by strange beats?

        That’s a great point. It would be fun to see a G rated fantasy film that happens to exactly follow the rules to be a Cabin in the Woods prequel.

        (Same enforcement of common tropes from much happier genres, but implying that the underlying reason is the same…)

      I feel like it would’ve been a little better if they held off on the reveal that it was staged for a bit, but it’s been ages since I’ve seen it. I remember enjoying it though.
