But I would expect no less from the mind of Joss Wheadon, the man that gave us "Buffy the Vampire Slayer". This is a movie that, like "Scream" did in the 90's, deconstructs horror movies in an entertaining and rather original way.
Tell me if you've heard this story before. Five teens head out to a secluded cabin in the woods for a weekend of fun, partying and sex. But they're not alone and soon find themselves fighting for their lives as a supernatural force kills them one by one.
Of course this has been done before. Movies like "The Evil Dead" immediately spring to mind. But what makes this movie such a pleasure to watch is that we get to see behind the curtain as it were and see what leads up to the whole situation.
To say more about the machinations that go on behind the scenes would be giving away too much of the plot. Suffice it to say it's a very satisfying explanation as to why we always see the same kinds of horrors going on in our movies.
Recommended for fans of horror, comedy and those that like their movies to be a little different.
