Well here is me doing the whole joke telling thing

I think it's pretty rad so did all of these fine people. Granted I'm biased. Like super biased. Anyway enjoy your weekend which this will hopefully facilitate and if it doesn't keep it to yourself as really self aggrandizement is what the internet is all about. And I'll be back with my reviews of Think Like a Man and the Lucky... I'm not even buying that and I'm writing it. Yeah.

So that happened - Cabin in the Woods Review.

It was awesome. That's really about it. If you're looking for an enjoyable and incredibly meta rumination on genre fare that is both all encompassing with clever dialogue and that is rather funny, go see it.

Granted, it was not traditionally scary really, but I did get some decent jumps in. Pretty much, a cogent review analyzing the greater over arching themes of the film would greatly diminish your enjoyment imaginary reader. So with that in mind, I feel that keeping it terse would really be appropriate. Pretty much, every review I've read of it has been accurate. It is fundamentally what would happen if you took the self aware snark of the original Scream and applied it to the entirety of the horror genre: the entirety. You take that and then you frame it with an interesting and logical (as much as can exist in horror films) overall narrative. To get into any more detail would spoil some of the more amusing moments in the film. To do this would rob you of the overall enjoyment of the film hence the intentional vagueness.

However, the film has some very minor faults which are as follows. 1) Yes, apparently you do have to spell everything out for the modern American film audience: nature of the beast. Judging by comments made by other theater goers outside of the Sunday late show...some people do need everything explicitly stated to them at the movies. 2) The ad campaign for it really does do the film a disservice: yet again nature of the beast. Pretty much, you have to illustrate the hook in the ads to separate it from the common horror movie. Fortunately it ends there. Problematically though, the campaign, as always, revealed some things to me, too many really. It happens.

All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I feel remiss saying this about a horror movie, but it really was delightful. Yes, I would use the word delightful to describe it. If you love horror movies as I do go see it. Anything else said would diminish the viewing experience. Just try and avoid reading about it on the internet. Try and avoid the rampant spoilers that are around. Go see the movie with an open mind and with reasonable expectations and enjoy it. That's really it; it's really just fun genre eschewing fare that is beyond meta which fits our troubling, disconnected times and has titties in it.
