A group of young friends decide to take a small trip to a secluded cabin in the middle of the woods, where not everything is as it appears to be. . .

Sound familiar? Although it seems like the stereotypical plot for most cabin-in-the-wood horror flicks, don’t let the title fool you, Drew Goddard’s The Cabin in the Woods turns that sub-genre completely on its head.

Bringing something refreshing and completely unexpected (as well as classic horror tropes) for all audiences, this is a tale of terror like you’ve never seen before, get involved.
