    A Cabin in the Woods is one of the best horror movies that year it came out, and it was the 1st or 2nd film that the guy that plays Thor was in. Perfect Getaway may have been 1st.

    Not bad.

    Hey, I watched that awhile ago. Did you think it was a take on other popular horror movies?? Been awhile but I think I thought that at the time but never looked into it. You jogged my fading memory.

    It has a similar beginning as Evil Dead. (Another good movie)

    Cabin in the Woods was absolutely a take/homage/parody of a lot of horror movies. The whole idea of appeasing the Old Gods using tropes that we see all the time in horror movies is funny. It explains a lot of them and their odd patterns. It was very meta when you realize that WE are the "Old Gods" they're trying to appease.

    Maybe my favorite subtle joke in that movie was the betting board on what horrible thing would be summoned:

    All of those usual monsters, evil things, scary things... and... Kevin? Kevin? OHHH!!!!

    We watched Premonition starring Sandra Bullock. Decent mildly supernatural mystery.

    This is what made the whole movie so freaking great IMO.

    Watched Nun 2 finally last night. It was ok, I thought better in some aspects than the 1st one, but not great. Some cool parts.
