The Cabin in the Woods is one of the most unforgettable horror movies you will ever see. Though, that's not to confuse it with one of the absolute best horror movies you will ever see. Now, adding that caveat is not to imply that the film, written by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard (and directed by the latter), isn't good enough to be one of the best horror movies you'll ever see, it's just that it needs the kind of perspective only years can give before anyone throws that kind of grandiose praise on it. But unforgettable, that's indisputable.

GK's brother is pretty much my compass when it comes to horror. He's never led me astray.

Didn't know Joss Whedon was involved...I like his stuff.

I'm still trying to find the the appeal to critics based on the previews.

Don't get me wrong, I'm totally stoked cause I love horror movies but i can't figure out why critics are giving it do much praise.

[TimeForGuinness]

Why are good movies getting praise from critics?!...story at 11.

Lol so much praise for a horror movie is what I mean. Thus movie reminds me if saw.

The first Saw was cool...the next 7 were not.

Agreed.

Nope.

I don't trust your opinion since you blasted Transformers 3.

(yes I know they're horrible movies, but I do love me some transforming fighting robots)

I think he means the first one wasn't good, which I'd agree with. IMO - cheesy direction, horrible acting and so-so writing carried by a good concept.
