The Cabin In The Woods is a new movie from Joss Whedon, the creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly. It stars Chris Hemsworth from Thor and looks brilliant.

I love films like The Cabin In The Woods. Classic movies such as Cube, Cloverfield, Saw, The Truman Show; they all have an element of mystery which we somewhat share with the characters.

For this reason some are complaining The Cabin In The Woods isn’t very original, but I’d argue against that. Just because it uses similar plot devices to other movies doesn’t mean it’s stealing or copying their ideas.

The Cabin In The Woods movie trailer has me sold. I already know I’ll be heading out to see the flick when it’s released in theaters on April 13.
