Is it Sci-Fi? Horror? Fantasy? I don’t know but the trailer is thrilling and certainly piqued my interest. The Cabin in the Woods seems a confusing mess with elements of Dreamcatcher, Cabin Fever, Star Trek and even Halloween, among others, all mixed together.

Goddard’s work stretches the envelope beyond recognition, but, with Joss Whedon’s strong presence (and balance), The Cabin in the Woods could be that most unusual film: one that blends genres to make a synergistic whole. Whedon’s Firefly/Serenity did that brilliantly. It bodes well that SXSW has chosen it for opening night!
I’m cautiously optimistic even after having seen the trailer. Check it out:
