Cabin in the Woods Review

Cabin in the Woods written by Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon couldn’t wholly be classified as a horror film, which is what I thought it was initially, instead, in true Whedon style, it blends elements of horror, comedy and the supernatural into a completely unique and imaginative solid script which unfortunately cant be discussed in too much detail without giving away the main premise of the movie, all I can say its that it’s pretty meta.

Please don’t give up reading now though as Elizabeth Olsen plays a character so far removed from the types her sisters portray that you might actually second guess if they were related at all.

Brandon’s life is unceremoniously turned upside down when his younger sister Sissy Sullivan played by Carey Mulligan enters the fore.
