Show me tits and I'll give you high score (The Cabin in the Woods)
I was really looking forward to see The Cabin in the Woods, but when I’ve finally did I was disappointed. The scenario is such a piece of crap that I can’t imagine how somebody could approve production. We have ancient evil god who needs to receive human blood sacrifices from five people, so group (I wonder who was financing them as they seemed to have endless funds) devoted to keep evil out of the world has made some kind of computer-altered environment (rip off from Hunger Games) and are luring innocent people there. Then they’re making them playing some sort of reality game where person can decide about his own destiny by making correct (or incorrect) choices. However even when two hostages manage to survive they still send armed men to kill them:) But that’s not the end of it, to keep evil imprisoned is so important that they have several backup plans. Similar games are happening at the same time in other countries, main action is taking place in USA. This thread however is underused in the movie, and it’s a pity as Asian edition looked promising, and I don’t really know why it was even included. Not to mention that I was wondering how they would get blood from these other countries to US where god/demon is based.
OK, so plot is a crap. It’s so ridiculous that I’m sure it wasn’t created by normal mind. But unfortunately other aspects are not better. Well, special effects are quite alright. And monsters are cool, except mermaid (or merman). There were scenes which looked good and I would like to see them in some better horror movie. But general feeling is bad and I was bored to death. Actors are not better and I really wonder why Thor wanted to take part in this. Not that I think that he’s good actor or anything, but I believe he can do better.
And this brings us to the subject of this post. This picture has 7.6/10 score on IMDB. And I’m asking why?! The only reason I can find is this blond girl showing her tits and dancing like a stripper. So probably teenagers enjoyed it. But if you’re not sex hungry person, or at least don’t need it in horror movie, you can easily skip this position. It’s not worth your time. And it’s real pity that somebody is willing to invest money in such things when could make really decent horror instead.
