The title of "The Cabin in the Woods" seems to make people guess which deep mountain jungle hut is hiding the weird perverted murderers or ghosts and demons. The beginning of the movie is peaceful and bright. The scene is in a place like a research institute or some base. People are dressed neatly and cleanly, which makes people mistakenly think that the story is opened.

Be patient and watch, and then talk about two women, three men, and five young people driving on their own weekend vacations. Seeing them pack up their things and get on the car, when the car drove towards the deep mountains and forests, many scenes from movies they had seen flashed in their minds, guessing that they were getting lost in the old fashion or encountering strange things in the mountains. It wasn't until their car got into a tunnel in the big mountain that an eagle flew past the cliff outside, but the eagle hit something and instantly shattered and disappeared, and they felt that the story was not so routine and simple.

The scene returned to the bright base, it turned out that this was a "behind the scenes" group. It was they who controlled these five young people to enter the deep mountain hut and stage a "horror reality show" for others to see. At that moment, I thought the movie was imitating "The Hunger Games."

Continue reading to understand that all guesses are wrong. The stereotyped way of thinking makes me think that one or two of the five people will definitely survive and defeat the controller, leaving them unsuccessful. But no, some people were brutally killed soon. The last girl left is also facing the fierce and powerful zombies. The controller felt no suspense and began to celebrate the carnival. As a result, one of the male characters did not die, and rescued the girl and escaped into the elevator box of the operator.

In the transparent elevator box, they saw more monsters and demons outside, each being packed in more elevator boxes. And one of the types they encountered was the one they unintentionally triggered their choice in the cabin.

The climax of the film also began here. When things were not as the controller wanted, they sent personnel with nuclear guns and live ammunition. As a result, not only were they not caught, they also released all the monsters in the elevator box.

There was chaos in an instant, and the climax of terror was like a flood opening the gate. The strange thing is that there was a hint of pleasure in my heart when watching those monsters tearing up all the personnel of the controller. Don't say that you are not merciful, this is called self-inflict, and you can't live. Of course, it is more important to know that it is just a sci-fi illusion in the film.

In the end, it was realized that these five young people were chosen by the manipulator to worship the ancient giant. The mysterious organization that controls all of this must provide horror scenes with contestants selected from all over the world, and finally hope that the horror monsters will kill all the contestants, in order to sacrifice to the underground gods and save humans all over the world.

This is a form similar to throwing sesame seeds in exchange for watermelon, but using a living person to exchange the lives of other people, is it also a terrifying and inhumane act in itself? If, in the face of disasters, someone volunteered to stand up and sacrifice the ego to save all mankind, it would be a kind of poignant, moving and righteous. But what is the difference between the behavior of using this method in exchange for more human lives and those monsters?

At the end of the movie, the ritual fails, and the world and mankind will end. The hostess snorted exhaustedly and said: "Humans, it's time to give other species a chance..."

Indeed, if human beings do whatever they can to survive and control the same kind of life like ants, and smile to see them being pinched to death, then they are more terrifying and terrifying than monsters. Since they are of the same kind, they must unite and love each other as a whole. If they kill each other and persecute each other, and abandon and use each other, then human beings may really disappear as described in the film and be occupied by other species.

As a horror movie, the horror scenes in this movie are scary and exciting.

And the story of the film is thought-provoking.

In addition, friends who are afraid of blood should not choose to open it easily.

The Cabin in the Woods quotes

  • Marty: Statistical fact. Cops will never pull over a man with a huge bong in his car. Why? They fear this man. They know he sees further than they... and he will bind them... with ancient logics.

    Hadley: Okay, who's still out?
