One thing - the Japanese group didn't need the same tropes as the American one did (Virgin, Athlete, Scholar, etc.) because they play specifically on the different cultural horrors and genres. This is why they ha different choices for the monsters as well
I have an idea and this my first time seeing actual scenes from this movie: What if the failures of the scenarios are just metaphors of the audience online giving their own takes on the fates of the casts in multiple horror/slasher/creature films? So when the Gods wake up, then that's a metaphor for the collective audiences demanding fresh ideas for films in general, not just horror. Which is not new I know, considering this film and its message. But this is my two cents.
@@dismantledbrain5910 By the same token, though, you can't say that the bird would be able to sniff out the invisible force field if you don't know how it would behave in real life.
I always thought the early force field reveal made Curt's death funnier. Like if you found out it existed when he died, it would just be shocking, but by letting everyone in on the joke at the beginning you know his dramatic speech is doomed from the start and it's just waiting for the pen to drop. But seriously, this is awesome. I'm always down for Cabin in the Woods love
Amber Friend I agree. Plus, the force field might have just felt cheap if the reveal was held off until that part. Having it appear early helped establish that even crazy far out concepts are fair game.
This movie also is a refernce to every horror movie. there stupid descions. dropping the weapon after one use. the gods refernce us. this movie was a roasting session to every other movie.
I like the forcefield reveal for reasons mentioned here. You need it so Curts death doesn't feel like an ass-pull. Plus, the reveal is so early and a long time lapses before he dies, it's easy to forget the force field is there at all, making the death even better.
I choose to believe "Kevin" is Kevin Mccallister from "Home Alone" and he would rig the cabin up with traps "Saw" style when they all leave for the day.
@@ianjohn2648 I thought they were referencing Kevin from Home Alone too. And that wasn't the only reference to older movies, or a somewhat reference. As he mentions memorabilia from Tom Hanks' older movies at 4:57, I see something that somewhat resembles vollyball Wilson sitting in what somewhat resembles the Zoltar machine
@@alvexok5523 Considering it was Whedon and one of his biggest Buffy/Angel writers it makes sense if there are a lot of pop culture references in there.
@@ianjohn2648 I'm fairly certain that "Giant Snake" is specifically a reference to Buffy. While I know it's a generic monster, there is a running complaint from BtVS fans (and a running joke among the Buffy writers) that way too many terrible-looking giant snake monsters were used on the show.
As it turned out the actor playing martin was . .and i quote . ."Ripped" according to the 10 things you didn't know about the cabin in the woods . .so hes wearing 4 layers of "snuggness" to cover up the fact the actor was in better shape then mighty Thor was, hence the baggy clothing
The whole bit about japan & America having different rules was addressed but the scene was deleted for the final cut. The short story is the horror ritual is region specific, so America has a bunch of zombies, torture demons & demented warped fairy tails & always involves the movie clichés of teens, nude scenes & the virgin either surviving or being last to die. In Japan the horror stories are more often involving children, hauntings, ghosts & rituals. Basically the gods are picky eaters and want their ritual sacrifices to follow the area specific rules, kind of like how super rich people want their Chinese food to actually come from china.
You wouldn't want your Chinese food to come from China. The ones from Taiwan and HK should be safe, though. Anyway, is there a place to watch the uncut version?
i always thought this, but thought that that's just hte way easch location "worked it out"...like america does nude scenes and teens because thats what they ended up doing that worked, it's a culural thing but because each location worked out the ritual in a way that makes sense to THEM (like, japan didn't do nudity and teens cuz that's not what they thought to try first).
@@imleohi192 That's a dumb point alot of people make. Doesn't mean anything, Still wrong. Here's a good video that can put this into better words than I ever could. ua-cam.com/video/HVjwKCymuMw/v-deo.html TL:DR Being Satire (not ironic) doesn't mean you're Immune to criticism
Yes!! That sin pissed me off so much, and it fits in with the whole movie begin the requirements are cultural horror movie tropes. The little girls being Japan's characters make SOOO much sense because most Japanese horror film's main characters are children (and teens), making it their cliche.
maybe a window is not the same thing as an electro-magnetic field or whatever else that was and surely it was emitting something detectable by a bird. Compared to a window, that can be completely invisible to a nut-sized brain. So there are ways that a bird could detect that and also there are way for a bird to completely miss it.
@@crocodiluQ2 It has nothing to do with the brain size. In fact, birds generally have way better eyesight than us. Slamming into windows happens because of unfamiliarity with man-made objects, just like some people happen to slam into glass door when they don't expect them to be there.
Watch the movie again, they specifically point out why the “high dude” isn’t effected by the chemicals they used to make everyone fall in line........here’s a hint it was because he was the “high dude”
GREAT movie, sin free (except for leaving zero room for a sequel), but I DO wish that Patience & the Sugar Plum Fairy had gotten a lot more screen time. They were my favorite monsters.
Honestly, I went into this movie thinking I would hate it. I thought it would just be a Scream wannabe, or something Saw-like, or just something cliche and stupid. And, shockingly, I loved it! Marty is my favorite character, and I'm glad he technically survived until the end.
Tailslover13 I felt the same way about it so I was in no rush then I saw part of it at a friend's House a liked it so I made myself stop watching till I could see from the beginning and I really was surprised and loved it
Is it just me or can anyone else sense teh Scooby Doo vibe here? Blonde is Daphne, Red is Welma, Thor is Fred, Stoner is Shaggy and the other guy Scooby :D They even have a van :D
The reason that the eagle flying into the grid makes sense is because by the time you get to the part where curt has to jump it, so much has happened in such little time that most people forgot that it was even there. I watched it with my parents, 2 brothers and 2 of my parents friends in our living room, and we all had forgotten that it was there
Only thing I hated about the movie was the ending so I felt the need to share what I thought the proper ending should've been. The proper ending: Dana is actually killed by the werewolf (HOW'D SHE SURVIVE GETTING MAULED??) With the Director now chastising Marty for being selfish and telling him the world would end in less than a minute. As the seconds tick away, both are amazed to find nothing happens. The Director then realizes that Marty was the true Virgin and Dana, the fool(she foolishly read the passage to set the zombies on them in the first place). Now they are left together to escape the facility filled with monsters as the credits roll.
After working out the kinks of the original movie (e.g. everyone dies at the end..) this has the premise for a great tv series. Despite the gore, I would LOVE to see how each summoned creature would go about killing the groups and /eventually/ having the compound be raided as a final, dramatic end. How can a producer show the viewers all those badass monsters and not expect us to want more?
Lyssa Driscoll ikr ever since the movie came out i was like wtf i want to see that monster kill people. oh wtf look at that one. there were so many choices
Agreed. I love supernatural creature lore, and it's interesting to see how each movie or show takes it, this would be something I'd look forward to if they made this into a TV show.
If they make a TV show, it should be based on the facility and their annual attempts. Some they get, some they f*** up. And of course, a different monster every episode.
"Does the zombie torture family have to stab something before vital organs"......its there in the name. They don't stab vitals because they TORTURE people, if they died quickly then they can't exactly torture them near as much now can they? *DING*
No. I'm pretty sure me and Rixoli are right on this one. It's a Zombie Torture Family not a Zombie Tortured Family. Zombie Torture Family implies that the whole family tortures. Zombie Tortured family would imply most (Possibly All) were tortured. Do ya see where I'm coming from?
im gonna have to give cinemaCins a sin for saying the zombie was working out his biceps at 12:25 when he does a military press with Dana. which hits shoulders and triceps
There is totally a difference between witch and sexy witch, the trick is that it's not YOUR perspective of the witch that matters but her own. A regular witch can look anywhere from an old woman to some creepy bog monster lady and uses curses, nature magic, rituals etc, and whether or not that gets you off is fine. But a SEXY witch is specifically one that knows she's sexy and operates more like a succubus by seducing people and using "lust" themed magic. It's kind of like, a witch is to a sexy with what Predator is to Sil. They're both aliens, but Sil is specifically a Sexy alien.
Get alife? sais the man called TRON, someone who named themselves after a Z-Class horror film based upon the ideas of "what if a pile of mediocre direction got a budget.", were talking about proper topics here matey, Just because you don't get sexy witches doesn't mean you've got to be salty.
except they skip too much of it, like how the skipt the part where a vial of blood is broken by the machine to fill the drawing lines and though the blood came from the people killed? **ding**
I'm almost positive that the blood that gets drained into the sacrifice isn't their blood. I'm almost positive there's a scene during the first kill that shows the lever triggering a contraption inside that looks like a little hammer shattering a vial with blood in it. It's probably pre collected blood from before hand that they swindled from them somehow.
While I agree on the second part of the sin, I have to disagree with the first. Birds, even majestic Bald Eagles, will fly into clear barriers. Because, you know, they don't smell like anything. Windows have killed millions of birds. It's sort of a thing. If you can be nitpicky, so can I.
Birds can't see glass. but I have no idea if this would count as glass. Honestly, we have no idea if the bird would have been able to spot this or not.
this is actually a really good point. most birds are remarkably adept at detecting electromagnetic fields. but maybe i'm overanalyzing. i love this movie, because i can only point out small flaws in it rather than gaping plot holes.
I watched this for a film class and I feel like some of the metaphor went over your head. WE are the gods, the audience and the critics. WE need to be satisfied, and that includes tropes in each story, otherwise we pull the plug on a series.
I guess that makes sense I was mad at the ending 😂 I guess I'm the evil pissed off at the movie because how dare this super advanced SCP style group get foiled by a f*cking stoner!!! God that's stupid!!!! 🤣
the Japanese don't use the same archetypes as the Americans because they explain that "every culture is different", that's why a lot of Japanese horror involves schoolgirls.... probably.
I love Japanese horror movies because there's often a "You can defeat the monster/demon/ghost/etc. some way, but you need to solve the mystery or discover its origin story to do so!" theme that makes the movies more exciting and fulfilling than simply, "Roar, monster! Kill it, don't die! Oops, you died. The end!" that many American movies tend to follow.
Considering it's a Joss Whedon movie, I knew right away I'd like it. Sure, he didn't direct it, but Drew Goddard did, who was a staple in Joss's Buffy/Angel crew, and they both wrote it.
"Experienced CinemaSins writers miss (or deliberately ignore, to rack up sins) the clearly shown mechanism smashing a previously filled vial of red liquid that has no relation to the victims actually making the blood outline on the underground representations. Almost like it's part of some sort of ritual. What did you think, some tech is waiting at the bottom of the chasm to drain Thor's blood?"
Why does the blood outline actually fill with some kind of blood, then? Why doesn't it just... shine in acknowledgement that blood was spilled, or something? Is blood really needed at all, or did they decide to hook up some red food coloring to their blood outline thing for dramatic effect?
So a glass vile full of blood is broken above the altar after the appropriate offering had been killed. From that we can infer that this part of the ritual is necessary to indicate that their deaths were an intentional sacrifice to the gods and not an accident. If we go one step further, maybe the blood ville were collected from their respective victims at a prior moment, presumable a medical exam. Either that or there is no need for the blood to belong to the person who just got killed. Also, there is an earthquake when they offer blood to the stoner when he was still alive.
Yeah, pretty sure they have actual blood on hand (hard to say whether from the victims or just random blood) in order to appease the Old Gods. The Old Gods want blood, that's all really. That's why they still react when Marty isn't really dead. They got their blood and they surely heard from this agency that Marty was dead, so they were pleased. I don't think they are intended to be omniscient, so they wouldn't know that he was actually still alive.
I think it was the opposite, Mystic. They rumbled when they smashed the Marty vial because Marty wasn't really dead. They completed his part of the ritual prematurely, angering the Old Gods.
Surely it should be though - character makes "I've never seen/will never see" statement, we instantly know they will either see or be killed by that very thing.
CinemaSins: Showing us the fence now is dumb. CinemaSins, following their own advice: There was no evidence of this fence, it's just there to kill Hemsworth.
Yep. If you imagine the movie without that earlier eagle scene, the Hemsworth scene would've risked being a jump-the-shark moment. Even in a film as balls-out crazy as this, an invisible sci-fi force-fence is a pretty big pill to swallow, maybe because it's implied to be human tech rather than supernatural like everything else. They made the right choice imo to set up the fence early and move swiftly along. Sure, if you're paying attention, it means you totally know what's going to happen to Hemsworth, but the "Don't do it, bro!" anticipation arguably works better than going for a big WTF moment that would end up feeling like a cheap trick on the audience precisely because it hadn't been set up previously. You sort of have to set things up in movies, show that it's a thing, establish the rules, otherwise audiences feel like the film cheated and there are no stakes because it's anything-can-happen time. If there's a problem, it's that the set-up isn't very subtle. It feels like a scene-extension added in post to paper over a problem. Maybe test audiences complained there was no set-up? Besides, anyone who forgot the eagle scene still got their surprise :)
@@blatherskite3009 in other words, you have to make movies for people who don't watch movies. Anyone that's seen a movie before knew that force field was going to fuck with people later. The mistake the movie made was drawing far too much attention to it. It basically went, "Hey, look at this. Remember this."
@@blatherskite3009 I absolutely agree. This is a good instance of dramatic irony. The character doesn't know he's about to die, but those who paid attention already know what will happen. It is actually quite comedic seeing all the build-up for his motorcycle jump just to have known that he will get blocked by the fence.
@@mangopop6217 That's the problem, it's not for people who 'paid attention'. It was for everyone who happened to be near the screen of the movie playing with how much of an unsubtle way they drew attention to it.
Doesn’t change the fact that they don’t tell us what that structure is to clarify. Overall I just want to see a sequel Cabin in the Woods 2: Ghost in the Bathroom
@@EmmaBonn96 they clearly say in the movie that every culture has a different version, so why would they bother to explain their version when the point of the other rituals in the film was only to put pressure on the engineers and raise the stakes when they all failed and it was down to the Americans to stop the ancient ones from rising
I’m so mad he didn’t include the merman death scene😔✌️best part of the movie. Also, he didn’t show the end part with the hand coming out to destroy everyone!
i visited the Universal Studios park and went to the haunted house based on this movie. It was sooooo good and actually scary. they played it like it was after the movie takes place so you get to see all the characters and their deaths all around laid out like easter eggs in a videogame. Like that girls chopped off head and the dude getting eating by the merman. it was awesome!
also this horror movie roasts all the other horror movies. the stupid descions last female surviour, nudes. also in that horror movie we are the gods. the gods are us
Agreed! Especially the way Bradley Whitford says, "Oh, you've gotta be kidding me!" It's such a small moment but absolute gold! Or did he say, "Oh, come on!"? It's been awhile...I think I need to watch this movie again!
@@tatyplummer I believe you when you say "Evil Dead reference," but _Poltergeist_ featured a demonic tree putting its lips and tongue all over a 10-year-old boy. (And I'm of the age where I saw _Poltergeist_ on VHS about 150 times before I ever discovered the _Evil Dead_ movies .)
A lot of this doesn't factor in the very obvious symbolism, in that most everything is in reference to the horror genre as a whole. Also, the blood isn't coming from the campground. It's very blatantly shown that a vial of their blood has already been secretly collected and broken over the bowl that pours it into that ancient carving.
I think the funniest part is that Marty's actor had to wear so many layers of clothing because he was jacked, more buff than Hemsworth, but he's playing the stoner so they had to cover him up
joshua marti from what I know Kevin is your average looking guy, but is a super fucked up killer. Some have speculated that it is or based on the Kevin character from Sin City
They have four layers on Marty because he's supposed to look like a scrawny, nerdy stoner - except the dude is fuckin' ripped. Like as ripped as Hot Chocolate and Thor.
Is it just me (looking at the list 6:04) but does anyone else want to know what/who Kevin is.... bet it's some kid running around the cabin/forest setting up traps for what he can only presume are five robbers in his home.
2:29 I actually found the later scene to be much better already knowing the wall was there. In a space where I would normally have been rolling my eyes and asking why the guy was taking so long to jump I was in a fit of nerves about him dying as well as excitement about seeing how it would happen. The scene was far more enjoyable to me knowing the wall was there. It shouldn't be labelled a mistake, that production team knew exactly what they were doing when they added that part in.
Well, both sides of the argument have merit, really. In my opinion, it would have been better if they only showed something that _hinted_ at the wall, something only noticeable by the very observant on first viewing, but plainly obvious to all in later viewings. For example, say on the outside of the wall, we see leaves on trees blowing in the wind, but on the inside, none of the leaves are even stirring.
EXACTLY. When I first saw that scene, I was saying in the theater (out loud), "Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Oh, shit." Other people I've talked to had forgotten about the wall, making it even more epic.
The chick straight up says that she's sleeping in the camper if the cabin, that they've never been to, is too shitty and gross inside. Hence the reason they drove it, plus room for everyone and their luggage, plus his motorcycle mounted to the back.
The story about Marty wearing all the clothing layers is based on the fact that the actor was hired to play a shiftless stoner but he is actually jacked and they were forced to hide this fact in order to make him fit the character profile and keep him in the movie. Pretty cool if you ask me. Edit: Had to fix a typo.
I'm surprised Cinemasins doesn't realize that we the audience are the gods, that's why we demand nude scenes here in america and for an R rating otherwise the movie sucks. Its different for Japanese horror films because they have their own style and has different ways of doing things. So the audience are referred to as gods.
Sesshomaru: usually cinema sins takes movies for their literal meaning, and not their deeper meaning, even though they know what it's supposed to mean. In the description it says that they love this movie.
If you're gonna apply this logic you'd have to take a shitton of sin away because this movie is a parody and almost all the actual sins were intentional.
Then it should be "seductive witches" because "sexy" is a product of the mind of the observer, whereas "seductive" is a product of the actions of the subject. Anyway, anyone who's ever been in a halloween shop knows "sexy witch" = witch costume that shows more skin.
@@athirkell well maybe not the people on the cabin but whoever label them as sexy witches would have to have found them sexy. so I get what you're saying now they pick that scenario sexy which is what it came out whether the people in the cabin thought they're sexy or not. But somebody who runs the program. They were runs the program must have named that group of witches sexy which is, therefore somebody thought they were sexy.
Apparently it was originally supposed to exist in the Left 4 Dead universe, but Valve was scared of video game movies so they refused the tie-in. You can even see the Boomer and Witch in the scene with all the monster cages.
Everyone complains about the button that releases all the monsters. You know what? If MY black ops site/Ancient God Shrine was compromised somehow, and there was no way to get it back, guess what button I'd push?
Of course, because it's not like you can set up a bomb with high-powered explosives in such a way that it converts all the energy into one massive explosion to look like an accident.
"Is the Director some badass older woman capable of taking on this rather young man?" *I'll have you know that Sigourney Weaver was kicking Alien asses when this kid was in diapers*

@@Kat-xy7fm Basically you'd have to be a virgin. Which would be big trouble in this day and age if unicorns were real. SCP foundation wiki has one having to do with the goblin market where dust from a unicorn's horn reverses the effects of intercourse including making the woman's hymen grow back. The horror part of it includes killing already existing children. Like taking half their DNA away and probably leaving them in a puddle of goo. Sorry, I got sidetracked there. Point is, you'd have to be a virgin. Like the movie legend, the couple kissed but didn't have intercourse.
@@graciegj63 Holy shit I love when people with no concept of anatomy write dumb shit about virginity. "Grow back the hymen" jfc it's a small flap meant to keep dirt out of the vag. It stretches. If it gets torn it just heals itself. It's not like the seal on a bottle of vitamins. That said, unicorn legends are varied since they exist across such a large number of cultures, but in the virgin-based mythology, nah bro, kissing is still too much for a unicorn. Also you generally have to be pretty. Luckily, they hate lions, so a good Security Lion will have you covered.
The cabin in the woods is most certainly one of the smartest movies in existence. It's basically the scream franchise,but with a much more fresh,updated,and complex story that knows how to catchyour attention. I really love it's cast and the way it makes fun of its tropes and cliches unbeknownst that the whole film means so much more than it actually is. It is most certainly one of the biggest representations of all horror films.
Eli Persky I was looking for this comment! The Japanese trope oftentimes has schoolchildren involved. I'm sure if we got more than just snips of failures from other places, this would be more clear to viewers
The Japanese setting doesn't need things the American setting needs, it's about the regional horror tropes being what's needed in said regions. American tropes aren't remotely the same as Japanese horror tropes, so the school setting is perfectly fine for the Japanese team. It's also why I end up liking most Japanese horror over most American horror movies these days, but of course there are exceptions.
He said a cousin of some capacity. It's possible for someone to have no first cousins, but impossible for someone to have absolutely none, be it through marriage or just distant relatives.
The505Guys I know my cousins up to my 5th cousins beyond that I am not familiar with them. I do know on my father's side some of them are in Sweden and some are in Germany everything past that is beyond me.
That's because that's the point the movie is trying to make. The ancient ones indeed is the audience, the cabin is the horror movie, the facility is Hollywood. the reason why Sigourney Weaver said that it doesn't matter for the Ancient Ones if Dana is a virgin, as long as acts like The Virgin, is because it's like that in real life! You don't care about the actor's life, you care about the character they play!
There's a flaw in that argument though. If the requirements differ based on culture, then why are the gods of other cultures satisfied if the gods of only one country receive their sacrifice. If they're the same gods no matter which country, then why are different rituals useful? There are logical explanations, but they weren't provided in the movie.
Man, the Gods are gambling addicts, they keep saying, "Yeah, my team is gonna score great this year, and you'll be humiliated hahahaha". So as long as one of then score, they can brag about the other and everyone keeps entertained, but if no one scores, well, then hell break loose, actualy like in the movie.
Because the gods are the audience. The actual audience. You, the viewers. This movie relies on horror movie tropes and the gods are the audience, who based on geography, prefer different tropes in their horror movie films. Each country has a different set of tropes tied to it that is compelling to movie goers in that region. In America when you go to a horror flick, especially in the 70-90's you expected certain things to happen, those expectations are shown throughout the film. Whenever they reference the audience, they're referencing you, the demographic that goes to these films and what you want.
Jakk Frost That’s not a flaw in the argument. The gods need to be satisfied, that’s all. Each of these rituals are ways to satisfy them. Like how if I were hungry I’d just need a meal, but I wouldn’t expect the same ingredients in a hamburger that I would in a bowl of General tso’s or a salad. Either one would work, but they all have to be prepared different ways
One thing - the Japanese group didn't need the same tropes as the American one did (Virgin, Athlete, Scholar, etc.) because they play specifically on the different cultural horrors and genres. This is why they ha different choices for the monsters as well
Literally the only reason I came to the comments.
Bee Kim it's not just obvious, it's explicitly stated. Sure, sin the statement, but...

You know, after the premiere of this movie, the directors were asked if there would be a sequel...
Who's Kevin?
Kevin = Elijah Wood's character in Sin City
TXF but what about the angry molesting tree
As it turned out the actor playing martin was . .and i quote . ."Ripped" according to the 10 things you didn't know about the cabin in the woods . .so hes wearing 4 layers of "snuggness" to cover up the fact the actor was in better shape then mighty Thor was, hence the baggy clothing

Really!!! Never would’ve known that! Damn
Lol
@Iain Kerr Yeah, no shit sherlock, completely irrelevant to the original comment.
I looked it up, he's certainly in great shape but he's nowhere near Chris Hemsworth when it comes to muscles. Like not even a competition.

ikr
I thought so. When he was complaining about the four layers that was the moment I realised the actor had thick arms and his chest looked buff.
Holy fucking shit you’re right
The whole bit about japan & America having different rules was addressed but the scene was deleted for the final cut.
The short story is the horror ritual is region specific, so America has a bunch of zombies, torture demons & demented warped fairy tails & always involves the movie clichés of teens, nude scenes & the virgin either surviving or being last to die. In Japan the horror stories are more often involving children, hauntings, ghosts & rituals.
Basically the gods are picky eaters and want their ritual sacrifices to follow the area specific rules, kind of like how super rich people want their Chinese food to actually come from china.
You wouldn't want your Chinese food to come from China. The ones from Taiwan and HK should be safe, though. Anyway, is there a place to watch the uncut version?
i always thought this, but thought that that's just hte way easch location "worked it out"...like america does nude scenes and teens because thats what they ended up doing that worked, it's a culural thing but because each location worked out the ritual in a way that makes sense to THEM (like, japan didn't do nudity and teens cuz that's not what they thought to try first).
Damn this pretty much sums up ever single GOD-DAMN horror movie ever
Kaiju... 'Nough said!

The movie specifically said that the requirements vary according to the culture, dude!

TL:DR Being Satire (not ironic) doesn't mean you're Immune to criticism
Yes!! That sin pissed me off so much, and it fits in with the whole movie begin the requirements are cultural horror movie tropes. The little girls being Japan's characters make SOOO much sense because most Japanese horror film's main characters are children (and teens), making it their cliche.

Dude, have you SEEN bird around glass windows?
I've seen hawks with a 5 foot wingspan slam into windows.
Have you ever seen a bird break its neck because it didn't see a window? What "danger?" The bird didn't see it. Simple.
maybe a window is not the same thing as an electro-magnetic field or whatever else that was and surely it was emitting something detectable by a bird. Compared to a window, that can be completely invisible to a nut-sized brain. So there are ways that a bird could detect that and also there are way for a bird to completely miss it.
@@crocodiluQ2 It has nothing to do with the brain size. In fact, birds generally have way better eyesight than us.
Slamming into windows happens because of unfamiliarity with man-made objects, just like some people happen to slam into glass door when they don't expect them to be there.
@@crocodiluQ2 what exactly is it you think such a device would "emit" that would be detectable by a bird?
Really wished you’d shown more of the high dude being smarter than everyone else. He was the most reasonable person in this movie
Watch the movie again, they specifically point out why the “high dude” isn’t effected by the chemicals they used to make everyone fall in line........here’s a hint it was because he was the “high dude”
Lol..agreed
GREAT movie, sin free (except for leaving zero room for a sequel), but I DO wish that Patience & the Sugar Plum Fairy had gotten a lot more screen time. They were my favorite monsters.
Honestly, I went into this movie thinking I would hate it. I thought it would just be a Scream wannabe, or something Saw-like, or just something cliche and stupid. And, shockingly, I loved it! Marty is my favorite character, and I'm glad he technically survived until the end.
Tailslover13 Maybe that's because he is the only one to notice all the bullshit?
Tailslover13 I felt the same way about it so I was in no rush then I saw part of it at a friend's House a liked it so I made myself stop watching till I could see from the beginning and I really was surprised and loved it
Same here. I thought it would be a random avarage horror flick, but I ended up loving it because of the twist.
As a Joss Whedon fan, I had high expectations from the beginning. I was glad I was right, had the Joss humor along with the horror.
He missed my favorite part. When he finally got to meet the mermaid, it was so dramatic. I was dying laughing when i saw that part.
Cinema sins: how the hell us that stoner still moving. Also cinema sins : how did this old lady overpower this young strong healthy man?!
Right?!!
That's one sin.
Welcome to cinemasins. The channel is full of lies, hypocrasy and general idiocy masquerading as comedy.
Marty has already killed a security guard in the elevator. By in movie logic, he should have no issues with an older lady.
Because the old lady is played by Sigourney Weaver
Is it just me or can anyone else sense teh Scooby Doo vibe here? Blonde is Daphne, Red is Welma, Thor is Fred, Stoner is Shaggy and the other guy Scooby :D They even have a van :D

“Thor”
If the stoner was shaggy the ancient ones never would've came back up out of fear.
Damn this is such a good observation lol
The reason that the eagle flying into the grid makes sense is because by the time you get to the part where curt has to jump it, so much has happened in such little time that most people forgot that it was even there. I watched it with my parents, 2 brothers and 2 of my parents friends in our living room, and we all had forgotten that it was there
And the bird flying into the grid is a little something called setup and payoff.
true but if u know anything about movies in general (chekovs gun) your gonna know that its gonna be used at some point, idk it stuck with me
Only thing I hated about the movie was the ending so I felt the need to share what I thought the proper ending should've been.
The proper ending:
Dana is actually killed by the werewolf (HOW'D SHE SURVIVE GETTING MAULED??) With the Director now chastising Marty for being selfish and telling him the world would end in less than a minute. As the seconds tick away, both are amazed to find nothing happens. The Director then realizes that Marty was the true Virgin and Dana, the fool(she foolishly read the passage to set the zombies on them in the first place). Now they are left together to escape the facility filled with monsters as the credits roll.
Chris Stark Love it
I'd just have loved if a L4D Witch came in and they all collectively whisper 'Fuck' at the same time and run like hell
you made me wipe my screen dammit
I love your idea for the ending! LOL!
And the ritual is still successful because the virgin (Marty) outlasted her.
you noticed deadites from evil dead but not the angry molesting tree? dropping the ball man.
Sophie Talia don't forget Kevin
Sophie Talia I was just about to comment on the same thing 😂
What movies are the angry molesting tree and kevin from?
Angry Molesting Tree is from Evil Dead 2
I suspect Kevin is from Home Alone
The real question is "who the hell is Kevin"?!
Darkeith Lofton or the angry molesting tree
That's a reference to Evil Dead 2 :D
Ooohhh ok
Darkeith Lofton I think it's the Kevin from Sin City
Darkeith Lofton , my guess is "Kevin" is there version of Jason.
Maybe I’m tired but when he said “by god, it better not be another fu*kin infinity stone” I lost it
I hated the ending due to two selfish a holes deciding to end the world
"Are you afraid of unicorns?! YOU WILL BE!!" Had me dying 😂😂😂

Unicorn's are assholes.
John Hall bad puns are a sin (even though it had me laughing)

After working out the kinks of the original movie (e.g. everyone dies at the end..) this has the premise for a great tv series.
Despite the gore, I would LOVE to see how each summoned creature would go about killing the groups and /eventually/ having the compound be raided as a final, dramatic end.
How can a producer show the viewers all those badass monsters and not expect us to want more?
Lyssa Driscoll ikr ever since the movie came out i was like wtf i want to see that monster kill people. oh wtf look at that one. there were so many choices
You may enjoy poking around the universe and lore of SCP then. There's tons of material to go through and it's not unlike the last part of this movie.
Agreed. I love supernatural creature lore, and it's interesting to see how each movie or show takes it, this would be something I'd look forward to if they made this into a TV show.
If they make a TV show, it should be based on the facility and their annual attempts. Some they get, some they f*** up. And of course, a different monster every episode.
Lyssa Driscoll
I was interested in the guy with plastic bags. That was fucking funny.
"Does the zombie torture family have to stab something before vital organs"......its there in the name. They don't stab vitals because they TORTURE people, if they died quickly then they can't exactly torture them near as much now can they? *DING*
I said the same thing the second they sinned that.
I took it as the father tortured his family in the past, and now they all kill people as a family.
No. I'm pretty sure me and Rixoli are right on this one. It's a Zombie Torture Family not a Zombie Tortured Family. Zombie Torture Family implies that the whole family tortures. Zombie Tortured family would imply most (Possibly All) were tortured. Do ya see where I'm coming from?
No.
Clearly you are brainwashed via some form of heresy. Sir Haplo2020.
warlerker, What?
im gonna have to give cinemaCins a sin for saying the zombie was working out his biceps at 12:25 when he does a military press with Dana. which hits shoulders and triceps
lmao
I can hear in his voice screaming "NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERD" lmao
There is totally a difference between witch and sexy witch, the trick is that it's not YOUR perspective of the witch that matters but her own. A regular witch can look anywhere from an old woman to some creepy bog monster lady and uses curses, nature magic, rituals etc, and whether or not that gets you off is fine. But a SEXY witch is specifically one that knows she's sexy and operates more like a succubus by seducing people and using "lust" themed magic. It's kind of like, a witch is to a sexy with what Predator is to Sil. They're both aliens, but Sil is specifically a Sexy alien.
THANK YOU
You've put WAY too much thought into sexy witches... oh well, thumbs up anyway.
get alife moron.
Get alife? sais the man called TRON, someone who named themselves after a Z-Class horror film based upon the ideas of "what if a pile of mediocre direction got a budget.", were talking about proper topics here matey,
Just because you don't get sexy witches doesn't mean you've got to be salty.
...Tron was a horror film? Since when? Not judging it good or bad, but... a horror film?
I honestly watch cinema sins to watch a movie i've never seen before in 17mins or less.
Edit: Thanks for the likes everybody!
OutOfSkool TV That's actually a really good idea xD
except they skip too much of it, like how the skipt the part where a vial of blood is broken by the machine to fill the drawing lines and though the blood came from the people killed? **ding**
You'd be doing yourself a favor by actually watching this one. You've totally spolied it now though. Bad idea imo
Same here. Thought it was a generic 08/15 Horror movie that I wouldnt see anyway. Now i wanna see it xD
I'm not really into gore and horror so this is an easy way to watch a genre i'd never watch
Favorite sin: there better not be another infinity stone in there
Yeah I got a serious laugh out of that one. lol
hahaha same
I'm almost positive that the blood that gets drained into the sacrifice isn't their blood. I'm almost positive there's a scene during the first kill that shows the lever triggering a contraption inside that looks like a little hammer shattering a vial with blood in it. It's probably pre collected blood from before hand that they swindled from them somehow.
Yep! The blood comes from glass vials that are broken when the lever is pulled, not from the victims or zombies themselves.
Yeah it’s just part of the ritual. They are giving blood to the gods while also showing the gods the deaths but the two aren’t directly connected.
funny fact, Marty was in the best shape of the cast so he kept baggy shit on to cover it.
and that coffee bong is super awesome
really? he was such a likeable guy lol

While I agree on the second part of the sin, I have to disagree with the first. Birds, even majestic Bald Eagles, will fly into clear barriers. Because, you know, they don't smell like anything. Windows have killed millions of birds. It's sort of a thing.
If you can be nitpicky, so can I.
JazzyNym BUT… if it was electromagnetic, they would have sensed it.
Birds can't see glass. but I have no idea if this would count as glass. Honestly, we have no idea if the bird would have been able to spot this or not.
Muzic Loverr why and how?! sharks can detect EM, but not birds to my knowledge. they fly into power lines ffs.
this is actually a really good point. most birds are remarkably adept at detecting electromagnetic fields. but maybe i'm overanalyzing. i love this movie, because i can only point out small flaws in it rather than gaping plot holes.
yeah, like sharks, they sense electricity. They have to in the sky.
The “Angry Molesting Tree” is also a evil dead reference

@@Superrobotmama The one in Poltergeist wasn't quite as rapey as the one from Evil Dead.

Thank you I thought no one was going to point that out
I watched this for a film class and I feel like some of the metaphor went over your head. WE are the gods, the audience and the critics. WE need to be satisfied, and that includes tropes in each story, otherwise we pull the plug on a series.
oh damn, you're right
I guess that makes sense I was mad at the ending 😂 I guess I'm the evil pissed off at the movie because how dare this super advanced SCP style group get foiled by a f*cking stoner!!! God that's stupid!!!! 🤣
The entire movie went over their heads.
was it worth the debt?
the Japanese don't use the same archetypes as the Americans because they explain that "every culture is different", that's why a lot of Japanese horror involves schoolgirls.... probably.
Japan just has weird horror movies.
I love Japanese horror movies because there's often a "You can defeat the monster/demon/ghost/etc. some way, but you need to solve the mystery or discover its origin story to do so!" theme that makes the movies more exciting and fulfilling than simply, "Roar, monster! Kill it, don't die! Oops, you died. The end!" that many American movies tend to follow.
Yes, that was the whole point of the different countries, the different horror movie cliches they use. I can't believe that went over Jeremy's head.
I never expected to like this movie as much as I did
Right?! I thought it was some crap horror, but decided to give it a go.
Then it turned into "It's a reality game for these people" and I got excited!
I thought this movie was spooky hehehehehe I actually spilled my spaghetti watching it, knew I should have stuck to popcorn hehehe
mom's spaghetti?
Considering it's a Joss Whedon movie, I knew right away I'd like it. Sure, he didn't direct it, but Drew Goddard did, who was a staple in Joss's Buffy/Angel crew, and they both wrote it.

"Experienced CinemaSins writers miss (or deliberately ignore, to rack up sins) the clearly shown mechanism smashing a previously filled vial of red liquid that has no relation to the victims actually making the blood outline on the underground representations. Almost like it's part of some sort of ritual. What did you think, some tech is waiting at the bottom of the chasm to drain Thor's blood?"
Why does the blood outline actually fill with some kind of blood, then? Why doesn't it just... shine in acknowledgement that blood was spilled, or something? Is blood really needed at all, or did they decide to hook up some red food coloring to their blood outline thing for dramatic effect?
So a glass vile full of blood is broken above the altar after the appropriate offering had been killed. From that we can infer that this part of the ritual is necessary to indicate that their deaths were an intentional sacrifice to the gods and not an accident.
If we go one step further, maybe the blood ville were collected from their respective victims at a prior moment, presumable a medical exam. Either that or there is no need for the blood to belong to the person who just got killed.
Also, there is an earthquake when they offer blood to the stoner when he was still alive.
peter millions Thank you! Even I noticed that the first time I watched the movie. I like to think it's pig's blood a la Carrie 😈
Yeah, pretty sure they have actual blood on hand (hard to say whether from the victims or just random blood) in order to appease the Old Gods. The Old Gods want blood, that's all really. That's why they still react when Marty isn't really dead. They got their blood and they surely heard from this agency that Marty was dead, so they were pleased. I don't think they are intended to be omniscient, so they wouldn't know that he was actually still alive.
I think it was the opposite, Mystic. They rumbled when they smashed the Marty vial because Marty wasn't really dead. They completed his part of the ritual prematurely, angering the Old Gods.
Co director: how many Easter eggs do you want in this film
Director: yes
Wait, really no mention to the merman scene?
Trithis At least it's not a sin

CinemaSins: Showing us the fence now is dumb.
CinemaSins, following their own advice: There was no evidence of this fence, it's just there to kill Hemsworth.
Yep. If you imagine the movie without that earlier eagle scene, the Hemsworth scene would've risked being a jump-the-shark moment. Even in a film as balls-out crazy as this, an invisible sci-fi force-fence is a pretty big pill to swallow, maybe because it's implied to be human tech rather than supernatural like everything else. They made the right choice imo to set up the fence early and move swiftly along.
Sure, if you're paying attention, it means you totally know what's going to happen to Hemsworth, but the "Don't do it, bro!" anticipation arguably works better than going for a big WTF moment that would end up feeling like a cheap trick on the audience precisely because it hadn't been set up previously.
You sort of have to set things up in movies, show that it's a thing, establish the rules, otherwise audiences feel like the film cheated and there are no stakes because it's anything-can-happen time. If there's a problem, it's that the set-up isn't very subtle. It feels like a scene-extension added in post to paper over a problem. Maybe test audiences complained there was no set-up?
Besides, anyone who forgot the eagle scene still got their surprise :)
@@blatherskite3009 in other words, you have to make movies for people who don't watch movies. Anyone that's seen a movie before knew that force field was going to fuck with people later.
The mistake the movie made was drawing far too much attention to it. It basically went, "Hey, look at this. Remember this."
@@blatherskite3009 I absolutely agree. This is a good instance of dramatic irony. The character doesn't know he's about to die, but those who paid attention already know what will happen. It is actually quite comedic seeing all the build-up for his motorcycle jump just to have known that he will get blocked by the fence.
Totally agree. With no set up, that would be death by ex-Fence-ika.
@@mangopop6217 That's the problem, it's not for people who 'paid attention'. It was for everyone who happened to be near the screen of the movie playing with how much of an unsubtle way they drew attention to it.
Japan has different legend structure, so does not need the jock, virgin, fool, etc.
Doesn’t change the fact that they don’t tell us what that structure is to clarify.

i visited the Universal Studios park and went to the haunted house based on this movie. It was sooooo good and actually scary. they played it like it was after the movie takes place so you get to see all the characters and their deaths all around laid out like easter eggs in a videogame. Like that girls chopped off head and the dude getting eating by the merman. it was awesome!
One of the best horror comedy movies of all time. I think the mermaid scene should have warranted a sin removal

Haha do you watch these baked too
A lot of this doesn't factor in the very obvious symbolism, in that most everything is in reference to the horror genre as a whole.
Also, the blood isn't coming from the campground. It's very blatantly shown that a vial of their blood has already been secretly collected and broken over the bowl that pours it into that ancient carving.

I think the funniest part is that Marty's actor had to wear so many layers of clothing because he was jacked, more buff than Hemsworth, but he's playing the stoner so they had to cover him up
If that was the case they definitely should've had him take off his ripped shirt at some point to subvert expectations even more

2:29 I actually found the later scene to be much better already knowing the wall was there. In a space where I would normally have been rolling my eyes and asking why the guy was taking so long to jump I was in a fit of nerves about him dying as well as excitement about seeing how it would happen. The scene was far more enjoyable to me knowing the wall was there. It shouldn't be labelled a mistake, that production team knew exactly what they were doing when they added that part in.
Chexpet I completely agree. I was surprised that they labelled it a sin when it's actually an instance of great, structured writing.
If the movie didn't show that scene with bird before, people would be complaining about that diabolus-ex-machina
Well, both sides of the argument have merit, really. In my opinion, it would have been better if they only showed something that _hinted_ at the wall, something only noticeable by the very observant on first viewing, but plainly obvious to all in later viewings. For example, say on the outside of the wall, we see leaves on trees blowing in the wind, but on the inside, none of the leaves are even stirring.
EXACTLY. When I first saw that scene, I was saying in the theater (out loud), "Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Oh, shit." Other people I've talked to had forgotten about the wall, making it even more epic.
I actually didn't see the first wall scene so I got the full effect when Curt died.
“Angry molesting tree” is also an evil dead reference. Also the trap door in the cabin

The chick straight up says that she's sleeping in the camper if the cabin, that they've never been to, is too shitty and gross inside. Hence the reason they drove it, plus room for everyone and their luggage, plus his motorcycle mounted to the back.

The story about Marty wearing all the clothing layers is based on the fact that the actor was hired to play a shiftless stoner but he is actually jacked and they were forced to hide this fact in order to make him fit the character profile and keep him in the movie. Pretty cool if you ask me. Edit: Had to fix a typo.

I'm surprised Cinemasins doesn't realize that we the audience are the gods, that's why we demand nude scenes here in america and for an R rating otherwise the movie sucks. Its different for Japanese horror films because they have their own style and has different ways of doing things. So the audience are referred to as gods.

If you're gonna apply this logic you'd have to take a shitton of sin away because this movie is a parody and almost all the actual sins were intentional.
I figure the difference between “witches” and “sexy witches” would be that one is actively being seductive, like a succumbs or something.
succubus
I like succumbs lol
Then it should be "seductive witches" because "sexy" is a product of the mind of the observer, whereas "seductive" is a product of the actions of the subject.
Anyway, anyone who's ever been in a halloween shop knows "sexy witch" = witch costume that shows more skin.
@@scottmatheson3346 they're witches so maybe they can manipulate the part of the brain that deals with what you subjectively find pleasing.
@@athirkell well maybe not the people on the cabin but whoever label them as sexy witches would have to have found them sexy.
so I get what you're saying now they pick that scenario sexy which is what it came out whether the people in the cabin thought they're sexy or not. But somebody who runs the program. They were runs the program must have named that group of witches sexy which is, therefore somebody thought they were sexy.
I watched this movie at my friends house and I freaking loved it, Marty is honest to god best boy
I wanna see "Angry molesting tree" in action
TheRandyalex Then watch Evil Dead. ;)
TheRandyalex the whomping willow
I think you see it in when all the elevators open, @14:21 on the left, it looks like tree roots grabbing a soldier.
TheRandyalex 14:22 you can see the branches groping that soldiers crotch on the left
Show me whats in da beg!
I like to imagine that this movie takes place in the Buffy-verse, and the organization running all this is a branch of Woflram & Hart.
This just made it 1000% better!
Considering all Whedon's stuff (minus Marvel at this point) takes place in the same universe I'd say that's a fair assumption. I came to the same one.
Synchronizor yesss that's the vibe I got
Apparently it was originally supposed to exist in the Left 4 Dead universe, but Valve was scared of video game movies so they refused the tie-in. You can even see the Boomer and Witch in the scene with all the monster cages.
Synchronizor After Hours on Cracked said the same thing
5:07 uh no, it wasn't opening the diary that set things in motion, it was reading the Latin out loud.
I assume that most of the objects in the cellar were connected to specific monster.
There by choosing which way to die 😱
No matter what happen. This is the one of best movie that I Ever watched. The Movie where has a Random numbers of Monsters.
I love this movie. Its hilarious. My favorite character was marty.
Fun fact: when the group is at the dock swimming, Marty had to stay fully clothed because he was more muscular than Thor.
+Randy Riggs thought stoners just didn't care that fact wasn't fun at all btw
This and Tucker&Dale vs. Evil are brilliant "horror" movies.
Of course he was your favourite character, he was written to be exactly that :D Well written indeed.
wait what?! Thats awesome.
Everyone complains about the button that releases all the monsters. You know what? If MY black ops site/Ancient God Shrine was compromised somehow, and there was no way to get it back, guess what button I'd push?
Of course, because it's not like you can set up a bomb with high-powered explosives in such a way that it converts all the energy into one massive explosion to look like an accident.
Yeah, but where is the fun in that?
"Release the hounds." In Mr. Burns's voice.
PULL THE LEVER KRONK....flips monster switch*....WROOOOOONNNNNGGGGG LEVER...SPLAT*
Fuck that noise. Monsters unleashed.
That infinity stone joke 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'm dying
SomeRandomGuy lol ur right
SomeRandomGuy I just posted something like this! Well great minds think alike!
I hope that was a joke...
I agree
This video is great because it's more Cabin content, but Cabin in the Woods is absolutely phenomenal.
EXTRA SIN!
Kevin.
“How are we gonna kill the kiddos?”
Someone: Wraith!
Someone2: Aliens
Someone3: KEVIN!
Hanako Iight why did nobody bet on Kevin?! 😩😩
My money's on Kevin
Kevin McAllister. (?)
Who's or what's Kevin?
Kevin the cube
"Is the Director some badass older woman capable of taking on this rather young man?"
*I'll have you know that Sigourney Weaver was kicking Alien asses when this kid was in diapers*
I freaking love this movie lol and one of the reasons is the killer unicorn
Yukitaite ikr. It’s just so great to think of all these killers and creatures in one place together. I loved it!
When I watched this I didn’t see it from the start so I missed the whole business part who lured those teenagers to the cabin I literally just saw the teens so I was soooo confused when they began to show the people
I mean. Read the lore. Unicorns are fucking murderers if you aren't a 14 year old girl who doesn't know what a penis is.
@@Kat-xy7fm Basically you'd have to be a virgin. Which would be big trouble in this day and age if unicorns were real. SCP foundation wiki has one having to do with the goblin market where dust from a unicorn's horn reverses the effects of intercourse including making the woman's hymen grow back. The horror part of it includes killing already existing children. Like taking half their DNA away and probably leaving them in a puddle of goo.
Sorry, I got sidetracked there. Point is, you'd have to be a virgin. Like the movie legend, the couple kissed but didn't have intercourse.
@@graciegj63 Holy shit I love when people with no concept of anatomy write dumb shit about virginity. "Grow back the hymen" jfc it's a small flap meant to keep dirt out of the vag. It stretches. If it gets torn it just heals itself. It's not like the seal on a bottle of vitamins.
That said, unicorn legends are varied since they exist across such a large number of cultures, but in the virgin-based mythology, nah bro, kissing is still too much for a unicorn. Also you generally have to be pretty. Luckily, they hate lions, so a good Security Lion will have you covered.
The cabin in the woods is most certainly one of the smartest movies in existence. It's basically the scream franchise,but with a much more fresh,updated,and complex story that knows how to catchyour attention. I really love it's cast and the way it makes fun of its tropes and cliches unbeknownst that the whole film means so much more than it actually is. It is most certainly one of the biggest representations of all horror films.
Lmao
6:30 They only needed those things in the US because it is an American horror trope not a Japanese one.
Eli Persky I was looking for this comment! The Japanese trope oftentimes has schoolchildren involved. I'm sure if we got more than just snips of failures from other places, this would be more clear to viewers
Honestly it seemed more like a comedy to me
DEATH it's a parody
It's literally satire.
That's because it was.
It's a dark comedy like Sweeney Todd or possibly even Get Out.
It is. It's not intended to be a actual horror movie otherwise if it was Joss Whedon would have wrote a better script.
So that's it huh, so are we some kind of cabin in the woods?
Aydin Fjeldsted *ding*
"nahh nahhh nahhh.... welcome to the cabin. boo yeah! I've got to get me one of these"
マクドナルドカイル
Your name is McDonald's Kyle.
Cabin in the woods is the scp movie we needed
YAS!
Fun fact: SCP-173 is in the background during a scene
@@ValliantPoppys which one?
@@nnzzj during that scene in the boxes you can see the facial pattern of scp 173 however searching it online is easier
The Japanese setting doesn't need things the American setting needs, it's about the regional horror tropes being what's needed in said regions. American tropes aren't remotely the same as Japanese horror tropes, so the school setting is perfectly fine for the Japanese team.
It's also why I end up liking most Japanese horror over most American horror movies these days, but of course there are exceptions.
2:40 Bullshit, birds smash their heads against my windows and kill themselves all the time.
Negative Zero XD
no not everyone has a cousin, the children of two only children have no cousins since neither of their parents have siblings
This is what I journeyed into the comments for
Maybe not first cousins, but I'm sure they have second, third or twenty-seventh cousins.
He said a cousin of some capacity. It's possible for someone to have no first cousins, but impossible for someone to have absolutely none, be it through marriage or just distant relatives.
The505Guys I know my cousins up to my 5th cousins beyond that I am not familiar with them. I do know on my father's side some of them are in Sweden and some are in Germany everything past that is beyond me.
where are you from?? dont you visit relatives and stuff?
At 5 : 55 written on the board : Angry Molesting Tree . Love the Evil Dead references
Everything Wrong with The Bee Movie.
I see your Bee Movie and raise you a Doctor Strange.
Haplo2020 I see your Doctor Strange and raise you one Rogue One and one Split
Well shit. The only things I can think of to call are Logan and Da best of da best Movies "Who Killed Captain Alex"
_AK_ bee movie is perfect
_AK_ Everything wrong with the bee movie, but every time it's sinned, it gets faster.
This is the S.C.P foundation
13:30 look behind where the witch is on the right. SCP 173 is there in the corner.
Or 13:25
@Grace J I can't see it,mind taking a screenshot and highlighting it?
shhhhh..
@lee yi xian oh dear god
No mention of the Merman scene? Tsk.
"Oh come on!" xD
Go to 6.23 it’s mentioned
If anything, that one should have gotten a couple of sins taken off.
If you watch this movie in the position that we, the Audience are the ancient ones... this movie is brilliant!
That's because that's the point the movie is trying to make. The ancient ones indeed is the audience, the cabin is the horror movie, the facility is Hollywood. the reason why Sigourney Weaver said that it doesn't matter for the Ancient Ones if Dana is a virgin, as long as acts like The Virgin, is because it's like that in real life! You don't care about the actor's life, you care about the character they play!
Cinemasins gets a win for using a Muppets song, especially since it's impossible to sin a Muppets movie.
6:30 if you were paying attention near the end of the movie, youd know that the requirements differ for each culture's idea of "horror".
There's a flaw in that argument though. If the requirements differ based on culture, then why are the gods of other cultures satisfied if the gods of only one country receive their sacrifice. If they're the same gods no matter which country, then why are different rituals useful? There are logical explanations, but they weren't provided in the movie.
Man, the Gods are gambling addicts, they keep saying, "Yeah, my team is gonna score great this year, and you'll be humiliated hahahaha". So as long as one of then score, they can brag about the other and everyone keeps entertained, but if no one scores, well, then hell break loose, actualy like in the movie.
Because the gods are the audience. The actual audience. You, the viewers. This movie relies on horror movie tropes and the gods are the audience, who based on geography, prefer different tropes in their horror movie films.
Each country has a different set of tropes tied to it that is compelling to movie goers in that region. In America when you go to a horror flick, especially in the 70-90's you expected certain things to happen, those expectations are shown throughout the film. Whenever they reference the audience, they're referencing you, the demographic that goes to these films and what you want.
Jakk Frost That’s not a flaw in the argument. The gods need to be satisfied, that’s all. Each of these rituals are ways to satisfy them. Like how if I were hungry I’d just need a meal, but I wouldn’t expect the same ingredients in a hamburger that I would in a bowl of General tso’s or a salad. Either one would work, but they all have to be prepared different ways
can you atleast TRY to type english correctly...?
Are you afraid of Unicorns? YOU WILL BE!
"I don't think Curt even has a cousin" 5 sins off
