Official Plot Synopsis

A twisted and unusual take on the familiar "cabin in the woods" formula. Five friends go to a remote cabin in the woods. Bad things happen. If you think you know this story, think again. From fan favorites Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard comes The Cabin in the Woods, a mind blowing horror film that turns the genre inside out.
Five college kids are head out of town on vacation and in the process drive towards the plot of every lame slasher flick you’ve ever seen. Their relaxation spot is a remote cabin in the woods, lent to them by some vaguely explained relative and with all the strange, creepy asides you’d expect in a horror movie. Except we, the audience, know it’s all a fraud.
