It’s fun to see Cabin in the Woods done earlier by people with actual affection for the genre. It’s nice that this came out in 2006 and was able to hit before the Obama era with its “that just happened”s and its epic bacons. It’s easy to imagine a version of this movie released 3-4 years later that’s just completely unwatchable. But they got it in before the buzzer. Good on them. Unfortunately 2006 is a double edged sword and there’s a shot of a murder victim where it’s basically impossible not to notice that he’s wearing bootcut jeans.
