A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

The presence of Richard Jenkins in the opening sequence suggested that we were going to get something classier than the usual teenage slasher nonsense; but for quite a while the ghoulish build up seemed conventional enough.The cheerful amorality of the bad guys' manipulation of the likeable youngers chosen to be their victims at first roused my indignation; but as all is eventually revealed I became increasingly relieved that that the emphasis was going to be on providing an ingenious and well thought-out resolution rather than just the usual welter of blood. For which I am very grateful.

I loved this movie so much that I watched it about 15 times. Super original. The very first time they show the young adults who are going to have an adventure in the woods I was like: Come on, look at this! So freakken cheesy!! The cute blond girl, the sport guy, a pothead... DÉJA VU THOUSANDS OF TIMES!!! THIS MOVIE SUCKS!!! But I kept watch it and loved it. The story is excellent.

I'm a major fan of horror movies but this one didn't do it for me. It's predictable, the plot is quite cliche and the acting seems off. The only thing that makes it a horror movie is that it has a few jumpscares and even those aren't very good.

It is supposed to be a horror-comedy but there is no comedy in it whatsoever! What there is in it is one very long list of unanswered questions and here are just a few of them: If the jock's (Curt's) Uncle owns the cabin then how did the scientists and the organisation they work for get in there to put cameras everywhere inside and out around the cabin? If the Uncle works for the organisation then why would he have allowed them to stay How would he have not known about what was going to happen when they go there? What is the organisation? How did the organisation know that the ones going were just what they needed? How did they get the undead family to kill them in the correct order? If it weren't down to them then how did the undead know the correct order to kill them in? How is it that the students don't bleed like a person would? How is it that the students appear to be immune to serious injury? Why does the film not make it obvious who is which character? the only one that was was the stoner. Why later in the film are the characters of the jock and the nerd swap with each other? How could the virgin possibly be a virgin when she was seeing a collage professor for some extra curricular activities? Seeing as how she's not actually a virgin, how would sacrificing her last to save the world make any difference? I could keep going with even more questions that this stupid film leaves unanswered but I think that's enough for now!Honestly, if you want proper, brilliant horror-comedy, watch the three Scream film or for decent horror-comedy the three I Know What You Did Last Summer films. Ok so the three I Know What You Did Last Summer films aren't quite as good as Scream, the second and third films inexplicably got very poor ratings on here and on Rotten Tomatoes. The poor ratings are ludicrous as they are actually rather good meaning/making all six film so massively better than this rubbish!
