Cabin in the woods

I really liked this movie yesterday. It was incredibly cheesy, but that was exactly what it was aiming for. It is a satire, and is making fun of all the horror movies before it. The 'government agency' aspect is interesting, and is just another way to make fun of the horror genre by making fun of the audience. The sacrifice a few to save many is also an interesting concept. It weird how they feel they need to have to elaborately trick people, you think of the whole human population they could find some cultists people who willing sacrifice themselves, but maybe it has to be against their will, who knows? I think this also plays on the concept of free will, which has applied to a lot of our reading lately. In this movie it seems that all the characters actions can be predicted and influenced by simple stereotypes or chemical reactions. It seems to suggest that there really isn't that much free will if it can actions can be shaped that easily.
