I'm I'm Renee Hunter Vasquez, joined as always by my co-host, my husband, and my brother.

Hi, I'm John Paul Vasquez. Hi, I'm Travis Hunter. This week, we're recording live

0:38.9

from the Black Room discussing the 2011 horror comedy, The Cabin in the Woods. This film was directed

0:45.1

by Drew Goddard and written by Goddard and Joss Whedon. With the script that Goddard and

0:50.0

Weedon were able to write in just three days. This film takes a very unique look at the traditional

0:54.9

Cabin in the Woods story. The Cabin in the Woods plays with horror film tropes while introducing a

0:59.8

cheeky spin to the genre. This film was recommended to us by friends of the show Nisa Hunter,

1:05.1

Megan McCollum, and Andrew Gelsamino. We so appreciate their support and their suggestions.

1:10.7

Thank you, Mom, thank you

1:11.9

Megan, and thank you, Andrew. So what did you guys think about the cabin in the woods the first

1:16.7

time you saw it? I remember your sister showing me this movie and I didn't like it.

1:23.5

And it is. So it's like, I'm like, do I, am I serious now, or I playing or, you know what I mean? Like, am I allowed to laugh or do I not laugh? But this movie, there's a lot of shit. So it's like, all right. I see, I see what's happening. I think when it comes to horror comedy, I think they tend to lean on one side more than the other right more often

2:20.1

than not yeah even behind the mask which we loved and talked about uh definitely lean more on the comedy side

2:28.1

yeah Tucker and dale more on the comedy side yeah i feel like, the horror in this film is shot like horror.

2:36.2

Oh, yeah. And so it's an interesting take. I do want to point out that to me, I probably should

2:42.2

answer your question first, the first time. I loved it the first time I saw it. I am very interested

2:48.3

to hear what you didn't like the first time that you

2:51.2

liked the second time. All right. But I actually saw this in the movie theater with an old friend of
