Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

This is the a better funded version of Triangle, which is the only reason it got 6 stars. If one could look pass the horrid clichés, basic acting, and boobs, this movie would be quite enjoyable. Micheal is the saving grace of this film, though the stupidity of the other characters is sure to annoy throughout. Seriously who the hell goes into an abandoned mine at night? More importantly, who the hell, after seeing what the charters saw, goes back into said mine repeatedly.....still at night?!

Future filmmakers please pay attention to this movie and take heed. There is truly no end to the creative possibilities when you have a blank canvas and some imagination. Cabin in the Woods and Mine Games both prove this by leading you on a merry journey expecting one type of film when in fact you're watching something completely different. Cabin isn't a horror film… it's a sci-fi fantasy. Mine Games isn't a horror film… it is a survival adventure. And with a clever premise, immersive sets, and a soundtrack and sound effects that seem to take the movie seriously, I unfortunately must join every other reviewer and ask the question: Who above a 3rd grade education spends an entire mountain vacation exploring spooky abandoned mines? Yoda didn't tell them "In you must go," so wave goodbye to logic. Further question… why a mine? We could have built the same plot turns in the setting of the beautiful cabin and surrounding woods. Like Time Lapse and Parallels, I walked away from the movie with the simultaneous need to watch it again and the wish that the movie could have been more. I hope future filmmakers feel the same way and continue to think outside the box like Mine Games but with better results.

Richard Gray is director, co-writer and co-producer of this cabin in the woods film. A group of friends set out on a little trip to a mutual friend's cabin in the woods. While stopping to gas up the van, they see a newspaper announcing "a missing unidentified girl is found dead in the woods". Oops, great way to get people thinking. A little later, Michael(Joseph Cross)has to swerve off the road to avoid hitting a waving figure(that can't be found). Now lost in the dark, Lyla, Claire, Lex, Rose, TJ and Guy on foot reaches their destination...a nicely furnished cabin deep in the woods. Morning comes and exploring the grounds an old abandon mine is found. And what is found turns this movie a little creepy, well...a lot creepy. Now comes paranoia and psychotic reactions to some time travel.What started out as ho-hum turns into entertaining. Filmed in Seattle, Washington with minor special effects and acting. Also in the cast: Briana Evigan, Julianna Guill, Rafi Garvon, Lindsay Lamb, Alex Meraz, Ethan Peck and Rebecca Da Costa.

Seven friends on vacation stumble upon an abandoned mine shaft in the middle of a remote forest and live to regret going in. The film takes a while to get to the action which is a positive as you get to know the characters. To the films benefit most of them aren't so obnoxious you want to see them die, which always adds to any tension a film may build up. Although there aren't any real stand out performers the acting is decent throughout. The production values for a relatively small film are of an impressive standard.There is a nice air of panic and mystery built up as some of the group slowly to begin see things that they wish they hadn't. This is an unusual story line and is to be applauded for being a bit different. There are a number of unsettling scenes and you never quite know where the film is going to go. This is a small film that punches above it's weight and is well worth watching.
