The Cabin in the Woods

The one that got away...

The Cabin in the Woods would have topped this list. MGM, however, opted to push the film from a January 2010 release to January 2011 (?!). Before anxious fans of contributing writer Joss Whedon dropped on bended knee to start praying at their Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly shrines in worry that the year-long delay was due to story problems, the studio issued a statement announcing the move was for the better: Drew (Cloverfield) Goddard’s creature feature was going to embark on the ambitious endeavor of processing it in 3-D. Minus the in-your-face technology, my understanding from those I’ve talked to on the inside about Cabin is that it’s already an impressive picture. My concern is that it wasn’t shot intended for 3-D so will the process really heighten the film’s experience? I’m sure Goddard and Whedon have it worked out.
