    Fun fact: they couldn’t let Marty be shirtless during the scene of everyone swimming at the lake because the actor that plays him is super ripped almost more so than god of thundah and were worried it wouldn’t pan with the stoner vibe he was supposed to have.

    This is the most meta horror film I've ever seen! The movie was going to be released in 2009, but due to MGM facing bankruptcy, they delayed the release of the movie for 2 years till it was released in 2011.

      @@_the_rizzler Hahahaha XD right. Sure. Not like they literally reference literal movies such as Halloween a lot. They surely didn't purposely make Nancy Loomis look like Mrs. Vorheez in the 1st Friday the 13th. Not like they have Randy (JAMIE Kennedy) telling JAMIE Lee Curtis to look behind her when the killer is behind Randy. Yeah, definitely NOT more meta than Cabin in The Woods 🙄 not like Scream has 6 movies (soon 7) to be less meta than Cabin in The Woods that only has 1 movie.

    I absolutely love the piece of trivia where Marty's actor was ripped as fuck during the filming of the movie, so they kept him on the docks instead of in the water so Chris would be the muscular jock character. He's also wearing all these baggy clothing to conceal the fact how well trained his body was at the time.

    The gods are us, we are the ones upset when a horror movie doesn't go by the normal rules. The virgin (even though she isn't a virgin cause she slept with her teacher) didn't live, so we are upset. And the workers are the directors of this "movie"

  • @BlackParadeMarcher1
    @BlackParadeMarcher1 Před 2 lety +6

    this movie was SO GOOD. Using Evil Dead as a base was genius and playing with various 80s film tropes was perfect. Especially with the idea of 'the final girl' that became a perpetuated thing

  • @skyeperez8305
    @skyeperez8305 Před 2 lety +8

    Take everyone’s personality in the opening scene vs how they act in the cabin and it’s LEAPS AND BOUNDS different. Thor (let’s be real he’s Thor now) is outright recommending which textbooks to use and warns final girl that she’s in front of a window with no pants (respecting women!), Jules is kind of shy with showing affection and is in a happily committed relationship, Book Bro doesn’t really speak but he’s shown to be athletic by catching the football thrown out the window, Final girl outright says “why did I say that it’s not true” when acting ‘virginal’ despite having been sleeping with her professor, and Marty is the same because of the weed!

    Love this movie, the best analysis I've ever heard was the old gods are old school horror fans, they demand the blood and death and the stereotypes. The "government" is the movie studios trying to placate the fans by bending and manipulating the movie to fit. We as the audience simply are along for the ride.
