Five good-looking, fun-loving 20-somethings pile into a camper and head out to - you guessed it - a cabin in the woods. Bad things happen to them there. You know the types. The blonde bimbo (she just dyed her hair). The jock (he wears a letter jacket). The egghead (he's built like a jock, too, but he's the sensitive type). The stoner (guess what he does all day). And the virgin (she's not, really, but as somebody explains late in the picture, you work with what you have). They're formula characters all the way, in a formula movie, up to a point. Beyond that point, the film's off the grid, going where no other slasher movie has quite so explicitly gone before. To say much more would reveal too much, and I won't tell you who turns up in a surprise cameo toward the end. See it before you find out.
