Playing by the Rules

Three posters for The Cabin in the Woods, a comedy-horror movie written by Joss Whedon opening next winter, were presented at the 2009 Comic-Con, offering terrible advice for anybody who finds themselves in a situ straight out of a slasher flick.

Like, “If an old man warns you not to go there…. Make fun of him,” or “If something is chasing you…. Split up.”

In other words, common-sense stuff. Ha!

Whedon worked the funny quite well on TV’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer, so it isn’t a big surprise he should bring it to his next cinematic project.

The Cabin in the Woods, starring Chris Hemsworth, opens on Feb. 5.

I already likey.
