Omg this looks good.

Anyone else excited to watch this?

Nope

Yes!

What the "twist", since MNS doesn't do movies without a gimmick.

They get AIDS and use it as a teaching tool to stop its spread and kill everyone off.

My guess is that the twist is that Groff is a top. But it's less believable than a kid being able to see dead people.

by Anonymousreply 6January 31, 2023 9:23 PM

It's nice they are featuring a gay couple, but it doesn't augment the premise enough to make me want to watch it. Not a huge MNS fan, or a huge horror fan, though I certainly do watch some stuff.

Why don't they just choose Dave Bautista?

Is Jonathan Groff the one who spits all the time?

by Anonymousreply 9January 31, 2023 9:35 PM

M. Night Shyamalan is always incredible or spectacularly bad, either of which I find entertaining. I appreciate that he tries stuff.

The twist is that the knock at the cabin is: LEA MICHELLE!

Ben! Worth the price of the ticket!

Lea Michelle reprises "The Morning After (Love Theme from 'The Poseidon Adventure')" over the end credits.

Twist: the intruders demanding that they pick someone to die were hired by the little Asian girl as revenge for her mommy whom one of the fathers got pregnant while vacationing in China and cheating on the other partner.

The source of the knock is a surprise. Surprise anal.

Groff is one of the few gays DL likes

Additional twist revealed after the end credits: she brought her desk lamp along too!

Ron Weasley is in this.

Even he is doing more than Emma Watson these days. She shouldn't have started believing her own PR.

by Anonymousreply 19January 31, 2023 10:07 PM

The novel was a good, scary thriller

by Anonymousreply 20January 31, 2023 10:10 PM

Does Emma Watson really have to do anything ever again in her life?

She may want to, but does he have to?

by Anonymousreply 21January 31, 2023 10:10 PM

Yes I'll be watching this!

I know Night Shyamalan has a reputation for being a bit hit and miss but I really enjoy most of his stuff. I really liked Old and would have liked to have seen a sequel with the story continuing as well.

Forgot to say thanks OP for the alert about this.

Stupid premise. Obviously kill the adopted kid. She'll never be as fabulous as her two dads!

Well, as they say in Gypsy, "You gotta have a gimmick."

This looks distressing.

Dave Bautista is a prime example of 'ugly hot.'

by Anonymousreply 26January 31, 2023 10:51 PM

I don't really think he's ugly or hot.

I don't find his face handsome at all, but that body - I love huge, muscular bodies like his.

THR gave it a terrible review. Sounds stupid.

by Anonymousreply 31February 2, 2023 1:23 PM

R20 is right -- this was a good book. Really well done.

by Anonymousreply 32February 2, 2023 1:28 PM

R31 others have given it a good review. Is THR the only review that matters?

by Anonymousreply 33February 2, 2023 1:31 PM

Washington Post said it is “Satisfyingly atmospheric and tense.”

by Anonymousreply 34February 2, 2023 1:33 PM

Rolling Stone gave it a mostly glowing review.

“ The fact that Shyamalan seems to be working out some issues onscreen doesn’t stop him from crafting a thriller, and one which goes about its job with steady determination in Cabin’s cryptic, superior first half.”

by Anonymousreply 35February 2, 2023 1:35 PM

Saw it tonight and loved it. Loved the acting from everyone. Thought Groff and Ben had great chemistry and were a cute couple. The movie was not what I expected at all and really made me think. Highly recommended!

Looking forward to seeing this!
