Cabin in the woods slasher film. Richard Grieco plays a creepy sheriff and we know he is not the killer because we see the killer's face early. People party in a remote lodge on New Year's. Sara Fletcher is set up as the final girl, John Hennigan as the hero. Jena Sims plays our token slut, who looks like Stormy Daniels with the much needed nose job. African-American couple so it doesn't look overly white, like "Friends," Nothing spectacular in the dialogue or writing. Needed to make killers more like Rob Zombie creations.

Johnny Impact vs. Texas Chainsaw: Cabin-in-the-Woods Match 1
Despite some top names it's a waste
A group of friends gather for a new years eve celebration and are attacked by a mask clad psycho with insidious intentions. This surprisingly polished production, I'm sure was taken quite seriously when it was made. Especially by a plastered out Richard Grieco who plays the town sheriff. There's no real original thought here it's pretty basic and by the numbers. But the addition of unnecessary subplots and a lack of suspense or effective kills make things even worse. Despite some cool cover art and a screenplay that would have been better off it had stuck to the basics this film is a complete waste of energy.
*.5/5
Nonsensical killing spree...Spoiler Alerts!
If you considered watching this because you're a fan of Dominique Swain...forget it! She is in the movie from @12:20-13:20...exactly One Minute! The plot is a bunch of "college kids" who go to a closed resort in the woods for New Years and get murdered by three TX Chainsaw types, though mostly just the one big, Jason-like dude.Eighties teen heartthrob Richard Grieco plays the sheriff of the "town," even though he makes no effort not to look like a disheveled, long haired drunkard. It's ok, though, as the town appears to have no people in it, other than the characters in the movie. The murders are of the usual "Friday the 13th" variety, with stock character types. Jena Sims (nice) & Heather Paige Cohen (WOW) provide the nudity, but not enough to save this mess. There is a twist at the end that makes no sense whatsoever, as there's neither a flashback nor early dialogue to foreshadow it. The reason all this was done, "to clear the (already empty) town of rotten kids" is especially silly, given that the first 4 victim were adults. Perhaps a different ending was planned and time and money constraints forced them to slap together this awful denouement. It's not nearly bad enough to be ironically entertaining (like "The Room" or "Samurai Cop"). Just a waste of time. Thank you, anyway, Ms Cohen.
