    Looks interesting. Like a weird combination of "Wrong Turn" and "Truman Show".

    It'll also be the first 2012 movie of the Whedon-Hemsworth combination, second being "Avengers".

    Thoughts?

    Heard Miramax owned it but they went bankrupt. It was shot a few years back right?

    Reminds me of Drag me to Hell. Looked stupid, sounded stupid, was surely going to be stupid, but managed to win critics over.

    In a way, yes. Although this is supposedly a good mindf*uck movie. The kind you have as much fun discussing afterward as you do watching it.

    I want to see it, but I have a hard time suspending disbelief with certain things, like the invisible force field from the previews that kills things. I know this is dumb because I can enjoy other sci-fi silliness, but for some reason, I think this part is going to bother me greatly.

    Joss Whedon does not make bad things. This will be great

    Went to the premiere March 9th for SXSW. Great Q&A w/ Joss and Goddard afterward. Loved it enough to see it again with other friends later this weekend. You guys will really enjoy it. It's not parodic really, but manages to walk the line between funny and scary in that the funny doesn't cheapen the scary.

    This is probably the most clever horror film of the last 10+ years. I was very surprised.
