Shownotes

The Mikes are waking up the Ancient Ones with Chris Hemsworth on this week's episode of Forgotten Horror VI as they discuss the 2012 (but really 2009) Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard film, The Cabin in the Woods.

Listen in as Mike Butler and Mike Field discuss how this film dissects and uses classic horror movie tropes against itself in this film as well as how some of the movie's self reference and self-indulgence might have been the very thing that led to it's being forgotten.

So, grab your flashlights, please notice the cryptids to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Horror.
