The Cabin in the Woods Page #2

Synopsis: Five teenagers head off for a weekend at a secluded cabin in the woods. They arrive to find they are quite isolated with no means of communicating with the outside world. When the cellar door flings itself open, they of course go down to investigate. They find an odd assortment of relics and curios, but when one of the women, Dana, reads from a book, she awakens a family of deadly zombie killers. However, there's far more going on than meets the eye.

This isn't the military.

You can drop the "sir".

But Sitterson does

like to be called "ma'am."

Or "honey toes."

- He'll also answer to "honey toes."

You clear on what's

gonna be happening here?

I've been prepped. Extensively.

Did they tell you that being prepped

is not the same as being prepared?

They told me.

I'll hold my post, Mr. Hadley.

Good man.

Okay. System's online.

Acquiring target.

Let's see what we got.

I'm thinking this thing

doesn't take credit cards.

I don't think it knows about money.

I think it's barter gas.

Hello?

Hey, Holden.

Holden!

- I don't think there's gonna be..

You come here uninvited?

- F***!

Sign says "closed."

Yeah, we were looking to buy some gas.

Does this pump work?

If you know how to work it.

We also wanted to get directions.

We're looking for.. What's it called?

Tillerman Road.

Do you know if it's this way?

Tillerman Road takes

you up the hill, there.

Dead-ends at the old Buckner place.

My cousin bought a house up there.

You go through a mountain tunnel,

there's a lake.

Would that be the..

- Buckner place.

Always someone looking

to sell that plot.

You knew the original owners.

Yeah, not the first.

I seen plenty come and go.

Hell, I been here since the war.

- Which war?

- You know damn well which war!

Would that have been with

the blue and some in gray?

Brother, perhaps,

fighting against brother in that war?

You sassing me, boy?

You were rude to my friend.

That whore?

What'd you say?

-I think we got enough gas.

You got enough to get you there.

Getting back..

that's your concern.

Well, good luck with

your business, sir.

I know the railroad's coming

through here any day, now.

That's gonna be big.

Streets paved with actual street.

F***er.

This must be it.

Oh, my God. It's.. beautiful.

One spider and I'm

sleeping in the Rambler.

I mean it.

Come on. Give me a hand.

This is awesome.

It is kind of cool.

You gonna kill us a raccoon to eat?

I will use its skin to make a cap.

Everybody get your suits on. In

Yeah.

I was not informed there

would be calisthenics.

Yeah, I don't think so.

Whoa.

No way.

Ah, sh*t.

This is happening.

Hold up!

You've gotta be f***ing kidding me.

That's just creepy.

It was pioneer days.

People had to make their

own interrogation rooms.

Who did your cousin

buy this place from?

We should check the rest of the rooms,

make sure this is the only one.

'Cause you know Marty wants

to watch us pounding away.

I didn't even like hearing that.

How about we switch?

Not that I'd..

I mean, I'd put the picture back but you

might feel better if we switched rooms?

I really would.

Thanks. For being decent.
