8. The Cabin in the Woods
It’s not a horror movie compendium without showcasing at least one movie where a bunch of dim teens get hacked to pieces during a weekend retreat. You can go back to Friday the 13th or A Nightmare on Elm Street for inspiration, or you can just watch 2012’s Cabin in the Woods, a whip smart movie that has tons of fun with slasher movie tropes before sending the whole thing off the edge into crazy town in the third act. It’s funny, it’s terrifying, and it’s a thorough joy to watch until the credits roll.
