Published: Oct. 10, 2022, 10 a.m.

b'Our second film of October, and our second in our Horror-Comedy pairing, comes to us from the team of Director Drew Goddard and Producer Joss Whedon, both of whom penned this tribute to the entire horror genre! A group of friends head out to a remote cabin recently purchased by a family member for a weekend of sex, drinking, and general partying good times! Sounds familiar, right? This time, however, there\'s an even more sinister event taking place. The friends must contend with a returned redneck zombie family intent on killing them all, but two survivors find out that there\'s actually a company behind the evening\'s horrific events, and the reason they\'re killing the members of the group is to stop an even greater horror from happening. Unfortunately, the two survivors don\'t find out about it until it\'s too late, and things take a turn for an even worse! Starring Kristen Connolly, Christ Hemsworth, Anna Hutchison, Fran Kranz, Jesse Williams, Richard Jenkins, Bradley Whitford, and Amy Acker, this film answers the question, "What if every horror-based urban legend you\'ve ever heard of was run by a corporation?" Plus, find out what two new entries in the zombie genre conclude our "Month of Halloween" pairings!'
