So what did he think of Dead Silence and Cabin in the Woods (if you've seen them yet)?
Dead Silence is nothing new, but it was a scary well-made ride for me. Cabin is written/directed by Josh Whedon (Avengers, Serenity/Firefly). It has some semi-original elements. It's not scary, but it's well-made with smart dialogue, & it's entertaining.
Also, from his tastes, I think he'd like John Dies at the End. It's intelligent & crafty. It has horror & comedy elements & a creative mesh of concepts. It's not meant to be entirely original, though I had no idea where it was going, & that's plenty entertaining to me. I didn't like the ending, but thought it was forgivable because the rest was so good. It's kind of a 'Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey' meets 'Evil Dead 2'. If your husband liked those, he'd like this.
Let us know what you all think of them. I'll be very curious.
What did you guys think of The Cell 2002? The one with Jennifer Lopez, psychologist using machine to go into the mind of a serial killer to save a girl.

I hate to say but school has consumed me so we haven't been able to watch any others lately, but hopefully we'll catch one this weekend. Also, I haven't heard of John Dies at the End, so I'll throw that on the list! He loves Evil Dead 2 but he's so-so on Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey...so I'd be curious to see what he thinks. Also, we never saw The Cell. Recommend it?
