Now, I was lured into watching the 2022 horror movie "Cannibal Cabin" because of the cover. I found the movie's cover to be rather interesting, though it was very much reminiscent of the "Cabin in the Woods" cover I suppose. Plus, the fact that it was a horror movie I had never seen, nor actually heard about, made me sit down and watch the movie.
I made it just a little more than halfway through the ordeal, then I had to give up on the movie and toss the towel in the ring out of sheer and utter boredom. Writer Charley McDougall put together an insanely slow paced and uneventful script and storyline, which made it very, very difficult to sit through, much less find anything enjoyable in the narrative.
Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list. Not that I can say that I was particularly impressed with what I saw on the screen, as the performances were mediocre. I blame it on the lack of proper writing for the script, character gallery and dialogue.
"Cannibal Cabin" was a swing and a a miss of a movie, and this is definitely not a movie that I will be returning to and attempt to finish watching. I just simply found no entertainment in director Louisa Warren's 2022 horror movie.
Well, as for "Cannibal Cabin" being a horror movie, don't count on it. The only thing scary here, was how slow paced and uneventful the movie was. But I suppose boredom can be a killer, so maybe that counts?
If you enjoy horror movies, do yourself a favor and don't waste your time, money or effort on "Cannibal Cabin". The best thing about the entire ordeal was actually the movie's cover. I kid you not.
My rating of "Cannibal Cabin" lands on a one out of ten stars.
