“The Cabin in the Woods” is less a horror film and more of a puzzle box that exhumes and examines the gratification we derive from gruesome entertainment. In other words: If you thought “Cabin’s” sole goal was gutting college kids in the sticks, stop reading and come back later. Even saying the movie is not as it seems constitutes a spoiler (albeit one far less specific than those in omnipresent trailers and TV spots). But that’s part of what the movie chews over.
