Ok so last night, my terrible horrible no good brain thought "I wonder what would happen if you turned the Scooby Gang loose on Cabin in the Woods"
That immediately caused me to try and match the gang up to the Archetypes introduced in CitW, but I was high and sort of asleep so I could not remember them all. I remembered:
The Athlete: Fred
The Scholar: Velma
The Fool: Shaggy
The Virgin: Daphne
but I could not remember the last one for the life of me, and I eventually fell asleep.
Woke up this morning, still with this burden in my brain, and was like "ok, what was number 5... The Whore. Ok. Hrrm. Wait."
So now I'm sort of reconsidering everything, because there are now... implications to the things I am thinking about.
I COULD make Scooby Doo "The Whore" - he's the one that has the mass market appeal, he's the one that's in all the cameos and on all the merch, he was basically Hanna Barabara's Mickey Mouse for a while... right? Does that work or count?

#TheCabinInTheWoods (2011)
A group of kids go to a remote cabin in the woods where their fate is unknowingly controlled by technicians as part of a world-wide conspiracy where all horror movie clichés are revealed to be part of an elaborate sacrifice ritual.
3.5/5 ⭐️ Not what I was expecting, but kept me interested. Fab guest star near the end ❤️. Justifies me watching the next one.
