Product Description
THE CABIN MOVIE is a darkly comic look at the nature of desire, the challenge of monogamy and the definition of sexuality. Three very different couples travel to a secluded cabin in an attempt to revitalize their lives through a series of bizarre sex games. Katherine, an unemployed housewife who has not had sex in a year is intent on getting some with or without her repressed husband Marks involvement. Jason, a happy go lucky cool guy, has shown up without his long term girlfriend, but with Ginny, a party girl he met the previous weekend. Ken and Maria, a stable common law couple, are caught in the middle somewhere between discovery and sexual panic as they try to keep things on track while wrestling with issues of their own. With the sexual tension hitting boiling point by the end of the night, all their relationships will be called into question and pushed to the very limit.

The cover has zilch to do with the film. Producers who use sexy covers as a sales trick are damnable
12 Jun 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The cover has zilch to do with the film. Producers who use sexy front covers, like this, that show photos that have nothing at all to do with the movie inside the box; film-makers who use covers like this, as cheap sales tricks, are damnable liars and should not be allowed to get away with it. If you buy a tinned or boxed food product in a supermarket and you get something completely different inside, from what's advertised outside, citizen's rights protection agencies would be all over the shop and the food producer who sold and made the item. Yet, with film,it is still allowed to happen. Film producers who let this happen to their product should be investigated under the various misrepresentation laws of every country wherein they have peddled these lies.
That aside, the film deals, rather conservatively, with a group of friends, three men and three woman, who, out of boredom within their respective relationships, arrange a sex-weekend in a forest cabin, where they plan to swing with each other, and to film their amateur sexcapade too! The judgement this film delivers is that adults, especially men, are just not grown-up enough to consent to and then act upon carnal desires, to see their 'loved' ones being 'taken' by another, without destroying themselves and their relationships in an instant. I find the message of this film highly dubious, that, based upon what happens to all of the characters here, we should be warned against such activity and get married and stay true to one another - the only look of joy, in the eyes of any of the protagonists, is seen in the eyes of one who receives a proposal of marriage to overcome the disastrous sex-weekend in the woods. I found it hard to believe in, or be at all interested in any of the three men (boys) as their characters are so flawed; they are overly-dysfunctional. I was appalled, though not surprised, at the chaps' crib-like behaviour, throwing their toys around in fits of jealousy and pique; indulging in wrestling bouts between themselves as poor distraction from their jealousy or their impotence - in the face of women came for it, who want it, and who don't get it (bar one lightning fast fling, during which there is no time to take her socks off afore it's over). I enjoyed the women characters' development, as there was at least some; and they enjoyed a good line or two, and were able to shine in the dim-shadow cast by their menfolk. This male reviewer votes: women 8/10; men 3/10. Film 6/10. Cover 0/10.

What a load of cobblers!a film about a group of people who are trying to explore their sexuality over a weekend in a cabin in the woods!the only thing missing from this film is a psychotic serial killer who could spare us all the agony of having to watch these people by gettin rid of them.would be alot more interesting and funnier!if you read the title and look at the cover you would be led to believe that you were buying a sexy film,but whoever the arse belongs too on the pic,its defo not belonging to any arse on the film so you have been warned! so cabin movie,more like crap movie!! its as bout erotic as me jumping into a bath of cold baked beans while singing the welsh national anthem!!

Format:DVD
I bought this as it sounded like a nice sexy fantasy and I thought the indie credentials would make it a bit like Shortbus. But I was really disappointed; its not in the least bit sexy. Why does the idea of couples wanting to explore their sexuality have to degenerate into conflict and jealousy. If you want to see an indie movie with fair acting its fine, but the take on sex is negative and cliche. You know it doesn't have to be only porn where people have sex. This was an opportunity missed by the film makers.
