If you had to choose one monster from Cabin to maim/torture and kill you, which would it be and why?

Must take y'all awhile to get some work done, but at least it sounds like fun.

Thanks for the reply!

Quick follow-up question: Which monster would you be most terrified of if someone were to threaten you with death by a CitW monster?

I read on IMDb that your nickname is Ultimate Drew. Does anybody actually call you that? (Not knocking it; it just seems like a mouthful.) If so, how did it come about?

And now for a little fangirling (just a little—I know you’re a busy person): I loved “Cabin in the Woods”—it’s the first piece of your work I’ve ever seen and I was immediately impressed.

I went to see it three different times in three different theatres with three different sets of friends and family members just to spread the love of it (and to enjoy it again for myself). Seeing a film three times while in theatres may not seem like much, but yours is the first film I’ve ever done this for and as a broke, unemployed undergrad that’s a lot of fun-money for me. It was worth every penny. I wish it was still in theatres so I could go see it again.

I love how I was unable to actually explain what genre your film was to other theatre patrons—horror, definitely, but it was also very comedic and the commentary on the horror genre was so smart that I could have fun analyzing it for days.

Thanks for putting so much passion and love into your work; it really shows.

tl;dr: I love the story in “The Cabin in the Woods”—characterizations, plot, etc. were amazing. I admire how you commented on the horror genre without it becoming a parody and while crafting a great story and film.

You've seriously just made my day--thank you. One last quick comment on the movie I wanted to share with you: when my friends and I saw Dana being "killed" by a member of the zombie redneck torture family and we thought that was the ending, we thought it was a great movie as it was. What you did by taking it past that point turned it into a fantastic, unforgettable film.

Thank you again for doing this AMA. I look forward to seeing your future work.
