Glad Nat handled the scares well and enjoyed herself. The gore did not seem to bother much at all, is Nat evolving? haha She even got excited when all the monsters showed up
Camaro English
React to Resident Evil since we have a new rebooted movie coming out next month!
Seymor Butz
Your laughs during cabin in the woods will be more reaction worthy than the scares. Can't wait.

I'm a fan of The Evil Dead franchise. The remake was solid. Nothing wrong with suggesting that one.
Michael G. Munz
I've seen so many people react to Halloween. Hardly any react to Cabin in the Woods. Plus I'm burned out on the Halloween series myself after watching all of them recently, so that's where my CitW vote came from. :)
MightyHobo
To be honest it's not that cerebral of a movie. Not saying it's not good but it hits a lot of horror tropes that you can find outside of the horror genre. If you are only vaguely aware of them you can watch, understand, and get the general meta commentary of the film. There's deeper stuff to dive into too which is why it's a great movie in the first place. It's as deep as it needs to be for just about anyone who watches it.
Dooly
If it were the original Evil Dead series, sure. Why you suggest the remake is beyond me.
Jabari Weathers
I think Scream is a waaaay better gateway than CitW...
Please watch Evil Dead 2013
Niklas
Good pick!
Improperganda Arts
Pleeeeeease watch Arachnophobia. Its an underrated masterpeice!
Camaro English
Watch the resident evil series! Those would be a fun ride lol
Steve J
Nah, Cabin in the Woods is my go to movie to watch when somebody is visiting and I find out they haven't seen it yet. And very rarely have they seen anything from the horror genre (often actively avoiding it). Never had anybody leave disappointed yet. And I get a live react viewing 😁. I usually follow up CitW with Edge of Tomorrow, another great one to watch people watch for the first time.
Nicholas Hentges
Yeah, I enjoy most of the Halloween movies. Only really dislike 6 and resurrections but would even watch those if doing a run through. I'd sooner skip nightmare on elm st. sequels or Friday the 13th sequels (not the first 2 in either case) than Halloween and the remakes/reboots are good in their own right. That being said, Cabin in the Woods is going to be a lot of fun!
Jeff Slocum
I guess it really depends on which Halloween we are talking about. Is it the original, the Rob Zombie remake, the reboot. LOL to many to choose from, but could not have gone wrong with any of them really.
ActionJeans
Cabin in the Woods (and Scream and Galaxy Quest) can be enjoyed on its own, but you get much more out of it if you know what it's tipping its hat to.
Niklas
Don't think it qualifies as horror, but I'd love a reaction to "Dracula - Dead and Loving It!". :D
BoogieWoogie30
Everyone that voted Cabin in the Woods, its a good movie, but not better than Halloween. I will question everyone's judgment from now on.
Cripkie
cabin in the woods is meta, like Scream. Halloween is straight up an environmental phsycopath. Much more terrifying. nurture outways nature every time.
CC
CITW such a wild ride. damn this movie is hella enjoyable
UmmmmmmNo
All in all: She SHOULD have reacted to Hellraiser, A few Friday The Thirteenths, Halloween, A few Nightmare on Elmstreets, the Evil Dead Trilogy, BEFORE sticking Cabin in The Woods (a movie I Freaking ADORE by the by, despite myself) ANYWHERE NEAR a poll, but here we are ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ OH........AND a good base knowledge, at least, of Lovecraftian lore would not hurt either..................................................................................
Joe D. MacGuffinstuff
All I'm saying is next Halloween season if she's still doing Natmares we should ask her to watch some horror comedies. I would've loved to see her react to What We Do In The Shadows. I mean the movie, but the show is arguably even better. Also Poltergeist, not gonna miss an opportunity to plug my default choice in any poll for a newbie to horror, it's one of the most well rounded (I guess that's the term) of horror classics out there, it's kinda got it all, including some humor and heart.
Richard Maurer
Cabin in the Woods is a great film. A great film for people who watch a lot of horror films, so I voted Halloween.
Flyer Daman
a quiet place 2 should be watched also
Dwight Everhart
Halloween is a classic, but Cabin in the Woods has one of the smartest scripts I've seen, and, besides being a great film, it's a meta analysis of horror films. It also has a lot of humor.
Snacky Munchies
Halloween movie franchise is a personal favorite watch all of them every October . The way they filmed it was amazing a bit dated now if you compare them to Horror movies of now, the abilities and artwork has advanced.
Dmitry Ishkov
Appreciation of the movie won't make a good reaction video. I saw Halloween as an adult recently and It's a well made, but boring slasher by today standards. Cabin in the Woods will be a better video.
Myles Away
You would have appreciated Halloween (1978) way more. It's a well made movie that inspired a decade of filmmaking. Cabin in the Woods is fun but as many have stated might be better enjoyed a bit further into the future with a few more films under your belt.
Anthony Willis
While I do enjoy Cabin In The Woods, I have to go with Halloween. It's my personal favorite horror movie of all-time & I think you would appreciate it for the mark it has made on the genre. I hope that even if it doesn't win that you do get to it eventually. Would love to see your reaction to it.
Zulfadhli Abd Latif
where is the conjuring ?
Dooly
Unlike Whedon himself.
Dooly
You’re overestimating her audience.
Dooly
Yeah this was disappointing. I don’t mind Hill House since it’s actually horror related but couldn’t Ted Lasso have come next month instead?
James Bartley
Knives Out need to be a poll again
Dooly
I wouldn’t get my hopes up. I doubt a foreign film will win a poll again anytime soon, if ever.
Marc Ammundsen
Shall we all make a promise to eachother that the first film next year is Tucker and Dale vs Evil? Also, if we can somehow convince Natalie to watch a zombie film, Train to Busan is the scary one to watch after that? :)
Chazzie3679
I respectfully disagree with you on that. The original was much better due to the lack of gore. The original film relied more on what you couldn't see in the shadows as opposed to flat-out jump scares. This is all just my opinion of course.
Joe Blankenship
Halloween is bloodless. It's just scary filmmaking.
Connor Alexander
Halloween -both the original and the recent remake, are fantastic. But Cabin in the Woods is next level.
Ian Cano
Also Nat has mentioned that she likes good suspense and horror but she's not a fan of gore and some scenes in Cabin in the Woods is wall to wall gore whereas Halloween has very little gore. This is something for her to prepare for as it looks like CITW is winning by a large margin.
Chazzie3679
Is this the 1978 version?
Steve B
I think it's not that big on an issue, the idea of what horror movie tropes are are widespread through out pop culture you don't actually have to watch horror movies to know them.
Joe Blankenship
I only subscribe to 2 reaction Patreons. I don't care who else is watching Halloween. I'm not watching them watch it. Luckily, the other reactor I watch likes horror movies. Well, and I watch Mr. Video on Youtube. Y'all need to watch him. He's cool. YEEE!
Sam Kimpton
It was an easy vote for me for Cabin in the Woods. There's so much to enjoy with that movie, and there's a lot to say about the costume design (I don't want to say too much for fear of spoiling anything, but suffice it to say that the costume design in the film is next-level and very clever).
db
To the people complaining that older movies are never chosen, have you considered that people have seen said older movies like Halloween ad nauseam and might just like something fresher. Not to mention, react channels tend to do the same things so seeing different poll results is refreshing to see.
Max du Coudray
The ONLY possible downside to Cabin in the Woods is that it's based on understanding horror tropes and maybe Nat won't appreciate that part of it so much? Love the movie though.
TwistedMagoo
Love Cabin in the Woods :)
Joe Blankenship
so much crying
C.J. Mack
*Sees Cabin in the Woods* on a poll - YAAASSSS finally!
Dooly
Neither.
Eric Janssen
Tradition is Peer Pressure From the Dead...And Millennial Cultural-Amnesia is Thinking You Can Fix a Ferrari Engine Without a Manual. There's a reason they teach you the classic books in high school, but it's up to the rest of us to teach the classic movies. And let's just say your comment just single-handedly PROVED my above comment about Cabin in the Woods' writers and fans...The prosecution rests.
—thoughtstorms—Keith—
I saw a phrase on a church's sign, seems relevant to the "Do the more traditional classic!": Tradition is Peer Pressure From the Dead. Halloween hasn't aged as well as some might be remembering it, and _Cabin~_ is a masterpiece. I've never been into horror enough to put it in my top six favorite genres. But Cabin hits on all levels. Damned funny, and legitimately scary at times. I love it when the polls get it right and it seems like this time is one of those. I am looking forward to seeing it with Natalie.
WackySwacky
You make some strange comments sometimes.
Eric Janssen
Halloween. Of course. Because it should have been first. (And I'm not just saying that because Cabin comes off as snotty, Millennial-ageist and fanboy-privileged.)
Chris King
Can’t believe Halloween isn’t winning
Byron
Because riffs on Star Wars is about all Spaceballs has got going for it. It can’t hold its own the way that Blazing Saddles or even other genre-themed films like High Anxiety can. Cabin isn’t exactly a classic but it’s a lot of fun regardless of whether you’re in it for the Easter eggs.
BJ Stephens
People don't always have unlimited time for stuff, for all we know she has a lot of other work/personal stuff coming up.
Armenusis
And yet she is scarred for life
David
This is the last? But it's middle of month?
Calo Grsf
How can she fully appreciate and understand a tibute comedy film with a lot of references to the older/classic horror films if she didn't watch them? 🤔 And again "recent" doesn't mean quality...
Danishprince
What do you mean?
WackySwacky
Nat would obviously like Cabin more, because the other option is just a straight slasher while Cabin is half a comedy.
Felix Bergman
I wasn't very fond of either, but of the two Cabin in the Woods would be my pick
Chris (darkwater)
Cabin is now a Halloween tradition for me.
SaucyCircus
Poltergeist.
Vincent Valentin
yaaass cabin.
John Rando
I concur.
John Rando
Which Halloween? The original? Then of coooouurse!
Darryl Low
It's so that Cameron has time to edit the remaining Hill Houses, Zombieland, IT and the winner of this poll and get them up on Youtube before the end of October 👍
Jason Dolan
Fran Kranz's directorial debut MASS is a masterpiece and will get nominated for some Oscars
Gryff
Nah. I think it is a unique enough movie that you don't really need to know or have seen a bunch of Halloween/scary movies to enjoy it.
Niklas
Please watch Halloween either way. It's a classic and should be seen.
Bruce Bromley
Wouldn't Cabin in the Woods be for someone that has seen their fair share of horror films? That really doesn't apply to Nat. You have to start with the classics like Halloween.
Andy Jordan
Cabin in the Woods makes so much more sense if you've seen the classics like Halloween, Evil Dead, Hellraiser, The Shining, etc. It's got to be Halloween. Reminds me of a friend of a friend who saw Spaceballs first, didn't see Star Wars 'til much later, and then, upon finally seeing Star Wars, said: "Why did they make an unfunny Spaceballs?"
Navjot Singh
Voting for something coz it looks like it would win kind of defeats the purpose of the poll.
Lomino
I just really enjoyed the cabin in the woods
James Leighton
I quite enjoyed Rob Zombie's take on it, but for sure the original is a must see film.
This_Jedi_crafts
Not a fan of Cabin in the Woods. (though I love Joss Whedon's work) but it looked like it would win so "went with it." Halloween was where it all began (to me) but I guess I'm dating myself (it was the first horror film I ever saw). My sister and I went into our local theater in San Francisco (which had just been converted to two theaters) and thought we were going to see Popeye! I was like "What's happening?!"
James Hadden
I would have to agree regarding lack of films vs tv shows. I’d rather see more films here but I honestly don’t know how many Natalie hasn’t seen so maybe she’s stretching out the content
Boomcity
Do Both!
Joe Blankenship
Why'd she not put It Follows back on the poll?
mrhalfbit
I really would have rather gotten more Natmare film choices instead of it filled with Ted Lasso and Hill House
mrhalfbit
????? Now we have EVEN less on the polls??? Sorry not enough film content anymore.
David of the North
Halloween 🎃 should be a no-brainer. It's a genre Founding Father like Night of the Living Dead and Texas Chainsaw Massacre. If a poll should be done then square the classic off with each other so at least one is chosen.
JediLounger
So there are two more Fridays left in October. If this is the last movie, are you doing It Chapter 2 or A Quiet Place 2 next week?
Jabari Weathers
Halloween v. Scream? Different story, personally!
Jabari Weathers
Halloween by a mile. Cabin is cute and I think you'll like it, but it's even better with more genre films under your belt.
Danishprince
Hard to know the traditional horror formula when the classics hasn't been watched first though :)
Charlie Keeler
Why is there even a poll? If you never watched Halloween it’s a must…not even for horror purposes just film history in general….and definitely the original…Zombie did ok with the remake I guess.
Brian Jones
In this case I would say Halloween has WAY more hype and status than Cabin in the Woods does. For a nice change of pace the more rare of the two is currently winning (thankfully), as every reactor on the planet is doing or has done Halloween.
Joe Blankenship
I love Cabin in the Woods, but if we're talking someone who hasn't seen a lot of horror movies, it's gotta be Halloween.
Calo Grsf
A halloween without Halloween again, it's sad... It's still sad to see every time (often) the most recent/mediatized film chosen, instead of the classics/older or less known ones.
Chuck
what happened to the Conjuring?
Coco is a good Halloween movie lol
Sam White
Why’d u not put the conjuring back on the poll
Navjot Singh
I don't think there's a debate anymore. Start with 1978, then the 2018 one and then the remaining 2.
Randee Carreno
Happy Saturday, Natalie! 😊 Really tough choice for this one. "Cabin in the Woods" ended up getting my vote for this one. Mainly because I've only seen bits and pieces of it. Have a great day & weekend! 😊 Stay Golden! 💛
dinghy
can't go wrong either way. Though it's been a few years since I've watched Cabin in the Woods, I assume it still holds up. Halloween is a top tier classic.
Brandon Scott
A joss Whedon horror comedy…and it’s amazing!
RationallySassy
Cabin in the Woods is great because it likes to play around with the traditional horror formula. Classics are classic but it’s nice to mix things up every once in a while and not know how things will go.
Ben Wheeler
Could you please specify which Halloween? There’s the original, the Rob Zombie remake, and the direct sequel to the original from 2018 but has the exact same name
Calo Grsf
Halloween, no debate here
Darryl Low
Has to be the original and best Halloween movie 🎃
djKENTO
Which Halloween?
