One of the reasons why a film like 'Alien' works is because the characters are stuck on a spaceship and can't really go anywhere.

But when you're a teen sorority girl who's in a house with some slasher dude, just break a window and fucking RUN you moron!

I love this commercial, even the killer is wondering if he even wants to bother after seeing how stupid they are.

At least with Cabin in the Woods their stupidity is a central conceit to the plot, but then that gets into the whole debate as to whether that movie is horror, sci-fi, or comedy.

I always thought it was supposed to be all three as a meta commentary?

It's definitely a meta commentary on horror as a genre, but so much of the movie is sci-fi and comedy that I wouldn't argue with someone if they said it wasn't a horror movie at all.
