About this deal

I loved Sarah Alderson's novel The Weekend Away and just watched the Netflix film adaptation which was amazing as well. Marty shows Dana that the grave is connected to an underground elevator, and surmises that someone sent the Buckner family to kill them. The plot follows a group of college students who retreat to a remote forest cabin where they fall victim to a variety of monsters while technicians manipulate events from an underground facility.

The task necessitated renting a much larger facility to use as a workspace, as a crew of around 60 people were recruited. This book kept me on the edge of my seat from the first page trying to figure out what will happen next. As the chamber and entire facility begin to rumble and collapse, they speculate how great it would have been to see the "giant, evil gods" that are about to awaken.Gary Sitterson and Steve Hadley are in a breakroom getting coffee talking about Hadley's domestic issues. A surprise early screening of the film was held at the Butt-Numb-A-Thon in December 2011, attracting highly positive reactions.

David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter remarked, "It's just too bad the movie is never much more than a hollow exercise in self-reflexive cleverness that's not nearly as ingenious as it seems to think. It’s only then that she begins to really see the man she married and what lengths he will go to feed his (and his mothers) ego! In the summer, Dillard stalks muskrats in the creek and contemplates wave mechanics; in the fall, she watches a monarch butterfly migration and dreams of Arctic caribou. The story is teased out gradually through Rose's flashbacks and present day narratives, but takes off on full steam after 75%.In this scenario, the movie is a slap in the face to the horror genre in itself for being repetitive, fixed, and predictable. When Mordecai mentions that he has been living there since the end of the war and rudely scolds Jules when she asks which one, Marty snidely implies that it was the civil war. A poor young woman working as a waitress is swept off her feet by the handsome blue eyed man at her table. I read it in under 24hrs which is quite the achievement when I've been struggling to finish a book this year!
