Whedon, Goddard for 'Cabin In The Woods'

Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard will work together on new horror Cabin In The Woods.

The pair, who worked together on Buffy The Vampire Slayer, have co-written the script for the big screen project.

"There's a reason the title is so straightforward," Goddard told MTV. "It's its own sub-genre, the cabin in the woods, and this is sort of our take on it. It's fresh and new."

He added: "It's genius, it's funny. It's got a harder and darker edge, but it's also got classic Whedon qualities. It'll rip your heart out and be heartfelt at the same time."
