-->'''Marty''': What are you saying? What do you want? You think I'm a puppet, huh? You think I'm going to do a little puppet dance? I'm the boss of my own brain so give it up! *beat* I'm going for a walk.

-->'''Hadley''': I'm actually rooting for this girl. You gotta admire her heart-- (some other guys bring in a bottle of tequila) [[MenDontCry TEQUILA IS MY LADYYYYY!]]

* Most of Marty's ''only sane one'' antics are hilariously forth wall'd.

* Marty: "I dare you all to go upstairs?"

* Amid the monsters are three normal looking [[UsefulNotes/KuKluxKlan Klansmen]], dressed in the typical hooded attire. Why exactly the staff considers Klansmen to be horror movie material is anyone’s guess.

** Then it turns out said bong is collapsible to disguise it as a coffee thermos. [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome AND LATER MARTY USES IT AS A WEAPON TO SAVE DANA!]]

* [[spoiler:[[BrickJoke The merman]]]]. Particularly the [[spoiler: blood spouting from its blowhole.]]

** Of course, this turns into FridgeHorror when you realize [[spoiler:she only said that because she's being forced into the Virgin role, despite not actually being a virgin]].

** In a later scene, some Japanese school girls [[spoiler:exorcise the spirit that was attacking them]]. Sitterson is not amused.

** The whole scene counts, honestly, with the girls [[spoiler:singing happily around the spirit, causing it to enter the body of a "happy frog".]] It certainly ''looks'' [[WidgetSeries like a Japanese movie.]]

* Marty's [[EstablishingCharacterMoment first appearance in the movie]] - driving through town while [[RefugeInAudacity smoking an enormous bong while driving]]. He says something about being certain the cops wouldn't pull him over because his behavior is so far outside normal expectations... which seems to foreshadow [[spoiler: his eventual role as a SpannerInTheWorks]].
** Then it turns out said bong is collapsible to disguise it as a coffee thermos. [[spoiler:[[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome AND LATER MARTY USES IT AS A WEAPON TO SAVE DANA!]]]]
* The BlackComedy in [[spoiler:Curt driving a motorcycle to jump over the gorge while inspiring heroic music starts to play... and then crashing ineffectually into the electrified barrier and falling into the gorge, [[CrossesTheLineTwice hitting the barrier again and again and again as he falls.]]]]
** On the same [[BlackComedy note,]] when [[spoiler:the facility workers are all shown celebrating to [[SoundtrackDissonance REO Speedwagon]], [[MoodDissonance all while Dana is being brutally attacked on the monitors in the background.]]]]
* [[spoiler:Patience sticking her head out of the elevator and looking at the blood-soaked hallway with an "Aw gee, I missed all the fun" expression on her face.]]
** [[spoiler:And the second team of security sent to the elevator room. They run in, blood everywhere and silence. Zombies look up. A beat. *ding!*]]
** On the subject of zombies: After [[spoiler:the first attack by them]], Dana insists on going to search for [[spoiler:Jules]]. She opens the cabin door...only to be confronted with Matthew Buckner, who [[spoiler:[[BlackComedy casually tosses her Jules' severed head]]]].

--> "''That is just rude. I don't know who's in the room.''"

* The results of the workroom bet, split between [[spoiler:maintenance and Ronald the intern]], complete with the latter jumping and celebrating.

* During the party, Ronald is heard telling someone "I'm the intern!" Later, [[spoiler: during the System Purge when the monitors showing the chaos are being viewed, Ronald is shown holding a sign up to the camera reading "Help me! A dragonbat has my scent. [[CallBack I'm the intern.]]]]"
** According to the ''Cabin in the Woods Official Visual Companion'', Joss Whedon mentioned that some things will never be known. Such as [[spoiler: "How did Ronald the Intern survive the end of the world and eventually end up ruling the ancient gods?"]]

* "Yeah... I had to [[spoiler: [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome dismember that guy with a trowel.]]]]" It's the offhand way he says it that clinches this moment.

--> '''Marty:''' [[spoiler:I'm sorry I let you get attacked by a werewolf and then ended the world.]]

* Amid the monsters are three normal looking [[UsefulNotes/KuKluxKlan Klansmen]], dressed in the typical hooded attire. Why exactly the staff considers Klansmen to be horror movie material os anyone’s guess.

* Jules's seductive dance in front of the fireplace is some prime FanService...then the camera shows Dana and Holden staring at her in what can only be described as wide-eyed confusion and incredulity.

-->'''Marty''': Was it the one where the Blues fought the Greys? Maybe it was brother against...brother?

* "Yeah... I had to [[spoiler: [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome dismember that guy with a trowel.]]]]" It's the offhand way he says it clinches this moment.

* During the climactic monster rampage, a zombie clearly grabs an employee and throws him over the railing into the waiting jaws of the giant snake. This one scene, coupled with the lack of even a hint of conflict among the monsters themselves forces us to conclude that they're all friends. A million and one mental images follow.

** Then it turns out said bong is collapsible to disguise it as a coffee thermos. [[spoiler:[[CrowningMomentOfAwesome AND LATER MARTY USES IT AS A WEAPON TO SAVE DANA!]]]]

--> '''Marty:''' I must be on some reality show...(grins for a moment before dropping it and realizing)...my parents are gonna think I'm such a burnout.

** Er, he seems to just have tried [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl to wait till Dana decides]] to [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn put some clothes on]]. Doesn't make it any less funny though.

-->'''Marty''': Ok, I'm drawing a line in the fucking sand, here. DON'T READ THE MYSTERIOUS LATIN!

* "How can you not kill a bunch of nine year olds!?"

--> '''Dana''': I've never done anything like this before.
--> (Dana looks away, and takes a more serious tone)
--> '''Dana''': Well... not never.

-->"[[ClusterFBomb FUUUUCK YOOOOOUUUU!!! Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!]]"

*** The whole scene counts, honestly, with the girls [[spoiler:singing happily around the spirit, causing it to enter the body of a "happy frog".]] It certainly ''looks'' [[WidgetSeries like a Japanese movie.]]

* Marty's [[EstablishingCharacterMoment first appearance in the movie]] - driving through town while [[RefugeInAudacity smoking an enormous bong in the middle of his car]]. He says something about being certain the cops wouldn't pull him over because his behavior is so far outside normal expectations... which seems to foreshadow [[spoiler: his eventual role as a SpannerInTheWorks]].

** Whedon also makes a big show of not knowing whether Creator/ChrisHemsworth [[MarvelCinematicUniverse went on to act in anything else.]]

* In the DVD commentary, Joss Whedon gets a pretty funny line of [[SelfDeprecation Self Deprecation]]/[[HypocriticalHumor Hypocritical Humor]]. He's explaining how they didn't want to make all the monsters shout outs to popular horror icons like Freddy and Jason because "If you took a bunch of iconic characters who had already been in a movie, and then just made [[Film/TheAvengers a movie with all of them together]], you'd be a disgusting hack. *beat* [[OhCrap Oh God]]! We're gonna cut that out, right?"

* Also, if you watch the DVD commentary... ''stick around through the credits''.

** Er, he seems to just have tired [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl to wait till Dana decides]] to [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn put some clothes on]]. Doesn't make it any less funny though.

--> "''That is just rude.''"

-->"FUUUUCK YOOOOOUUUU!!! Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!"

-->'''Marty''': I'm going for a walk.

--> '''Dana''': Well...not never.

** [[spoiler:And the second team of security sent to the elevator room. The run in, blood everywhere and silence. Zombies look up. A beat. *ding!*]]

*** Also on the subject of the redneck zombie torture family, the scene at the cabin, right after Jules' death, b ut before the head tossing, Curt's panicked declaration to run to Marty, before clotheslining Constance...was hilarious

** As this is going on, Truman looks on it all rather distastefully. [[NotSoAboveItAll Then he slowly inches his way back in front of the monitor while strategically covering his crotch]].

** Also Curt, who is tailor-made to look like a jock, turns out to be a sociology major on a full academic scholarship.
