Definitely unforgettable, it's destined for cult classic status.

Firmly in the tradition of the new generation of pulp-horror movies, Cabin Fever gives good value in both the humour and the gore stakes, without confusing one with the other.

Severed-head- and-shoulders above the spate of recent shockers.

... disgusting and brainless ...

You've got to love a horror movie that wears its bloody influences so happily on its sleeve, and then proceeds to roll it up and start swinging the axe in a different direction.

Audience Reviews for Cabin Fever

Feb 20, 2015Cabin Fever makes no attempt to break new ground or re-invent classic material, it is a straight up re-telling of a horror cliche, but that is perfectly fine. The punches, scares and gore are all mixed just right, creating a fine addition to a horror staple.Shane S Super Reviewer

Jan 09, 2013Spoiler: the virus spreads effectively, they all die... Except for one, but then he gets predictably shot. A bit like Night of the Living Dead, but shame on me for comparing the two. This was a very subtle torture porn (by my standards anyway) with a very predictable format. At first, as I was watching this on a stream with friends, someone noted that they were getting a Children of the Corn vibe. I agreed, and thought the sensation was cool and this film was going somewhere. But my expectations failed me. There's not a whole lot I can say about this film... Some of the characters are real douches and annoyed me. There were some comedic elements (see: Deputy Winston), and while that made the film a bit more memorable it'd didn't change my (dis)favor for the film either way. Not my cup of tea, but perhaps someone else would enjoy it.Horrific R Super Reviewer

Jul 01, 2012[img]http://images.rottentomatoes.com/images/user/icons/icon13.gif[/img] Definitely Eli Roth's most inspired, and most substantial film. But that's just damning it with very faint praise. Firstly, the acting is much better than I expected it would be, and the gore is disgusting and boasts some pretty impressive bloody corpse special effects. Especially considering the tiny budget it was made on. All this adds up to the construction of a cheesy 80's horror movie, which was exactly what Roth was trying to mimic. However he shows almost no creativity in Cabin Fever and for me he never demonstrated the extent of his talent. There was also very few shocks, and once I adjusted to the carnage, consequently, it wasn't that scary. But in the end it's interesting twist to the typical cabin in the woods story doesn't fully make it work. I think its designed brilliantly and has an environmental message, and I admire Roth's aspirations to not skimp on gore or sex, but it was unnecessary to the plot. To me, it just felt to me like a bunch of stuff i'd seen from some of the classic horror movies mashed in with one interesting premise. I honestly wish it could have been better, but redemptively, it was an honourable failure.Directors C Super Reviewer

Jan 12, 2012'Cabin Fever' is as bloody as it is funny... well, maybe not. But seriously, its a well told horror flick that keeps you en-grossed(out!) up until the very end.Lindsey D Super Reviewer
