Just Painful to watch, what the hell was that about, one thing this movie teach me it's to watch the trailer or read the plot before watching a movie ever again, and not judge the movie only by it's poster (rookie mistake).

Cabin Fever is a weird movie that doesn't even know what it wants to be until its half over. I would like to be an atmospheric horror film, but its too cheesy and has too poor acting to pull it off. It degenerates into an uncomfortably Cabin Fever is a weird movie that doesn't even know what it wants to be until its half over. I would like to be an atmospheric horror film, but its too cheesy and has too poor acting to pull it off. It degenerates into an uncomfortably funny horror romp, in the vein of Dead Alive/Braindead or Feast. Yet Cabin Fever is still it's own kind of beast, from it's disgusting decomposing characters, to the ludicrous character development, and an ending that should have any horror fan laughing. Imperfect, leaning towards stupid, but still an entertaining entry onto the fringe of Horror.… Expand

This movie is everything Eli Roth set out for it to be. A fun, gross, horror-comedy that is a throwback to the movies of this genre of the 70s' & 80s'.

OKay, this film is not smart, is not intentionally funny and lacks any kind of story worth commenting on. The casting is awful, the performances are a joke, the shock factor is pathetic.

The casting is awful, the performances are a joke, the shock factor is pathetic. This is everything that is wong with the horrow genre today. What I will say is that you won't be bored for the time you watch it as long as you are not alone, because you will simply be in constant amazement at just how poor a film can be.… Expand

It was fun to see Rider Strong in a serious (well somewhat serious) role but I kept waiting for something scary to happen. If you take this not as a scary movie rather a infection/survival story you will probably be able to enjoy it a bitIt was fun to see Rider Strong in a serious (well somewhat serious) role but I kept waiting for something scary to happen. If you take this not as a scary movie rather a infection/survival story you will probably be able to enjoy it a bit more. The human lack of compassion element is not even close to believable which really makes the films selling point hard to buy. One of Cabin Fevers saving graces however is one of the funniest ending in recent memory (and I don't mean unintentionally funny). I guess if you like special effects the blood usage in this movie is pretty good but I had a hard time with the movie as I was expecting something completely different than killer tap-water.… Expand

Eli roth is the only true genius of horror movies working today. Rent this movie for "bad movie night" with some friends and you'll be in for a pleasant surprise. Go ahead and buy the DVD to for the hilarious claymation shorts of "The Rotten Fruit" and Eli Roth's commentary track, which is one of the best I've heard. This movie isn't lame or boring or stupid, people just don't understand it.… Expand

The obviously stuffed dear going through the guys windshield was just about funniest thing I've ever seen in a movie. Lots of unintended laughs.

But Is it entertaining, I would say so. The characters are so bad, thankfully your wish for them to be dead is granted XD It's actually kinda crazy b/c I didn't expect too much of it b/c I thought it was a killer in a woods like a slasher film. But instead, it's a disease. I wasn't expecting that so much lol part of nature is what's killing people. But I will give it credit that its better than how "The Happening" explained how people. Even though, the characters are stupid, but the idea was well done and it's entertaining with the weird moments. Thankfully I bought this for only $2 at my video store. It's just worth for the entertainment and funny moments.… Expand

Eli Roth is known in the horror genre for making grotesque, brutal horror films like they did back in 70's and 80's. That all kind of got started with this movie. A body-horror about a flesh eating virus infecting a bunch of dumb college kidsEli Roth is known in the horror genre for making grotesque, brutal horror films like they did back in 70's and 80's. That all kind of got started with this movie. A body-horror about a flesh eating virus infecting a bunch of dumb college kids partying in a cabin in the woods, Cabin Fever slowly ups the dangers that are keeping the characters from getting help. They may have to contend with a savage dog, isolation, and even some gun-toting rednecks, but what really keeps them from getting help for their deadly new skin condition is just their own stupidity. It's hard to take the movie seriously in any regard as the numbskulls manage to muck up every opportunity to save themselves. Luckily, it's clear Roth doesn't really want us to. The movie has a lot of humor to go along with the blood. Some of it dark, most of it dumb.

The tongue in cheek style is appreciated as too much gloom and doom to go alongside the gore would have just made for a monotonously dark movie. One I don't think Roth would have been capable of pulling off. No, it was better that he stuck to gross fun and callbacks to some of his favorite horror classics. The influences are clear and the nods are appreciated. Especially since it's a fairly original concept holding it all together instead of just straight up copying. As a result, Cabin Fever is pretty good. A solid, original, and ultimately brainless horror movie. Worth a watch for genre fans even if it's just to see where one of it's more prominent names in modern horror got his start.… Expand

Lots of fun, gore, teenage-type dialogue, sex, partying. If you take it for what it tries to do, it's a decent attempt at movie-making. But almost the entire plot is pointless, until the very end where we get introduced to the point of the pointlessness. In a way, it criticizes itself by exposing the danger of ignorance. The entire movie was one big exposition of that very ignorance! I don't know if that's brilliant or stupid. I guess it's both.… Expand

An incredibly bad movie that lacks enjoyment, suspense, thriller and the surprise factor of a horror movie.....
