May 18, 2009This low budget horror thriller opened a lot of doors for director Eli Roth, who later worked with Quentin Tarantino and very clearly is a big fan of "Deliverance" (think violent rednecks and odd kids on porches). The characters in this gory blood feast actually start out somewha... ...( read more )

A bunch of college graduates turn against each other after one of them gets a terrible flesh eating virus...

August 27, 2008Eli Roth is a very aggressive filmmaker. He obviously wants to land on the "Gorific horror directors" map and though I do like his films, I think he should prove himself with good rather than gory films. "Cabin Fever" is very graphic; the story is barely passable (You've probably... ...( read more )

Ty Burr, Boston Globe
The movie is well shot and decently acted for its genre, but it lacks the distinctive vision to make it of value to anyone not already convinced of the inherent entertainment value in flying body part... full review

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
This impressively icky, witty scare pic from director Eli Roth combines the hillbilly-country horror of the first Blair Witch Project with the viral decimation and paranoia of 28 Days Later. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Horror fans will cherish Cabin Fever, and stout-hearted movie lovers in general would be wise to scope it out even if they have to peek between their fingers. full review

October 21, 2007If Vincent is in number two, i'm watching it. I loved the part where she bangs the guy merely because she knows she will die . That's exactly what i would do.

August 19, 2007Oh help us all. "Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever" is due for release in 2008 but with no Eli Roth. Instead director Ti West will take on the sequel.

July 9, 2007What a terrible movie. Anyone actually though it was gory? Or scary? I just can't believe there's a sequel to this...

April 17, 2007So boring. I watched in about 2004 and thought it was terrible. The plot is that a group of friends go up into a cadin in the woods. It turns out there isnt a killer in this movie but the water is contaminated! Its not worth seeing.
