After reading reviews before this film was released, I was somewhat excited by the premise that finally a director was going to take horror back to the glory days of the early 80's. I was SADLY mistaken.
Cabin Fever was a horrible attempt by Director Eli Roth, and just a downright bad movie. I felt embarrassed and foolish upon leaving the theater. Old school 80's films like Friday the 13th should take Cabin Fever as a smack in the face and a childish insult for even trying to associate itself with that era.
The ridiculous humor was much too far over the top, and the plot and believability of this film was simply a joke. The ending of this film, with the surviving actor proudly proclaiming that "he made it" then only to be eliminated was just to much to take and a sour and ridiculous end to an already terrible film. Then to top matters off, the credits roll to a scene featuring some comical Hillbilly's with totally over the top country violin music playing in the background that begs you to ask yourself "what in the world I'm I doing in this theater watching this disgusting dog poop of a mess". I feel horrible...and should be slapped for ever stepping foot into the theater in the first place.
Let this be known, I absolutely love "GOOD or even TOLERABLE" horror film, and Cabin Fever is a disgrace to the industry.
