Eli Roth: “The initial idea for Cabin Fever came while I was working on a horse farm in Iceland when I was 19 years old,, I had been cleaning out a barn and got a skin infection on my face. I woke up in the middle of the night scratching my cheek, thinking I had a mosquito bite. I looked down at my hand and saw chunks of skin. The next morning I attempted to shave and literally, shaved half my face off. The strangest part was not only did it not hurt-it actually satisfied some strange itch underneath my skin. I went to see a dermatologist, who, judging by the horrified and puzzled look on her face, had never seen anything like it before.”
I had the same thing happen to me as a child. It didn't really hurt but it itched. It spread all over my elbow exposing the meat underneath my skin. I was treated by antibiotics and some good ol' rubbing alcohol. I think my mom told me it was some kind of flesh eating bacteria that I had gotten but didn't know where it came from.
At least it wasn’t physically painful, considering she would have stopped if it was. Does that make it better? No, but at least she wasn’t suffering though it
Fun fact: That part was inspired by the director's own experience when he was infected with necrotising fascilitis, and shaved half of his own face off by mistake one morning
Fun fact: Cabin fever was filmed at camp Raven Knob. A boy scout camp in North Carolina that people from all over the country come to. I've actually visited the cabin when I was a boy scout.
Thank you for telling me another location on Earth that I'll never go to. The setting of this movie is seriously creepy and the areas near the cabin are haunting. Not only that but the roads are menacing at night time.
This movie is actually terrifying. Imagine not knowing what water was contaminated. This would be worse than zombies because it would spread fast that ugh body fluids etc.
The concept is terrifying but Eli Roth has a horrible habit of driving plot by contrivance. "Hey there's some kids with an infectious disease - go ahead and just shoot them." / "Well, we're not equipped for this sort of thing so let's just dump the body by the river." Like, it's a contagion movie that also injects chaotic stupid villainous/nefarious antagonists because reasons. Kinda loses me.
0:03 my family store. Priddys General Store. I was in like 1st it 2nd grade when this was being filmed and got to meet the cast to include Eli Roth! Asked me to be in the movie but was afraid I’d die. Little did I know it was just an extra and my sister and cousin are in the credits walking into the store. Fun fact :)
Karen actually did know about her wound on her groin. You remember Paul goes into the bathroom and finds infected blood everywhere. Then Karen ask to go to the bathroom because she's bleeding. There's actually a lot of hidden context in this movie. Also that the town knew about the virus attempting to cover it up so there water sales don't decline.
I have to admit, the doctors of this movie are apparently the laziest idiots ever: "Oh, we have someone infected with a never before seen infection that spreads quickly and eats away at the body at an extremely rapid pace... let's just dump him in the river." I would actually think they'd contact another hospital and deliver him to there to be properly examined, more than likely after giving him the mercy of an injection.
I mean, it's also a "Crazy Hillbillies" movie on-top of being an outbreak film. The whole point of the movies are to play up the stereotypes of country/mountain-folk to be inbred dimwits (to varying degrees).
They wouldn't burn the body, every hospital, pretty much world wide, has a way to quarantine or section off a room for "infectious / biological threats" they would however let the person die without care, and then would examine the body with specialized equipment. the bigger crime is those damn kids filling a cooler from the river for lemonade? who the fuck would EVER do that? even little ass kids know you don't just drink from rivers and lakes. not to mention walking all the way down to the river instead of filling up at a tap?? Not to worry though, all water (except well water) is run through many cleaning stages and filtration before it comes into your house, you'll die from the chlorine in it long before some bacterial infection.
And incineration of any biohazardous material. Like goddamn, you'd think that they'd be scared enough by such a thing being infectious that they would adhere to proper protocol, but, no. "Eh, leave him in the river."
I love how at the beginning the group of young adults finds a man who is clearly injured and is begging for help, and they respond by shooting at him, when he manages to drag himself to nearest civilization he can find the group instantly slams the door in his face and when he, arguably justifiably, tries to get to their car after getting refused any kind of help, the group just goes out and straight up murder the guy in cold blood. Those people are psychopaths.
It's a bit of understandable behavior but way over exaggerated, I could understand not wanting the guy to enter the home or touch them as before the throwing up blood, his skin had begun to flake off, which maybe made them think of leprosy? Since I'm pretty sure most people know about leprosy one way or another and they know that shit bad, get away from that shit. But to the extent of being like, "Yeah let's just fucking kill this guy" is insane, even if this was a crackhead doped out of his mind I'm pretty sure you'd try to knock him out rather than kill him. So yeah, fuck em
its interesting because horror movies are often in a small way moral stories. and think about it, had the hunting guy told him to wait at a distance and they would call the paramedics..he would never have fallen into the water infecting them, and provided the paramedics were careful about ppe, the death toll would have been basically the first guy and his dog. and they would have known something was up so the "bad meat" situation would have been culled and the situation contained. in the real world, as someone said upstream there was a degree of hillbilly stereotype, that carried everyone's actions beyond the uncanny valley. but rationally it could have been fixed that quickly.
While I don't remember the exact wording, having not seen the movie in years, the line around that moment's insane logic still sticks with me. Something along the lines of "You're sick, that's your problem. My kid bites you and gets sick, that's my wife's problem. My wife gets sick, that's my problem. We need to eliminate THE PROBLEM!" *Racks shotgun*
This was the hardest watch for me because body horror is precisely the horror that gets me every single time. Watching living people melt is... a true nightmare. Still, love your content!
According to Cabin Fever 3: Patient Zero, which was actually a prequel to the first film, it was revealed that the virus (though it was also called a bacteria) came from a laboratory located on an island off of the Dominican Republic. Even in the beginning, it was capable of infecting anything and everything animal since it infected fish and humans all the same. Surprised you didn't mention the other films.
Yeah really! I remember back in the day when October finally rolled around at least here in North Texas the cold fronts would have already begun to roll through. Initially they cold fronts would just be a change of wind direction, but almost always deliver desert dry-like air. So it would be a natural nose bleed season for a while for many Texans. For the first half of October the cold fronts would become more frequent at the same time becoming more cold instead of just a change of wind direction and some of the driest air masses possible. By Halloween the days would be mild but the nights would be fricken freezing. Good times weather wise... good times...
Director Eli Roth BASED the virus on his personal experience with Necrotizing Fasciitis. Only in real life NF is a bacteria, not a virus and it's also MUCH MUCH less contagious than in this movie, although the movie does show a fairly accurate depiction of the symptoms and it really does spread that fast and can kill you in 24 hours. You also often can get it from swimming in contaminated water if you have an open wound (even as minor as a papercut or bug bite).
I once had a staph infection in my leg, and can say from experience that this is upsettingly possible. 0/10 would not recommend (I’m fine now, luckily I got it pretty much as far from my heart as possible and it never got into my bloodstream.)
the most unbelievable part is the kids getting water for their lemonade by going to a creek and filling a big container with it. haha could they really carry that much water? Aside from that, why don't they have access to water at home that they have to go outside to get it? O_o even my family that lives deep in rural nebraska has access to water.
@J Tech Yes but kids do not think or see things as we do as adults. The kids aren’t stupid, they’re just kids doing what kids do. If someone much older did that same thing, such as a teen for example, then one could say there’s no excuse for their behavior.
Masa VI Um I’m a urban suburbs raised child and even I knew at 6 don’t drink water that does not come from the tap. Your telling me that parent in this area are not going to teach there kids base safety.
@@MasterTobiification Stupid parents do occur in the real world .Out of all of the things in this movie to question, the existence of stupid people is not one of them.
XRufus7X I was thinking the same thing, clearly the director just wanted some fucked up way to show how totally fucked the rest of the towns people are but why that had the kids taking water from that creek idk cuz that is a pretty gnarly place to get water from
Because that's normal and I eat while watching these videos all the time, not because I can but because I end up having food when watching videos from this guy's channel.
@@KaiTheRedWarrior8244 I think I watched this movie when I was 10 or something so the shaving scene didn't affect me much because I didn't know the principles of shaving yet. Now as an adult it gives me the chills lol.
"college is fun!"---- yup, unless you're going during covid..... zoom meetings are an absolute depressing stressful mess of misery. god i hate this shit
@@_Dynamight_ because learning this level of math im in with minimal interaction is much more difficult. cant ask questions on the spot. many of these teachers have no experience with online teaching, everyone of my classes does things differently completely, many of them are using multiple different sites to assign work from, its a lot to keep track of. i also have been using computers for entertainment for many many years so my level of focus is aweful.... i knew online school would be a problem for me which is why i made the effort to go to a school in person.
@RBEmpathy That was the remake. I know it was made not too long ago but was remade (remake was terrible too).There are 1 sequel and 1 prequel the sequel taking off where the first movie leaves off and the prequel with Sean Astin aka Samwise Gangee. The sequel I enjoyed was where the first one leaves off (Water supply taken from reservoir is made into bottled water for nearby school) and the infection ensues while school has a prom. Sean Astin one is super campy and just gorey for gore sake
@@RomanticallyAttractedToGru yea last year but this year It’s been pretty warm till like late November it usually starts to get called late September and during October but on my sisters bday on the 28th of October we could if had a pool party with how warm it was
@@danielcasillas1133 there's not much of a difference between some ultra high budget movie and a low budget for me, I'm glad I can look past goofy stuff, like a hand pushing the corpse over when the one guy falls in. (Bottom right of the screen)
Honestly, that’s probably what saved him tbh. If he just got hammered the entire time then he wouldn’t have been drinking from any contaminated sources. Remember, he has no idea how this disease spreads so using pre-packaged and sealed sources of liquid (containing alcohol I might add) would be his best bet. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then.
It's crazy to think that Eli Roth got the idea for this film, from, his past experience,while working on a horse farm, in Iceland, getting a sort of parasite on his face , causing him so much discomfort, he started itching his face, which eventually caused layers of skin to come off his face.
No lie everyday i pray this disease don't happen in real life, I'm so afraid of this happening and I don't blame the friend with the beer leaving his dumb friends
To be fair, a screwdriver through the ear straight into the brain would probably cause that exact reaction. Your brain would most likely shut down before you’re fully aware of what happened.
Love your vids Roanoke, but I have to disagree on this being a virus. In the sequel, Cabin Fever 2, it is confirmed that the infected are suffering from necrotizing fasciitis, a bacterial infection. Eli Roth has even confirmed he got his inspiration for the movie from his own experience with necrotizing fasciitis. Due to the severity of the symptoms and myonecrosis depicted in both films, I would suggest mutant/weaponized Clostridium perfringens or Clostridium septicum bacteria as the source of the infection. I highly recommend checking out the sequel, I found that movie much more interesting that the original.
The third movie prequel seems to suggest it’s something different as they’re studying it in a lab as if it’s a novel strain. They also can’t identify it in this movie. Even if it’s a small hospital they should surely be able to identify bacteria, unless they’ve never seen them before.
The most dreaded thing about this movie is that it had remake for some reason, which uses the EXACT same script and is almost shot-by-shot remake. One of many world's mysteries.
@@J.J.Jameson_of_Daily_BugleIt’s fuckin stupid, amiright? What is the point? The original is wayyyy better with great practical effects and an actual feeling of doom and rugged suffering.
I've watched the third movie (oops) for the first time and let me tell you, the scene where he says she's wet for the wrong reasons made my stomach hurt for even hours after the movie ended
This movie scarred me as a child. I was so paranoid to drink water for a few weeks after I watched a bit of it. My mom had to comfort and reassure me constantly about water being ok
Me too I literally would never drink water from the faucet and always check my body for red marks or wound I was so paranoid and terrified to watch that movie again.
I was 12 years old when I watched this movie and even now I still want to curl into a ball remembering that lipless girl with her teeth exposed. Thats why I do not go to KOA Cabins anymore. I admit I used to go camping at KOA Cabin/ RV Park Reserves but I stopped doing that back in 2007. I'm glad I did for I am not a outdoors person no. I'm better off staying at hotels.
I thought you would mention the following but fun fact: Eli a Roth (the director) was inspired to write and film this movie after he contracted a flesh eating virus on one of his vacations and decided to write about it.
It would be great to get a sequel video to this one that incorporates the second and third entries (ignore the remake). I'd like to see how you factor in any retcons and additions to the lore.
"the most expensive party ever" yea.... that uhh... that sounds terrible lol. considering i graduated with a stem degree maybe im not the typical college attendant. im a total nerd. but uhh. that was not my college. mine was stress for 3 years and then graduate with a diploma and now i make stuff. cool.
I actually have to put real life before college. So still working on my associates....ya every time I here someone say that I think "ah so daddy payed for you and/or heavily supported you".
@@takuame7 It's alright if you're able put that knowledge to good use(regardless of earning enough money in the process or not), don't know about you but where I am college is a waste of time and money cause most(not all) aren't able do anything with that knowledge and end up doing a job at a bank or teach little kids multiplication, you know stuff that's not even remotely related to what they learned in college.
@@chadthundercock4806 I completely forgot I made this pessimistic/jaded ass comment holy shit. But naw man "social skills" doesn't lessen your school work load. Unless you mean getting the teacher to like you and or cheating. Regardless I ended up just dropping college due to the covid bs....I was paying full price for virtual class rooms with professors refusing to teach...maybe I'll come back once it stops becoming a scam.
I love this film. Utterly horrifying and, unlike most horror films, there's no antagonist or protagonist, there's no hope, there's just grim misery. Quite rare.
I do enjoy your take on these horrible diseases and the *Terrifying* stuff you discuss. Also while do the death scroll you're voice always picks up! I know it will always be simultaneously horrified AND entertained! Always find them a good use of time! I would agree with mars University motto from futurama "knowledge brings fear". After covid in my home country I spoke to one of the most qualified women who worked in n medicine (in my old job) and while discussing lock down protocol she remarked "we finally got people to WASH THEIR HANDS* she was such a cool person to deal with (retired nearly 20 yrs) and we need more like her you and all the peeps who think of the other, BEFORE themselves. Anyways I'm gonna still be horrified... Keep up the good work and also we get a lot of strays, Dr mombo is happening for the next dude/dudette that ends up here!
Dude I have never cringed at one of your videos EXCEPT for this one. I don’t know why, but good job. No one has ever managed to make me cringe from gore. Good, job.
Dang... That poor hermit. He just wanted to feed his dog... Also, I was just at my family’s cabin in the north woods, while we do have a pump that brings lake water up to our cabin for plumbing we don’t try to drink it too much because even though it’s a clean lake it still is a lake. We tend to use water bottles but when we go into the nearby city to visit a relative we bring some gallon jugs to get some extra water in case. The water from the city is so gross, it’s heavily HEAVILY chlorinated, not enough to make you sick but it’s still really horrible tasting. After watching this though... I’m glad the water I was drinking was so heavily cleaned and treated.
The scene where they are "leaving school" and shout at that kid is actually downtown of my hometown. Did a double take the first time I saw it. Good video as always.
Using the Flood theme from the "Library" level of HALO: COMBAT EVOLVED for this video was a stroke of genius. It really conveys just how terrifying this infection can get.
Video suggestion. Fallout. Radiation. Whats actually happening in the body? Further discussion. The children of atom. Can humans feasibly be more resistant to radiation?
I would like a Fallout video. Go over radiation, rad away, radioactive soda and the children of atom. Hell throw in chems too. Or make chems their own video.
i belive the children of atom simply have the GHOULISH mutation desribed as your still human ON THE OUTSIDE that the soul survivor can gain it makes them not only highly resistant to radiation but lets one HEAL from it and naturally reduces rad level over time basically making someone have all the benifits of the ghoul except possible immortality with no necrosis
@@DamianBloodkil i belive its more of a half way thing if your lucky you born with the ghoulish mutation which prevents you from becoming a ghoul while keeping many of its benifits but you lose the ghoul immortality however the fact its a mutation means it can be genetically passed on making it extremely usefull
You don't have to go to college. It's not for everyone. Also, I did have fun at times, but almost everyone was stressed af, working a ton and trying to go to class too. The partying stereotype is only half true, honestly. I feel like most college students are too stressed, busy, and poor to party all the time. EDIT: also, the disease is based on necrotizing fasciitis, but that's actually a bacterial infection (a rare one at that) and not a virus. Most people's immune systems can fight it off. The real disease is also extremely painful. Also, this movie ruined my life because I'm a germaphobe and spent hours googling how to NOT get this lol.
The second you mentioned Stuart Johnson's syndrome I shuddered. I had a mild/moderate case of it and my god, it was VERY uncomfortable and disgusting. So watching this just made me super uncomfortable given I had skin peeling and horrid rashes/enflamed skin that could bleed at times.
Honestly this is one of the scariest movies i have ever watched, the very idea that shit like this is actually possible is scarier than any supernatural force.
it's more like depressed anxiety that hits you near the end of the party when you're drunk and realizing you are more alone amongst people than you are alone at home.
I was thinking it could be from filoviridae, and related to Ebola and Marburg. Those are also hemmoragic fevers and known to infect pigs. The adenovirus seems to make more sense though. Nice vid!
Actually her surviving would have been the perfect time to use the "It was all just a dream!" style ending. Then you'd see she was imagining it all as the vines slowly pull her into the dark corners of the temple.
I don't know why, I always get this form of deja vu. Like I feel like I've watched Roanoke do a video on Cabin Fever, but like months ago. I have this feeling with a lot of videos I watch. Something new comes out from someone I watch, but I swear I've watched it before it was actually uploaded
I actually figured this was similar to some form of leperacy but I suppose it would need to be effecting the skin exclusively. But I always assumed to some level it was a flesh eating bacteria
Your verbiage and Sense of humor. Is like how i talk. But that isnt why i subscribed. I did cause you do ana amazing job making videos. Thanks bud, for all the effort and sharing it. This reminded me of Leprosy with some Rabies symptoms. Be well and stay safe.
Roanoke I have to say this movie is way more scary to me now because I almost died of Stevens-Johnson syndrome when I was 16. I had an allergic reaction to a drug I was prescribed I received a lace rash over my entire body. The doctors at the hospital said that their was nothing they could and told my parents to take me home because I am terrified of hospitals and they wanted to keep me calm and happy the doctors told my parents that it was a roll of the dice whether I would live since if I got Stevens-Johnson it would be all the skin on my body shedding off me like a snake and at that point all they could do was ease my death. Soooo... Yeah this movie is way more terrifying. Still love your channel and content can't wait to see more!
@@RoanokeGaming thanks, I didn't know you reply to comments and by the way, how's warhammer 40k analogies going? Or did you dicede to drop analizing that?
What makes movies like this so horrifying is that they're usually based on something that actually exists and magnifies it to be much, much worse. In this case, the rare but still dangerous Necrotizing Fasciitis, or flesh-eating bacteria.
Isn't there a prequel that was eventually made that explained the virus as originating from a biowarfare lab? I remember forcing myself to watch through it, but I don't remember anything beyond that.
I actually did a report on this movie for my virology course in college, which is hilarious. You do a great job here. It was the general consensus of myself, and my professor, that the disease was more likely to be bacterial, or possibly some kind prion, as a viral contagion wouldn't have such a varied incubation period. From there, we decided it was likely a mutant strain of Staph, that had exchanged DNA with either some kind of E. Coli. or even a Strep bacteria.
Ok since I'm early i just wanted to tell you maybe cover the movie anilhilation because of its weirdness both psychologically and biologically confuse me like is it possible for a object to do that even if it's alien thx
That movie has way more to do with physics and metaphysics than any kind of infection or disease. Nothing that goes on in it has to do with any kind of virology.
@@RainbowRandolf at one point of the movie you can see them taking blood samples and examining it reveals that changes are happening on a cellular level which means that virology could also be in play no telling what kind weird bacteria the zone made given the fact that zone is basically a giant scrambler of everything
You left out the "Pancakes" scene where Dennis jumped off the porch, practiced karate and bit the infected Bert on the hand. That's what caused Dennis' father and friends to pursue Bert.
This movie has one of my favorite, most random jokes ever. With the convenience store clerk and his gun, and at the end revealing the joke. Other than the gore, this has stuck with me the most, I have no idea why.

I have to admit, the doctors of this movie are apparently the laziest idiots ever: "Oh, we have someone infected with a never before seen infection that spreads quickly and eats away at the body at an extremely rapid pace... let's just dump him in the river." I would actually think they'd contact another hospital and deliver him to there to be properly examined, more than likely after giving him the mercy of an injection.
Its either that or just send the police to shoot the guy and burn the infected corpses
I mean, it's also a "Crazy Hillbillies" movie on-top of being an outbreak film. The whole point of the movies are to play up the stereotypes of country/mountain-folk to be inbred dimwits (to varying degrees).
They'd infact burn the body
They wouldn't burn the body, every hospital, pretty much world wide, has a way to quarantine or section off a room for "infectious / biological threats" they would however let the person die without care, and then would examine the body with specialized equipment.

Not to worry though, all water (except well water) is run through many cleaning stages and filtration before it comes into your house, you'll die from the chlorine in it long before some bacterial infection.
And incineration of any biohazardous material.
Like goddamn, you'd think that they'd be scared enough by such a thing being infectious that they would adhere to proper protocol, but, no. "Eh, leave him in the river."
I love how at the beginning the group of young adults finds a man who is clearly injured and is begging for help, and they respond by shooting at him, when he manages to drag himself to nearest civilization he can find the group instantly slams the door in his face and when he, arguably justifiably, tries to get to their car after getting refused any kind of help, the group just goes out and straight up murder the guy in cold blood.
Those people are psychopaths.
IRL he would probably be nuked to death.
It's a bit of understandable behavior but way over exaggerated, I could understand not wanting the guy to enter the home or touch them as before the throwing up blood, his skin had begun to flake off, which maybe made them think of leprosy? Since I'm pretty sure most people know about leprosy one way or another and they know that shit bad, get away from that shit. But to the extent of being like, "Yeah let's just fucking kill this guy" is insane, even if this was a crackhead doped out of his mind I'm pretty sure you'd try to knock him out rather than kill him.
So yeah, fuck em
@@karnivorebear4652 It does not take that much to knock someone out. It takes a lot more to kill than to incapacitate.
@@ignisshadowflame1027 I don't know about that sniper rifles are pretty easy to kill with.
its interesting because horror movies are often in a small way moral stories. and think about it, had the hunting guy told him to wait at a distance and they would call the paramedics..he would never have fallen into the water infecting them, and provided the paramedics were careful about ppe, the death toll would have been basically the first guy and his dog. and they would have known something was up so the "bad meat" situation would have been culled and the situation contained. in the real world, as someone said upstream there was a degree of hillbilly stereotype, that carried everyone's actions beyond the uncanny valley. but rationally it could have been fixed that quickly.

According to Cabin Fever 3: Patient Zero, which was actually a prequel to the first film, it was revealed that the virus (though it was also called a bacteria) came from a laboratory located on an island off of the Dominican Republic. Even in the beginning, it was capable of infecting anything and everything animal since it infected fish and humans all the same. Surprised you didn't mention the other films.

"when the fall was actually cold" I felt that one
Yeah really! I remember back in the day when October finally rolled around at least here in North Texas the cold fronts would have already begun to roll through. Initially they cold fronts would just be a change of wind direction, but almost always deliver desert dry-like air. So it would be a natural nose bleed season for a while for many Texans. For the first half of October the cold fronts would become more frequent at the same time becoming more cold instead of just a change of wind direction and some of the driest air masses possible. By Halloween the days would be mild but the nights would be fricken freezing. Good times weather wise... good times...

Director Eli Roth BASED the virus on his personal experience with Necrotizing Fasciitis. Only in real life NF is a bacteria, not a virus and it's also MUCH MUCH less contagious than in this movie, although the movie does show a fairly accurate depiction of the symptoms and it really does spread that fast and can kill you in 24 hours. You also often can get it from swimming in contaminated water if you have an open wound (even as minor as a papercut or bug bite).
That shaving thing has always been one of my biggest fears.
I once had a staph infection in my leg, and can say from experience that this is upsettingly possible. 0/10 would not recommend (I’m fine now, luckily I got it pretty much as far from my heart as possible and it never got into my bloodstream.)
I once shaved my shin weirdly and it literally shaved like 3 inches of skin off, it was horrifying 😭
the most unbelievable part is the kids getting water for their lemonade by going to a creek and filling a big container with it. haha could they really carry that much water? Aside from that, why don't they have access to water at home that they have to go outside to get it? O_o even my family that lives deep in rural nebraska has access to water.
They’re just kids is why lol
@J Tech Yes but kids do not think or see things as we do as adults. The kids aren’t stupid, they’re just kids doing what kids do. If someone much older did that same thing, such as a teen for example, then one could say there’s no excuse for their behavior.

@@MasterTobiification Stupid parents do occur in the real world .Out of all of the things in this movie to question, the existence of stupid people is not one of them.

Remember, he has no idea how this disease spreads so using pre-packaged and sealed sources of liquid (containing alcohol I might add) would be his best bet.
Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then.
It's crazy to think that Eli Roth got the idea for this film, from, his past experience,while working on a horse farm, in Iceland, getting a sort of parasite on his face , causing him so much discomfort, he started itching his face, which eventually caused layers of skin to come off his face.
As someone with ezcema, this movie terrified me more than anything else

Love your vids Roanoke, but I have to disagree on this being a virus. In the sequel, Cabin Fever 2, it is confirmed that the infected are suffering from necrotizing fasciitis, a bacterial infection. Eli Roth has even confirmed he got his inspiration for the movie from his own experience with necrotizing fasciitis. Due to the severity of the symptoms and myonecrosis depicted in both films, I would suggest mutant/weaponized Clostridium perfringens or Clostridium septicum bacteria as the source of the infection. I highly recommend checking out the sequel, I found that movie much more interesting that the original.
The third movie prequel seems to suggest it’s something different as they’re studying it in a lab as if it’s a novel strain. They also can’t identify it in this movie. Even if it’s a small hospital they should surely be able to identify bacteria, unless they’ve never seen them before.
The most dreaded thing about this movie is that it had remake for some reason, which uses the EXACT same script and is almost shot-by-shot remake. One of many world's mysteries.

Nope this movie and the fucking scooby doo harvest moon shit terrified me as a kid I can’t even remember who let me watch them, still a great film tho
I was 12 years old when I watched this movie and even now I still want to curl into a ball remembering that lipless girl with her teeth exposed. Thats why I do not go to KOA Cabins anymore. I admit I used to go camping at KOA Cabin/ RV Park Reserves but I stopped doing that back in 2007. I'm glad I did for I am not a outdoors person no. I'm better off staying at hotels.

I thought you would mention the following but fun fact: Eli a Roth (the director) was inspired to write and film this movie after he contracted a flesh eating virus on one of his vacations and decided to write about it.
It would be great to get a sequel video to this one that incorporates the second and third entries (ignore the remake). I'd like to see how you factor in any retcons and additions to the lore.

I do enjoy your take on these horrible diseases and the *Terrifying* stuff you discuss. Also while do the death scroll you're voice always picks up! I know it will always be simultaneously horrified AND entertained! Always find them a good use of time! I would agree with mars University motto from futurama "knowledge brings fear". After covid in my home country I spoke to one of the most qualified women who worked in n medicine (in my old job) and while discussing lock down protocol she remarked "we finally got people to WASH THEIR HANDS* she was such a cool person to deal with (retired nearly 20 yrs) and we need more like her you and all the peeps who think of the other, BEFORE themselves.

Also, I was just at my family’s cabin in the north woods, while we do have a pump that brings lake water up to our cabin for plumbing we don’t try to drink it too much because even though it’s a clean lake it still is a lake. We tend to use water bottles but when we go into the nearby city to visit a relative we bring some gallon jugs to get some extra water in case. The water from the city is so gross, it’s heavily HEAVILY chlorinated, not enough to make you sick but it’s still really horrible tasting. After watching this though... I’m glad the water I was drinking was so heavily cleaned and treated.
The only thing more scary than the virus in this movie was the overall intellect of the characters.
My brother got Steven's Johnsons syndrome in his mouth when we were young. He was in the hospital for almost a month.(yes he is fine)
The scene where they are "leaving school" and shout at that kid is actually downtown of my hometown. Did a double take the first time I saw it. Good video as always.
Using the Flood theme from the "Library" level of HALO: COMBAT EVOLVED for this video was a stroke of genius. It really conveys just how terrifying this infection can get.

I would like a Fallout video. Go over radiation, rad away, radioactive soda and the children of atom. Hell throw in chems too. Or make chems their own video.
i belive the children of atom simply have the GHOULISH mutation desribed as your still human ON THE OUTSIDE that the soul survivor can gain it makes them not only highly resistant to radiation but lets one HEAL from it and naturally reduces rad level over time basically making someone have all the benifits of the ghoul except possible immortality with no necrosis
@@wilmagregg3131 I think they'll still become Ghouls in the end.
@@DamianBloodkil i belive its more of a half way thing if your lucky you born with the ghoulish mutation which prevents you from becoming a ghoul while keeping many of its benifits but you lose the ghoul immortality however the fact its a mutation means it can be genetically passed on making it extremely usefull
You don't have to go to college. It's not for everyone. Also, I did have fun at times, but almost everyone was stressed af, working a ton and trying to go to class too. The partying stereotype is only half true, honestly. I feel like most college students are too stressed, busy, and poor to party all the time.
EDIT: also, the disease is based on necrotizing fasciitis, but that's actually a bacterial infection (a rare one at that) and not a virus. Most people's immune systems can fight it off. The real disease is also extremely painful. Also, this movie ruined my life because I'm a germaphobe and spent hours googling how to NOT get this lol.

Roanoke I have to say this movie is way more scary to me now because I almost died of Stevens-Johnson syndrome when I was 16. I had an allergic reaction to a drug I was prescribed I received a lace rash over my entire body. The doctors at the hospital said that their was nothing they could and told my parents to take me home because I am terrified of hospitals and they wanted to keep me calm and happy the doctors told my parents that it was a roll of the dice whether I would live since if I got Stevens-Johnson it would be all the skin on my body shedding off me like a snake and at that point all they could do was ease my death. Soooo... Yeah this movie is way more terrifying.

You do a great job here.
It was the general consensus of myself, and my professor, that the disease was more likely to be bacterial, or possibly some kind prion, as a viral contagion wouldn't have such a varied incubation period. From there, we decided it was likely a mutant strain of Staph, that had exchanged DNA with either some kind of E. Coli. or even a Strep bacteria.
Ok since I'm early i just wanted to tell you maybe cover the movie anilhilation because of its weirdness both psychologically and biologically confuse me like is it possible for a object to do that even if it's alien thx
That movie has way more to do with physics and metaphysics than any kind of infection or disease. Nothing that goes on in it has to do with any kind of virology.
@@RainbowRandolf at one point of the movie you can see them taking blood samples and examining it reveals that changes are happening on a cellular level which means that virology could also be in play no telling what kind weird bacteria the zone made given the fact that zone is basically a giant scrambler of everything
@@RainbowRandolf he does videos on things other than Virology
You left out the "Pancakes" scene where Dennis jumped off the porch, practiced karate and bit the infected Bert on the hand. That's what caused Dennis' father and friends to pursue Bert.
This movie has one of my favorite, most random jokes ever. With the convenience store clerk and his gun, and at the end revealing the joke. Other than the gore, this has stuck with me the most, I have no idea why.
The idea of those kids getting dirty af stream water for lemonade is the most disturbing part of this movie for me.
