  • Imagine you’re a teenager out in the middle of nowhere, and you find you have an itch on your face that you just can’t scratch. The more you scratch it, the more it itches. And when you look down at the hand that had done the itching, there are chunks of flesh on it... What do you do next? Well, it really happened to a young Eli Roth when he worked on a horse farm in Iceland when he was 19 years old. Eli survived the ordeal; we also can’t help but be kind of glad it happened to him. After all, we wouldn’t have “Cabin Fever” otherwise. Is that messed up for us? If so, that’s fitting because this is one messed up flick, and so stay away from the shaving kit for just a little while, and lets find out WTF Happened to “Cabin Fever.”

    SERIES SYNOPSIS: Hollywood has had its fair share of historically troubled productions. Whether it was casting changes, actor deaths, fired directors, in-production rewrites, constant delays, budget cuts or studio edits, these films had every intention to be a blockbuster but were beset with unforeseen disasters. Sometimes huge hits, sometimes box office bombs. Either way, we have to ask: WTF Happened To This Horror Movie?

    Cabin fever is probably one of the best “cabin in the woods “ movies right up there with evil dead and Cabin in the Woods and I didn’t realize it was such a low budget film . Makes sense those with a passionate cast and crew usually become greater than the sum of its components. I still don’t understand the recent remake the original is pretty much perfect and not that old really . Of course it’s old but not like Halloween old .

    This is the only damn movie that managed to scare me as a kid. I was too afraid to sleep in the dark or alone.
    It was the combination of the 100% possible scenario, the fall atmosphere, and the fantastic soundtrack, especially those droning cellos. I still get chills when even thinking about that at age 30.

    This movie came out when I was a kid and I grew up on horror but both my brother and me and couldn’t finish it at the time. I was terrified. I’d love a spin off of this idea. To this day I love it and it really taps into the Friday the 13th and tropes of slasher movies. Iconic and can’t wait for more from Eli. Thanksgiving was amazing 🤩

      Well, in that case, you definitely shouldn't watc the sequel, "Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever." Though, you actually should, because it's great. 😁
      It was directed by Ti West, who directed "The House of the Devil," "Pearl" and "X." It's super underrated. I like it as much as "Cabin Fever."

    *IRL it's different. Less bleeding because the areas of flesh that come off are already dead. It's also not very contagious from person-to-person and it's a bacterial infection, not a virus.

    The shaving scene to this day makes me feel extra queasy. I loved this movie and the practical effects so much. Sadly, it's always disheartening to hear as a horror fan and a woman these women dont want to do these sex scenes. I can understand why they're uncomfortable with them and wish they didnt have to have them in general in the movies. The effects still remind me heavily of evil dead and i hope more horror movies int he feature can focus more on gore and practical effects.
    It's crazy to think Lionsgate took this and it came out just a year before SAW 1.

    It took some serious talent to make every movie related to this one go off a cliff. Part 2 was awful and I'm still not trying the third. Remake was equally bad and was even more awkward than anything. Speaking of, what the hell was wrong with that kid loafing around on the bench at the general store.... in both this and remake?
    I've known autistic kids for decades and that's not their kind of behavior to exhibit. I'm under the impression the direction for both kids was "I dunno, just sit there and bite the guy's hand or something... and do karate". Other than that, it's great to hear of such grand success after such a rocky start.

    This JoBlo narrator's voice is like nails on a chalkboard.

    Ely Roth really pisses me off, the man has talent, there's no doubt about that, he has imagination by the bucket load but his films always have some of the worst dialogue or the most WTF? scenes in them that can really ruin his movies. I mean 'Pancakes' WTF?? It's so weird and out of place and serves zero purpose in the film, it's just odd and that cop who literally moans party all the time, what cop in the world talks and acts like that? lol Weird for the sake of it.

      @@chasejackson7248Not at all, one of my favourite films ever is The elephant man, comparing David Lynch to Ely Roth is something I never thought I would ever see in my lifetime 🤣
