The characters are a blast to hang out with, the dialogue is highly quotable and there are more memorable moments than can be found in the combined efforts of most horror films released in the recent past this latest sequel included. The thing I love so much about Cabin Fever, which keeps bringing me back, is that it’s just plain fun from start to finish. At the same time, a group of friends travel to the island for a bachelor party, and it’s not long before they become exposed to the very same virus. Though he was exposed, he appears to be immune to its evil, making him an unwitting lab rat test subject.
Written by Jake Wade Wall and directed by Kaare Andrews, the franchise’s third installment hit select VOD outlets (including Amazon) last month and embarks on a limited theatrical release this Friday, August 1 st.Ĭabin Fever 3’s subtitle refers to Sean Astin’s character, who is being held in a quarantine facility on a remote Caribbean island, after being exposed to the flesh-eating virus we’re all by now familiar with. Over a decade later, the franchise has just returned with the brand new sequel Patient Zero, following up 2009’s Ti West-directed hot mess known as Spring Fever. In fact, out of the over 1,000 horror movies I own in my DVD/Blu-ray collection, Roth’s debut is the one I most often pluck off the shelf and slide into my Playstation 3, as I just have a blast with it every single time I watch it. It was 12 years ago now that Eli Roth burst onto all of our radars with the throwback infection flick Cabin Fever, which instantly became a favorite of mine.
