    Gory, scary, smart and funny, this is definitely one of the best horror films I’ve seen in years.

    While many films of this kind are undermined by amateurish performances, the main cast is solid and some of the supporting performances (many from non-professionals) are small gems.

    The movie adds up to a few good ideas and a lot of bad ones, wandering around in search of an organizing principle.

    I love this movie intensely, and no I'm not stupid. My taste ranges from classics to good mainstream movies to avant garde, and I appreciate this movie on many different levels. It's smart, hilarious, and even a bit scary. Eli roth is the only true genius of horror movies working today. Rent this movie for "bad movie night" with some friends and you'll be in for a pleasant surprise. Go ahead and buy the DVD to for the hilarious claymation shorts of "The Rotten Fruit" and Eli Roth's commentary track, which is one of the best I've heard. This movie isn't lame or boring or stupid, people just don't understand it.… Expand

    It was fun to see Rider Strong in a serious (well somewhat serious) role but I kept waiting for something scary to happen. If you take this not as a scary movie rather a infection/survival story you will probably be able to enjoy it a bit more. The human lack of compassion element is not even close to believable which really makes the films selling point hard to buy. One of Cabin Fevers saving graces however is one of the funniest ending in recent memory (and I don't mean unintentionally funny). I guess if you like special effects the blood usage in this movie is pretty good but I had a hard time with the movie as I was expecting something completely different than killer tap-water.… Expand

    The obviously stuffed dear going through the guys windshield was just about funniest thing I've ever seen in a movie. Lots of unintended laughs.
