Movie Review

Cabin Fever avoids the typical horror plot but not any of the other clichés, as it fails mightily to make a mark on the genre. However, as entertainment value goes, there have been worse. Full movie review »

was a good storyline, but. . . where did the virus come from? as a matter of fact, why would a bunch of college age people wander to a place their cell phones got no signal? its a loss of commen sense that has been fortunate enough of a place for a perfect horror movie, but it was too obviouse. a dumb sheriff, the mysteriouse dog murder at the beginning? where did that come from?

well, what a movie. Alot of this movie dissapointed me very badly. for one thing, theres too much sex. Theres no need for that much. Another thing, there is way too much language in this movie. I swear almost every sentence it seemed like had the "F" word in it atleast 3-4 times. There was quite abit of blood in this movie, which doesnt make it worse or better. I did on the other hand like the plot. On one of the reviews it said that all of the actors were bad. Well that right there is the beauty of it. The so terrible there almost exactly like real kids now days. They reacted just like normal people would, and i liked that about this movie. Bottom line is, If your wanting to enjoy a pretty good scary(though its not very scary at all)movie, without your parents around, then get this movie. But if your expecting some kind of mind-boggling, heart-stopping horror flick, then dont even look and the movie, cause this is not it. And one more thing, rent it first, dont go and buy it!

I watched this movie because I heard from some friends it was the stupid kind of movie I liked. The plot wasn't the greatest, and it wasn't the least bit scary, but it was really funny. It seemed to me that the writers were a bunch of high teenagers, and to me, that's a good thing. I especially liked the part towards the end when Dennis starts yelling Pancakes! for absolutely no reason. Then he jumps off the porch and does some really cool karate or something, but when he gets to the guy he bites his hand. GREAT MOVIE, HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!
