They accidentally kill the man and inadvertently damage their only vehicle. This happens after coming into contact with a man who had previously contracted the virus. They are exposed to a flesh eating virus from a hidden source. If you’ve seen the original then there really isn’t any purpose for this film to exist, it’s almost an exact shot for shot remake which as we all know is the worst type of remake there is.Ī group of college students head out to a secluded cabin in the woods for a weekend of partying. Its 2016 so that can mean only one thing for Cabin Fever, a pointless remake! Two years after its release we had movies like SAW and others which were making a killing at the box office. I don’t think it’s unfair to say that it had a hand in bringing the “splatter film” to mainstream audiences. Whether you’re a fan of that movie or not there is no denying that it had a couple of memorable moments.
