I am dumber for having watched this. Awful has a new standard. It's like a cafeteria of the worst possible facets that comprise a horror movie. Bad acting? Yes! The worst! A terrible plot! Check. A rifle with a magazine that contains endless ammo until it runs out and then magically has more ammo in the next scene? Yup. Backwoods idiotic stereotypes? Yes. I could go on but why bother. This move goes beyond suck.

If you've seen the original Cabin Fever from 2002 then there's really no reason to see this one because it's the same movie. Different actors but with just a few minor changes from the original it's literally shot for shot, line for line the same exact movie. There was no reason for this movie to be made. The original is no classic nor was there an audience clamoring for an updated version. It's only 14 years later. Had they changed the story in some way like the recent remake of the Evil Dead it might have at least been able to say that it was it's own story but no. This is exactly the same. Well actually not quite because compared to this one, the original is better and that's not something I'd ever thought I'd say about the 2002 version.The actors in this are bland and honestly don't act like normal people. In one scene one of the guys brings out an assault rifle, mirroring the BB gun scene in the original movie. But this time it goes off accidentally, almost hitting one of his friends. The reaction? An almost bored, "keep that thing away from me" instead of the adrenaline pumping scene that this would have been in reality.All in all, there is no reason to see this unless you just really need to see a bloodier version of the original.

To keep it short and simple, the story was too rushed, I thought things started going wrong way too early into the movie and of course the characters didn't do anything a logical person would do, also the trailer kind've spoiled the movie and I don't know it wasn't that good at all, I'm not gonna like the special affects and makeup wasn't that bad but the story was stupid and there were a lot of screw ups with scenes.

I am a fan of Eli Roth. I really did enjoy the original Cabin Fever even though it had some flaws (what movie doesn't), and his movies keep getting better. Why was this horrible re-make done? The plot is similar to the original, but the chemistry between the cast is not there. Actually it's painful to watch these people trying to behave like they are best friends!! I have seen also the 2nd and the 3rd movie and they were Oscar-winners compared to this mess.
