And can I just say I loved this seemingly random opening scene with Pancakes’ gore-ravaged cadaver red-misting his owner in the face!
#Cabin fever remake movie
So the sick sense of humor to this movie should come as an expected perk. Now that may sound pretty slapstick-nuts, but this is written by Randy Pearlstein ( Cabin Fever, Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever) who acted in Ugly Americans and Chapelle’s Show.

But true lovers of hilariously gory overkill should also hit Evil Dead(2013), The Cabin in the Woods(2012), Final Destination 5 (2011), Tucker and Dale vs Evil(2010), Drag Me to Hell(2009), and of course Evil Dead 2 (1987) and The Evil Dead (1981).ĭirector Travis Zariwny ( Scavengers, Intruder) had never made a feature length horror film before trying to fill some very big shoes by doing a remake of Eli Roth’s 2002 flesh-eating bacteria/virus movie that already has two sequels! But he seems to be off to one Hell of a great start when he opens with gorgeous shots of the forest and the corpse of a man’s dog-with the cutest name ever (and a throwback to the original): Pancakes-spraying blood into his owners face for no good reason other than making me “squee” with glee. MOVIES LIKE Cabin Fever: Cabin Fever (2002), Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever(2009), Cabin Fever: Patient Zero(2014) and The Ruins (2008). Basically you’re rewatching an old favorite with a different cast and director. MY CALL: A perfectly watchable remake that replays the 2002 screenplay and brings nothing new to the table.
