It's a good movie, 2009-01-01
The first time i saw this movie was on sci-fi. It was good. Not great, not my favorite, but good. This is a movie i would bring to a friends slumber party. It didn't make me laugh, it didn't make me scream but on some occasions it made me look away. There is a good share of gore that i think the movie needed at times. The kid that bit the guys hand was a little odd and i don't think the movie needed it but it's not like they can go back a change it. i personally didn't like the ending but i heard they were coming out with a 2nd one and Rider Strong br /[...]is going to be in that one too. br /i don't think that the movie needed a second one but neither did a nightmare on elm street(and they made 6!) br /anyways, it's a good movie and i would recommend renting it for a long weekend.

Eli Roth is a hack, 2008-12-29
Clever spoof? Scary Movie was a clever spoof. This piece of garbage is poorly scripted, poorly acted, etc....etc..... After seeing it I wanted to open my skull and scoop out any memory of it. Do yourself a favor, if you are thinking about buying this mess please DON'T reproduce. The world has enough stupid people. And by the way Amazon, how about adding a negative stars option to the rating system. It felt dirty having to give this crap even one star.

Awesome for the people who love dark comedy, 2008-10-30
ONLY buy this movie if you like to laugh... The whole thing is meant to be funny/ironic, like a satire. There is lovely gore and quite a few sex scenes, but that's Eli Roth for you. I personally LOVE this movie, but all my friends think it's very very strange. br /My point is, you might as well buy this movie--USED-- because if you're looking at it, you really might like it. It's not scary, it is not a horror, it's simply discusting and wonderful. There really is nothing else like it.

You'll Laugh Your Face Off, 2008-10-29
If you expect a serious horror film then you'll be badly disappointed with Cabin. If, on the other hand, you don't mind a clever spoof of the genre then you'll find a well executed example here. br / br /The cliches in Cabin are simply too numerous and too obvious for me to conclude that the writers really meant this film to be taken seriously. You have the country-folk that don't trust strangers, the nice guy and the nice girl he likes, the frat boy oaf, the token black guy, not to mention the self-centered jerk and his hot girlfriend. There's even a scene where the hot girl says to the nice guy (something to the tune of), 'Let's have sex because that's what people always do in these moments'. br / br /A score of such scenes litter the gratuitous gore-fest that is Cabin Fever. As a horror film it falls utterly flat - it builds no tension at all because you know pretty much what's going to happen before it occurs. In fact, part of the fun of the movie is watching the characters blunder from one obviously stupid decision to the next. You'll be yelling at the screen: 'Don't lean over that, there's an infected body in there and that ladder looks unstable...oh, now there you go, now you're in the water. You stupid guy.' br / br /This movie is utterly enjoyable as a comedy-horror mash up, you just have to know what you're walking into. DVD has making-of and commentary, plus a "family friendly version" (I kid you not) of the film. br / br / br /
