Cabin Fever remake trailer might make you sick!

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Even though it has Eli Roth’s blessing (he’s an executive producer and has been enthusiastically touting the project), I still don’t quite understand the point of Travis Zariwny’s CABIN FEVER remake. After seeing the first trailer, I understand it even less. It looks just like CABIN FEVER but with new actors. That’s the point, I guess? A press release received yesterday offered that it contains “all new characters and all new kills,” for whatever that’s worth, and it does appear to be just as grotesque as its predecessor.

This story is familiar: fresh out of college, a group of five friends retreat to a remote cabin in the woods for one last week of partying- only to become snacks for a gruesome, flesh-eating virus. What’s surprising are the ingenious new deaths, which offer a fresh spin on a horror-comedy milestone.

IFC Midnight will release CABIN FEVER in theaters in NY and LA on February 12th. It stars Gage Golightly, Dustin Ingram, Nadine Crocker, Matthew Daddario & Samuel Davis.
