      Critics Consensus

      More gory than scary, Cabin Fever is satisfied with paying homage to genre conventions rather than reinventing them.

      Teddy B Uneasily tight roping several genres whilst never really having any sort of tonal balance, 'Cabin Fever' does thrill slightly at times, but not all the time. The gore isn't even really as prevalent as I was hoping for, most likely due to the budget. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/23/24 Full Review Jelisije J Horror and comedy rarely work together and the tone of this film is very off, but it was still worth a watch. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/21/24 Full Review Ben D This movie had humour and some good cinematography, that's about it. But all you need to know about this movie is that it has disgusting gore that I actually don't like and I usually I like gore in horror movies. And this movie is extremely dumb so don't think it's going to be serious, I was fine with it for awhile but it just gets too dumb. Also a big trigger warning for animal deaths. Finally as dumb as the ending was it was pretty hilarious. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/02/24 Full Review Priyan B Writing could have been better, some corny scenes here and there climax is predictable and boring 6/10 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/08/24 Full Review Richard H Social commentary horror Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/19/24 Full Review [ tally ] at first it doesn't really seem like a horror film but then it gets good after a bit. kinda goofy but scary at the same time and it's the type of film you'd watch with your friends at a sleepover.

      J. R. Jones Chicago Reader A protege of David Lynch, Roth puts a sardonic spin on the puritanism of the 80s slasher... Aug 2, 2022 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 3/5 Dec 30, 2006 Full Review Jamie Russell BBC.com Definitely unforgettable, it's destined for cult classic status. Rated: 4/5 Oct 22, 2003 Full Review David Keyes Cinemaphile.org A divisive moment between opposing tones of horror movies, and a relentless symbol of the director's unfiltered panache for the macabre. Rated: 3/4 Oct 26, 2016 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...the somewhat anticlimactic finale ensures that Cabin Fever ends on a woefully forgettable note. Rated: 2/4 Oct 8, 2016 Full Review Steve Newton Georgia Straight If you take away the shocking makeup-effects work of KNB EFX Inc. there's not much there at all.
