Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

The film industry must be in real crisis if average films are being remade after little more then a decade. The original was an OK film, I wouldn't have said it was a classic, and this remake seems so unnecessary, it doesn't differentiate from the original in any way, it doesn't bring anything new or different, it's basically remade word for word. The gore scenes are somewhat improved, a little more dramatic, and the dog scene is more dramatic.I have so very little to say here, as I didn't enjoy it all that much, it seems only a few years ago that I went to the Cinema to watch the original, I find it more disappointing that new ideas simply aren't there, there surely has to be a vast undiscovered writing talent out there.mehh, 3/10

Upon first viewing the Cabin Fever remake, I legitimately thought that I was playing Eli Roth's original when clicking play on Netflix. It's been so many years from first viewing the original that it took nearly 30 minutes for me to realize that the film I was watching was a recycled, useless remake. Who in the world would pretty much follows Roth's script to a tee when the story wasn't even groundbreaking to begin with? These are the type of projects that lack vision, emit no feeling or fright, and they waste a bunch of space for potential original horror content in this great genre.
Unlike the original that had some scenes that were extremely whacky, this version didn't take a shot at one ballsy scene. The film felt like a total hack recreation but some super fans. Aside from hating the movie, there are a few positive aspects of the film being Gage Golightly and Nadine Crocker. Without those actresses' stunning screen presence and quality performances this would have been a total catastrophe to watch. I never felt so stupid watching a movie A.) not knowing the film was the remake and B.) the storyline rotted my brain.

I'm highly disappointed this is the exact same plot as the original!!! Lame... if you are going to remake the movie give us something new!! Bad bad bad!!! Get some new material!!

I don't mind "typical" horror movies that are unoriginal and stick to a over used formula, but the acting and dialogue has to be decent or better. This movie seems to be more focused on referencing weed, sex, alcohol and video games than offering us even decent acting and dialogue. " I did that to, and I got drunk" awkward silence. I love bad horror movies bit this was just cringe. Not sure what's worse the script or the acting performances. It's only merits are the the cinematography looks good, it does a good job looking like a hollyHoll movie, but a 13 year olds weekend project underneath
