Cabin Fever was better than I expected but there were some things that weren't that good. For the most part the movie was a well made horror film that tells the story of five college friends on vacation at a remote mountain cabin when one of them contacts a flesh-eating virus.

Cabin Fever is such a foul film that putting its images into words is at best, painful and repulsive, and at worst, impossible. Characters infected with the flesh-eating virus vomit copious amounts of blood and develop grisly lesions all over their bodies.
Roth's mix of grotesque horror, bizarre humor, and sexual tension does work to give the film some of its own unique identity amongst other modern-day horror flicks, though the director's bits of ingenuity are not refined enough to pull the film out of mediocrity.
