On this episode, we take on writer-director Eli Roth's CABIN FEVER with
Bert (James DeBello), a college student vacationing with friends in the mountains, mistakenly shoots a local man (Arie Verveen) with a skin infection while hunting in the woods. Panicking, he abandons the scene and leaves the man for dead. When the man stumbles into a reservoir, he infects the water supply, and soon one of Bert's friends becomes infected. The friends struggle to stop the contagious, flesh-eating disease while on the run from a group of ornery backwoods locals out for revenge.

Rated R for strong violence and gore, sexuality, language, and brief drug use, the film sports a 62% approval rating over on Rotten Tomatoes with a Critics Consensus that reads: More gory than scary, Cabin Fever is satisfied with paying homage to genre conventions rather than reinventing them.
CABIN FEVER is directed by Eli Roth (HOSTEL, DEATH WISH) from a screenplay he co-wrote along with Randy Pearlstein. Roth also produced along with Lauren Moews, Sam Froelich, and Evan Astrowsky. It stars Rider Strong, Jordan Ladd, James DeBello, Cerina Vincent, Joey Kern, Arie Verveen, and Giuseppe Andrews. Lionsgate Films unleashed it back on September 12, 2003.
