{ cabin fever dvd }

didn't see it when it came out, thought that it might be worth checking out at the $1.00 theatre, but never got around to it... such a MISTAKE... cabin fever was released on dvd a week or so ago, and this movie truly exceeded my expectations throughout... the concept is not uncommon- a group of kids rent a cabin in the woods for a camping trip... they find themselves surrounded by backwoods weirdos, but soon find that these people are the least of their problems... a highly contagious flesh eating virus is going around and they must first work together, and as the film progresses, against each other to survive-really, this film was a flawless display of what a great horror movie should be... it's gross, it's cheesy (but meant to be), and it's absolutely hilarious... when the movie ended, the fun didn't stop... there was about another hour of really great extras on the dvd... 3 episodes of something called the rotten fruit, short stop motion projects about a band of fruit with bad attitudes... then, there's a really great feauturette/documentary/making of type thing... and even after all that's over, there are a few more little gems to top it all off and have you roaring in laughter once again...

I love how it's so obviously made knowing that it is just a camp horror flick. No false hopes, no fake seriousness, no bullshit. The deer scene is a riot!

This movie may suck, it may be the shittiest cheesiest pile of monkey fuck you've ever seen, but there is an extra on the special features section called "Pancakes" that makes the rental (or even purchase) worthwhile. Find it. Watch it. Laugh until you bleed.
