Cabin Fever

What makes Cabin Fever so scary is how plausible and probable it is. Basically a bunch of college kids go to a remote cabin to party and Deliverance ensues in the form of a flesh eating disease. Throw in some paranoia and short term solutions, and a kid named Dennis, well, mister, you got a whole peck of trouble. Say, you want to rent a cabin in the woods?

Unlike cheap teen-titty ripoffs like Wrong Turn or anything Part III, Cabin Fever is a genre movie grounded in reality. The movie is the rural companion to 28 Days Later. But with a soundtrack by Angelo Badalamenti, so Twin Peaks is just over there.

Plus, the funniest harmonica joke, ever.
