    This is the worst horror movie I have ever seen. I loved the first movie, I love horror movies, but this was appalling. It looked as though it was made by a 15 year old in 1985. It looked like a bad episode of Degrassi High. Whoever was involved with this movie should be ashamed of themselves. Roth (first movie director) should be ashamed of selling the brand to be used in this movie. It was an abomination. I cannot imagine a movie this movie being even made. Aren’t there checks and balances to stop this from happening. It makes Battlefield Earth and Prom Night (remake) look like masterpieces. Absolutely, unforgivably, unbelievably appalling. 0/10.

    It wasn’t brilliant, but as far as I’m concerned it was a huge improvement over the first one. A great big mess of bloody fun. I especially liked the animated opening credit sequence. However, the producer-interference was pretty obvious, and the ending was god-awful. I can see why West is so upset… but I don’t think he has anything to really be ashamed of. ‘Cabin Fever 2′ was just mediocre fun.

    Eli Roth’s Cabin Fever has left a serious impact in terms of the resurgence of the modern horror film. His quirky, sometimes funny, often gory and totally oddball film has gain a lot of popularity as the years go by. Having said that, it has been nearly 7 years since that film was released and the sequel being made has been done by the talented Ti West (House of the Devil).

    Cabin Fever 2 begins where the last movie ended, with Rider Strong’s character, clearly dying for his exposure to the virus, moving from the water, onto the highway, where he is promptly hit by a school bus for of kids. From there, we would yet again be exposed to the odd character known as Deputy Winston. The inclusion of his character serves as yet another way to help tie this story in to the previous movie. While he does provide some comic relief, by the end of the film I could not think of a single thing he actually did to add to the story.

    Much like the last entry, Cabin Fever 2 features a host of cliched characters, the nice guy who is in love with his best female friend(who is dating an ass hole), the crude, sex obsessed best friend who does his best impersonation of Jonah Hill in Superbad. The rest are your typical high school kids, from the principal to the selfish prom queen, to the jerk who agrees to sleep with a morbidly obese girl on a bet, Cabin Fever 2 makes good use of your high school archetypes.

    Fortunately, as the events proceed, the body count and blood begin to flow freely, although perhaps too freely at times. There did seem to be some occasions where the projectile blood vomiting ceased to be interesting and became more of a distraction as to what was actually happening. The gore itself, however got really gross in certain parts. In fact, there is one scene in particular that made me nauseous and I have a strong stomach. Let’s just say gore and the penis should always be mutually exclusive and not shown in the same scene.

    Overall, despite some strangely convenient plot twists or plot holes, Cabin Fever 2 was a fun movie. It was certainly far different in tone and presentation than Eli Roth’s film, which I think is a good thing. In fact, this film could have been completely unrelated and likely stood on its own for a gory horror flick. Ultimately this is one of those “your mileage may vary” situations. While I found it entertaining, it wasn’t as engaging and enjoyable as Roth’s movie was.

    For the most part Cabin Fever 2 is a fun little movie. Likable characters, lots of disgusting gore and some big laughs (Thanks to Deputy Winston).

    But it goes downhill once the producer’s reshot ending pops up. Unfunny and lame.

    Would love to see Ti West’s original cut.

    This movie was more of a fan boy flick to the raunchey comedies of the seventies and eighties only with flesh eating disease and brutal acts of self mutalation. The movie had everything it needed to be a decent fallow up to Eli Roth’s Cabin Fever but it didnt know when to end. The film had horny teenagers at a school p…rom were the punch and water supply is tainted with a bizzare toxin that causes the human body to deteriorate. Add government agents quarentining the school and eraticating everyone they can. Then you have a psycho jock running around in a jealous rage killing people becouse he cant handle that his girl freind left him. He is Chris Benoit and Luke from the OC all in one. Sounds like a wicked fallow up or spin off right. Well it would have been. If the movie new when to end. The film carries on for ten minutes of what I call filler footage the ruins the movie. Becouse the scenes are both unnessessary and pointless. They have little to no connection to the grand sceam of things
    This is really a three story movie it shows what happens to Paul the protagonist from the first film for the first five minutes. Then it turns into a raunchy sex comedy for young adults were young people are going to the prom from hell. Hits hits the ballroom blitz. Vomit, blood, bullets and missing limbs. Then it shows a stripper with cold sours … See Moreand a bizare virus stripping for cash. Whats her tie to this nothing except she performed fellatio on some guy she hardly new in a high school bathroom and teased him that she might go to prom with him. Then he got stood up. What a free spirit. Other then that the movie was awesome for a straight to video sequil.
    it could have been a 8 if it had known when to call it quits but i have to give it a 6.5/10. I guess the director Ti West wanted to disone this movie becouse he felt that the finished product was more the studios film then his. He wanted to put the film credit under a fake alias Allan Smithee. Its like American Pie presents Cabin Fever. A film with a70′ or 80′s vibe that takes place in modern times.

    There was absolutely no reason to make this movie,other than to scare up some dvd sales so the assholes who wrote and directed this garbage could catch up on their bills . Wow, its films like this that give the horror genre a bad name. I just hope to God that this is where the buck stops. Don’t waste your time or money with this.

    Very entertaining sequel that surprisingly surpasses Part 1. Much funnier and especially much, MUCH gorier. Damn, this was really one hell of a disgusting gorefest! I also liked all the references to the 80s and several 80s movies. The ending was a bit disappointing and there were some needlessly cheesy moments in it, but overall I really enjoyed it.

    I could see why TI disowned this flick, seemed like lionsgate dick him over, big time. This could of been of cool flick. It started off really good but the last 10 mins sucked. WHo the fuck were those dudes in yellow who ran into the road at the end???

    And I hate the whole cartoon set up, what the fuck are we europtrip.

    The gore was mehh. I was more disturbed by the horrible body fluids, I nearly through up after the black dude pissed in the fruit punch then they show the naked fat girl WHY… Oh man. but I have to admit the whole rider strong part was funny in the start. BUT IDK I was epxecting a lot more. I hope the third one will be A LOT better. Sure won’t be burning this one ON DVD matter of fact I will erase this from my mind.

    This was a great movie, I liked this more than the first. The gore and story was disapointing compared to the first, but it was really funny. It had the same effect Wrong Turn 2 had on me. It was a fun and gory movie. The end kinda dragged but I am still going to buy this if/when it comes out on Blu-Ray.

    Overall, the film was fun, bloody, and utterly disgusting comical romp and satire. Naturally while Eli Roth’s Cabin Fever still stands superior, this direct follow up went into it’s own very interesting and hilarious direction in this satire on rampant teenage sexuality. I know as well as others how director Ti West disowned the film after it was apparently very much changed by producing execs. Overall, I could sort of feel that this film had been altered somehow…missing something… even so, the resulting product was quite fun and hilarious! I really wish to watch Ti West’s true vision and director’s cut of the original material, but I know that is probably unlikely. Still, this movie is great as direct to video sequels go! There’s actually humor and continuity! Fun stuff!

    This rancid piece of dog meat fell in my mailbox through some random trick of fate. With a running time of one hour and roughly twenty minutes, director Ty West manages to drag the film through a meandering pace that makes the viewer feel more like he just went through some sick four hour epic and never seems to actually take you anywhere. The opening moments of the film give us a taste of things to come as the disease ridden survivor of the last films’ infectious flesh eating virus manages to drag himself up out of the river creek, wander through the woods with his flesh getting raked off his body and blood splattering everywhere and this goes on for several long moments with the kid gasping for breath as he stumbles and trips his way to the main road where he’s unceremoniously plowed down by a high school bus. This sounds so unbelievably cool, but the staggering, running, tripping, and ripping gets so unbelievably tiresome that we simply stop caring by the time he hits the road that we’ve already become desensitized to anything that could happen and the rest of the film plays out in the same way. Considering that this same character was pretty much dead by the end of the first film anyway further illustrates the utter pointlessness of having him pop up again, but this whole movie is a series of pointless blundering and incoherently terrible decision making.

    The rough plot has the infectious water get delivered to the local High School on the night of the prom while our erstwhile deputy from the first film kind of plays out his own sub-plot on the sidelines. The film would have been better of if they had developed an entire story around the deputy’s investigation and irresponsible antics, but they seemed more like a tag on in order to establish familiarity with the original film than anything else. We’re kind of expected to start caring about the stereotypical teenage crowd, but there isn’t a single truly likeable character in the bunch as they all come off as whining little brats who make a fairly big show out of drinking the water and then sharing deep soul kisses as a matter of setting up for the big bloody vomit finish that isn’t so much foreshadowed as it is dragged in front of your eyes with a big “ain’t I the coolest???” sign propped up next to it. Ty West manages to wring out any sense of shock or horror that comes with the fantastic visual effects through pointless dialogue, pointless wandering, and a staggering ability to stack scenes that never have any real pay off or contribute in any way to the story as a whole. Even as the story winds down to a climax, we’re treated to an additional ten minutes or so of sophomoric bathroom humor as a dangling plot thread is wrapped up in yet another meandering and ultimately pointless close to a film.

    Cabin Fever 2 manages to unseat the gadawful wretchedness that was House of the Dead with this crap fest of a film, proving that there’s always some way to scrape beneath the bottom of the barrel to discover brand new levels of suck and awfulness if you just try hard enough.

    2 out of 5, because the special effects were amazing and I’d feel guilty for not pointing out this one small thing that was actually done right even if the direction, story, and build up around each gag were miserable failures of epic suckage.

    Beware of sequels with a subtitle! Well, most of the time anyway. I was expecting this to be terrible but tried to keep an open mind. Really though, it is neither bad or good. Just very average. The kind of movie you turn off and instantly forget. A fail, but not an epic fail.

    I loved the original CABIN FEVER and want to attempt to have Noah Segan’s babies, but CABIN FEVER 2 was awful. The dialogue was terrible, characters were thinner than the watered-down, virused-up punch that infects them, and the plot was non-existent; characters simply moved from one grisly set piece to another, solely to showcase the (poor) gore effects, which didn’t even have the decency to be anything more than obvious blood bags/squibs. Noah’s character and was the single redeeming feature of the film, but not even he could save it- plus the character’s fate makes no sense given that (spoiler) he never drinks the infected water or touches anyone who is infected at any time- so how does he get infected? Truly awful film- not quite as bad as WRONG TURN III, but certainly in the ballpark…

    Wow. I had low expectations of this movie and I still think it sucked, bad, horribly bad. I could have made a better sequel in my nonexisting garage. I love the original, of course, but without Eli, this was soooo lame. I hate the characters and wanted them 2 die as fast as possible and not in a good fun way. The whole “flesh eating” was so tame and lame compaired to the original. The best part of the original for me was the flesh slipping off the body and the shaving scene that still gives me chills! This new “infection” bored me beyond the penis scene which made me laugh so hard- sorry guys but that was funny! The characters lacked depth and the casting was off to me. No one seemed to physically fit the characters they played. Watching Noah Segan, “John”, I couldn’t stop thinking about his character in Deadgirl! He did a great job in that film, but in this one he just didn’t work. Same as the female lead who was so tall and akward she looked like Carrie. Plus she dwarfed Segan and was unbelieveable as the “most popular hot chick in school”. And why the hell did the popular blond guy f**k the fat chick?? That just seemed so odd and silly… Too bad I got this movie from Netflix ‘cuz I would have demanded my money back. Skip it and watch Deadgirl instead.

    Not really that good, but did have its moments. Don’t know the whole story behind Ti West disowning the film, but did think the strip bar sequence at the end was crappy. For one the whole dialouge and the people saying it was horrible, and second, why did everyone else in the film just die suddenly why the chick who gave the dude a blow job was still okay to a point. Crap like that like that bothers me when these films are made. Someone should pay better attention to small things like that. Some horror movies would be better if they did.

    I have not seen the original Cabin Fever (2002) since its initial release, and I honestly do not remember a great deal, but I do recall being largely unimpressed with the film. Despite the hype, which I am usually adept at disregarding, I recall hating the characters and finding the attempts at humor as falling flat. However, upon seeing trailers for the film’s sequel, Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever, my interest was peeked as it appeared to take the franchise in a new direction. Then came the realization that the film’s director, Ti West, had disowned the project and that it had been shelved for several years. All of these factors conspired to make my expectations very low for this film.

    The movie opens with the first film’s star, Rider Strong, shambling through the forest wrought with disease before being splattered like a water-balloon onto the front of a school bus. Following some humorous exposition between Deputy Winston, played again by Giuseppe Andrews, and the bus driver (try to forget that his moose explanation doesn’t make sense in a film located in the American South), the opening credits roll with an animated sequence, coupled with quirky music. It explains how the contaminated water travels from the reservoir to bottled water in the local high school – the setting for the majority of the film. Already I could see that this was a film of a different strain, and I ended up having a great amount of fun watching this splatter comedy.

    While the first film unsuccessfully, in my opinion, tried to tread the line between horror and comedy, this movie does away with the serious right from the beginning. Instead of a rehashed remake to which most sequels succumb we get a film that tries to stand on its own and be something altogether different from its predecessor. Truly, there are only thin plot-lines that attempt to connect the two movies, and these are even unnecessary as, with a few script tweaks, this movie could have completely divorced itself from the former. Indeed, there is not even a cabin in this film.

    To be sure, there are some obvious flaws, including some uneven editing and a side-story involving Deputy Winston which does not quite mesh with the main plot. Additionally, there is a tacked-on ending that was not filmed by Ti West, and it shows, as it does little except unnecessarily extend the film about another 10 minutes.

    Nevertheless, blemishes and all, Cabin Fever 2 is a worthwhile ride. It provides outlandish gross out effects, gore galore, and some genuinely entertaining dialogue. While no actor completely stands out in their role, all capably portray – get this – likable characters that you may even care about. The gore, as mentioned before, is over-the-top, but in a good way. The filmmakers do not even hide the fact that the projectile vomiting is spewing from a hose beside the actor’s mouth. They are not trying to fool us, merely entertain, and this is all part of the film’s humor. Some sets eventually become completely and impossibly awash in blood, and this is not even in the film’s climax.

    Just as Cabin Fever was a thinly veiled homage to Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead trilogy, so is this film a tribute to 1980s bloodbath horror and even the teen films of John Hughes – with a little Superbad (2007) thrown in to bring us up to date. The plot revolves around a love triangle involving the unrequited affections of a school nerd towards a beautiful classmate, who is of course dating the volatile school douche-bag. (Noah Segan’s bitter, emotional speech to the object of his affections is actually a satisfying highlight in the film). Other nods can be found, particularly in the prom sequence which looks at times to be right out of 1980. And what teen movie would be complete without a soundtrack? This movie offers that in spades, giving us music old and new that establishes the tone of the film perfectly.

    Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever is not a great film, or even a very good film, however, it succeeds in being a very fun horror film that will keep you either laughing or gagging, depending on your resilience.

    Why please answer me this why do a sequel to an ok B-Movie horror film from 2002 this movie is just a waste of time and in no way any shape or form orginal. I Was really not surprised by after i saw this the outcome becuase i was actully expecting this to be bad but i saw the first so i thought mine as well follow up and watch this direct to dvd sequel. If Eli Roth came back and directed it , it may have been somewhat good enough for me to mild reccomend but i did like the first one somewhat not alot but i would give a mild reccomendation thts the first one this movie on the other hand is terrible waste of time waste of money.

    This movie i guess picks up where the 1st left off but i dont think it really did anyway the guy tht survived from the last i dont remeber his name awakens in a river of contaminated water well that water or tht lake runs into a water company and that disease infested water is now being disturbuted to the town folk which is BAD!! .. i suppose but for the most i dident care this movie bored this is probably one of the worst films of the year now yes i know its early but thats how bad this movie really is.

    There probably has been 1 direct to dvd sequel that i have liked midely and that was Boogeyman 2 and maybe that might have been becuase i liked the first one. This movies never really go anywhere they get direct to dvd because they suck so bad they cant go to theaters now in some movies that may not be the case but in this movies case it terrible film waste of money and you really dont know any actors from this movie so Skip Skip IT! and maybe when it comes on Syfy which wont be long maybe check it ou just to laugh at it.

    And the only reason i gave it 1 star is because i will credit this movie with one thing it did make me gag once or twice at how disgusting some of ths stuff got to where it did.

    So first off lemme start by saying im a die hard fan of the first film. Cabin fever 2 :spring fever unfortunately isn’t all up to par with the first.So first lets get out of the way most of the dialogue is terrible.With that said the story revolves around a group of high schoolers who are getting ready to go to stereotypical horror flick prom. Unknown to them the deadly virus from the first film has managed to spread.Now they have to fight for there lives to make it out of the prom alive while also evading and unknown containment team whos come to clean up the mess.First of the this film is big on camp. And it does deliver some laughs like the first did although almost any amusing part in this film is over the top disgusting. But still if your like me i laugh at the disgusting so that for me was a plus.The whole first half of the movie with back story of your new characters is just boring.But then the movie kicks into a different mode once the actual prom happens.To be honest this is a bad movie.but for me its the best kind of bad movie you can watch lots of gross outs , semi attractive women, Funny dialogue (or dialogue you can make fun of) here and there threw out the film.To be honest i don’t expect most to like this film (or see it).But if your a fan of the first or just a fan of crappy horror it will be with a look into at least once (and probably on once)

    Much more low-budget and campy than the first, but still a blast. While its mostly gore-comedy fun , some scenes are actually quite disturbing and not for the squemish. The highlight of the movie for me was the return of deputy winston from the first film, every scene that hes in is hilarious, and i bursted out laughing when he told the bus driver he just hit a moose, leaving a mangled pile of guts and blood on the road.

    This movie is not for everyone and some may even find it repulsive….but if you like gore comedies theres a good chance you ll enjoy this one.

    So they totally ruined the awesome inovative story that cabin fever posessed. I absolutely loved the first film, Eli Roth has to be one of the most influential, craziest horror directors in the modern era. But back to this piece of crap. I hated that all of a sudden the flesh eating virus that took its time tormenting you all of a sudden became a quick acting, blood vomiting, mess. The characters were cheesy and it was hard to relate/ give a shit about them. The movie seemed to move almost too fast so all connections with the characters were lost due to this. However i will say there was alot of blood in this film which is always a good thing. But most definetly BRING BACK ELI! and stop making stupid and unnecessary sequals unless you intend to do them justice.

    this is one of the MANY second parts that should have never been made.took Eli’s very original idea and turned it into crap and with the ending pointing that there could potentially be as many as 3 more I want to infect myself with the virus just to escape the thought.I give this movie a negative 10,absolute crap.

    the first movie original?? where?
    every scene of the original was copying evildead
    ripoffs from the last decade.
    CF2 was well-made-funny and had a retro 80s style in camera work. even the melted-face makeup in the beginning was better looking then all the gore in the original movie.
    how do you follow up a movie like that,with such a bad ending. the worst thing about horror sequels nowdays is that they all change and remove the original actors. at least the psyko cop is back.making the beginning of the movie perfect. fuckn hate when they change key actors in sequels!
    i never liked cabin fever. i dont like this either.but it is much better then the original.
    the house of the devil was also well-made and evil in the right cinematical scense.that is how you make movies.they should drag you in,not into a cgi computer bullshit fake making movie world.
    ti west rules just for making his visual retro horror. if someone is original this is the man.

    Not nearly as bad as people are saying. Was it perfect? no, was it the best movie ever? no, was it good enough to at least sit through it once? YES! Give it a chance, some of you might just like it!

    I’ve underestimated Cabin Fever 2. I never really wanted to see it cause I thought it was gonna be cheap and not really enjoyable. I was completely wrong. This movie is highly enjoyable. It has bad acting, lots of boobs (accept for one part), crazy gore, good laughs, and just plain goofy fun. All In All, Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever is actually a fun movie.

    A serviceable, moderately entertaining sequel. While it lacks the quality and scares of the original; its has energy, plenty of gross out moments and gore galore. Worth a rent or place on the ol’ que but don’t expect to much out of it.

    A stinker from start to finish. The characters are all extremely annoying and unlikable, and the dialogue is terrible (even though it tries so hard to be funny). The horror and gore (mostly vomiting and pus boils) even comes off as junk because everything else in the movie is so bad. The only shot that was ok was the teen bashing another teen’s face to a pulp–the rest was just not interesting at all.

    Certainly not as good as the first film, but still a lot of fun to watch. The gore is great, despite the iffy storyline. See it if you enjoyed the first one, a lot of fun to watch.

    There are some good bloody scenes in this movie that is about it really, it no were near as good as the first Cabin fever movie.

    I did not care for any of the characters in this movie they were all really annoying and (I thought my teacher was really bad , when i was in school) but teachers in this are evil. The acting from the cast was really poor.

    I waited so long to see this movie but it was NOT worth the the really long wait.

    if you liked first give it a watch but if don’t you are not missing out on anything.

    “Cabin Fever 2″ was directed by Ti West. Or was it?

    Ti West doesn’t seem to want involvement in the final product because he claims that the studio controlled too much of what it became. And it shows; “Cabin Fever 2″ essentially blows. Yes, it’s not without some good moments, and it looks pretty good cinematography-wise. But you can only have so much prettiness on a blood-soaked dance-floor. It’s just too easy to slip.

    Instead of taking place in a cabin, “Cabin Fever 2″ takes place in a school. Oh, yes; that’s a decent new change of location. The kids drink a lot of water from water bottles, which come from a company that bottles the same water that has been infected by the blood of our previous unhappy campers. This means that everyone’s bound to get infected, and that will take up more of our time than we care to waste.

    Good news: if you liked “Cabin Fever”, the sequel isn’t quite unwatchable. But it’s distusting and aims to sicken; which it kind of does. I’ve never barfed in a film, and I’m not going to start here. But fair warning; if “Cabin Fever” had you holding on to your barf-bag, then you may want to bring another one for this sit-down. I could handle it though; but I still hated most of what this film had to offer. On the bright side, the guy in the bunny suit is ALMOST unmasked. But alas, he is not, and that made me incredibly sad beyond belief. Talk about a “damn it!” moment.

    one of the best direct to video horror movies i’ve seen, though that isn’t really saying a lot is it? looking f-ing great and practical effects are disgusting. definitely not great but certainly above average. stupid fun.

    This movie was RIDICULOUS. It was a joke. I like the first one a WHOLE lot better. The only thing it had in common with the first one was that it was gross…not scary just gross.

    I loved the first one. This one however not so much. The only thing it has going for it is the gore. There are some great gore scenes. The story is terrible, and the acting not so great. It’s worth watching for the gore if you’re into that sort of thing like me.

    Oh my god, what the fuck was I thinking? The first Cabin Fever was pretty decent. I saw the trailer of Cabin Fever 2 and it looked pretty good. Plus, I actually wanted to know what was going to happen with that truck full of infected water. It ended up at a high school and is used to make the punch for prom night. The idea sounded pretty cool as did the idea of seeing every person in the school infected with this horrific disease. BUT, why the hell would water be shipped to a school, only for it to be standing out in the hallway for students to grab and drink from? How did the tainted water get past the filtration plants? Absolutely stupid. The characters were very unlikeable and got annoying to a certain extent. What really pissed me off were the really dumb scenes, which were all over this stinking cow of a film. I don’t care if it was just meant to be mindless and gory, there’s a limit for this. It just became utter stupidity. Really, all hell is breaking loose and everyone has been puking blood for a long time, yet in the midst of this you see a couple making out then suddenly simultaneously vomiting projectile blood into each other’s mouths! Really dumb attempt at a horror-comedy. You want excellent horror-comedy? Watch Shaun of the Dead instead, it’s fantastic. Here’s another dumb scene from Cabin Fever 2 (SPOILERS). When John found out he was infected after noticing the sore on his arm and went with Cassie to cut his arm off with a buzzsaw, she just carelessly lets John’s infected blood spray all over her. The kiss between them? I can’t even begin to believe that.(SPOILERS end) The disease in the first movie was actually pretty terrifying and the way it progressed was pretty intense. All you have in this movie is just projectile puking of blood and pus-filled sores on the skin. Isn’t the disease supposed to be flesh-eating like in the original? The only thing that was slightly, and I mean SLIGHTLY good about this travesty was the gore, the opening sequence, and the ending credits. The gore is brought in spades. This time it’s just to gross the audience out, and it does a good job at that. The animated opening sequence, while unbelievably stupid, did have a disturbing feel to it because of the music playing. The first part of the ending credits has a close-up of skin progressively rotting, which is also disturbing. The movie feels so unfinished. The ending? Now that is seriously one of the worst endings I’ve ever seen in a movie. This movie was horrible in almost every aspect. No wonder Ti West disowned this rubbish and didn’t want his name to be in it. Steer clear away from this steaming pile of crap!

    When a movie essentially disowned by it’s director it sends up huge red flags. When it’s the sequel to one of the most revered independent horror films of the last decade and still can’t find it’s way to store shelves for two years after completing shooting, the film should come with a disclaimer before the film that reads : “Don’t Watch This Film.” Fortunately for “Cabin Fever 2″, despite the warning signs, there are enough redeeming qualities for the average horrorphile to find the film a worthwhile watch.
