The spoiler-filled photo was taken by a cast member on their last night of shooting and posted via Twitter late last night.
In the sequel to Eli Roth’s classic, “When a cruise ship in the Caribbean collides with an abandoned research vessel, a deadly virus is unleashed.

Get Infected With The Market Trailer For ‘Cabin Fever: Patient Zero’
With AFM just a month away The Indomina Group has released a market promo for Cabin Fever: Patient Zero, being directed by Altitude‘s Kaare Andrews. There’s nothing really there as it’s more of a sales trailer without any actual footage from the film (as it’s just now behind cameras).
From a screenplay penned by Jake Wade Wall (The Hitcher), “The story kicks off when a bachelor party cruise in the Caribbean unexpectedly runs ashore on a medical-research island and a deadly virus is unleashed. The passengers must struggle to find a way to survive before their own demons and the flesh-eating bacteria consumes them all.” Sean Astin, Brando Eaton, Lydia Hearst, Gillian Murray, Ryan Donowho, Mitch Ryan all star.
