5 out of 5 positive with an average of 7.8. If you add uncounted ones, it's 9 out of 9 with an average of 8.0.

Cabin Fever had 63% on RT, but still, that's damn good so far.

Cabin Fever was crap. What were critics smoking when they gave the movie high marks. Alot of the stuff didnt make sense and what the hell was that montage with the mullet kid doing karate moves, yelling out he wants pancakes and biting the guys finger

I think he meant Cabinboy was a gem, not Cabin Fever. I do agree with Cabinboy

It'll go down to being Rotten, is my guess.

Not too rotten, but rotten none the less.

I want to see it but I expect critics to end up hating more than liking it. Ebert will likely give it zero stars, just like Wolf Creek. The guy doesn't have a clue about horror films.

I'm surprised by how many people want to see this one. I could see it being The Grude to Saw II's Ring.

Thats kind of how I feel. I feel this wont be the last time we will see many Saw type rip offs popping up on screen till one of them bombs. I just hope that the executioner in Hostel doesnt ask request for last meal for his victims and one of them replies "Pancakes"

Loved Cabin Fever 8/10 (B+) and I cant wait for Hostel Eli Roth seems to be a promising Director in the horror genre.

I've been seeing more commercials for this and I believe it has a chance at $50 million, maybe even more. Hopefully it will surprise a lot of people and make more than Saw II, but I doubt it. $30 million and above would be quite a profit for the studio. There's no way this film will bomb.
