Eli Roth's very fun horror movie Cabin Fever was released in theaters just 11 years ago. And now it's getting a full reboot. Because there are no more ideas left.
Cabin Fever was so successful it inspired Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever (was directed by Ti West) and Cabin Fever: Patient Zero (which will premiere on June 26th). But according to Bloody Disgusting, the fourth film in the series may be scrapped in favor of a full reboot.
Which means we'll get a whole new crop of kids, in a whole new cabin, with a whole new flesh-eating disease. Seems a bit early for a full reboot of a movie that is basically just a viral spin on the classic "kids in a cabin" horror trope. But hey when you have a good idea, let's just beat it to death until the splattered remains of your love has lost all meaning. Amirite?

Cabin Fever was one of the few movies in my whole live that I've walked out of theater.
