It never occurred to me that there should be a sequel to “Cabin
Fever” because what could they possibly add to the story? It turns out that
there is nothing to add, only more scenes of the infection affecting people in
different surroundings. Like a high school prom. Why not? Well, because that
would be a lame idea; the infection takes time to spread and develop. Of course
but not in sequel land! Here the infection takes a matter of minutes, 30 to 60
or so, before you see it and get killed by it. So freaking lame!
It is fun to see Winston again, this time a little bit more
on the ball and slowly aware of what’s going on. Besides that….not too much
more to root for in this film directed by Ti West. Even Mr. West has distanced
himself from the movie after re-shoots and re-editing were performed after he
submitted a final version. I’ll sit through a showing of his version if it
ever becomes available but I’m not really expecting much of a saving grace from
that movie either. After all, he wrote the script as well...
