| eFilmCritic.comBrian MckayA skin-crawling, gut-busting, Karo-syrup covered good time ... can have you falling out of your seat with laughter one minute and wincing in disgust the next - or both simultaneously. |
| Film ThreatEric CamposGory, scary, smart and funny, this is definitely one of the best horror films Ive seen in years. |
| Slant MagazineEd GonzalezFeverish political and religious allegories aside, audiences will likely be drawn more to the film's liberal bloodletting. |
| About.comFred TopelThere is some good nudity, which used to be a staple of horror movies. And bravo to the film for turning that voyeurism right back on us and showing one of the most cringe-worthy gore pieces during a gratuitous bathtub scene. |
| Denton Record-ChronicleBoo AllenScarier than Ann Coulter but a lot more fun. |
| Film BlatherEugene NovikovPlenty of fun, but I found myself wishing it was more horror and less comedy. |
| Minneapolis Star TribuneColin CovertHorror fans will cherish Cabin Fever, and stout-hearted movie lovers in general would be wise to scope it out even if they have to peek between their fingers. |
| Eclipse MagazineSean O'ConnellSo clearly constructed for home video worship, (it) should go directly to the shelves so fanatics can start establishing midnight screenings in their darkened basements. |
| Baltimore SunMichael SragowCabin Fever may not be a horror classic, but it's definitely an ideal midnight movie. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Rick GroenSo this is a first-level, unironic fright film, the sort whose tongue is removed from its cheek, coated in gore, and pointed right at the audience. |
