The director wanted his name taken off the film because he felt the end product was a reflection of producer interference.
Watch the new remastered Cabin Fever when it gets re-released.

Thanks for the warning. I will try and steer clear of this steaming pile of poop.

From the way you describe it, it sounds like it is like Hostel. Hostel had no plot to speak of and was just a way to show as much gore as possible(the train part? Come on! I can suspend my belief for a movie, but that was way too far-fetched!). And they made a Hostel 2? Ugh.

Less than two weeks to wait for the movie premier of the decade.

It may have ended up being that way since it had so much graphic content in it. It certainly sounded like it would be a good movie, but I never heard any comments about it.

No, a theatrical release on March 26. I saw a preview at the cinema when I went to see Sherlock Holmes around Christmas time.

You know, the cinema. The big room where they show movies on a big white screen. I heard they have a few of those in the greater Moose Plop, Ontario, metropolitan area, or wherever the hell you live.

It's got John Cusack -- a real movie star.

Have you seen some of the movies John Cusack has been in? No guarantees with him, but I do enjoy the majority of movies I've seen him in. I cannot recall the name of the movie, but there is one where he takes the engine from the sports car of the "preppy jerk" and uses it on the group's boat to win the race. It was kind of cheesy(typical 80's fluff), but I enjoyed it.

Is that "Grandview, U.S.A"? I can't remember for sure. But he's made some really fine films, such as "Being John Malkovich," "Say Anything," "Eight Men Out," "Bullets Over Broadway, "High Fidelity" (my personal favorite), etc.

Nice dodge of the rest of my comment, my friend.

Yes, it was.

The movie I am thinking of is none of the ones mentioned. Summer School? Does that sound familiar? It could be that, but I am not certain.

The only John Cusack movie I ever liked was Gross Pointe Blank and I liked it mostly for Minnie Driver.

She would make one lovely tranny...

Funny you should mention Hostel , since Eli Roth directed both Cabin Fever and Hostel 1-2. Cabin Fever 1 = good.

Didn't he also have something to do with the first Saw movie as well?

Cabin Fever 1 I enjoyed. Hostel sucked big-time, and I have no desire to even attempt to watch Hostel 2.

No connection to Saw as far as i know , at least not as a producer or director. Eli may have hyped the movie in interviews.

I wish he would turn his Grindhouse faux trailer "Thanksgiving Day" into a feature , a Thanksgiving slasher film has never been done. I liked the twist at the end of Hostel 2.

Since I will never watch Hostel 2(or will at least try not to), you can tell me what the twist is. Better to tell me in the PM though, so no one else gets spoiled(on the off chance that someone will actually want to see the movie).

Check your pm.

And the movie w/ John Cusack and the boat was "One Crazy Summer".

It had a unique cast , Demi Moore , Bobcat Goldthwait , Curtis Armstrong , Jeremy Piven , John Murray.
Fave scene is when Bobcat get's stuck in the Godzilla costume.

Now I remember "One Crazy Summer." It's quite a hoot.
