10 More Terrifying Vacation Horror Movies
7. Cabin Fever
The 2000s seemed to have an unhealthy obsession with torturing tourists, didn't it? Seems like it was an irrevocably dire decade for anyone taking trips abroad, or even to a subdued, peaceful summer camp setting in the not so great outdoors. Which is exactly where our seventh entry is taking us.
One exception that distinguishes Cabin Fever from its surrounding competition prospers all the more for it is its predominant focus on body horror. As opposed to the incestuous, mutated, mutilated or just sadism and maliciousness we've come to expect. While it does imbue a couple of those factors, for once, the killer is the most natural - and invisible - of all organisms, and its one that infects your body, before effecting it as it scours around your body like a plague of locusts descending on the harvest.
The harbinger of death in this film could be hiding under any leaky faucet, living on the bark of a tree or even parasitically capitulating itself onto your closest compadre.
The terror of Cabin Fever is indeed infectious.
