After reading reviews before this film was released, I was somewhat excited by the premise that finally a director was going to take horror back to the glory days of the early 80's. I was SADLY mistaken.
Cabin Fever was a horrible attempt by Director Eli Roth, and just a downright bad movie. I felt embarrassed and foolish upon leaving the theater. Old school 80's films like Friday the 13th should take Cabin Fever as a smack in the face and a childish insult for even trying to associate itself with that era.
The ridiculous humor was much too far over the top, and the plot and believability of this film was simply a joke. The ending of this film, with the surviving actor proudly proclaiming that "he made it" then only to be eliminated was just to much to take and a sour and ridiculous end to an already terrible film. Then to top matters off, the credits roll to a scene featuring some comical Hillbilly's with totally over the top country violin music playing in the background that begs you to ask yourself "what in the world I'm I doing in this theater watching this disgusting dog poop of a mess". I feel horrible...and should be slapped for ever stepping foot into the theater in the first place.
Let this be known, I absolutely love "GOOD or even TOLERABLE" horror film, and Cabin Fever is a disgrace to the industry.

Like others who have commented on this movie, I saw One Dark Night at the movie theater when I was a youngster. For a reason I can't seem to put my finger on, this film captured me and has stayed with me through the years. From time to time I love to "go back in time" and view this film over and over again. Right of the bat, I will say that some people may not care for this movie due to it's old school feel and cinematography; but for me it's a movie that I've always cherished and will always hold a special place in my heart.
This movie has a certain bizarre and eerie feel to it that will give you the creeps, and as a matter of fact One Dark Nights oddity and unorthodox flavor is one of the reasons I'm so taken in by it. I'm certainly old school, and I feel like current horror movies have lost the feel and authenticity that some older films seem to have. One Dark Night certainly brings that "certain" flavor.
One Dark Night is the type of movie that would be perfect to watch on a rainy late evening or on Halloween night. I guess you could say it's a cinematic example of what Halloween is all about. It's has lots of spooky elements you look for in horror films: The atmospheric dark Mausoleum, Telekinesis, Gothic funeral procession, sad and thought provoking letters left by children of the dead, spooky graveyard and coroner scenes, a very odd and eerie scene of crime where 6 dead girls are found with a chilling open eyed gaze. It's just good old school horror, they just don't make them like this any more. I also have to give kudos to the background music or the score that's used throughout the film, it's helps the viewers experience. Much more so than I think people realize, the score is a compelling and powerful component that richly adds to the movies effectiveness and brings forth mood which is essential to any good horror film.
The casting in this film also came off(sort of in a unexpected way) very well. Adam West, who played Batman in the original series in the 60's adds to this films folklore. Meg Tilly plays her part very well and has a "look" about herself that seems tailored for a horror movie. The 3 prankish teen girls who were in the High School Sorority clique called "The Sisters "were perfectly casted; including one Sister who always gnawed and chewed on a toothbrush, even up to the point of her demise.....gimmicky indeed. It's finer elements like these that seem to endure me to the film.
Scenes at the end where Raymar tortures members of "The Sisters" in the Mausoleum with corpses could be viewed as silly but still some how manages to come over as okay and tolerable. The movie One Dark Night is currently out of print and could be considered rare. Although some may not agree, I consider the film to be a classic example of the genre. If you are a horror buff like myself, I would recommend this movie, you just may find it to be a keeper, and like it for its odd,creepy terror.

The Wood is a very pleasurable and funny film that takes me back in time to my younger years. I was a teenager growing up in the same time period and era that this movie is centered upon. This movie was so cool to me because it was like a flashback of my childhood. All of the events that Roland,(Taye Diggs)Mike,(Omar Epps)and Slim (Richard T Jones) had happen to them were occurrences we all can relate too.
Certainly as a male, I can recall getting a "hard on"(erection) at exactly the wrong time, I remember how scared one can become sitting in class watching the clock knowing you will be involved in a fight after school lets out;and as funny as this scene was portrayed in the movie, believe me it wasn't funny at the time. As testosterone induced youngsters we also conjured up enough boldness to pinch and grab the rear end of the female we had a crush on during recess at school. The Wood should be considered as like the Adolescent Bible, I mean it has all the Rites of Passage that we go through growing up.
Sequences in the movie scream out references to 80's culture like; the music played throughout,Slims hilarious jerri curl,also the fashion statements and the dances that were out at the time. Undoubtedly another of the plots main focuses was on new and early experiences in how young males handle puberty and females. We all wondered about our first sexual experience, the first dance with hot female stud muffin we dreamed about, how awkward and weird it feels putting on a condom in front of a girl the first time.
The Wood served it's purpose. In a well depicted and comical way, this movie takes us back to the days of old, but instead of whatever home town you may be from, The Wood gives it to us Inglewood California style. It doesn't matter though, The Wood makes it apparent that things are the same no matter what place you may call home. A very refreshing movie and a definite thumbs up.
