Cabin Fever is a series of American comedy horror films, including the original theatrical release, two straight-to-home media releases with a sequel and a prequel that both received limited theatrical releases, and one theatrical remake. Created by Eli Roth, the plot centers around groups of people who contract an extremely deadly flesh-eating disease, and their attempts to survive its symptoms.

The original film was met with a generally mixed critical reception,[1] though it was deemed a success at the box office.[2] The second installment received an even more derived critical response,[3] and though it earned less than its predecessor it earned a profit for the studios.[4] The prequel film was released to negative reviews,[5] and its monetary statistics indicate that it earned the studio income through home video sales.[6] The 2016 remake received the least positive reception of the entire franchise,[7] considered to be inferior to the original, and also performed poorly financially.[8]
